RADIO-TELEGRAM TO CENTROBALT

Can the report really be true that Swedish warships came
to Öland Island, landed a detachment and forced our men
to retreat? What military measures of defence and counter-action has Centrobalt taken? What warships has it sent to
Öland, and when precisely?

Reply immediately. We are extremely concerned. We refuse to believe that Centrobalt and our revolutionary
fleet have been inactive. I await a reply.
