SEIZU OFLA INSPIRES REVOLTS Reinforcements Rush| to Check Revolu- tion; Il Russia Is} Still in Turmoil, Say Dispatches By JOSEPH SHAPLEN (United Press Staff Correspondent.) | STOCKHOLM, July 11—Uleaine | is in the throes of a revolution against the German military. The Germans, in anticipation of | a serious uprising, are pouring in thousands of reinforcements to Ukraine and now have 420,000 sol- diers in the field. The peasants have several small armies of fifteen to twenty thousand each, well armed, it is said. They are firmly entrenched at many points and open fighting is expected when |} the Germans attempt to dislodge them. The peasants are in revolt against| the Germans for returning their land to the landlords and _ eliminating homesteads eccupied by the workers since the overthrow of the Czar’s | government, Such large forces of Germans in Ukraine, it is believed, explain the delay in the resumption of the Ger- man offensive on the western front. {By Associated Prens:] LONDON, July 11.—Swedish news- papers publish a statement by a Swede just returned from Moscow that Alexis Romanoff, son of the former Russian emperor, was killed by a Bolsheviki soldier by means of a bomb, says an Exchange Tele- graph dispatch from Copenhagen.
