COMMANDMENT OF PETROGRAD HEARD
 AND PANIC AMONG
 REDS IS REPORTED
B0lsheviki Threaten to Exc cute Burge0is Class if They Are Compelled to Leave the Former Russian
 Capital
av A.soo,at,a Prs.


 Stockholm, May 27.-The sound of a heavy bombardment has been heard within the last few days in the. direction of Petroe-ad and Kronstadt. ac- cording to advices received from Viborg.
 The advices report a panic among the bolshevik leaders in Petrograd, a number of whom, it is asserted, have fled with state funds.
 Petrograd. according to the report, is in the hands of Chinese, Lett and Finnish reds, who are said to have mastered the soviet authorities after heavy street fighting. Workmen are patroI}ing the workmen's district to prevent the Chinese from pillaging.
 The bolsheviki have placarded the city, threatening to execute the bour- Eeois class if they are compelled to leave the former capital.

PROGRESS|VES ARE ROUTED IN EFFORT
 ID DUST PENR0SE
 AND QUIT FIGHT
Election of Penrose and Warren Today as Chair men Finance and Appro-
 priations Committees
 Is Regarded Certain
By Associated Press

Washington, May 27.-Elec- tion by the Senate tomorrow of Senators Penrose of Pennsyl- vania and Warren of Wyoming as chairman of the finance and appropriations committees, re- spectively, is regarded certain as a result of the open confer ence today of republican sen ators.
 The progressives, led by Senator Borah, Idaho. were routed hy vote of SS to in their effort to supplant Sen- ator Penrose, and in private statements later agreed that their fight would not be taken to the Senate floor.
 Republican Leader Lodge plans to pre- sent in the Senate tomorrow the repub- llcan committee assignments, with pros- poets of solid vote of the republican majority for their adoption.
 The committee nominations are to be inaoe en mase, but the republican plan or avoiding separate vote for chair manships, required by Senate rules was threatened tonight by opposing deno- crats, who were said to be prepared to demand separate votes on the chairman ships so as to require the progressives 10 record themselves squarely on Sen ators Penrose and Warren.
 BORAH PRINCIPAL CRITIC
 At the republican conference today Sem ator Borah made the principal address in criticism of Senator Penrose, who was not present, declaring that the progress sives' opposition was not personal, but based on Mir. Penrose's views of finance. senator Borah also spoke briefly against the Pennsylvania senator, while Senators Spencer, Missouri, and Gronna, North Dakota, the only other speakers, urged party solidarity in organizing the Sem ate, declaring financial questions were not involved in partisan committee organiza- tion
 The effort of Senator Borah to strike Penrose's name from the list of the com mittee on finance was supported by Sem ators Cummins of Iowa. Johnson, Cali fornia; Kenyon, Iowa; Lenrott Wiscon- son; Mccormick, Illinois, and McNary, Oregon, and Borah. Senators who have been opposing Senators Penrose and Warren and who are absent are Jones, Washington; Kellogg, Minnesota, and Norris
 Other absentees were Ball, Delaware; Curtis, Kansas; LaFollette, Wisconsin. and Penrose.
 With rejection of Senator Borah's mo- tion, the progressives did not press their opposition to Senator Warren and the committee schedule, approved at yester- days conference, was adopted without a roll call. Senator Borah stated after the conference. which was the first open meeting ever held by the republicans on party organization, that he expected the entire committee slate would be adopted tomorrow Although not bound by the conference vote, he said the progressives planned to vote for the committee slate to insure republican control.

Mystify Washingtonians.

Thurston. the famous magician,
who will appear at the Shubert Gar
rick Theater this week, starting to-
night, is the only magician in twenty
Ave years who has appeared on Broad
way, New York He recently closed
a season Of two months at the Globe
Theater.
There is no form Of entertainment
which has a more universal appeal
than an exhibition Of mystery and in
the coming of Thurston theatergoers
will be treated to the best there is in
the line of magic. He Is the only
magician of note today and is re-
garded as the legitimate successor
to the honors and prestige OF Herr
mann and the great Kellar.
Many a tired business man or busy
house mother will be routed out Of
their easy chairs and sent wondering
of to the theater surrounded by a
brood of youngsters determined to
bring home either a pigeon or a rab-
bit as present from Thurston. For
thirteen years he has stood alone in
his peculiar profession, and his
popularity is readily understood after
seeing one Of his performances.
