WORKMEN'S COUNCIL READY FOR PEACE.
SITUATION MOST DESPERATE
(United Service.)
May 18, 8.55 p.m.)
London, May 18. The "Daily Express'" Petrograd correspondent says the retirement of M. Miliukoff represents a victory for the Workmen's and Soldiers' Council, which, though repudiating a separate peace, desires an immediate arrangement with the enemy. It is quite willing to compromise with the Hohenzollerns.
There is somo talk of the generals and ex-Cabinet Ministers retiring to Moscow and creating a new Government. Anything is possible. The situation is most desperate.
