SUPPRESSION OF THE ASSEMBLY
RENEWED STRIFE ANTICIPATED.
(RBUIER'S TELEGRAM.)
PETROGRAD, 14th January. ■ Reufer's correspondent forecasts a. recrudescence of the internecine strife at the capital, owing to the belief that the Bolsheviks' intention is to declare the forthcoming Congress of Soviets to be a National Convention in lieu of the Constituent Assembly. A significant fact, is that two cruisers and destroyers have arrived, for which the ice in the channel had been specially broken. The Social Revolutionaries and the Committee of the first All-Russian Soviets are vigorously urging the citizens and the army to organise and defend the Assembly by force.
