RUSSIANS IN LATVIA.
SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITIES. REVOLUTIONARIES ARRESTED. Times. LONDON, Nov. 16. The Riga correspondent of the Times says the Latvian police have arrested the seven members of a revolutionary committee, including the Soviet's plenipotentiary—Behrsin. The latter was one of the chief Commissars in Moscow during the Bolshevik reign of terror in 1919. The arrested men had in their possession many passports and much money. The latter had been received from Moscow.
UNREST IN AEMY.
TROTZKY STILL ALIVE. MURDER STORY DENIED. (Received November 17, 11.10 p.m.) A. and N.Z.-Sun. MOSCOW. Nov. 16. The rumour that TVotzky had been assassinated was untrue, as also was a statement to the effect that he and Zinovieff had been arrested. Both are still at liberty. The Riga correspondent of the Daily News says that since the upheaval caused by Trotzky's expulsion from the Communist Party there has been considerable unrest in the Red Army. Fears of a military revolt have resulted in changes in the staff. The paper's Berlin correspondent says it is reported that Trofzky has been imprisoned in the Kremlin.
