London, Dec. the Archangel Nov. 1, via 0 (Correspondence ed Press.)—Tales of horrors the territory cantrolled by Bol- shevik government are brought here almost daily by some adventurous Russian, often a young officer who has made his way through the Bol- shevik lines. These stories are pub- lished in the Archangel aewspapers | under the headline, “The Russian Nightmare.” Two of the member angel city duma 2 of Associat- withia the of the Arch- who recently return- Moscow where they had been taken uader arrest, quoted Nikolai Lenine, the Bolshevik premier, saving “Our days are numbered We know that, but, in leaving the power, we will shut the doors in a vay to make Furope shudder. One of the Archaagel papers that the record of the “Central Russian investigation comn one of tarture and horrors people,” it adds, “disappear in groups Agents of the German general st are working in the commission. Peo- ple are shot in the building of the | commission itself and in groups of 20 to 30 at a time. Those wha come in order to iaquire ahout arrested relatives are themselves arrested and | disappear. Only those who can afford to pay a large sum of money are lib- erated. For 30,000 or 50,000 rubles one can save his life. Trotzky, for- merly foreign minister, has lost all sympathies among the workiag men, hut Lenine still has great success in some places.” One Bolshevik member of tral Soviet, Comrad Zinovieft ed as saying in a speech: come to Petrograd you will bourgeoise paving the caurt ay institute, unloading the ships on the Neva and cleaning the harracks. Winter clothes are being requisition- ed in Petrograd. The bourgeois fur coats will not exactly fit the Red Guards but they will patiently bear this incoavenience. On the Ural front we have already distributed among the Red Guards 600 sults and overcoats belonging ta the Romanoffs. The Bourgeoise must disappear in socialistic state. If we go on steadily we will soon teach the Russian bour- geoise what it ought to be and after that the bourgeoise of the werld.” Another speaker at the Soviet gov- ernment, Bukharin, is quoted as say- ing that Germany and Austria no longer were dangerous to Rolshevism but that the main danger now lay with, England and America. “We must support the revolution in the central empires and we have decided to sacr cur blood and our bread to the German proletariat.” Other fugees here the Bolsheviki openly their hopes of maintaining power are very weak and that their only hope is a world-wide revolution. as savs All- the is cen- quot- “If vou see fthe of Smol- that report confess that | CITY CLERK'S REPOF Ninc Property Transfers, D Seven Mar- riages and ths This Week.
