VLADIVOSTOCK.—Many of the
magnificent mounments of Moscow,
commemorative of emperors and
statesmen, have been destroyed, says
a refugee from that city. Museums,
libraries and picture galleries have
been requisitioned and their con
tents removed. The best govern
ment and private buildings have
been occupied by the Soldiers’ and
Workmen’s Councils.
Military headquarters were locat
ed in the Kremlin when the refugee
left Moscow. Hostages had been
taken from members of the bour
geoise and many executions had
occurred. The city was subdivided
into districts under supervision of
commissions in a campaign against
counter revolution. Krylenke was
state prosecutor. Kameneff adminis
trator of the city. A common sol
dier. Mura toff was commander of
the garrison. There was no muni
cipal duma. Street-cars operated
without regularity. Cab drivers
charged twenty to forty rubles for ^
the shortest trips.
There was no regular food supply.
The inhabitants depended upon pro
ducts brought in from day to day !
from the country A pound of
bread cost ten rubles, meat eight
een, sugar forty, potatoes fifty '
rubles a pood (thirty-six pounds.*
The population was divided into
four classes. Each person was en
titled to one-half to one pound of
bread every other day.
The Muskovites were fleeing to
Ukrania. Over 600,00 persons al
ready had gone there, the refugee
said. Many houses of the erstwhile
well-to-do were occupied by work
ingmen. One hundred and sixty- (
one factories and mills had closed ,
and emptied. There was no coal, ,
no machinery nor machine parts, no j
engineers and few laborers. Prac- ■
tically all printers were out of em- .
ployment since the soviet organs
were the only newspapers published, i
Editors and staffs of all the big ,
publications had long since left the ,
city. ,
The Moscow National Bank had (
been taken over by the Soldiers’
and Workmen’s Council. Only in
surance companies of all semi-public
institutions had beer, permitted to
continue. Twenty thousand Reds
were billeted on the city and a six
months’ course of training for Bol- i
shevik officers had been inaugu
rated. A university had been open
ed for all persons of sixteen years
and upward. The railways were
operating but there was a serious
lack of cars. The sale of valuables
and gold was prohibited All valu- j
ables were listed and registered.
Russian ‘’Liberty Loan” bonds were
offered for sale at sixty per cent
of their face value.
The *un on longer days will make
you feel like throwing away your
old hat and suit. Certainly those
old spots do not improve your ap
pearance, but fo- a trifling sum you
can have them preased, mended and
cleaned at Mrs. D’Orsay’s Tailor
Shop, Third and A streets.

RAN FRANSCISCO —The great
est activity in 45 years is reported
rom Kileauea, Hawaii, one of the
corld’s greatest volcanoes, in a
etter received here from L. W.

n Volcano Research Association.
"I have returned from a pro
r-nged stay at Kilauea volcana.” he

There now are five lakes instead of
one. I have walked, with Professor
T A. Jagger, Jr., the observatory
director, over the whole of the area
of the fire-pit. on the surface of
the lava column, and came away
with a sort of bewildering kaleido
scope of white-hot caverns, splash
ing fountains, and seething turmoil,
imposible of connected description.
Jt is a wonderful experience to
stand at the side of a glowing con
ten feet high, and look down thu
a kind of window into a roaring
inferno beneath, while the ground
rocks and heaves under ones feet.
As the lava will continue to rise
until March 24. we are in for some
very wonderful displays, and it is
45 years since we have had such
intense activity at the crater. Mauna
Loa (on Hilo Island) is becoming:
restless and four great columns of:
--
smoke and incandescent gas have
been rising for some days, but the
absence of earthquakes, and of
night-glow from the summit, appear
to indicate that no immediate erup
tion is to be feared.”
