 FOOLS COSSACK
 ARMY AT S0UMY

SOUMY, Southern Russia,--(By MaiD--This important city, halfway between Kharkov and TZernigov, has been captured by the Denekine's vol unteer army, but the hope of the Cossacks that with it they would capture the notorious Syneko, calle1 "The Gorilla of the Reds," was not realized. Three days before the city fell he had been ordered to Moscow by Trotzky.
 To the American Red Cross men who are engaged in relief work in the rear of Denikine's advancing army, the story of Syrenko was told on the first day of their arrival in Kharkov. Evidence of Syenko's madness met them on all sides.
 Syenko was a carpenter of KharkOg, who was made chief torturer and executioner in that city of 800.Q00 people, for the six months of the Red administration. It is alleged that he organized a band of Chinese tor turers and devised extreme crueltics.
 At the fall of Kharkov he was sent to Sounly where he continued his work of terrorism.
 The fact that he was known lo be in Soumy inspired the Cossacks with special eagerness to capture

LONDON,-(By MaiD Nearly ev cry industry in Great Britain not ia yored by the protection of import restrictions is trying to have itself keyed" A "key" industry is one essential to British industry and con sidered so affected by he war that it must be nursed back to health thru the medium of government assistance.
 The government did not remove import restrictions September l, on products manufactured by so-callad British key industries. The majority fl manufacturers forced into competi- ton by removal of the restrictions believed their industry should have )een in the favored list.
 Among these are the automobile men who have protested vigorously against American machines coming into England with a duty of B 1-3 percent. British manufacturers ad- init they cannot produce cars any thing like the amoul. nerde'i within many months 70 the board of trade so ia has turn-G dcat caf !u 'h"ir protestations. In the meantime American cars are increasing in num- Der on London's streets and one American firm advertises delivery within forty-eight hours after order taken"
 Duty, the difference in exchange and freight charges raises the price of an American car in London to about double the price in the United States but that is not deterring the .Inglishmen from snapping them up as rapidly as they arrive.
