RUSSIAN MIX-UP.

A SMASHED CITY. WARSAW, May 16. Kieff shows melancholy signs of Bolshevik occupation. In the dead city, the factories are silent, decaying shops are shut or smashed, the university is deserted, tho water supply station is wrecked, and everywhere there is filth and disorder. The Bolsheviks left many wounded shot down by their own mach-ine-guns. The Polish advance on the Dneiper was strongly resisted!at only two points, where Chinese regiments held the position to the last man, and secondly several, armoured cars manned ~ by Germans fought their way through after they were cut off. Russian regiments broke under tho first shock and I surrendered when outmanoeuvred.
