CONSTANTINOPLE'S FATE.
Debated in Russia, (Australian & N Cable Association). PETROGRAD, April 10 M. Kerensky has officially declared that Milinkoff’s statement, that Russia desired Constantinople, docs not represent the Provisional Government’s point of view. Kerensky, who is Vice-President of the Council of Soldiers and Workers in the Deputies, further declares the La bounties are realising that a Russian defeat will mean the defeat of Russian freedom. They are willing only to conduct a; war of defence and renounce absolutely any desire for Constantinople, and by a majority have asked the Government to express their readiness to conclude a peace, when all the Powers agree to relinquish ideas of annexation and an indemnity. Kerensky adds that if German Socialists think we will make a separate peace, they are entirely mistaken.
