Our Petrograd Correspondent has news of an attempted putsch by Lenin and his followers to report today, and didn’t hold back in showing his disdain for this “mad venture” and “criminal action.” Lenin’s speeches are dismissed as having “incomparable inanity” whilst Trotsky’s are dismissed a “rhodomontades.” As far as he is concerned this latest “crisis has had a good effect, that it has created a wide chasm between the Socialists and Leninites.”
