THE RUSSIAN FIGHTING.

Helsingfors, Nov. 2.

Linset, the North-west Russian Premier, hus formally requested Finland's military aid against Petrograd, reatfirming recognition of Finland's indepen dence.

London, Nov. S

Gendral Denikin's communique of 31st. Oct. partially Alucidates the successes claimed by the Bolsheviks. The right wing of the Don Army has been driven back some- that by Bolshevik reinforcements and the Bolshevik diri- ion which was Surrounded in the valley of Medvyeditsa ucceeded in extricating itself north-eastwards, with loss Northwards between Buzuluk and Khoper, of 2,000 men. repeated Bolshevik attacks against the centre of the Den Army broke down with heavy losses, the Cossacks captur- ing three companies of Soviet regiment and 250 other prisoners. Southwards of Novokhopersk three Bolshevik regiments were defeated and ded northwards, losing a thousand prisurers and eight guns. On the whole front of 150 miles from Yalets to Syevsk the Bolsheviks heavily attacked. All attacks, east of Orel, were repulsed with heavy losses.

General Judenitch, in a communique, admits the evacuation of Luga in face of attack by large Bolshevik forces. Negotiations for Finland's participation in the Petrograd offensive have taken a favourable turn and a decision is expected in the next few days.

London, Nov. 4.

A Bolshevik wireless claims that General Yudenitch's north-west army has been aurrounded.

In the House of Commons, replying to a question, Mr. Harmsworth cocirmed that Goode had been arrested because he came direct from the Bolsheviks. He was subsequently released upon instructions from London.

It adds that after occupying Luga the Bolsheviks advanced west- wards along the railway and occupied two stations.

RIOTING IN EGYPT.

Cairo, Oct. 31.

The Police and Military were withdrawn from Alex- andria after a deputation of notables gave the Governor an undertaking that there would be no demonstrations or disorders. Nevertheless a procession of striking car- ters and car drivers was formed at noon and, joined by thousands of natives, marched through the European quarter An army ambulance, driven by an Egyptian. dashed into the procession, killing one and wounding five. The passions of the demonstrators broke out and there was general looting on the line of match for an hour. They dispersed on the persuasion of the notables. There were a few incidents yesterday when British soldiers. were beaten and officers in motor cars stoned.

THE BULGARIAN TERMS.

Paris, Noy. 5.

}

The Allies replying to the Eulgarian objections to the terms cabled on Sept. 19 especially the plea that the alliance with Germany was a mere accident recall Bulgaria's unprovoked rearward attack on Serbia thua paralysing the berioc Serbian resistance against the in- vaders and acting as a vanguard of the German armies by making a war of conquest and pillage against Greece and Serbia. Nevertheless the Allies are not inspired by a spirit of vengance and do not dream of making Bulgaria expiate her past faults but merely wish a just and con- Sequently durable peace. It reminds Bulgaria that they allowed her an economic outle: to the Agean and made".. same modifications in the terms. They hnally notify that Bulgarian's text must now be accepted or rejected within ten days whereafter the armistice of Sept. 29, 1918, ends and the Allies will take scch steps as may be thought usefpi

"TOYS OF FATE."

ANOTHER BIG CORONET

DRAW.

on

In spite of the fact that the weather on Saturday was very unpropitious a large number of people were tempted to the Coronet by the picture Toys of Fate," in which the incom- parable Nazimova takes the chief role. We do not think that a single member. of the audience had the slightest regret at having turned out Isuch a miserable night. The picture truly is, as Mr. Ray has pointed out in his advertisement, bigger and better than "Revela- tion. That was a glorious pro- duction as the Hongkong public can testify, so that to say it was even surpassed by "Toys of Fate" is going fari Neverthe less it is true. The Coronet is showing" big picture after big picture to such an extent that film lovers are not a little bo. wildered when it comes to discuss. ing the merits of those that have been screened. The one thing outstanding, however, is that each successive film seems better than the one before. "Toys of Fate" is a “winner". It has taken the public by storm. We have seen Nazimova before on The Coronet screen and there- fore expected reat things of her in Toys of Fate". We were not! disappointed. She ucts & tremend- lously difficult part exquisitely, thus making a grand success of a strong story which could have been so easily spoiled had it not been treated in the azimova WAY.

The showing of "Toys of Fate" is An opportunity no-one should miss of seeing what is best in the picture world.

To-day at 2.15 p.m. there is a grand holiday matince when The Tarzan Story. complete. in fifteen reels. will be screened.

Another thief who took part in the broaching of a box of felt hats on the s.s. Glengyle was to-day given seven days for the theft of
