Bolsheviki Meeting Stopped.
TORONTO, Feb. 25.`— A Bolshe-
viki meeting, arranged by the Rus-
sian colony of West Toronto, was
rudely nipped -in the bud by the po-
lice yesterday evening. The gather-
ing, which was to be staged in a
motion picture theatre, was appar-
ently well advertised throughout the
colony, for a large gathering was irf.
the .street just before the doors were
scheduled to open. At that moment,
however, a strong detachment of pc).
lice arrived, and :the leaders wera
asked to produce their permit for tha
holding of the meeting. " They had
none, and neither did theproprietor
of the theatre.Atthis
tho policq.
told the Russians to disperse, and
they did so without giving any troll,
ble. Only one man was inclined tq
protest against police interferences
and as he raised a considerable•dis:
turbance he was taken in custody "oil
a disorderly charge. He gave hif
name as Zachany Zoroschuk.
Revolution Corning In Germany.
AMSTERDAM, Feb..25. — Therl
are numerous indications in Germany
of a very systematic campaign to pro-
mote a new general strike, • says
Berlin despatch to -the Weser Zeitung,
of Bremen.
A revolution in Germany was pre-
dicted by Dr. Cohn, Independent Soy
eialis.t deputy, in an address to the
Reichstag on Friday, the Yolks • Zei-
tung, of Cologne, says: "It is not core
rect to say that the people of Russia's
Baltic provin.ees are longing for Ger.
uian rule," he declared. "The treaty
with Ukraine . is not the first step
coining when revolution will reach
Germany, and the people will take
the fate of their rulers into their
own 'hands"
The Independent Socialists cheer-
ed the speaker. From other parts of
the HotiSe came shouts ofP°'Traitor!"
