$1,000 Bolsl1evik
Troops Captlured;
Ienine Gets Away

VLAD1VOSTOK Dec. 80 BY The As
the Ural mountains, General Gaida, at
the head Of Czech -Slovak and Siberian
forces, virtually destroyed the Boil
shevik third amy, from which he took
81, 900 prisoners. General Gaida's
troops captured an armored train from
which Nikolai Lenine, the Bolshevik
Premier, was directing operations in
the region of Perm. Lenine himself
escaped, but several members of his
party were captured.
The exploit of General Gaida in capt
uring Perm parallels his success in the
campaign of last summer. His supe-
riors opposed his plan of attack
against Perm and he carried out the
operation at. the risk of removal from
his command. The bulk of his force
was made up of Siberian troops, but
he had two regiments of Czechs.
Takes Vast Amount of Booty
In addition to the 1000 prisoners
reported, General Gaida captured s.
600 railway cars, 100 field guns,
1000 machine guns, thirty auto
mobiles, an entire wagon transport,
several armored trains and several
thousand horses.
HIS manpuvre was a complete sur
prise to the Bolsheviki, as was proved
by the fact that he captured several
prominent Soviet leaders at the head
quarters of the Third Bolshevik Army
Ten Bolshevik regiments are declared
to have been annihilated and the rest
of the enemy army was driven across
the Kama river.
Troops of General Semenoff, the anti
Bolshevik leader in the Chita district
have occupied Verkhni Udinsk, on the
Siberian railway. east of Lake Baikal.
Bolsheviki Break Jail
Two hundred thousand Russian sol
diers released from German prisons
are expected to pass through Omsk
within a fortnight The Russians are
destitute and in serious condition
from exposure and lack of food.
Bolshevik sympathizers carried out
a jail delivery on the night of Deem
Der q, at Omsk, capital of the Pro-
visional Russian government, and re-
leased 205 prisoners, including mem
bers of the Boshevik Constituent As
scmb!y. according to delayed advices
reaching here from Omsk After a
Bolshevik meeting early in the evening
had been dispersed by the military
police, the Bolsheviki succeeded with
the connivance of non commissioned
officers of the guard in gaining an en-
trance into the provincial prison. In
cluded in those released were 1874 po-
htical prisoners.
Twelve soldiers were court martialed
and Shot by the Omsk government for
completely in the affair.

Interests United
To Preserve Peace

Such league would differ from the
balance of power because it would be
a community of interests in the pres
ervation of peace based upon right
and justice, not a mere equipoise ere
ated by the coincidence of equal forces.
Such league would secure the world
from any future project for world
domination, such as the Pan German
League. 1t would keep smaller powers,
whose ethical conceptions are less high
ly developed, from those small conflicts
which in the past have often been
the prelude of great wars.
But until such league, by its exist
ence and character, shall have demon
strated not only the safety of Great
Britain, but America as we'll, from all
possible aggression the seas cannot
safely be left free to an enemy in time
of war any more than can the land
When President Wilson assured
Clemenceau that he would not have
him alter his attitude toward Lloyd
George on this subject, it is possible
that he had in mind the requirements
of existing conditions, while the prin-
ciple of the freedom of the seas, in
Guided in his fourteen points, referred
to an ideal of the future, when call

organized strength might permit it to
make mischief in the world.

that returning Russian prisoners of

Of the Bolsheviki is reported on the

PARIS, Jan. 1.--President Wilson left

London ''Times'' Says
Wilson Seeks Same
Result as CIe.w enceas.

LONDON. Jan. 3 Comparing the
speech of Premier Clemenceau before
the French Chamber of Deputies and
President Wilson's address at Man
chester, THE Times" argues there is no
fundamental discrepancy between the
aims of the two men. The newspaper
says:
CAL that NJ. Clemenceau says of the
observation-disclosures we may call it
between the positions Of France and
America is simple truth France sees
and feels what a German invasion
means, and demands absolute security
against a recurrence of the danger she
so narrowly escaped and the sufferings
she yet endures.
Mr.. Wilson is equally determined to
deliver her from those evils. Where
NJ. Clemenceau appears most markedly
to differ from Mr.. Wilson is in his con-
fession Of certain skepticism as to the
adequacy of any means except one to
secure the just claims of France
"There is no incompatibility between
Mr.. Wilson's ideal and the more prosaic
immediate object which NJ. Clemenceau
sets before France. One is a necessary
stage to the attainment of the other
A supremely important fact is that
both admittedly desire the same imme-
uidte steps ana DOIn-alDelt one with
confidence and the other with hesitation
look forward to the same ultimate
goal. 1t is promising feature of the
attitudes of the two statesmen that
neither affects to entertain eXtravagant
hopes.'
The newspaper regards President
Wilson's suggestion as to the machin-
cry for subsequent establishments the
most valuable and important of his
recent utterances and contends that
only by some methods as those advo-
Gated by Mr.. Wilson and by continuous
conferences can "the burdens of the
partnership between American and
Europe be discharged and borne"

FranceImporting Much Food
Meat viii Be Restricted Further

PARIS, Jan Food conditions in
France will improve considerably in the
near future, declares Victor Boret, the
Food Minister, in an interview in the
"Matin"
However, new restrictions will be
imposed on the consumption of meat
because of the necessity of restocking
herds in the liberated regions and the
loss of some British tonnage used in
transporting frozen meat.
The sugar ration, the Minister
added, will be increased shortly Large
quantities of coffee are now on the wav
from Brazil. Butter is being imported
Samples from Argentine show the DUAL
lty to be excellent. In spite Of the
transportation expense, this butter will
be cheaper than that sold at present.
Regulations imposed on restaurants.

iorated shortly.
