ARCHAEGEL, Feb ,delayed) ,--Ad
vices TO the Allied Intelligence Depart
ment reveal some of the methods by
which the BolsheVlsts have. been able
to organize their army in such a way
as TO make possible the carrying on OF
strong campaign in northern Russia
The principle OF these methods, accord
ing to Information received from the in
terror. lies in compelling the generals
and staff officers in the old Russian
army to serve the Bolsheyists by hold
ing their families as hostages for the
officers conduct. Cases have occurred of
officers families being placed under
close arrest. the women being treated
as badly as the men.
The position OF former Russian off,
GERS in the ranks of the Soviet army is
extremely difficult They occupy posts
as commanding officers and are trusted
IN all technical matters but In regard
10 everything else are under constant
suspicion and are controlled by Bolshe-
visit commissioners who are perma-
nently attached to the army and even
controi the carrying out of operations.
Leon Trotzky, the Bolshevist Minister
OF War and Marine, has issued an or
der that families OF officers who desert
TO the Allies are to be held responsible
and will be prosecuted in some cases
Military experts who have been forced
to serve the Bolshevists include some
of tho best men in field tactics, enRi-
reering and ordnance to be found in
central Russia.
General mobilization OF soldiers in all
districts is being vigorously carried out.
and all attempts to avoid service are be-
ing severely dealt with The training OF
the Bolshevist army is being assisted by
special schools Of instruction at Petro-
grad and Moscow for all non-commis-
stoned officers and men belonging to the
Bolshevlst party.
Generally. the army is growing
stronger. and although the new troops are
far from being reliable. yet owing TO
the severe methods which have been
adopted they form the main strength OF
Bolshevbt power,
II is said that this apparent increase
in military strength has been taken by
many to indicate that Bolshevist idea
are gaining favor with the population
but this IL by no means true, The ma
jority Of the people are anti Bolshevist
but are afraid TO express their opinions
The entire strength OF the Rolshevists, II
Is averred, rests on their institution of
red terror.

LONDON, Feb. a. - The industrial
troubles Of Great Britain seriously
threaten the entire transport services
Of the country, and the situation. which
gradually IS becoming worse. to-day is
causing dismay and uneasiness among
all those concerned in public services.
The demand Of the electrical traie
union for a forty hour week in all
trades. under threat to cut OF the
electrical supply OF London, can fairly
be stated as an ultimetum to the Gov
ernment. which hitherto has refused to
negotiate in regard to hours OF labor
but is discussing the demand OF some

A dsquieting phase Of the struggle is
the closing by the electricians OF the
great power house in Chelsea which
provides electricity for all the under
ground railways except the Metropolitan. n.
A number OF the tram services in the
outer London district which utilize both
steam and electricity have been relying
for some hours on steam alone.
AS result of this expedient the
locomotive drivers now have been called
out by their union. which declares It
will call a national strike II the mems
demands are refused.
This would make possible a call upon

IN a genera! way the Government has
decided to maintain its policy OF non-in-

trade unions, but at the same time d.

malcontent workers to see the advisa-

trade representatives

from the Government. but was warned
that II the men continued their present
course thus putting the whole commun-
