plaintiff claims that the defendants sold the necklace illegally and on false repre- sentations made to him.
 The complaint alleges that on Dec. 29, 1920, Hummel. who was an enlisted sea- man in thA United States navy. stationed in New London. applied to the defendants for the loan of s250 upon a diamond necklace which had been an heirloom in his family for several generations and had a current market value of s3.5o0, on the express condition that, whereas the necklace was of great current and sentimental value, and the plaintiff, in his capaciyt as an enlisted seaman. might be ordered to foreign waters for a long period of time, the defendants should not sell or otherwise dispose of the necklace without first giving actuad notice to the plaintiff or his legal representative and . fair opportunity to redeem it
 The defendants loaned the money and accepted the necklace as collateral se- curity on the conditions and assured the plaintiff that they would not sell or dis pose of the chattel, and the plaintiff coniding in the defendapts' promises and representations and relying upon thei, assurance, entrusted the necklace to theil keeping and accepted a receipt which ht supposed was merely to enable him ts identify and reclaim his property wher the time for redemption should come It is claimed that the defenda ants knowing the great value of the necklac,
 as compared to the amount of the loan
 and that as naval seaman the plaintiff
 was likely to be ordered tp distant seas
 made the promises and representations t, him deceitfully, to induce him to conid, the necklace to their keeping. and to ac cept from them the kind of receipt whicl

against the in~surgentss SsHSrs
The Karelian revolt began late in
October but the Russian soviets did
lot begin active operations against
ihe,Karelians until the latter part of
December.
The territory actually occupied by
the insurgents consists only of about
10000 square miles Of sparsely settled
forest wilderness, with a total popu-
lation' only of about 10000 persons.
Raiding bands, however, have dashed
on snowshoes hundreds of miles from
the; occupied territory to the Muir
mansk railway, which runs from Muir
mansk to Petrograd and have blown
up several bridges, thus preventing
movement Of Bolshevik reinforce
ments.s
When these bridges are repaired
Nthe BOlsheviki contend it will be a
simple ttho0gh long task to quash' the
revolt. The absolute, lack of rail-
roads and scarcity of useable highways
will prevent movement of any large
body of troops into the forests, in
which most of the insurgents are as
much at home as the foxes and
wolves.
