MUTINY ON KAi
BIG WAR
Revolt Modeled After the Russian
Plan?Kaiser Ordered
Every Seventh Sailor Shot |
But Chancellor Michaelis In- i
tervened ? Revolt on Four ,
Ships.
Amsterdam. Oct. 10.?A mnHnv
among: the crews of four battleships ]
of the German fleet occurred at Wilhelmshaven.
One of these battleships '
was the Westfalen, whose captain was '
thrown overboard and drowned. The \
crews landed. Marines refused to fire
on them, whereupon soldiers surrounded
the sailors, who surrendered.
A mutiny is reported to have occurred
on the German warship Nurnbergr,
which was at sea. The men
seized the officers and proceeded in
the direction of Norway, with the in- t
tention of being interned. The Nurn- ^
berfj wag overtaken by destroyers and j
:forced to surrender. .5
Emperor William went to Wilhelms- t
haven and ordered that one out of j
every seven mutineers be shot. Chan- a
eel lor Michaelis protested, with the v.
? u
result that only three were shot, f
Heavy sentences were imposed on the p
others.
After the Mutiny.
Emperor William's vi.?*t to Wilhelmshaven
in company with Chancellor
Michaelis was made after the mu- 1
tiny had been suppressed. t
The chancellor's objections to the n
emperor's order that one mutineer in d
every seven be shot was on the ground n
that he could not assume such responsibility
before the reichstag. a
One of the reasons for the mutiny t
was bad and inadequate food.
1<
The Westfalen is a battleship of d
18.600 tons, built in 1916. The. Num. tl
berg is a new vessel, not listed in the P
latest naval records to reach this E
country. She is a namesake of the r
cruiser Nurnberg sunk by the British r
in the battle off the Falkland Islands j:
in December, 1914.
Von Capelle's Statement.
Copenhagen, Oct. 10.?In announcing
to the reichstag yesterday that a i!
plot had been discovered in the German
navy to paralyze the fleet, Vice *
Admiral von Capelle, the minister of
marine, is quoted in a Berlin dispatch ?
as saying:
'It is unfortunately a sad fact that
the Russian revolution turned the J
heads of some persons in our navy !
and added revolutionary ideas among
them. Their insensate plan was to
recruit representatives on all the
ships to cause the crews to refuse to
' obey orders, to paralyze the fleet and p
force peace upon the country. ^
"It is proved that the principal agi- v
tator conferred in this building with ri
the independent Socialist faction in n
the reichstag, explained his plans to s
Deputies Dittman, Haase and Vogherr c
and obtained their approval. ?
"I cannot make a statement here f(
on the subsequent event which oc- a
curred in the navy. Very few persons a
who forgot their honor and their duty Q
suffered the penalty they deserved. I p
can only say that the rumors which c,
are in circulation are immeasurably c
exaggerated. The combative force of p
the navy was not threatened for a ^
single moment and things will remain
c
NEW CONCERN OPENS. ?

Gibbs Bros, and Sparks is the name a
of a new grpcery concern which has P
opened up in the Nicholson Bank ?
building, in the store room next door "
to Morgan & I Jay ton drug store. The a

RED CROSS RALLY. a

The Red Cross rally which was b
'held Friday evening in the Elks Home

and a goodly sum was placed

Mrs. C. E. Storm, chairman of T
the ways and means committee, with ii
an able corps of assistants, had charge ?
of the rally and everybody had a good '
time. Music was furnished by a F

i
VISIT UNION AFTER ABSENCE
OF FIFTY-ONE YEARS
Alonzo P. Lenox, a member of the
G. A. R., of Orange, N. J., paid a
visit to Union Wednesday. He was
stationed here in 1866, and remembered
quite a number of the older
residents of the town. He came to
Union on the 17th of June, 1866, and
was stationed here 18 months.
Mr. Lenox was interested in looking
up many of the older residents, art.'4
visiting the various spots associated
in his mind with events of those stirring
days. He came here solely upon
the impulse to visit again the scenes
of former days and to renew old associations.
PLANS ON FOOT TO BUILD
NEW METHODIST CHURCH
The congregation of Grace Methoiist
church is planning the erection
>f a handsome S'SO.OOO church. The
castor, Rev. J. W. Speake, is enthusi-l
rstic in his efforts to bring about this
lappy result and is meeting with very
rreat encouragement. He says the
juilding contemplated will have every
nodern equipment for Sunday school
,vork, as well as being handsome and
:ommodious. A campaign to raise
subscriptions to this very worthy enerprise
will in the near future be
aunched. We predict that it will
neet with a hearty response on the
>art of the members of that congregaion
and of the public in general.
:iTY WINS CASE IN
CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS
A case which has been in the courts
or the past three years in which suit
vas brought by the Southern railway
gainst the city of Union has recently

he railway company, upon the conention
that the road was entitled to
00 feet right-of-way on each side

uite a number of similar cases covring
the distance from Alston to
