government for use as a consulate,
to discuss the advisability of re-
naming in O-1sk should the Czecho-
Slovaks carry out their avowed in
tention to withdraw. None of US
at that time could believe it pos
sible for Admiral Kolchak and the
Siberian government to gather de-
pendable forces to replace the
Czechs and stem the tide Of Bolshev-
ism which threatened to engulf ST.
IBERIA once more the moment the
Czechs should leave.
AS in the early days Of the revolu-
tion, Admiral Kolchak's genius for
leadership again proved a decisive
factor. The scattered bands of Rus
sian troops in Western Siberia ral-
lied under that leadership and few
days later resolutely took the place
of the Czecho-Slovak soldiers at the
Siberian front. From this time on
ward the echo-Slovaks confined
their activities entirely to guarding
the Transsiberian Railway, their one
means of exit from Siberia. Ameri-
cans and other foreigners at that
time in Omsk were amazed at the
feat that Admiral Kolchak had ac-
complished. Nor is it surprising
that he at once became immensely
popular with US, for few days be-

Like John Paul Jones

This exploit of Admiral Kolchak
in the Black Sea parallels in Ameri
can history that of John Paul Jones,
who, in command of the wornout
French frigate Bon Homme Rich
ard, made short shrift of the British
line ship Scraps.
History also relates how the dis
orders of the Russian revolution of
1917 were stayed in the Black Sea
fleet for two months after the Rus
sian army had completely disinte
grated, due entirely to the influence
of Admiral Kolchak's personality
on his men. At length, when the
sailors Of the Black Sea fleet, driven
mad by the same pernicious German
propaganda which had destroyed the
Russian army, mutinied and began
killing their officers-frst breaking
their swords before their eyes and
tearing off their epaulettes - their

great respect for Admiral Kolchak
saved him from a similar fate. Gu
rlously enough, q short time later,
these same sailors, together with the
inhabitants of the Taurida govern
ment, elected him a member of the
nrst constituent assembly, the fate
of which is we'll known to the world.
1t was familiarity with these facts
in the career Of Admiral Kolchak
and knowledge of his thorough and
uncompromising political and pri-
vate honesty that decided the agi-
tated members of the directorate
and Council of Ministers to turn to
him in their dilemma. Admiral
kolchak was not in Omsk at the
time of the coup d'etat but at the
Siberian front, whittier he had gone
in the capacity of minister of war
to inspect the Czecho- -Slovak battal-
loas there. Accordingly they dis
patched an urgent telegram to him
informing him of the events which
had transpired and stated that ST.
IBERIA was doomed unless he could at
cnce return to Omsk, reform the
government and organize an effect
i've resistance to Bolshevism. Avk-
sentiev and Zenzinov were released
next day and given safe conduct out
of Siberia and the city OF Omsk re-

mained perfectly calm. Admiral
Kolchak returned post haste. His
great love for his motherland left
him no choice but to accept this
power and responsibility, which he
had not sought but would not now
attempt to evade-the almost super
human task of bringing order out
of chaos engendered by the duplicity
of Avksentiev and Zenzinov and
completed by the coup d'etat exc
cuted by Russian officers on No.
vember 18.
With characteristic promptness,
Admiral Kolchak set about at
once to reorganize the govern
ment which is now known as the
Siberian government and to create
Russian army which could replace
at the Siberian front the Czecho-
Slovaks, who since the signing Of
the armistice had been obsessed
with the one idea of returning to
their beloved Bohemia after four
years of unremitting toll and strug-
gle in Russia and Siberia. The
writer recalls how at this unsettled
time Consul General Harris held a
conference with his staff in the In
ternational Harvester Building at
Omsk, the Offices of which had been
turned over to the United States

The One Mar,
When Arnistice Came

One man and one only could be
found to whom the sober elements of
the all-Russian provisional govern
ment and these highly excited Rus
sian officers could agree to bequeath
the power of the expiring provis-
ional government and intrust with
the task of organizing a new gov.
ernment and creating a new army
That man was Admiral Alexander
Vasilivitch Kolchak, unquestionably
Russia's most popular hero of the
war - best known in the United
States for his brilliant action in the
Black Sea, where, upon the very day
of his arrival at Semferopal to take
command Of the Black Sea fleet, he
went out against the two German
battleships, Breslau and Cohen, and
did not return until he had cleared
the Black Sea Of those two no.
torlous pirates. The achievement
was made more noteworthy by the
fact that up to the time of Admiral

ficer-was made in company with
Consul General Harris shortly after
the admiral's return to Omsk in re-
sponse to the telegram already re-
ferred to, which caused him to
undertake the reorganization of the
Siberian government. He received
us in the immense Railway Admins
tration Building at Omsk which had
been taken over by the Siberian
army and which was at that time
his official residence. The admiral
sat behind a massive, severely plain
oak desk in spacious though scam

floor. He was dressed in a uniform

ment was forcibly impressed upon
me by my friend Mr.. Adam Leya, Of
Omsk, longtime Russian represent
ative of the International Harvester
Company, and who at the present
time, in addition to his duties
with the company, is honorary
treasurer of the western division of
the American Red Cross in Siberia.
Mr.. Leya stated that although he
had never taken part in public life.
yet as an intelligent and patriotic
Russian citizen he had closely stud
led the events in Siberia since the
1917 revolution, and that. having
known the black despair of Bolshe-
vism, he was once more filled with
hope by the wise and sound admin
lstration of Admiral Kolchak, which
presaged to him that Russia would
soon master the forces of disorder
within her borders. He declared un-
reservedly that Notwithstanding the
lncompleteness of the reorganization
of Siberia's economic and political
! life which Admiral Kolchak and his
government have undertaken, ST.
IBERIA at the present moment is en-
joying the best government it has
ever had in all its history.
New-York tribune., 1919-07-13

@Y A CURIOUS coincidence I
arrived at Omsk on Novem-
~ ber 18, 1918, the eventful
day that Admiral Alexander
vasilivitch Kolchak was called to
the head of the so-called all-Russian
Provisional Government. had come
from Irkutsk in company with Con-
sui General E. L. Harris to establish
q United States consulate at Omsk.
During the following six months
/ held the post Of United States
consul at Omsk and was in daily
contact with the government there,
which, after the coup d'etat that
occurred on November 18, became
known as the Siberian government.
The three weeks preceding my
departure on May 4 for the United
States were spent in visiting the
southern sector Of the Siberian
front. I have set down my impress
sions Of the Siberian government; :;
Kolchak, its recognized head, and
the stirring events which transpired
in Siberia during my tenure of
Office as United States consul at
Omsk.
In September, 1918, Siberia had
been cleared of the Bolsheviki by
the Czecho-Slovaks. Scattered mem
bers Of the former constituent as
sembly, which had been dispersed at
.Petrograd in January of that year
by Bolshevik bayonets, assembled in
convention at Ufa, a Russian city
near the Siberian border.
This convention gave birth to the
so-called all-Russian provisional
government. The executive powers
OF this government lay in the hands
CT directorate consisting of five
men: Avksentiev, Socialist, presi-
dent of the directorate; Zenzinov
and Vologodsky, Socialists; Vino
gradov, Constitutional Democrat,
and Boldyriev, non-party. In this
government Admiral Kolchak was
given the portfolio of minister of
war. A short while after the incep-
ton of the all-Russian provisional
government its residence was
changed from Ufa to Omsk.
