"A Anti-B0lsheuiki Forces Are
Near Petr0grad; W0rkingnlen
Glue Promise to Join Them

LOnQOn, Oct. l6.-General Yuden-
itch has captured Krasno Selo and
he met workingmen from the city
who asked that the Northwestern
Russian armv refrain from shelling
Petrograd and pledging, if this prom
Use was given, to- join the anti Boil
sheviki, according to a. Helsingfors
dispatch received here.
Sovfets Still Defend City.
London, Oct. 1S.-Forces of the
Soviet government of Russia are, ac-
cording to latest advices, still desper-
toward which anti-BolsheviK troops
have been advancing since October
H.. Confirmation of dispatches tell
ing of the fall of the former Russian
capital has not been received in off,
cial quarters here.
Over the whole situation around
Petrograd there is considerable OBJ
scurity, due to conflicting and contra
dictory reports and there seems to be
little doubt that the army command
ed by General Yudenitch is within
city, but the rapidity of its advance
during the first days of the offensive
does not seem to have been main
tanned.
=, General Yudenitch in his advance
has drawn his troops into a rough
.semi-circle from Krasnaia Gorka, on
the northwest, to Tsarskoe Selo
which is almost due south of Petro-
grad.
gg 1 Near Luga.
Further south the Yudenitch army
is said to have reached a. point near
the city of Luga. 80 miles distant from
Petrograd. Reports have been re-
ceived, however, that further advance
has been held yp along the railway
line connecting Gatchina and Pskov
on which Luga is situated. Along
this front severe fighting is said to
be in progress.
General Denikine appears to be ad-
vancing his left flank along the
Dnieper Valley, taken Chernigoff and
moving northward to Gomel, where
his Cossacks may join Polish forces
and present compact front to the
Soviet armies. If this junction is
made, the anti-Bolshevik line from
Petrograd to Orel, south of Moscow
would resemble a great horse show
enclosing the Bolsheviki
East of Orel and in the Don region
the .Bolsheviki are reported to be re.
treating all along the front. Denikine
troops have crossed the Don over 8
front 200 miles in length, it is
claimed.
Germano- Russian forces are said tt
be, holding the left bank of the lower
Duna river at Riga. Farther up the
stream indecisive fighting is reported

Republicans Object.

Washington, Oct. 1s.-Republicar
leaders declared emphatically today
that the senate would not consent to
participation by American representa-
tives in the League Of Nations or
other international commissions un-
til the peace treaty had been ratified
by the senate and specific laws enact
ed by congress authorizing such rep
resentatives and providing for their
expenses.
Opposition to premature participa-
ton of American representatives. these
leaders said, is so pronounced that a
new reservation declaring that APP
pointment of American, deleentes
shall await legislation by congress,
Is under consideration. The suggestion
for specific reservation on this point.
it was said has come generally from
the entire republican membership Of
the senate.
Todays reports from Paris regard
ing the American representatives
brought vigorous private criticism
from republican leaders Of the senate
and this was expected ito be renewed
later on the floor They declared ap-
pointment of American delegates be.
fore the senate acted on the treaty
would be an affront to the senate and
another usurpation of.power by the
executive branch of the government.
