military figure of tho hour in tho
empire which httB Just witnessed a
successful and almost bloodless revo

Nicholas II automatically deprived
Ulm of his rank as commander-ln-chief
of tho Russian army. The heir
to tho throne la an infant and Grand
Duko Michael, named as regent, while
a soldier of reputation, Is not or com

Thus tho nation, the Petrograd dis

Grand Duko Nicholas Is reported to
have arrived at tho capital and the
probability Is pointed out that he will
take command of the troopB.
Of tho complete success of tho revo
