BREST LITOVSK FARCE.
CLEARING UP OBSCURE POINTS LONDON, May 27. A Russian wireless message, referring to the fact that Germany had agreed t& form a special commission to clear up obscure points in the Brest Litovsk peace treaty, states that the Foreign Commissary proposed that precedence should be given to the situations in the Caucasus, Crimea, Esthonia, and Ivivonia, and the demarcation of the frontier, the determination of which was interrupted at Pskoff owing to the Russo-German disagreement. Other points to be settled are misunderstandings regarding prisoners of war and the fundamental principles respecting inter-economic relations. (A. and N.Z. and Reuter.)
RUSSIA'S SOUTHERN FLEET. AMSTERDAM, May 27. Thn "Cologne Gazette" reports that two Russian battleships and eight destroyers escaped from Sebastopol before the Germans occupied the town. The Germans captured the remainder of the fleet.— (Rcuter.)
