TRAVELLERS ARE
 WARNED TO MAKE
 RESERVATIONS

London, Feb. - Amercans who contemplate coming to England this spring or summer, and Londoners ex- pect there will be thousands of them should be definitely assured before leaving that hotel accommodations have been arranged, say the hotel managers. Otherwise it is probable they may be unable to find a place to stay, particularly in London.
 It will be difficult for London to handle a great influx of people this summer, s-ty the Tpanagers, and they expect many disapp among Americans who even attempt to ar- range accomm odations some time ahead of arrival The better hotels of the city can not find room for more than 4,o0O at one time, they are full now and many people have en- gagged rooms months ahead.
 Some Englishmen who have just returned from the United States est1- mate that 100000 Americans will attempt to see England enroute to the battlefieIds of France this summer. More conservative observers, however. place the number far below that.

FURNACE COMETS" CAUSE COMMENT
 IN PITTSBURGH

Pittsburgh, Feb. 26-Intense blast furnace activity, combined with low temperatures, has in recent weeks given to the Pittsburgh district some of the most beautiful furnace comets it has eyer seen. But they are gradually losing their bril1iancy, and with the approach of spring, scientists say, they will vanish until favorable conditions reappear next winter.
 Furnace Comets are great broad shafts of yellow light which pierce the black background of a murky sky in most spectacular manner. They flash almost without a moments mo- tice, and fade amost as quickly, only to reappear as bright, if not brighter than before. Usually there are two of them, at times rising perpendicular, but oftener cutting the sky like the beam of a searchlight.
 vatory explained the lights by saying that the light from blast furnaces penetrates the atm esphere above the city to great height, and there being caught by frost crystals send back the reflection in the form of broad bands. For years they have passed almost unnoticed until this year, when, because of the continued oper- alton of large numbers of furnaces, they becaNe much more frequent and much more beautiful

great plan to invade Poland and so get in the rear of the Esths, Let's and Bolshevism's other enemies in the Baltic Provinces He took pleasure not only in being against Russia as a whole, but against his own com rades, the Commissaries, and he won!
 All this vast power has fallen into his hands merely because he openly hates and despises his fellow crea- lures; because he believes that not fifty citizens on the face of the earth are fit to rule themselves. This notion appears increasingly in Lenine's arti- cles, pamphlets and oral uruerances In the "Pravda he lately published an article asking "Has Democracy in Russia Failed?'' and Aemanding <'tan intermediate stage of competent rule by fit men,
 In his lecture in the Grand Theatre on the second anniversary of the So- viet Revolution he declared that '<the local Soviets are worthless, corrupt and hopelessfy inefficient; and it is doubtful whether they can exist much longer" And his private utterances repeated in whispers by the great of the Moscow Commissary world, ex- press growing distrust and hatred of the world and an overwhelming con fdence in himself as the one man who is fit to rule.
 Lenine differs widely from his oomrade, Trotzky. Trotzky is active, lively, optimistic, facile, friendly. "He | would cut your throat with a smi1e,''
 says the and-Bolshevik Meyerstein, 1 who knew him in the Bronx. Lenine
 is sour, gloomy, sardonic- He in duIges gleefu1ly in prophecies of the
 coming doom of Bolshevism; and he 1 planes the worthlessness of Bofshev- i ists.
 He has no friends. This is all the more striking because he is most ac- cessible. Other nlisanthropes shrocd themselves in mystery and sec1uSion- Lenine goes everywhere; he seeS | every one; he reads public lectures
 he appears with his wife at CubSst art shows; he listens while tuberco- Ious Bloshevik violiuists in fame col ored trousers play Mussorgsky and
 Seriabine; he talks in soldiers drink
 ing halls. But he is never good
 humored. He is sour and snarftng
 When he talks to soldiers he does not
 fiatter them. He te1ls. them to go
 and wash their ears; he hints that
 worthless scum of tls earth like they will never save Soviet Russia from her imperialistic foes.
 Lenine's new bill expresses fh4s philosophy of life. The miserable Executive Council, representing the eFnancipated pro1etariat is shorn of the immense powers which it eyer had-on paper.
 FsIn the interests of continuous goz- r ernment'' the Council of Comrnissar-
 ies will no longer take orders from the Executive Cabinet.
 Safeguards against Cabinet Autoo- ' racy will be given to the Executive 5 Council in the shape of the right to r interpeIfate,'' adds Lenine's new bill ! But nobody worries about the safe s guards. The move is toward consoli-
 dation and constitutional recognition 7 of the Lenine autocracy, and the aim = is that Man Hater Ienfne shah b< l able to pursue, undisturbed by crit. l cism, his vivisection of the prostrat< 8 | body of the Russian people

OF
 VIRGIN ISLANDS
 NOT TO CHANCE
Inspection Committee Files Report On Trip Recent
 ly Completed

Washington, D. C., Feb. 26.- There is apparently little chance of the inhabitants of the Virgin Islands, formerly the Danish West Indies. be- ing granted further electoral power than they possess at the present time. This undoubtedly will be the recom- mendaion to Congress of the visiting committee - consisting of Senators Gay of Louisiana, Kenyon of Iowa and Edge of New Jersey, and Repre- sentative Garrett of Tennessee, Campbell of Kansas and Towner of Eowa-which has just returned from an inspection trip.
 It is not considered likely that the Virgin Islands will ever be much more than an important naval strate- gic base, which is the reason why the United States bought them from Denmark.
 The trip of the Congressional com mjttee was made at the request of some residents of the islands, and also because the Navy Department officials desired it. There had been some agitation in favor of the United States giving the Virgin Islanders what they called "civl governmen but, according to Representative Tinis J. Garrett, they already possess this. They are now in possession of all the franchise privileges granted by Denmark which include two elected legislative councils, one for te island of St. Croix and the ether for the islands of St. John and St. Thomas. These are still in existence, an American admiral succeeding the Danish governor as the immediate ruling power. These councils at n raising the 1n6iclArv etc, their acts being subject to the approval of the governor, of course.
 As MT Garrett expressed it, 'tthe substantial thought of the residents was for perpetuation of the control of the Navy Department. The islands contain some 28,000 people of whom 1000 are white and the remainder negroes. Some agitatOrs among the latter are credited with the petition to the United States to change the form of government, and they ob- tained support from members of their own race by implying that the new parent of the Virgin Islands Uncle Sam-would tap his treasury for all necessary funds if the pro- jected change was made, eliminating such superfIous expenditures as taxes on the part of the inhabitants. Natu- rally this was popular.
 As matter of fact, the Danish Government for many years ap- propriated about s15O,0OO annually for maintenance in the islands, this being needed over and above the revenue produced by taxation. MT. Garrett is of the opinion that the United States will be required to do the same thing for some time, at least.
 The island of St. Croix produces sugar in bountiful quantities, St. Thomas has some cattle industry but St. John has practically nothing.

LIQUOR REVOLT

Iron River, Mich, Feb. 6S-The armed force of federal agents under command of Major A V. DaHymple, who canEe here from Chicago to ~put down a liquor rebellion in the upper Michigan peninsula today had been withdrawn and the revolt" itself had dickered out The only casualties were nine barrels of home made wine taken by revenue agents from a par fsh priests house where the state had stored it for safe keeping, and poured into the snow.

 H. B. Gaylord, assistant chief oE prohibition enforcement, was enroute from Washington to Iron River to
 make an investigation, demanded iH telegraIns from McDonough, who in- sisted there was no revolt and [ charged that his constituency had been hbeled by DaIrymple's reports
 McDonough and Dalrymple held conference in the lobby Of a hotel here yesterday. Mutual accusations GaT seeking were made and McDonough I threatened to arrest the major and i put him in jail if he made 8 move to 'tstart something There were many witnesses and to the confer esnce among whom was the Iron River d Chief of police, who held a warrant for DalRymple's arrest. The war rant, however, was not served. The conference was carried on in ange: but at it's conclusion McDonough and DaIrymple posed, side by side, for the caIneranoen-
 Dahymple then retired to his room in the hotel and McDonough to his office. Later the federal agents boarded a train for e1-cago and the state constabulary, detailed to assist the revenue men, were sent about other duties.
 Major DaIrymple announced he would go to Washington to Hay all the facts before Commissioner Kra- 1ner" The states attorney reiterat- ed he would demand "a full and complete investigation of this affair and of Major Da1rymple's part in giving the United States the impress sion that Iron county is in revolt and is inhabited by savages."
 Lack of support from Washington Major Dalrymple said had caused the failure of his expedition" but he declared he would not quit his office 7lnless Commissioner Kramer request ed it.

Washington, Feb. 26-The relation ship of Ludwig c. A. K.

 Martens admitted that he had met on several occasions in conference oE executive session with the federation and it's leaders. He denied that the federation had any control over his action as Soviet ambassador but admitted they had tried to control him. The witness said he tried to get resolution on the subject adopted by the federation's central commit tee and when he failed to do so, he withdrew.

Lenine Is Growing More
 DespOtic Day By Day
HATES MEN, WOMEN, EVERYTHING +DISTRUSTS
 EVERY ONE ABOUT HIM

Berlin, Feb. z6--Nicholas Lenfne is a man-hater, woman-hater, an everything -hater. That is the basis of his autocracy; and now his auto eracy is to be increased. He has drawn up a bill whereby all the enor- nous powers hitherto giHen-on pa per-to the Bolshevik Parliament shall be concentrated in his hands alone.
 The Soviet Cabinet Counefl-which is Lenine-win henceforth dominate Soviet Russia. Lenine will achieve his aim of proving-as SCommissary zinovieff says-that 'tninety-nine Rus sians out of a hundred are fools and the hundredth is a rogue"
 Lenine's notions of the art of gov ernment are based on misanthro phy, distrust of everyone and sardonic con tempt. For over a year he has been opposing the pseudo democratic no | ton that incompetent proletarians ] should get their way. This notion, l which is really an expression or re- l spect for and confidence in humanity l is embodied in the admirable-on
 paper-Russian Soviet Constitution, which contains the greatest paper l recognition of democracy ever drawn l up. It provides that the peoples
 representatives shall not only Ieg1sIate l but directly rule.
 The Soviet Council Of Comnais- l saries,'' which is the Cabinet, is sup l posed to be a conference of mere ] senior clerks who take orders from 1 the Parliament; and, to show thai
 this is so, the Parliament bears the
 title Executive Council"
 Therefore, on paper, Isenine is g

SOVTETS AMUSED OVER TALES OF
 ALLEGED CRUELTY

Amsterdam, Feb. 26.-The Soviet peasants and soldiers were greatly amused over the stories told abroad of their cruelty, says the staff cor respondent of the Handelsblad. G. Nypels, in continuing his descrip- ton of conditions in Soviet Russia, from which he has just returned. While not going into the truth of the various tales of cruelty, which have been related, yet Bolshevists he says, ridicuIe all these reports which have l cen spread abroad.
 In the course of a trip aboard a IoIshevik armored train from Kroe- ike. near the Polish front, to Orsha, with Bolshevik officers, the cores 9iondent was asked many questions cgarding the reports about them.
 We were drinking ersatz (inita- tion) tea, sitting around a nice little ttble," the correspondent said, "and had to tell the Bolsheviks what people abroad thought of the Red army.
 "They asked if it was true that mothers frightened their children with the name 'BolShevik.'
 At my frank answer that this was about so, one long, sinister com 1alissar, apparently a pure stock ater of the capitalists, looked more and more dreadful, but the others could not stop laughing. They made me explain very carefully their al leged cruelties, and stories about al leged conmunized women, and o- men who were slaughtered anC eaten. These made them choke theil llughter. Soldiers who heard it wen 1o other parties and told their com 1i4des. who liked it just as much
 In the officers mess at this place q strange gathering of former officer of the Car and of new, "siniste commissars,' the correspondent found that the half witted servan had been given the nickname O ..Kolchak'' and there were roars 0 laughter as "Kolchak' was ordere' around.
