DISPOSAL OF TROTZKY.
PROBLEM FOR THE SOVIET.
GERMAN CABINET VIEWS.
FEAR OF EXILE'S INFLUENCE.
Australian and N.Z. Press Association. (Received February 6, 5.5 p.m.) LONDON, Feb. 5. A message from Kovno, Lithuania, states that Leo Trotzky has arrived at Moscow. Ho travelled from his place of exilo in a saloon car with a strong escort. Ho has beon accommodated at a residence in a suburb of Moscow until tho arrangements for his departure from Russia are completed. There is no confirmation from Moscow of this report.
A despatch from Berlin says tho German Cabinet considered tho question of Trotzky settling in Germany. An exchange of views revealed a strong disinclination among the Ministers to agree. It is feared that the presence of Trotzky in Germany and his eloquence might generate a fresh Communist force which would be a nuisance to the German Government. On tho other hand, the Cabinet prefers not to havo to refuso tho Soviet's request so soon after the resumption of relations between the two countries.
