the future of Chancellor Mlcxe-

will not be ddclded until Em r-

sion of the large island of Oesel. Riga isi some three hundred miles from Petrograd and the i'oads ali'eady are almost impass- able and will shortly be wholly so. How-l ever, even although Petrograd may be safe for the present, military writers look with great concern on the growing menace at Riga. Possession of this gulf by the Ger- mans would seriously threaten the Rus- sian situation and be of incalculable benefit to_ Germany. These writers predict naval actions in the Gulf of Riga followed by an invasion of the main land on the cbast of Esthonia. The Bourse Gazette, Russian, says the situation of the country is compli- cated because a solution must be found not only of the unsatisfactory state of affairs in the interior but of the problem presented by the closing of the Gulf of Riga by the Germans. The Russkaya Violau says: “We are being led toward our Calvary, but per-' haps we shall find our resurrection.”

The internal situation in Russia ap-

pears to be little improved. All parties now. realize the gravity of the situation and each blames`the other as the cause.

It will be remembered that a few days

ago our despatches told of a mutiny in the German navy. Berlin officially denied this but it is well-known that the German navy had prepared for a powerful drive against Kronstadt and Viberg, the sea defences of Petrograd, but suddenly dropped all ar- rangements.~ ~The fact that the mutiny at Wilhelmshaven coincided with the date of the abandonment of this campaign was ta- kento be the reason for this sudden switch

in plans.

Now, however, Petrograd* despatches

relate that nearly a hundred German ves- sels, including eight dreadnoughts, a num- ber of cruisers, a great flotilla of torpedo boats and auxiliaries, participated in the fighting which marked the landing of Ger- man forces on the Island of Oesel and the demonstration against the Island of Dago. It was believed Germany would not at- tempt such a drive unless her navy person- nel were once again firmly underidiscip-

line.
