Clothed with "unlimited powers”
the new peopled cabinet was pre
pared today to Invoke measures of
bloodshed to stop the rout of the
southeast army and to clean out the
nests of Oerman provocators scat-*
tered thruout the nation. Premier

troops without mercy to shoot down
such of their fellow soldiers who
yielded to German propaganda and
started the mutiny.
The rigorous policy of repression
of traitors And of Oerman sympa
thlrers Is the people's own plan.
The all Russia's workmen’s and sol
diers' and peasants’ congresses
formally approve It. A proclama
tion declaring all who disobey fhs
provisional government’s battle or
ders "will be regarded as traitors
and cowards" and "shown no
mercy" was Issued today.
Petrograd is hoping that Keren
sky will again perform a miracle at
the front. With Tnrnopol gone and
