Th threat of the Ruulu anarchists
at Helslngfors to held Ambassador
Francis "personally responsible for th
. II f and liberty of Alexander Berkman."
bos Jail sentence, was confirmed
Monday by the lnlted States Supreme
Court, has given our Stats Department
a new complication about v hlch to
r think.
Ths fart of ths threat has b- :n con-
firmed In an official mmr, from
Ambassador Francis. It comes from the

the Russian force that has put down
the revolution In Finland, or whether It
represents the Finnish counter-revolu
tlon. nobody In this country has a very
clear Idea.
Factions shift and chance In various
political movements In Russia, as they
"a did In Mexico, but the circumstance
that the matter waa cf sufficient Ira
, portanra to Induce Mr. Francis to cable
' about It suggests that It Is more than
the ordinary vaporlnrs of a neclfgthle
group, su i as has threatened our rep
resentatives In Russia a hundred time.
Aaserlraas Are Disliked.
7 W have never recocnlxed the Bolshe
- vk! government, so there are dtfftrul-
ties In the way of making representa
tions to Trotsky and Lenin to guaran-
m tee the safety of Ambassador Francis.
m and there Is no other government to
which we can appeal.
To ths Bolshsvlkl this is a bourgeois;
r nation and the bourgeois are anathema
is every shade and grade of Russian
m radical and the radicals are on top.
There Is no suggestion that Mr.
' Francis Is alarmed ha Is used to
threats and Inured to turbulence but
- the Incident might easily glv rise to
- a serious Issue.
On on occasion while Ambassador
Francis was entertaining guests at dln-
ner. a telephone warning cam that a
. crowd of Russian Reds was en route
to the Embassy to make a demonstra-
tlon because of the conviction of
Mooney, In San Francisco, of the bomb
, murders at the preparedness parade.
lie was advised that the crowd was
" making daageroua threats..
Rrvelrer Cm Met.
YTo asked his guests to leave so that
they might not bo Involved In what
ever was to happen and when the dele
gation of Red: started to force tbelr
way Into the Embassy Mr. Francis
' faced them with a revolver. Through
an interpreter be told them he would
, permit no trespass on American ter
ritory and they went away without
, doing more than yelling.
The possibility of another attempt to
, molent the Ambassador has been dis
cussed frequently since that episode,
but what steps were taken to meet It
are not disclosed. Presumably the
allied leratlons are not without pro
tection, for the parallel to the situation
In China at the time of the Boxer
troubles has been too close to escape
observation and the protection of the
' leratlon must have been provided for.
but a clash between legation guards
and any Russian faction would not
solve the situation.
Apparently no course of action ha
been determined on by this Govern
ment. Officials hero do not know what
the altitude of the Bolshevlkl chiefs
mar b. In topsy-turvey land It Is
quite poeelble that Trotxky and Lenin
might take the pooltlon that as long
a, there are no r-fnvlal relations be
tween Russia and the United States,
It Is none of their business what be
comes of a man named Francis.
Utile Protrctlea Likely.
To the Bolshevlkl there Is no Incon
fruity tn the effort to compel another
country to keep its hands off a violator
of tta laws. The sanctity of a foreign
Ambassador Is to them a part of what
they are attempting to break down.
The surmise Is that Trotxky and Lcatne
will send troop If necessary to protect
the legation, but troops over there have
a happy-go-lucky way of casting In
with whatever mob happen to bo
functioning, and whether th Red
Guard would take on aid or th other
would b very likely decided by argu
ment and vot after an open debate.
Th withdrawal of th American
Legation will hardly do. for mor than
ever th lulled State require to b
represented In Ptrograd now. Nobody
knows what will be th ultimate out
come of peace negotiations at Brest
Utovsk. It Is as likely to bring Russia
bark Into th war as to give her Into
the arm of Germany.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30. How secretly
the United States dispatched the first
flotilla of torpedoboat destroyers last
April to join the British navy in the
hunt for German submarines was told
for the first time publicly tonight by
Commander J. K. Taussig, United
States Navy, who took them across the
Atlantic.
The narrative was related before an
audience which thronged Carnegie Hall
to celebrate the opening of a war sav
ings stamp campaign in this city. Com
mander Taussig's story of the work ac
complished by the Navy's "greyhounds"
far from home was wildly cheered.
"So anxious was the Navy Depart
ment that the outside world in general
should know nothing of the movement
of these ships," Commander Taussig
said, "that not even I, who was in
command of the expedition, was in
formed of our destination.
"My orders were to proceed to a point
50 miles east of Cape Cod and then open
my sealed instructions. Until I got
to that point, at midnight of the first
night out, I did not know that our first
port of call was to be tfueenstown, Ire
land. Britoa Have Welcome.
"We were 10 days in making the trip,
due mostly to a southeast gale, which
accompanied us for seven of the 10
days. So rough was the sea during this
time that for seven of the days we did
not set our mess tables. We ate off
our laps. On the ninth day we were
pleased to be met by a little British
destroyer named the Mary Rose. She
picked us up early one morning and
came along flying the international sig
nal 'Welcome to the American colors."
"They were very glad to see us.
Things were looking black. In the
three previous weeks the submarines
had sunk 152 British ships. We imme
diately had depth bombs installed so
as to fight the submarines. The night
before we entered the harbor at
Queenstown a German submarine plant
ed 12 mines right in the channel. For
tunately for us, they were swept up by
the ever-vigilant minesweepers before
we arrived.
"We escorted many ships and we
saved many lives. I cannot say we
sunk any submarines. The submarine,
I found, was a very difficult bird to
catch. He always sees you first. Only
once did my vessel, in seven months,
succeed in actually firing at a sub
marine. He then went down after the
fifth shot was fired. At that he was
five miles away. But what they are
afraid of are the depth bombs. While I
cannot say positively that I sank any
submarines, I saw results on several
occasions which led me to believe that
I had at least damaged one or two.
"The patrol duty was very trying,
as the ocean was strewn with wreck
age for a distance of 300 miles off
shore. It was hard to tell a periscope
when we saw one. We fired at fish
floating spars and other objects, be
cause we could not afford to take
chance. The submarines grew less

than carload commodity shipment, the
Commission explained that this action
was taken "partly in consideration of
the probability of a return of water
competition when peace was restored."
Further reasons for refusing this ap
plication of the railroads were given
as follows:
"Less than carload rates on commodi
ties are of long standing. Business has
become accustomed to their use and
their cancellation will result in much
embarrassment and loss of business to
persons who cannot ship in carloads
the articles they manufacture or sell.
The increases resulting from the sub
stitution of class rates are unreason
able In the light of all the conditions."
A number of rates Involved In the
decision of today are under Investiga
tion by the Commission, which reserved
the right to order specific changes
In the future.
The decision of th Commission was
forecasted in a degree by its previous
action in giving the roads permission
to file the proposed higher rate tariffs,
In a decision last June the rule was
established that the difference in rates
between coast and inter-mountain
cities should be removed, but left open
the question of whether the through
rates should be raised or the Intermedi
ate rates lowered. The roads chose the
former course, and in October asked to
file tariffs embodying the higher
rates. The Commission permitted this,
and the action was interpreted as in
dicating a favorable attitude toward
the increase.
