 "Only few days ago, Supreme Ruler Kolchak was hoisted on his soldiers bayonets."
 There has been considerable un. certainty as to the recent where abouts of Admiral Kolchak, long time head of the all-Russian government which was driven from Omsk and then virtually wiped out by the recent bolsheviki successes in Si- beria. He has been variously re- ported captured by the bolshevik proper, west of Irkutsk, arrested by social revolutionists and imprisoned at Irkutsk, and was under detention by revolting troops from his own armies. It has been definitely es- tablished, however, that he has not been free agent for some weeks apparently, authentic advices declar- ing that he was turned over to In. surgent revolutionists by General Janin, the commander of the Czechs in Siberia, whom the allies had asked to protect Kolchak. Gen eral Janin's defenders declare he was forced to surrender the admiral or face the annihiliation of the Czech forces.
