DEFEAT OF RUSSIAN REDS IS EXPECTED British Government Boliovcs Its Now Policy Is Unbeat- able Weapon. TRADING IS UNDER WAY Cooperative Societies Regard Overthrow of Lenino Now Possible. Special Cable Petpatch to Tn StW. nnnvrlnht. 1510. all rlahtt referred. London, Jan. 21. As n result of tho breaking up of tho pence council nnd tho retirement of Clemencenu, the entire Russian situation has been placed prac tlcally In tho hands of the British navy, the Food Ministry and tho Foreign Trade Hoards, It Is lenrned that tho persons charged with this responsibility regard tho new plans for trading with tho Russtun cooperative societies, while preventing tho spread of Bolshevism eastward, ns taking up n real final Issue with tho Soviet Oovcrnment. Tho Ilolshevlk representative, Maxim Lltvlnoff, In an InteAlcw In tho Vally JlcraUl, tho radical labor organ, says \You cannot do business In Ilussla without the consent of tho Soviet. All trades bi'lng nationalised, you cannot conduct commerce without the consent of the Soviet commissary.\ Tho spokesman hero for tho Russian cooperative toddles replies: \We rep- resent the real Russian people nnd we are doing business In splto of the Tho British Government Is entirely willing to go on, but on this basis: TJiey bellevo they hnvo placed the one unbeatable weapon, an \economic Excnl-Ibu- r\ In tho hands of persons who will .ee that the terror ceases nnd the Rus- sian Government returns to sanity. They believe they have accompllshod the entry into Russia of the one argument which will defeat all tho ravings of the Reds a full stomach and warm feet, t) Hriinrt Are Favorable. I'nder the pressure of these pupplles through the merchants, bankers nnd Intellectuals of the cooperative wcletles i Is believed that even the overthrow of Lenlne nnd Trotzky Is possible if they refuse to permit normal prosperity to return to Russia. This overthrow may bo accomplished, it Is said, either through the cooperatives themselves or through tho moderates already asso- ciated, perhaps forclhly, with tho Red regime. The Foreign Ofllco lets It be known that Its latest reports from Rus-fl- a are very favorable In regard to the way that order Is being kept now. An Impression Is gained that tho as- sumption of relations with the Russian Government Is not now regarded with unmixed horror. Nevertheless, there Is no neglect of precautions against the tpread of Bolshevism. The Admiralty rays now that the despatch of the fleet to tho Black Sea ,l \a precautionary measure In view of the advance of the Bolshevists,\ and that further naval ileps are In 'progress. It Is stated that warships have been ordered to Vladivostok, and It Is reported that Important steps are contemplated In tho Baltic region as soon as the har- bor of Petrograd Is free of ice. In Paris u is said that troops have been promised to aid in the defence of tho nearest re- publics If necessary, although In view of tho naval precautions It Is not expected that they will be. On the other hand.-- ' It 'is learned that trading alreadv is unrtnr wnv m,.n.. of flax spinning and agricultural ma- - ..tu.,llca Him uiucr sup- plies being collected, whilo 400 tons of Siberian butter are being forwarded to England via the Kara Sea route in ex- change for Manchester cottons. Full plans for the development of this trade are in tho hands of K. Wise, the British representative in Paris, whore he is conferrng with eight representatives of the Siberian troops. IlrpreaentnUvea In London. The principal Russian unions repre- sented in London are the Central Union of Consumers' Societies and tho Union of Siberian Cooperative Lnlons. The former has Its head offices in Moscow and embraces some 150 local societies In Russia owning Hour and oil, Need crushing mills, soap, brick and two confectionery works, tobacco, match, fruit and vegetable drying plants and boot nnd shoe factories. The Siberian Union represents thirty-fiv- e cooperative unions with which are I'fllllated 10.492 consumers' societies, creamery and flsherv nsamM-itinn- other cooperative , organizations In the Urals, Siberia and the Far Fast, with ' an aggregate membership of 2,986,620. Tho cooperative movement, which had Its origin in England, was started In Moscow, whero the formation of the I Moscow Union of Consumers Societies nice an instant success, in 1890. It quickly Invaded Siberia, its development following closely the course of the Trans-Siberia- n Railroad as far as Vladi- vostok. Throughout the Bolshevist re- gime It still continued to supply Arch- angel, the Black Sea district and south- ern Russia with manufactured goods, coffee, tea and other colonial produce in exchange for grain and the natural Russian products.

Typhus has broken out anew among the thousands of Russian refugees gathered near Narva, 100 miles west of Petrograd, with more than 2,000 cases reported. The prevalence of influenza and dysentery complicates the epidemic. The total number of cases of tho three diseases under care of tho American Red Cross Is about 15,000. The Red Cross Is mobilizing a largo quantity of disinfectants and will r&celve twenty physicians from Paris, as there mc only thirty Russian doctors In Narva.

SEMENOFF ASSUMES CONTROL OF SIBERIA Also Reported in Conflict With the Cz4bh Forces. Hardin, Jan. 17 (delayed). Gen. Se- - menoff, commander In chief of tho All Russian armies, has Issued a proclama tion declaring that he has assumed the supreme rulershlp of Siberia. Accord ing to Gen. SemenofT's representatives here his assumption of supreme power Is enly temporary and Is due to the fact that the whereabouts of Admiral Kol- chak Is unknown. Tho proclamation Is addressed to all atamans of the Cossacks, and the gar- rison commanders of Gen. Horvath. head of tho All Russian forces In east- ern Siberia. By the Attoclated Tret,. Pekin, Jan. 16 (delayed). Sanguin- ary conflicts between the Czech fortes and troops of Gen. Semenoff, commander In chief of the All Russian armies, are reported to have occurred at tho Trans-Siberia- n railway stations of Baikal, and Mlsovala, in tho Lake Baikal region. The Czechs, It Is said, do not regard tho Semenoff menace as serious, owing to the smallness of his forces. The Semenoff troops under command of Gen. Skipltroff have been dissolved and Gen. Skipltroff arrested by order of Major-Ge- Julr Janin, commander qt the Czechs. This action was taken be- - causo Sklpltroft had operated against the Czechs. ' A Bolshovlkl wireless despatch from Moscow January 10 announced that Ad- miral Kolchalc had been arrestod at Ir- kutsk by Col. Pcpellayev, who ordered Kolchak to hand over control of all af- fairs. A similar despatch several days Inter confirmed the capture of Kolchak, RED SEIZURE OF BAKU OIL FIELDS FEARED It Would Threaten Northern Persia and Transcaucasia. Bptckl Calle Detpaleh to This Bun from te Ionian Timet Beniee. Copyright, 1920, all rtghtt Mined. Constantinople, Jan. 19 (delayed), Tho completeness of the defeat of tho eastern wing of Gen. Denlklno's forces Is such that it nppenrn. doubtful whether ho can hold oven the Kubnn nnd the Torek Cossack countries, on which his military strength mainly Is based. In these circumstances It appears most probable the Russian Rods soon will attempt to seize tho Baku oil fields, which Lltvlnoff has said nro necessary to the Soviet regime and from Baku they will threaten northern Persia and Transcnucaslnn, nnd myu oven Join hands with Mustaphn Kemal Pasha's Turkish ndhercntH In Anatolia., It would uppcar Bound policy for Great Britain nnd tho Entente Powers In general to recognize tlio Trnns-caucasl- republics, Georgia, Azerbai- jan and Armenia, and support them against a frontal attack by tho Soviet forces nd attacks at their rear by Turk- ish Nationalists. Neither tho Armenian Radical So- cialists, Georgian Menshlvlats nor Tar- tar Conservatives deslro Red rule, and Georgian and Tartar hostility to tho Whites Is due not to any sympathy for tly Bolshevists, but to fear that their Independence' would not be respected by the Whites In the event of victory. JAPANESE TROOPS SOON QUIT SIBERIA Objects of Cooperation With U. S. \Attained.\ Tokio, Jan. 21. Japan's object In agree- ing to cooperate with the United States In supporting Czecho-Slova- k troops In Siberia has been attained' and the with- drawal of Japanese troops from Siberia will follow, It was decided at u meeting of the Advisory Dlplomatlc.Councll yes- terday, according to newspapers here. It was asserted at the meeting, It Is said, that Japan had no territorial am- bitions In Siberia and that troops now being sent to that country nro merely to replace losses. It was declared that fundamental policies will not bo affected by this stepi The council Is reported to have Indorsed tho Cabinet's decision not to Interfere further In tho Internal af-f- f fairs nf SlhfiHa nml to rulhprn Rtrlr-tlv- to the Government's declaration when.lt entered Into Its agreement with America In 1918. Washington, Jan. 21. Discussions In the Japanese press and utterances by polltlcnl leaders have developed that probably a large majority of tho Jap- anese peoplo are adverse to entering single handed Into such a vast enterprise nn thp lnvnslnn of Rlhprln. All of the other foreign elements hav-- 1 Ins been wlthdrnwn from Siberia, there remain now only about 8,000 American and perhavs 30,000 Japanese troops, In addition to the Czecho-Slovnk- s, whose number has been vaguely placed at somewhere between 20,000 and 40,000. It Is planned to. remove nil of these Czecho-Slova- by February 16, and the American troops should have quit by March 1. GLAD TO GET RUSSIAN TRADE. . Sncilc I'lensnl, lint Munt AVnlt , Till Ire Ilrenka 1'p. Stockholm, Jan. 21. Announcement of the reopening of commercial relations between allied countries and the Russian people came as a great surprise to Sweden. Nobody here, with the excep- tion of HJalmar Brantlng. Socialist leader, thinks this step will hasten the fall of the Soviet regime, but, neverthe less, it is greeted with general satisfac tion, as an enormous market will be opened for Swedish products. As all the Russian Baltic ports-ar- e now frozen, tho exchange of goods must take place by tho way of Mango or Reval, but the railroad through Finland and the one through Esthonla nro at present unable to carry heavy trnfllc, and trnde must wait until May or June, when ships will be able to enter Kron-sta- dt and Petrograd.

Both states emphasize their Independence on cqunl terms. BU10AE REDS IN REVOLT. Ilnve Direct Wire Connection With Soviet Hnmla. Vibn.va, Jan. 21.
