KERENSKYOUSTED BY RUSS REBELS; SLAVS ASK PEACE

Terrific Night Battle in Petrograd Brings Victory to the Radicals. ALL MINISTERS ARE ARRESTED Shells From Cruiser and Fortress Compel Woman Defenders to Surrender—Deposed Premier Flees From the Capital—Armistice to Be Requested of Enemy. Petrograd, Nov. 9. —Russia is in the throes of civil war. Following the action of the Maximalist armed naval detachment in taking possession of the Marie palace, where the preliminary parliament had been sitting, and the telegraph agencies, the anti-Kerensky factions, headed by Nikolai Lenine, Radical Socialist leader, and Leon Trotszky, president of the central executive committee of the Petrograd council of workmen's and soldiers’ delegates (the Soviet), seized the reins of power at the capital. The overthrow ,of Premier Kerensky was proclaimed -and the government troops forced to surrender after a battle in the streets of the city. Kerensky in Flight. Premier Kerensky has tied the capital. Reports as to his whereabouts conflict. Some say he has sought safety in Moscow, while others assert he has gone to the front in an endeavor to obtain the backing of the tr •<?: s to forestall a debacle of his (’ ssack regiments are declared already to--have announced their readmes- to support the governmen* a condition that no compromise with the revolutionists is made. On the tiier hand, it is asserted that deleg_s from the Black and Baltic sea fleets have declared themselves in favor ■ f the radicals. Five tinder Arrest. Five members of the Kerensky government are under arrest. They are: A. I. Konovaloff. minister of trade and industry : M. Kishkin, minister of public welfare; M. I. Terestchenko, minister of foreign affairs; M. Malyantovitch, minister of justice; M. Nikitin, minister of the interior. Win by Bloodshed. J The revolution was not peaceful. Details of what happened are meager, the new rulers having the telegraph offices in their control. Government forces holding the Winter Palace were forced to capitulate early Thursday morning under the fire of the cruiser Aurora and the cannon of the SS. Peter and Paul fortress across the Neva river. At 2a. m. the woman's battalion, which had been defending the Winter Palace, grounded arms.

The workmen's and soldiers’ delegates are in complete control of the city. Cruiser Opens Fire. Late in the evening, after the government forces had been driven into the Winter palace, the palace was besieged and a lively light of machine guns and rifles began. The cruiser Aurora, which was mooretPat the Niecolai bridge, moved up within range, tiring shrapnel. Meanwhile the guns of SS. Peter and Paul fortress opened fire. The palace stood out under the glare of the searchlights of the cruiser and offered a good target for the guns. The defenders held out for four hours, replying as best they could with machine guns and rilles. The battle ar the palace, which began shortly after six o’clock, was a spectacular one, armed cars of the revolutionaries swinging into action in front of the gates, while flashes from the Neva were followed by the explosion of shells from the guns of the Aurora.

Great Soviet Meets. The general congress of workmen’s and soldiers’ delegates of all Russia (the great Soviet) was convened here, with 500 delegates in attendance. The chairman declared that the time was not propitious for political speeches, and the order of business of the congress Approved was as follows: 1. Organization of power. 2. Peace and war. 3. A Constituent assembly. The officers elected comprise 14 Maximalists. including Radical Socialist Leader Lenine, M. Zinovieff. an associate of Lenine, and Leon Trotzky, president of the central executive committee of the Petrograd council of workmen’s and soldiers’ delegates. In addition, seven revolutionary socialists were appointed. A delegation was named to initiate peace negotiations with the other revolutionary and democratic organizations “with a view to taking steps to stop bloodshed.”

Supreme Effort Seen Before America Is Invincible—Men Previously Rejected Called Out. « London, Nov. 9, —Germany called up her last reserves within the last few .days, according to the Central News correspondent at Zurich, telegraphing under Wednesday's date.

Important News Events of the World Summarized

U. S.—Teutonic War News The German artillery is very active all night and day, and shells of various calibers rain around the American position in France. So thickly did they come at one time It was thought another barrage was about to be placed for another raid on the American trenches. The Americans were ready for the Boche and hoping he would try another raid. But none developed. » • • America’s mission to the allies’ conference ip Paris has arrived safely in England. Announcement to this effect was made at Washington, with the comment that the gathering is to be a “war conference” with the object of co-ordinating all the fighting forces against the common enemy. The delegation is headed by Col. E. M. House, • • « It was officially announced at Washington that Americans responded to the call for a second Liberty war loan by subscribing $4,617,532,300, an oversubscription by 54 per cent of the $3,000,000,000 asked, and only $383,000,000 less than the $5,000,000,000 maximum fixed by the treasury. ♦ * • The navy department at Washington announced that the converted yacht Alcedo was torpedoed at 1:30 a. m. November 5. The official announcement reads: “One officer and twenty men are missing. The ship sank within four minutes after she was struck. Several vessels were searching for possible survivors at the time the report was made. The Alcedo carried seven officers and 85 m s en.” • • • A small detachment of American Infantrymen was attacked in the front line trenches in France by a much superior force of German shock troops. Americans were cut off from relief by the heavy barrage in their rear. They fought gallantly until overwhelmed, solely by numbers. t* ♦ • Advancing under protection of a heavy barrage fire, a Getman raiding party, shortly before daylight on Ihe morning of November 3, stormed a portion of a trench held by American troops on the French front, killing three, wounding five and taking 12 prisoners, according to dispatches from General Pershing to the war department at Washington. One German was captured. » • • Washington President Wilson issued at Washington his 1917 Thanksgiving proclamation calling upon the nation, even in the midst Of the sorrow and great peril of a world shaken by war, to thank God for blessings that are better than peace of mind and prosperity of enterprise. The proclamation named Thursday, November 29, as Thanksgiving day. • « « The United States’ agreement to recognize Japan’s special interests in China, made public at Washington, was declared by international experts to be the greatest diplomatic achievement of the present administration. Henceforth Japan must guard against pernicious political activities of her subjects. Japan voiced her eagerness to aid the United States in suppressing Prussian militarism. * • •

Domestic Gov. Samuel W. McCall, Republican, of Massachusetts, was re-elected by 85,000 plurality, defeating Frederick W. Mansfield, Democrat, who opposed him last year. The whole Republican state ticket was elected with the governor. * * * An agitator against the war or against conscription does’ not have to oppose them openly to violate the espionage act, but may do so merely by expressing adifairation or by idealizing persons whQ have obstructed recruiting, according to the decision of Judge Henry Wade Rogers of the United States circuit Court of appeals in the Masses case, the. text of which was made public at New York. ♦ * ♦ Ten or twelve passengers, mostly civilian, were injured, some seriously, when two interurban cars on the Camp Custer Hue collided near Battle Creek, Mich.* * * * Judge W. W. Morrow of the United States district court at San Francisco, upheld the right of a native of the Philippine Islands to become a citizen of the United States. * ♦ * The great Empire state joined the rariks of its sister states in the ‘ far West and granted her women the right to vote.

This was made known in Chicago in an address by Mrs. Florence Marshall, head of the woman’s bureau of the Red Cross at Washington.

THE TWICE-A-WEEK DEMOCRAT

♦ w ♦ John F. Dylan, a county judge of Kings county, was elected mayor of New York by a plurality of more than 140,000. He carried with him the entire Democratic city ticket. Mayor John P. Mitchel, who sought re-elec-tion as a fusion candidate, was a poor second in the race. His vote was 145,459, compared with 288,435 for Hylan. Morris Hillquist. the Socialist candidate, stood third, with 134.590, and William M. Bennett, Republican, was fourth with 51,956. ■, * * » ' Guards were placed about the residence of Archbishop Ireland and other Roman Catholic leaders at St. Paul, Minn., while police investigated the explosion which wrecked &e parish house of St. Agnes’ church. The police theory is that a pro-German was responsible for the explosion. The first dependent of an American soldier killed in trench warfare to receive compensation under the government system will be Mrs. Alice Dodd of Evansville, Ind., widowed mother of Private James B. Gresham, one of the victims of the German raid on American trenches in France, November 3. She will receive at least $45 a month. • • * European War News It is announced at the Austro-Hun-garian army headquarters, according to dispatch to London from Amsterdam to the Exchange Telegraph company, that the Teutonic armies operating against Italy number five. ♦ ♦ ♦ The r<4il crisis in the. Italian situation is rapidly approaching. According to dispatches, reaching Washington General Cadorna has abandoned the entire length of the line of the Taglianiento river in favor of his selected new line of defense. This line is that of the Piave river, which Is, generally speaking, 25 miles west of the Tagliamento. Failure to hold the Piave will hand over Venice as a rich trophy of war to the Teutonic forces. • * • A marked decrease in the British merchant ships sunk during the last week is noted in the admiralty report Issued at London. Only eight vessels over 1,600 tons were sunk by mine or submarine and four vessels under that tonnage. No fishing vessels were sunk. This is low-water mark. v • • According to Vry Belgie, the German administration in Belgium has decided to appropriate for German use half the entire crop of potatoes, fruit and vegetables. • • • The Canadians, in their drive against the German lines, have advanced about 800 yards beyond the center of Passchedaele, having battled their way to their final mark, says a dispatch from London. A considerable number of prisoners already have reached the’ cages. • • •

The French advance in pursuit of the Germans beyond the Chemin-des-Dames has attained an average of a mile and a half, the southern bank of the Ailette being reached everywhere. Altogether about eighteen square miles of territory have fallen into French hands. * * * The British admiralty announced at London that certain British forces have been engaged in the Cattegat, an arm, of the North sea. between Sweden and Denmark, and that ten armed patrol craft, in addition to a German auxiliary cruiser were destroyed. * * • Personal Maj.

THE COAL USER’S LAMENT

There is dust and there’s dirt and coal on the floor. There is ashes and soot and grime galore. ’Tis the same today, yesterday, and the day before. ’Twill be so tomorrow, and for evermore— Unless perchance you should bestir yourself, wake up, get busy and decide to have an OIL-AIR BURNER installed in your cook stove or range—when presto! your doleful lamentations will be changed to a song of triumph—’No fires to kindle, no coal to tote; No ashes to handle (that sure got my goat). My labor is lightened, I have time to spare; By the Oil-Air Burner. I am bound to swefcr. Not alone in the kitchen are its advantages seen, But the whole house over is more neat and clean.-—Advt.
