TROTSKY'S FATE.
WILD RUMOURS AFLOAT. (BY. CABLE—PBEB3 ASSOCIATION— COPYRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN AND N.Z. CABLE ASSOCIATION.) (Received November 18th, 10.45 p.m.) LONDON, November 18. Rumours continue to be circulated regarding the fate of Trotsky. . Moscow is silent, and the Soviet Embassy in Berlin described as "obviously false" a report from Warsaw that Trotsky was shot while attempting to escape "from Russia. The-correspondent of the "Daily Telegraph'? at Riga reports that a secret conference of Stalin and his closest supporters at the Kremlin considered the question of the arrest, trial, and imprisonment of Trotsky, Zinovieff, and others, or alternatively their banishment. The decision was not disclosed, but it is believed that one or other of these methods ..will be adopted shortly. The real motive for hesitancy is the fear of investing the opposition with the glory of martyrdom.
