peaauts who fled to tlie allied lines
se.iterday. The enemv was evidently
driven out by the constant shelling
to which the Russo-allied artillery
has been subjecting the town during
the last two weeks finally making it
untenable. The bolsheviki are re-
ported to have established positions
in the woods nearby.
This bombardment together with a
shortage of supplies due to the
thawing roads leading south - from
Bolshie Ozerki. is seriously impairing
the morale of the bolsheviki who are
reported to be without reserve pro
visions. The peasants reported that
the troops desired to leave the front
but tlmt the eoinnumi-t officers were
holding them in place with machine
guns posted along the road in their
rear.
The euemj's guns from near Bol-
