[United Press Associatlon—By CableCopyright.] (Received 6, 11.50 a.m.) Paris, March 15. Keronsky, lecturing to members of the Embassy and Legation staffs, predicted that if the present regime in Russia continued, there would be a worse famine than that in 1921, followed by a revolution. .
TRAGIC END TO DEMONSTRATION.
(United Press Association—By CableCopyright.] (Received 6, 11.50 a.m.) Riga, March 5.
In anticipation of a Communist demonstration on March 6, in accordance with orders from Moscow, the Esthonian Self-defence Corps arranged alarm calls at 4 o’clock on the morning by the ringing of bells and the blowing of fog-horns, thus arousig the population. The corps promptly occupied the Government Office, the railway stations, and the military patrols arrested several suspects without passports. They surprised a batch of Communists sallying out with rifles, believing that a military revolt had occurred. The test alarm was carried out satisfactorily except for a single accident, when an overzealous military patrol fired on a limousine which had not halted to show documents, wounding a Staff Major-General and killing an Adjutant.
