The situation continues to be very difficult. The Provisional Government is in the Winter Palace. The latter is free. The square in front of the Winter Palace is occupied by troops loyal to the government, and encircled by sentries from the division of the garrison under the control of the Petrograd Soviet. Order in town is being maintained- the bicycle regiment is not here yet. Rumour has it that it has been stopped seventy versts outside Petrograd.
