THE RUSSIAN REVOLT

REPORTED TO BE AT AN END,

TROOPS OF TWO FACTIONS MINGLING

LONDON, 16th September. The Daily News correspondent at Petrograd says that Korniloff s revolt is over. Throughout Wednesday fraternising went on between the troops sent against Petrograd and those sent to meet them. General Kaledin, the Cossack, general, is the only other recalcitrant; He has threatened to raise the Don country, and cut the Moscow-Petrograd railway. '.."■_ An important factor during the revolt was the attitude of'the Cadet Party (the Constitutional Democrats), who opposed Kerensky and the democratic organisations. They offered tb mediate between Kerensky and Korniloff, which ■would have led to a bloody struggle, both in the army and country. This would ; certainly have been to the political advantage of the Cadets. ' . ; (PUBLISHED IN THE TIMES.)
