. . Moscow. Aug. . 29. At the third gen
eral sitting of the national conference
railway representatives, including M.
Froloff, of the engineers alliance, re
ported that there existed a state of
utter disorganization of transporta
tion which,-unless improved, would
cease completely by November. The
representatives gave warning that the
consequences' would be terrible both
i at home and on the front and that
the army might turn on the country
and commit ; unexampled excesses.
The extreme demands of the rail
way, workers, the speakers said, play
ed an important part in thi'3 disorgan
ization. They called, on all those en
gaged in the transport service to sac
rifice personal interests for those of
the country. .

resentative of the Jews, said that they
