VARIOUS REPORTS FROM PETROGRAD (Continued From First Page.) Premier Kerensky on an all-soclalist government. There are conflicting reports from Moscow and other large cities. The Bolsheviki report officially that Mos- cow is still in their hands, although a telegram to the committee of public safety on Sunday said that the Ker- ensky adherents there had driven the Bolsheviki into the Kremlin, where they were besieged. Among the reports heard indicating that Lenine and Trotzky are aboard the cruiserAurora and are directing operations’ from that place of safety. The scenes on the streets today were similar to those of last Thursday when the people quiet- ly transacted their business as though no bullets had disturbed them. At the corner of the Grand Mors- kaia and the Gorokovaia, near the telephone exchange, during the long battle on Sunday in which the Bolshe- viki regained possession of the ex- change from the military cadets, in- cidents of the fighting could be seen from the office of the Associated Press nearby. There were intermittent fusillades from rifles and machine guns during the morning and after- noon as the Bolsheviki, stationed 100 yards down the Morskaia, made spas- modic sorties toward the exchange. A curious crowd peered around the cor- ners, hugged buildings and crouched in doorways to escape the bullets. An armored car, manned by mili- tary cadets and stationed in the square around the cathedral of St. Issac, cleared the streets there with a fusillade in reply to occasional fir- ing from Bolsheviki infantry men hidden behind the marble columns in front of the great cathedral. Some time later the fuel supply of the car became exhausted and the car was captured by Bolsheviki sailors, who killed two of the accupants by firing through the portholes. They then broke in the steel door and dragged the third occupant who was wounded, to the street. He was killed by the sailors while a crowd of spectators within the hotel Astoria cried out in protest. The bodies lay in the street for half an hour until hospital nurses and French officers gained permission to remove them. At one moment machine gun bul- lets were whizzing through the streets, the next the firing ceased and tho people doffed their hats as a funeral cortege, with four white horses draw- ing a white canopied hearse and black-garbed mourners following on 15 fone MYSTERIOUS FIRE T St. John's German Lutheran church . on Arch street was damaged to the extent of over $1,000 last evening by a fire believed to have been caused by an overheated boiler. Shortly after 12 | o'clock Officer Herbert C. Lyon was | notified of the fire and at 12:04 all the | fire department with the exception of | No. 5 were on, the scene. A double i [ i | 5 alarm was rung in from box 17, at Hart and Arch streets. The fire started in the boiler room Jm the basement and worked upward [ burning the woodwork and ceilin, The plaster in the church vestibule HREATENS ST. JOHN’S LUTHERAN CHURCH ST.

Gaudian, pastor of the church, today said: “Some say it was caused by an overheated boiler put we don’t really know the cause. The janitor who takes care of the fire went home at 9:30 o'clock. Iie covered the fire over as usual and everything was all right.” The minister was high in his praise for the work done by the firemen. and the room The fire might have been much worse | if the department had not been efticient in handling it, he thought. The loss is covered by insurance. s0 of the Bolsheviki. TIn taking the ex- change the cadets had captured M Antonoff, the assistant minister of | foot, crossed the Morskaia directly in the line of fire. Bullets spattered against the facades of the building and one mili- tary cadet fell in a crumpled heap acrass the street from the Associated Press office. Another fell with a shot through the head as he was warning the onlookers to seek safer quarters The military cadets within the tele- phone exchange surrendered shortly after dusk when their ammunition became exhausted. The city then be- came quiet except for occasional spasmodic firing. Balsheviki forces, reinforced by sailors from the battleship Petroslav- off and other warships and from ilels- ingfars, patrolled the city today. The heaviest guard, backed by artillery, was stationed at the telephone ex- change to prevent a surprise attack to recapture. Two other clashes between the mil- itary cadets and the Bolsheviki oc- curred Sunday at the Fontanka bridge, where a military cadet car was cap- tured and-the inmates killed, and.at Vladmirsky the military cadet school, which was bombarded and captured only after a brave defense. The mil- itary cadets, who correspond to the MWest Point cadets in America, are the only military forces in Petrograd loyal to Premier Kerensky. Until Saturday afternoon from surface indi- cations things were going fairly smooth for the Bolsheviki. Rumors of the approach of Kerensky with an armed force were given little credence. A wave of excitement swept over the city Saturday afternoon when re- ports arrived that a battle was in progress at Alexandrovsk, half way to Gatchina. The shutters went up, the shops were closed and excited people thronged the streets eagerly reading the posters which appeared at fre- quent intervals. Throughout Saturday night and Sunday the whereabouts of Keren- sky's army was the engrossing sub- ject. Today no news of it had been received. The populace expects to hear the roar of guns announcing its approach almost any time. Bolshe- viki troops have been rushed to all the approaches to the city and ap- peals have been made to the factory | workers to go to the suburbs to dig | lrm\(‘h(w or prepare barricades. The | s, Tsarskoe-Selo and Baltiz stations have become armed camps. Petrograd was tranquil morning. Meanwhile the committee of public safety is proceeding with its efforts to unite the opp ion ele- ments. It proposes the formation of a stable power to take charge of the government until a constituent a sembly meets. The seizure of the central telephone exchange by the military cadets was made possible by deceiving the Bolsheviki guard, to whom the cadets presented forged credentials from the Lenine govern ment. Two Americans spent Sund: with the cadets who defended the building. They were Bessie Beatty, of the San Francisco Bulletin, and Al- bert Rheys Williams of Boston. The military cadets were prompted to undertake the adventure in the be- lief that Premler Kerensky was on hand with his army and was on the point of retaking the city. They numbered not more than 60 and had but a small supply of ammunition. Early in the afternoon they realized that the cause was hopeless as no news had come of expected relief and their ammunition was nearly ex- hausted. Many of the cadets were parolled after the surrender of the Monday war, whom they held prisoner. Panic soon scized tho defenders. The officers, in desperation cut buttons and insignia from their uni- | forms, while others discarded their | uniforms and attired themsclves in | the garments of linemen Ifrantie telephone calls were sent every direction asking for help. Finally M. Antonoff and Mr. Williams were sent to parley with the Bolsheviki, who gave their word that the would be spared if they surrendered The military cade were led one and one and formally delivered to the victors Many of the telephone operators re- mained at their posts throughout the | fight. Miss Beatty cheered and en- | couraged the more timorous girls and assisted in treating the wounds of the military cadets who had been shot Wy | th Bolsheviki. | The American consul general at | Moscow, telegraphing to Ambassador | Francis under Sunday’s date, confirms | reports of fighting there between the Bolsheviki and provisional \o\crn-; ment forces.
