The military sit uation in Russia is developing re markable activity. Today's news, although Its comes largely from anti-bolshevik sources, seems to bring the capture of Petro grad, and. perhaps, Moscow also, within measurable distance and the fall of Petrograd Is expected the be ginning of November. General Yudenitch's forces have been stirred into activity by the Ger man attack on Riga and. working in close co-operation with Admiral Kol chak and General Denikine, have made a meritorious advance and reached the big railway junction of Gatchina, 25 miles south of Petrograd. General Yudenltch. who is in com mand of the Russian northwest army, is repotted as finding bolshevik re sistance continually weakening as he advances. General Denikine also has made a great stride and has reached Orel, a point nearer Moscow than ever reached before. This news is confirmed by the Brit ish war office, which characterizes Orel as a great prize. Orel is an im portant railway junction where the main line between Moscow and Khar kov crosses the line between Riga, Smolensk and Tsaritzin. According to advices from Helsing fors, General Denikine's advance has caused such apprehension that the whole population of Tula, 100 miles from Moscow, has been mobilized for the defense of the city and precau tions have been taken against possible air raids. General Denlkine's communique re porting the capture of Orel reads: "Orel was entered after many days of fierce fighting in which several regular divisions were defeated. The townspeople welcomed the troops, falling on their knees and calling out Christ is risen.' East of Orel our troops debouched on the line Preob-razhenskoe-Turemef f." The communique further reports a series of successes at various points along the front, in which some 6000 prisoners and a number of guns were captured and in one instance an entire division was broken up. North of Pavlosk, on the Don, 225 miles south east of Orel, the enem was flung across the river Osereco, and 1500 prisoners and eight machine guns taken.
