r Australian & N.Z. Cable Association.]
RIFT IN RUSSIA. RIGA, July 33. Reports from Moscow confirm the. disruption to the Soviet ranks. It is stated that Trotsky had planned to visit a Regiment that is loyal to himself, with a view to persuading it to march to the capital and seize the Kremlin and the Government offices. The plan was frustrated and the Soviet is now considering Trotsky’s arrest, which, it is feared would cause a rebellion, owing to his influence in the army. Zinovielf is under close surveillance. The friction between tho extreme and the moderate Communists may end in violence. ' BERLIN, July 30. The “Lokal Anzeiger ” states:— Eighty thousand of Marshal Pilsudski’s Polish troops are concentrating on the Lithuanian frontier, where the Soviet is mobilizing soldiers as a retert.
The Socialist paper “ Vorwnerts,” however, discredits t'liis story, ascribing the Soviet’s desire to distract attention from the. internal troubles.
