SERIOUS FALL IN STOCKS. DISQUIETING RUMORS. DESPERATE TIMES IN PETROGRAD. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received Nov. 24, 5.5 p.m. Loudon, Nov. 21. Sensational rumors are agitating Russian stocks, which, after a speculative rise in September, have sunk to the lowest point recorded. An unconfirmed roundabout message from Helsingfors declares an army of insurgent peasants sacked Tobui'g ana Urai and surrounds Moscow. Another message reports that the Japanese have had secret negotiations with the Soviets, which the Japanese Ambassadors emphatically deny. Petrograd is precariously maintaining life by burning wooden houses, doors, and wood blocks from the streets. Peasant armies in Astrakhan and Kaluga are trying to break through to join Denikin.—Times Service. KOLCHAK SAFE. HIS ARMY'S ORDERLY RETREAT. Received >/3v. 24, 10.25 p.m. London, Nov. 21. Mr. Wilton reports from Riga that Koltchak arrived with his staff at Tatarsloe, a hundred miles east of Omsk. The Army is retiring in good order.— Axis.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
