British to Treat
With Russia, Says
Moscow Dispatch
Curzon Reported to Have
Called for Direct Conver-
sations With Gen. Wrangel,
Who Will Share i'm Parley

LONDON, May 7--Great Britain is
on the eve Of negotiations with Soviet
Russia, Moscow wireless message
to-day asserts.
Earl Curzon, the British Foreign Sec
retary, the message says, has forward
ed to M. Tchitcherin, the Soviet Com
missary for Foreign Affairs, declara-
tion in which direct conversations with
General Wrangel, commander Of the
remnant of the Russian volunteer
army, are proposed. These conversa-
tions, it is declared, are desired by
Great Britain in order that definite
negotiations may be begun concerning
the cessation Of the Bolshevik advance
into the Crimea, and British officers
would participate in these negotiations.
NJ. Tchtcherin, continues the mes
sage, replied to the British communica-
tion with the statements that the Soviet
government was prepared to meet the
desire expressed in that communication
and enter into negotiations with the
British government, or any one that
government might indicate. concerning
the question Of hostilities in the
Crimean sector and that the Soviet was
prepared to admit General Wrangel, as
we'll as British officers, to these nego-
tiations.
Regarding the Caucasus front the
message states that hostilities have
ceased and that the Soviet has applied
to the governments Of the various
states offering to begin peace negotia-
tions Immediately. The Soviet promises
to take British government interests in
the Caucasus into consideration.
M. Tchitcherin in his reply it Is
added, expresses his firm assurance
that the agreement to begin peace nego-
tiations will serve as q preliminary
step and that a general agreement be-
be the final outcome.
A Foreign Office member. when shown
the Moscow statement, said NJ. Tchit-
cherin must have misinterpreted the
meaning of the recent British notes to
Russia. These notes, according to the
official, were confined to request for
amnesty for the men of General Deni-
kine's army, with the threat that there
would be no resumption Of economic re-
latlons If the request should not be
granted. England pointed out she
would agree that this be done through
General Wrangel, who succeeded Gen
eral Denikine as commander of the
Southern Russian forces, or any other
responsible leader, he added, but did
not mention other questions and did
not intimate that this exchange of
notes would lead to negotiations con-
corning other problems.

tion of an international commission

four hours. The battle for the posses
sion of the city is still raging, ac-
cording to latest dispatches.
The fighting is said to be particularly
severe northwest of the city, where the
Bolsheviki are using artillery stationed
just behind the front line intrench-
ments. Other heavy guns are stationed
in the bridgehead territory there and
are directing heavy fire against the
attacking Polish and Ukrainan troops.
1t is assumed the Soviet army is
bringing up artillery from east of the
Dnieper River, as shell fire is gradually
increasing as additional pieces are
placed in position. Railroad and high
way bridges in front Of Kiev were
destroyed by the retreating Bolsheviki,
but they are rapidly repaired by the
Poles.
Polish gains are reported along the
Dnicster River further south. Ukrain-
ian forces are driving southwark to-
ward Odessa, and are reported to have
captured the village of Kamionka.
