RUSSIAN LEADERS HOPE FOR ALLIED INTERVENTICN Paris, Des. 26—The recent an- nouncement by Stephen Pichon, the foreign minister, that tha Entente had decided against extensive mflitary in- tervention in Russia at present has had a discouraging effect upon For- mer Premiers Lvoff and Kokovsoff and other prominent Russians who now are in conference in Paris, This ma: be said despite the fact that they did not expect an immediate response to tireir appeals, bacause of the lack of unification of the forces cpposed to the Bolsheviki and the inability of the remote provisional governments to co- ordinate their movements. The Russian leaders cqntinue their conferences at the Russiali embassy in the hope that- they will get a formal hearing when the peace congress act- ually opens. Former Premier Lvoff, who is the chief spokesman of the Russian -group in Paris, urges azainst | the Russian embassy. delay in any exten®%n of the Entente wilitary movement there because it would to enlargs Bolshgvik territory ond would play into the hands of the Germans who are planning for the domination of Russia through cooper- ation with the Bolsheviki. The French press rather generally voices the opinion that France would be unable to undertake an extensive military movement into Russia, even it such were advisable. Professor Eakimeteff, the Russian representa- tive in Washington, is the only Rus- sian who has been received up to this time by Secretary Lansing, althoughiy, both President Wilson and Secretiv\ | Lansing saw Former Premier Lvoff in | ‘Washington.
