Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, thm Now Tork World. Published by ar rangement) STOCKHOLM. Sept 23. (Special.) The red terror is reaching; a vast scale In the provinces of Russia. Hundreds of obscure murders are daily instigated from Moscow, where Lenine is trying to "carry class war into the villages. Tne Moscow official organs are printing; from 40 to 60 provincial exe cutions daily. It Is difficult to believe this, so I shall only show the state of terror by ex tracts from the few Bolsheviki papers that happen to reach Stockholm. They are mostly confiscated on the Russian frontier. .".'

The shooting's in the provinces are mostly In answer to the attempt on Lenlne's life, although probably none of the victims ever saw Dora Kaplan and none ' was Implicated In her at ' tempt. Dora Kaplan was a member of the octal revolutionist terrorists, while the executions in the provinces are taose of the non-political bourgeolse. The whole tenor of the Bolsheviki press Is to spur ahe mob to violence under an evident government policy. In cities where apartment houses the common form of habitation lat terly became fortresses under govern ment house committees, they are now divided against themselves by ' order f Lenine. Deatk ' of Foes Proclaimed. The Petrograd Soviet-of September I. In citing this new domestic terror resolved, according' to the Petrograd Pravda, that the "bourgeolse murders were aiming a blow at the heart of the proletariat revolution.

The same Issue of Pravda publishes an appeal from Moscow for a general assassination of officers. - The Petrograd Communa, of Septem ber .7. explaining why 29 officials of the old regime. Including a bishop, were executed at Moscow, says: "As explained by Comrade Krylenko, bead of the revolutionary tribunals, these executions are an act of red ter ror announced after the attempt on the life on Lenine and are accordingly the decision of the Extraordinary Com mission against counter-revolution, sabotage and specu.'ayon."
