Sept. 19. The Czechs- Slovak forces in European Russia are being hard pressed by the en emy, largely owing to lack of muni tions and stores. Within the last 10 days, the Bolsheviki. assisted by a considerable number or Germans, have succeeded in occupying Volsk. Simbirsk and Kazan. The fall of Kazan appears to have been due en tirely to lack of ammunition by the Czecho-Slovaks. The Germans are reported to be concentrating considerable supplies at Kharkov and Bielogorod with a view to an advance on the Volga and to prevent General Alexieff's forces in the Don valley from joining hands with the Czecho about Samara. STOCKHOLM. Sept. 19. Numer ous refugees arrived today from Moscow and Tetrograd, having left Tetrograd on Ceptember 13. They say that the Russian capital is en tirely in the hands of anarchists, and that conditions are worse than ever before. There is no police protec tion or any other means to preserve order and persons are openly mur dered in the streets or held up and robbed as there is no risk of punish ment for the criminals. Armed gangs break into houses. stealing and murdering in their search for provisions, money and clothing. Several of the refugees in this way lost all their property. The report that large sections of the town have been burned, they say. is exaggerated, but very serious fires have destroyed certain quarters, and the conflagrations often spread quickly, as there Is no organized fire department, but only vouniteers are available.

Wearing lall of the decorations for valor which grateful France nestows upon ner heroes, seven officers and 79 men ot the foreign legion arrived here today to campaign for the liberty loan.

Their coming had not been herald ed, but from the moment they set foot on shore they were recognized and lionized. They were even more picturesque than the Ulue Devils" for among them were men of many races and many climes. On the sleeve of every man were wound an service stripes, on their breasts medals. Tomorrow morning, they win pa rade through the city in automobiles and then go to Washington where they will be received by President Wilson. The contingent is commanded by Captain Maurice Clastlnet De Gary. who lost a leg in the Champagne sector In 1915, but Insisted upon re turning to active service. Ladies Lli Standers Walkers, !
