When the Uolwhoviki for the second time occupied Voronelz, they massacred whole families, and executed all t'ho priests, 't'ho Archbishop Tikhoii'Tarsk.v was hanged at the gate of the city. All the churches have been closed.—Renter. A GREAT SIBERIAN FEDERATION OF AUTONOMOUS PROVINCES. London, December It. Mr. Wilton writes from Russia that a great federation of autonomous Siberian provinces is projected as a result of conferences by the leaders. This, replaces tho earlier idea of a simultaneous restoration of tho whole Empire, which lias died owing to the suggested administration being unsuitable to Siboria. With the fall of Omsk tho creation of a Siberian federation has become urgent in order to combat the eastward movement of tho Bolsheviki, aiul also to meet, tho economic crisis involved bv tho tremendous slump in the value of the rouble.— "The Times."
