Vivid Picture Of Russia

Andrew Soutar, the London Times
PUBLIC LEDGER correspondent, on
Thursday returned to London from the
north Russian front. He gives the fol-
lowing picture:
''The Bolshcvist sixth army, against
which we have been fighting, has not
been pulverized; indeed, it has seemed
to take to itself access of new strength
until we are in as bad n position (or
worse). as ever the old troops found
themselves.
''The revolt of Dyer's battalion marks
one of the most tragic episodes of this
exposition. Russian officers say that
we have not tried to understand the
Russian character, that we have been
theatrical in our efforts to overcome boil
shevism, and the murder of five British
officers by the mutineers is the natural
result of moral weakness.
'Dyer's battalion was composed OF
Bolshevist prisoners, and among them
were former Russian officers of pro
nounced Bolshevist views-men who
had served as commiSsarics in the red
army a month ago.
'When our command was sorely in
need Of soldiers and England did not
appear to be in any great hurry to
send out fresh troops General Irenside
conceived the idea of reasoning with
these prisoners, turning them from their
incinations. making soldiers of them
and persuading them to fight against
their late comrades.
''The Russians who criticize today
say that the idea was as theatrical and
utopian as bolshevism itself. The
general refused to believe that a little
perseverance would not achieve the re :
suits at which he aimed.

(The folloning cable dispatch toas
published in the Public ledger this
morning.)
London, July 25.-The British troops
200 miles south of Archangel are in a
precarious position, and there is a pos
sibility of their being surrounded and
captured by the Bolshevist red army.
The regiments under General Iron
side. said to include more than 5000
British, have n difficult problem before
them, as there are only two to three
feet of water in the Dvina river and the
gunboats are struck in the mud.
Red troops, driving east from Omega
and west from Pinega. are liable to
cut off the British directly south Of
Archangel. According to apparently re
liable reports, Russian regiments on the
Omega front, as well as those eastward
of Archangel, have gone over to the
Bolshevists.

Richbourg to Giants.

Two Brooklyn players. one a veteran
OF many baseball campaigns and the
other a promising youngster, have said
farewell to Uncle Wlbert Robinson
The two Dodgers who depart to pastures
new are Larry Cheney, the veteran spit
ball thrower. and Lance Richbourg the
promising young college infielder from
the South. Cheney goes to the Boston
Braves by the waiver route and Rich
bourg. whose services were claimed by
both Brooklyn and New York, has been
awarded to the Giants.
Most OF the baseball experts think the
Braves did wisely in refusing to waive
on Cheney. Larry suffered an attack OF
bronchitis at the flag end of the pitching
season and only recently regained his
normal physical condition. He pitched
splendid game last week. He should
win many games for the Braves
The controversy over the services of
Richbourg was decided by President
Heydler's vote Stoneham and Ebbets
were not eligible to vote. The only
other two members of the board OF d.
rectors, President Baker OF the Phillies
and Garry Hermann of the Reds. dis
agreed. President Heydler voted in IA

Though Possibly Not Flatterine
to the Good Man.

Little Caroline and her grandmother
went to church one Sunday morning,
recently. 1t had been some time since
the small lady had attended and things
and faces were new and strange.
After returning home she sat in a
quiet study.
"What are you thinking of, dear7"
grandma asked.
"Who was that fluffy man?" was the
reply.
"What man, pet? I do not know
which one you mean."
"That man. I mean," Caroline said
with an indignant frown.
II can't tell, dear, which one that
is"
WELL" said little Caroline, evident
ly fully disgusted. ~ mean the fluffy
nm that talks while we keep STILL"
The pastor happened to be rather
short, stout man with a good supply
Of hair, and this was her unusual way
OF describing him.
