WASHINGTON OUTS GAIN - BARLEY, CORX AND POTATO CROPS ALSO INCREASE. LONDON', Oct. 9. Russia remains the one country sealed to the post war tourist. Until an Associated Press correspondent and another American recently made the 5000 mile Journey from Vladivostok, Si beria, , into Russia proper, through JIoscow and Petrograd and out across the Finnish frontier, no Americans had crossed Russia for more than two years. After Admiral Kolchak's defeat last year Russia and part of Siberia again were united, but the red forces did not follow up their successes beyond Irkutsk. Scattered remnants of Kol chak's forces retreated on foot to Chita where they joined with the Cos sacks and legionaries under Ataman i faemenoff and there again established an anti-bolshevik barrier. Siberia Remain Divided. Then Vladivostok, the Siberian port, fell to local revolutionists who ex pressed their sympathy for the soviet regime but it was understood in Vladivostok the attempt to establish a soviet regime in far eastern Si beria was to be postponed until after the departure of foreign troops. Thus Siberia remained divided, the bolshevik flag flying in the Lake Baikal and maritime provinces, while between these districts Semenoff and his Cossacks continued to hold the black spot" of Siberia, as the bol heviki term the Cossack territory. Thousands of refugees from bol shevism are gathered in Irkutsk. Their one desire is to get out of bol shevik territory, but the Cossacks will not allow them to paas along the railway zone, fearing bolshevik agents in their numbers. On the other side of the Cossack barrier, refugees who have gathered at Vlad ivostok and Harbin during the last three years try in vain to cross the Cossack belt into soviet Siberia. Dif ficult living conditions in Vladivostok have made them ready listeners to the stories of bolshevik agents about ideal life under the soviet regime. Each group of refugees wishes to be in the other's shoes. C hinese Find Way Out. One way is open into Siberia. A detour of 2000 miles, through north ern China and Mongolia, across the Gobi desert, brings the traveler into Siberia across the northern Mongo lian frontier. Over this route thou sands of Chinese laborers and small shopkeepers have returned to China since the establishment of the bolshe vik regime in Siberia. Those few refugees who escape through the bol shevik cordon travel across Mongolia into China and bolshevik agents cross the 700-mile Gobi desert in their trips to and from the Vladivostok district. It was this old-world caravan route that the Associated Press correspond ent UBed to enter Siberia, traveling by train, automobile, horse and steamboat from Peking to Verkhne T'dinsk on the Selenga river, where travel by the trans-Siberian railway again is possible. Wireless dispatches from Moscow state that Ataman Semenoff has ceased his anti-bolshevik activities; has, it is reported, even asked that his forces be incorporated in the bol shevik armies. Such action would mean an open way into Siberia. Jio Sierra for Tourlnts. But Asia never will compete with Europe for the favor of the battle field tourist. There can be no few dayr tours of the battlefields in Russia. There war is a science of great spaces, as well as of guns and men and strategy. In a day Rus sian armies can advance or retreat over more ground than some Eu ropean armies covere-d in years of war. The retreat of Admiral Kolchak's forces from Perm and Ufa ended at Chita, 3000 miles to the rear the distance across the United States from Maine to California the longest re treat In military history. And the distance from the Kolchak front In the Urals to the other Russian fronts is that of the breadth of Europe. SH MAY EXTEND TRIP CONTINUANCE OF DRIVE EAST CONDITIONAL.

(Special.) In dications that Senator Harding will have between 360 and 399 votes in the electoral college at the end of the present campaign are shown by fig ures deduced by Moody's investors service, the first of the important financial bureaus of the country to forecast the coming election. The Moody figures are based upon the Maine vote this year, which af fords the higher total. Eliminating five states, where the indications show that Harding's gain on Gov ernor Cox would be from 1 to 3 per cent only, and placing them in the Cox column still would give the sen ator 360 votes to his opponent's 271. In 1916 the same basis of figuring showed Wilson should have 276 votes. The final result showed 277. The origin of playing cards is one of the things enshrouded In mystery.

Johnson of California, in a. statement last night, indorsed Senator Harding's position on the league of nations. The statement said in part: "Since the campaign commenced there has been no doubt about Sena tor Harding's position upon the league of nations. Some Interested parties for purposes of their own have endeavored to misrepresent him. "Some time ago I remarked that Senator Harding: had scrapped the league. This was denied by some wobbly gentlemen and some left handed newspapers. They may yet in sist that he has not scrapped it; he has only turned his back upon its obligations and seeks its rejection. The senator's forthright stand upon this issue has given the enthusiasm in this campaign and will give him an overwhelming victory in November."
