The crisis between the Bolshcviki
find the Conservative Liberals is at
rnd today.

a climax the violent opposition of
, the Social Revolutionary party. The
Dolshevik leaders freely predict that I
the enemies nre now preparing a
campaign of terror. They named
former Minister SavinkolT, one of
Kcrensky's stanch supporters, with
150 men, as leading this counter-1
revolutionary movement. , I
The Soviet of the workmen and i
soldiers today formally npproved the
dissolution of the Assembly after a
speech by Inovicff, declaring the con-1
ference brought together two elc- j
ments which could not be conciliated. '
FACTIONS TO FIGHT TO FINISH j
In the opinion of many leaders,'
the dissolution means war to n finish .
between the two elements. The
members of the right, who dominated
of the Constituent Assembly, are
planning to go to Kieff or Novo
chcrkask. A widely circulated report that
-Tserctelli nnd Tchernoff," leaders of
the Social Revolutionaries in the
anti-Bolshevik movement, had been i
killed was declared false by the
authorities. The Central Executive
Committee of the Bolshevik), how
ever, named a commission to inves
tigate other shootings in the city.
Red Guards, who participated in last
, week's attack on groups in the city,
blamed the paraders for the rioting.
In the opinion of the politicians here
there la llttlo chance of the Constituent
Assembly leaders overcoming tho Bol
jdievlkl. A few of the lied Guards, how
ever, formally tendered their rcslgna-.
tlons today, declaring they wero being,
used to suppress liberty In the attacks i
en tho Constituent Assembly.
CLOSING THE assembly '
Bloodshed was narrowly averted In,
the closing ot tho Constituent Assembly.
The Ht few minutes of the meeting
wero dramatic In their Intensity. Armed
pallors poured Into the hall and wero
arrayed In groups In tho aisles. Thilr ,
ummander demanded that Thernoff. j
then presiding, quit the platform nnd
that tho members of tho Right parties
leae the hall. Thernoff llatly refused.
A heated argument ensued. Witnesses
today insisted it was only intervention
of the Bolshevik delegates themselves
that baved their political opponents from
Molence at tho hands of the Bolshevik
1 1 oops .
Tho final net of the Assembly was the ,
formal proclamation of Russia us a dem
ocratic republic The speech of former
' -Minister T'eretelll was diamatlc. Ho
was constantly Interrupted, many times
with violent abuse. Ilia concluding
peroration was u pathetic- appeal to all
that tho l evolution ba permitted to bear
fruit In the formation of a Government,
which would show a solid front of all ,
.las3e3 of the revolutionary democracy. I
SOVIETS IN CONTROL
Tho Uolshevikl and social revolution-
' nrles of tho Loft, together with others
who favor a Tan-Hussion workmen's,
soldiers" and peasants' congress to take
. the placo ot the Contlluent Assembly,
' were working hard today to nchlevo
this soil of a law-giving body. Tho
Soviets completely control the situation
und undoubtedly will carry out their
program completely.

BERLIN, Jan. 21.
The envoys of the German 'and
Ukrainian Governments at Hrest
Litovsk have reached an agreement
on peace, it was officially announced
today.
According to tho announcement,
the agreement will "form tho basis
for a treaty of peace."
In making tho announcement the
War Office pointed out that this Is
the first time since tho beginning
of the war that a basis for peace has
been found between any two bel
ligerents.' Tho Ukrainian envoys went to
Brest-Litovsk at the same time as
the Bolshevik delegates, but they as
sumed divergent attitudes.
Whereas the Germans refused to
accept tho Russians terms, they
agreed to treat with the Ukrainians.
Ukralnla is a huge district lilng In
southern Russia belmcii tho River Dim
und tho Aiistrc-IIungarlan frontier. It
borders on tin- Black Sea.
Shortly after the Russian trvolulion

War Cabinet Bill and
Stone's Proposed Address
Bones of Contention
WILSON AGAINST IDEA
WASHINGTON', Jan. II.
Spltlted flghts on tho proposed "war
cabinet" bill nnd threatened discussion
by Senator Stone of "war nnd politics"
dispelled any likelihood of heatless ses
sions In Consrei-s this week
The battle designed to swhl about tho
"iv ar cabinet" of tlnce was to open to
day with tho Intioductlon of Senator I
Chnmbcrlaln's bill for citation of the
body.
Senator Stone's delayed speech nlnied
nt "plajlng politics" and Colonel lloose
velt's proposed visit hero promised to
add fuel to the fire.
With President Wilson and Secretary
of War Baker opposed to tho cabinet
Idea, to say nothing- of a centralized
war munitions purchase. plan, there was I
doubt of congressional ability to put '
the plans across. However, Democrats
and Itepublicans aro likely to unite to
Bupport these proposals, but whether this
will bo sufficient to swing them Is In
doubt.
PIIKSIDENT TO DECIUi:
Some Democrats are hopeful that
Tresldent Wilson may be Induced to
change his views and to agree to more
of a nonpartisan control of Government
and more centralization of munitions.
Tho whole question, however, seems
to turn upon tho wish of the man In the
White House.
