longer that the Russian insurrection
has now got beyond the leaders and
is taking cn the shape of a radical
revolution. The now government
has bene seized by the working clas
ses in Russia who are clamoring
for bread and not for war. They
have made radical demands of the
Duma while the leaders have gone
to the front to incite the troops.
Finland is reported to be in a
state of anarchy and the socialists
are clamoring there for peace with
out conquests and without indemni
ties which will free all European
countries from oppression.
Confirmed reports show that a por
tion of the Baltic fleet mutinied, kil
ling its admiral and numerous offi
cers. Mutiny is reported to be also
rife in the army. The indications
are that a general socialist revolt is
about ready to take place in all
countries in Europe.
The Grand Duke Nicholas, the ]
strongest ipan in the Russian em
pire has been dismissed from the.
army as its head upon demand ot
the revolutionary socialists because

The situation in Russia is such as
to indicate that the war is likely
to be brought to a head by the
working classes in the affected coun
tries of Europe.

CARRANZA CALLS SESSION.
EL PASO, March 22.—President
Carranza has directed a call for an
extra session of the Cortes to he !
held on April 2. This has no inter- i
national significance, but to meet i
the growing demand for action j
against the now practically certain j
defection of General Obregon. The i
likelihood of an Obregon revolt is !
stirring all Mexico. Owipg to the
positive hate existing between Villa
and Obregon, it is not unlikely that
Villa may support Carranza in his !
suppression and a special session j
may offer the olive branch to the !
former bandit with that end in view, j
Villa is now active around Coa
huila where the Carranzists are do
minant and where Obregon is le
j ported to be expected to start his !
; insurrection.
