According to reports of reliable persona just arrived from Moscow, Lenin is coni sidering the advisability of retiring"fruaj the Soviet Government. Failure of the Bolshevist propaganda has impelled him to summon business men to a council in the drewlip, and he is requesting them freely to advise him what to do to extri cate Russia from ber desperate situation following, the Bolshevist experiment. A recent private visit of prominent Ameri- cans to Moscow has also exerted, gre influence on Lenin's attitude, and the invincible antipathy of the Russian peu sants to Bolshevism has convinced him of the.

In private conversation the Bolshevist dictator declared he would agree to

It was part of the plunder that was supposed to go to the Germans after the patchwork treaty of Brest-Litovsk, and Baron Kaiserling came all the way from Berlin to negotiate with the

The Russian sailors, who bebing to the most independent group of the Bol alviks, oljeeted, and were so insistent that prevent counter-revolution. among Trotsky's pet branch of the ver vice, the, nelarious project of selling the Rustian Fleet to Germany was dropped. The Russian Navy thus became more of and the sailors had, baye aliard"

Some ut the ships even went to Lake Ladoga, at the other end of the Neva, to make way for river traffic.
