Soskice, private secretary to Premier Kenensky, told the Associated Press today that “the situation shows steady improvement.” Continuing, he said: “Gen. Korniloff has not surrend- ered, but he is quite prepared to do so and is in a position of complets powerlessness. We have just received | an offer of surrender from 12 com- panies of Korniloff troops who say they have been deceived, and Gen. Kaledin who with' his Don cos- sacks began a menacing movement against the government has been checked.

London, Sept. 14.—The Petrograd correspondent of Reuter's states that Vice Premier Nekrasoff has informed the press that he and M. Terestchen- ko, minister of foreign affairs, have decided to leave their posts in th b- inet, considering that their participa- tion in the government narrowed their political horizon and, being only bus- iness ministers without party support, they did not possess sufficient strength in the cabipet. The vice premier also announced the withdrawal from the cabinet of M. Pieschehonoff, minister of food and suppli Other changes in the cabinet in- clude the retirement of M. Tchernoff, minister of agriculture, who will be replaced by M. Avskentieff, present minister of the interior who will be succeeded by M. Kisschinif, a cons tutional democrat. He enters the cab- inet unconditionally Kornilofi's Punishment Moot Point. Washington, Sept. 14.—General Kornlloff’s punishment seems one of the points concerned in the formation of a new cabinet. Unofficial reports reaching here today indicated that Premier Kerensky was determined to inflict a heavy penalty as a warning agalnst future uprisings, but certain elements of the constitutional demo- crats, and even many leaders of the council of workmen's and soldiers’ delegates. Kerensky's closest political friends, advocate leniency. It is considered probable that one early move of the new government may be to disestablish the Duma which has given some evidence of fa- voring return fo the monarchy and has opposed many democratic Tre- forms of the revolution.
