Petrograd: Kerensky, the new
Premier, is grappling with the
latest revolt. He ealls on the
disgraced regiments and battle-
ships to arrest the ringleaders
and send them for trail. Vigor-
ous measures will follow refusal.
The premier appeals to all true
sons of democracy to rally around
the government,

A further retreat by Russians
has been made in east Galicia,
because the troops did not show
necessary stability and at points
did not fulfill commands.

Fighting began yesterday on the
Roumanian front, where Austro-
German troops were repulsed by
the Roumanians, .

Speech was a mere sham, says
Lloyd George. Europe has not

sons to set up a sanctuary for

Michaelis will soon sing another

Supplies for a year are assured.
Britain will start the cereal year
with nearly seven months’ stocks,
There were only nine weeks’
supplies last March. A huge
potato crop is coming to market,
and the problem is merely one of
price and distribution. Eeonomy
taught the people by the crisis
will be permanent. There will be
no need for compulsory rations.

- The British government will
make reprisals for enemy air
raids.

Enemy artillery showed great
activity during the day at Lom-

baertze, Four German airdromes

were successfully bombed by our
airplanes. Bombs were also
dropped on an important railway
junction, causing a large ex-
plosion. :

Patrol encounters resulted in our
favor south of Lens and north-
west of St. Quentin. Hostile

arlillery was active in the neigh-
borhood of Lens and Armentieres.

The Germans are very nervous
and fire their big guns blindly,
They fear Hair is planning some
coup and are doing their best to
learn what it is. Forty German
airplanes have been bronghtdown
in the past five days. Canadians
made a successful raid near
Avion,

The Germans have made yet
another raid on the English coast.
and dropped a number of bombs
over Felixstowe and Harwich,
killing eleven persons. They
were soon compelled to make a

attacks of the campaign north of

Petrograd: Kerensky wil! stop
at nothing to save Russia, A
“blood and iron’? policy vill be
introduced if necessary to save
the nation from destruction, The
premier declares the situation is
very serious at the front/ and
looks for a state organization to
combat the evils, ‘Death to ail
Lenineites” cried the Petrograd
women,aroused to a furious pitch
by the perfidy of the pro-Ger-
mans, two of whom were torn to
pieces by the angry populace.
Petrograd is quiet, Reactionaries
have laid down their arms,

London: West of Havrincourt
and east.of Vermelles and west
of Hollebeke we carried out sue-
cessful raids, taking prisoners,

Signs of a halt in-the Russian
retreat before the advancing
Austro-German armies are large-

London: The Russian defeat
is an appalling blow to the Allies.
Tremendous war strength wag

impregnable.. The collapse of
the Russians is deeply disappoin-

of Russia at heart. The artillery
was admirably placed for defense.
Russian losses are stupendous;
The 7th and 8th armies were
utterly routed, Never in war
has Russia put afield such enor-

Some casualties were sustained.
London: The opening of a
great British offensive, heralded
for days by intense artillery
actions from the river Searpe to
the coast, is helieved to be at
hand. An official announcement
from Berlin of a duel of giant
guns reaching an intensity never
before paralleled since the war
began indicates that the British}
are making the last preparations
for a big thrust, which is believed
tohave been hastened to save

Russia from complete collapse,
