Reports of the mutiny, which occurred
while the battleship was at sea,
are difficult to obtalu. as the mutineers
refuse to allow communication with
the shore, but it is ascertained that it
arose from the shooting of a sailor who
was presenting on behalf of the crew
a complaint against bad food.
According to one version, this sailor,
whose name was Omiltchuk, objected
to the quality of the "borchich," cr
soup, and was immediately shot down
by a mess officer. The crew then rose
and seized the ship and the officers,
eight of whom were spared on condition
that they joined the mutineers.
The others were killed and their bodies
were thrown overboard.
After a period of vacillation the
Kniaz Poterakine headed for Odessa
arrived here, accompanied by the two
torpedo boats, the crews cf which had
joined the mutiny.

visited by thousands of persons, many
of whom placed coins in a basket at
the head of the body as contributions
toward a fund to defray the cost of
the funeral.
An inscription on the breast of the
dead sailor states on behalf of 'the
crew that Omiltchuk died for tho truth

of the crew.
The authorities have made no attempt
to remove the body, the sailors

"It is thougkt that it may become

three policemen."
Another agency dispatch from Odessa
says that all the shiping in the harbor
was in flames and that the crew
on the Ivniaz Potemkine fired a shell,
killing four Cossacks and wounding
seventeen.
According to the correspondent of
The .Standard, the quarantine station,
harbor warehouses, stores, offices and
some ships had been tired by revolutionary
bands. Alt the foreign ships,
the dispatch said, were preparing to
slip I heir moorings in case of need, and
the Kniaz Potemkine was playing a
searchlight on every portion of the harbor.
St. Petersburg.?More serious, in its
possible effects than all the defeats in
Manchuria or the destruction of Rojestvensky's
fleet was the news which
reached St. Petersburg that the standard
of open rebellion was floating on
board one of the Emperor's battleships
in the harbor of Odessa and that with
shotted guns the mutinous crew, headed
by eight officers, were holding the
ship agaiust all comers.
Consternation in Capital.
The authorities were in almost a
state of panic, and at the Admiralty
consternation reigned. Admiral Wirenius.
Chief of the General Staff of the
Navy, said that the Admiralty had re
ueiveu auvices icgmuuitj tut; uiuuu,),
but that he was unable to give details.
He frankly confessed that the situation
was very grave and that he did
not know what to expect.
Many Sailors Disaffected.
Should the sailors of Kruger's ships
join the mutineers , the Government
would have to face open revolution,
which would spread like wildfire to
other towns in the Black Sea littoral.
The workmen of all these towns, from
which the sailors of the warships are
largely recruited, are imbued with the
Socialistic and revolutionary propaganda.
At Sevastopol less than a
month ago disorders were suppressed
with difficulty.
Every since the war started ugly
reports about the crews of the Black
Sea fleet liave ueen currenr. Men nave
been shot and even officers court-martialed
for disobedience, and recently
at Sevastopol twelve sailors were condemned
to three years' imprisonmenl
for mutiny.
No better evidence of the spirit ot
the crews is needed than an official
announcement made by the Admiralty
that Admiral Nebogatoff and the other
officers who surrendered in the battle
of the Sea of Japan would have to
stand trial by court-martial upon their
return. Practically all the crews of
the vessels which surrendered came
from the Black Sea.
The fact that Odessa is not a fortified
port explains why the Kniaz Potemkine
is able to lie in the harbor
unmolested.
The news of the mutiny, coming just
at this time, when Poland is in a state
of ferment, when agrarian disorders
are coming to a head, and when the
Government is attempting a mobiliza
tion involving aoout i:ou,wu men, may
easily precipitate a crisis, and the authorities
are endeavoring to keep it
from the public.
Newspaper Dispatches Stopped.
All newspaper dispatches have been
stopped, and the newspapers have
been forbidden to mention the mutiny.
Nevertheless, the Liberals and agitators
have many ways of spreading the
tidings through underground channels,
and in St. Petersburg the news was
known in all the cafes at midnight.
The Radicals hail the event as the
dawn of an actual armed revolution.
"The moment for which we have waited
has come," said one in front of a
restaurant when he heard the news.
"Omiltcliuk's name will go down in
history as that of a martyr who precipitated
a Russian revolution."
News has been received of disorders
resulting from the mobilization
in the Government o2 Poltava, some
reservists refusing to appear, and others
starting riots. The authovities of
Poland are unwilling to dispatch
troops, as the entire force available is
needed in that Government.
The mobilization in St. Petersburg
and Moscow becan at midnight. Many
of the reserve men who did not respond
were seized in the course of the night
at their homes. All day long men
were being marched to barracks under
escort.
The workmen were grumbling and
trouble was expected. Sixty thousand
men have been called to the colors. Of
this number about half will be incorporated
into regiments.
An imperial edict orders the mobilization
for active service of reservists
in 124 districts of St. Petersburg, Moscow.

Copenhagen, Denmark. ? A serious
disaster occurred at night near here,
when the Danish cadet trading schooner,
Georg-Stage, was sunk by the British
steamship Ancona. The GeorgStage.
sank in one and one-half minutes.
Twenty-two cadets were
drowned and fifty-seven rescued.
The boys were all in their bunks at
the time of the disaster. The night
was overcast, but it was not so dark
(hat objects could uot be seen at some
distance.
Tbe Ancona was considerably damaged
along her water line.
First Officer Myhre was in command
of the Georg-Stage and saw the Ancona
approaching. He is certain the
steamer changed her course without
warning, or there would have been no
collision.
The Ancona's bow struck the training
ship's side and crashed into it
seven feet, bringing down the GeorgSbioY-'s
mnsts ntirl Hcirinc.
The wreckage so choked the gangways
that many of the cadets could
not gain the decks and, trapped below,
were drowned. .
Those boys who were not imprisoned
by wreckage jumped on board the Aucona
and helped to get out her lifeboats.
Mylire jumped overboard and helped
to save many cadets.
The Copenhagen port authorities
have placed an embargo on the Ancona.
which will remain here until Jie
collision is inquired into.
The Georg-Stage was a schooner, 20fl
tons register, 103 feet long. She was
a training vessel for the mercantile
nurine and was owned by a private
firm of Copenhagen.
STOP BETTING AT DELMAR.
Sheriff and Deputies Occupy Ring and
Make One Arrest.
St. Louis, Mo.?Owing to the action
of county officers in arresting Charles
flpiln n inpinhi>r nf the rtentr.il Turf
Association, during the first race at
Delniar, there were no official odds on
the last five races, and the only bets
made were between individuals.
For the first time since the anti-betting
law went into effect on June 17
the betting ring was deserted by the
members of the Central Turf Association,
who are behind the plan to make
bets 011 the races in a manner not contrary
to the law.
Sheriff Harpel, of St. LOuis County,
accompanied by several deputies, took
possession of the betting ring just before
the horses went to the post in the
first race, but only the one arrest was,
made. Cella was later held under;
51000 bond to answer a charge of violating
the anti-betting law.
Governor Folk, in an interview earlier
in the day, had declared that
either the Missouri National Guard or,
the St. Louis Police Department would
be directed Within the next twentyfour
hours to raid the bookmakers at
Delmar race track.
The Governor has discovered that
Section 14 of the St. Louis charter

Lotls, Rus?;an Poland.?The most serious
phase of tho fighting between the tn
military and strikers is at an end, but ?i
there are still isolaiod attacks in the n
suburbs. At Bnluty Cossacks at- t
tacked a Jewish family of tive per- tc
sons who were driving in a cab to the si
railway station and shot and killed all
of them, as well as the cabman. $j
At Fabjanicif, near Lodz, workmen c<
attacked two policemen and shot and r

In the disturbances thirty-five Gov- j(
ernment. liquor stores were destroyed d
b.v the mobs, which appropriated all e
the' cash and stamps found on The 31
promises and added them to the funds b
of the Socialist party. t;
Prominent citizens telegraphed to a
General Shustow, commanding the 0
troops, asking for protection against pi
the brutality oZ the soldiers, especially h
the Cossacks, who iu one instance [\
killed and robbed the servant of a
wealthy man named Rosenblatt, who rr
was carrying $5000 to the bank. rr
The city resembles a shambles, and fi
the terrible scenes of the last two days u
will never be wiped from the memory tr
of the Polish people. Altogether there ? (
are ten regiments encamped in Lodz.
At Baluty, u suburb of Lodz, four a
Cossacks were killed and sixteen f(
wouuded by a bomb, which was tl
thrown into their barracks. Twenty- h
three of their horses were killed. a
The soldiers are showing what ap- g
pears to be wanton cruelty. Late in b
the afternoon they shot and killed two w
women?a mother and her daughter. p
It is quite impossible to give the ex- p
act number of killed and of wounded, b
as renorts varv according to the quar- ?
ter from which they are obtained. Cer- ti
tainly the killed will be over a hun- b
dred, possibly two hundred, and the w
wounded five times as many. s;
The present trouble began at Lodz
after the funeral of the victims of the b
conflict between troops and Socialists w
the previous Sunday. The Christians o
were permitted to bury their dead, but it
the Jews were prohibited from doing l
so and the police secretly interred the l;
bodies of the Jews ai night, which ex- s:
cited indignation, and Socialist riots b
were initiated. The most serious phase o
of it was when the crowd deliberately v
pillaged liquor shop3 and numbers of b
persons, inflamed by drink, led a crowd v
of at least 50,000 to further and more fi
serious attacks. Pblicc and military a
were attacked wherever they appeared c
iu small force and many individual ti
members were killed. ti
The fury of the mob found full vent,
and even children, caught by the con* I(
tagion, were seen kissing red Hags q
and heard swearing that they were tl
ready to die for liberty. A Jewish
girl mounted a box in the market b
square and addressed an immense . s
crowd. o
Suddenly* the police appeared and u
fired a volley and the girl fell dead, s
Market gardeners coming in were tl
stopped and their carts were used in
building barricades. Wires were p
stretched in front of these barricades I
and the cavalry was unable to charge, ii
Meanwhile the mob had secured ?.rms ii
and revolvers were freely used. Fi- a
nally the military secured the upper tl
band, but not without considerable b
Posses to themselves and fearful
slaughter to the rioters. The soldiers Ii
exhibited the utmost carelessness as 1
to whether tlicy killed peaceful persona li
or rioters, and as a consequence many d
women and children were among the v
dead. v
The streets resembled a battlefield.
-The houses were barricaded with 2
boards and mattresses .and for hours ii
volleys and individual firing were tl
lienrd in every quarter of the citj*. e
Until late at night the Cossacks were h
busy collecting bodies of the dead and o
picking up persons seriously wounded.
The bodies were carried off in carts to
neighboring churchyards. Hence the
impossibility of giving an accurate es- jtimate
of the dead until order is completely
restored, if, iudeed, the full
story is ever told.

the streets with a downpour from

i twilight, ripping off chimneys unci
gns and blowing in windows. '
In this wind and rain storm two*five'ory
apartment houses in course of
instruction at One Hundred and
iiirty-sixth street and Riverside

uried in the ruins. Two of them were
;scued alive after being buried under
je fallen walls for almost three hours,
hile the third, the foreman -of the
ill. died just as ho was reached. The
cad man was Thomas Lalor, tbirtyigbt
years old, of 425 East Seventynventh
street, jnd the injured, both
rloklayers, are: Alexis Salvatiuo, thirr-tive
years old. of (J10 Fifth street,
nd Yaconelf Savois. forty years old,
f 221 East One Hundred and Twelfth
treet. Both were removed to the J.
rood Wright Hospital, suffering from
iternal injuries.
The groans and snouts of the buried
leu were beard for hours before the
sen were reached by the squads of
remen and policemen who strove to
ig them out, and that auy one was
iken out alive surprised the crowd of
scuers and watchers.
When the storm broke there were
bout twenty workmen on the scaf)ld
of the fourth floor. They saw
ie storm sweeping toward them and
astened to reach the street. La'.or
ill?d several of them back, and toether
they started putting a heavy
earn against. tlie -westerly wan,
bich lacked the floor beams to suport
it. They bad Just completed the
lacing of this brace when tbe first
last of wind struck the westerly wall
:1th tornadolike force. At the same
me a small shanty in front of the
uildiug, in -which the donkey engine
as boused, blew down, carrying the
mokestack of the engine with it.
For an instant the west wall of the
uildiug withstood the force of the
ind, and then bfgan to waver. Some
f tbe workmen, who bad gathered
1 the strret.--shouted a warning to
,alor and bis men, but it came too
ite. The high wall toppled over,
napping tbe brace as it fell, and
urying tbe men under great masses
f brick and mortar. This entire
.'eight landed with a crash on the
earns of the third floor, which gave
ray. and from there the entire mass
ell to the cellar, increasing in weight
s it fell through each floor. As the
rumbling of the big structure coninued,
the men in the street became
?rror-strickeu, and fearing that they
rere about to be engulfed, ran. calling
>udly for help. The downpour of rain
uickly drowned the clouds of mortar
bat arose from the ruins, and then it
ras seen that half of the westerly
uilding had fallen to the second
tory, and that the men who had been
n the scaffold were buried under tbe
iass lu the cellar. A hurry call was
snt for ambulances, the police and
Lie nremeu.
The storm did much damage in other
arts of Harlem, and also in the

The messenger boy who answered a ?

and of mournful appearance, and
as he entered the room there sneaked
at his heels a wholly apologetic andi
many-rib bed dog. A guest?the Kan4

strolled up and eyed the pair. \
"Is that your BBP?" he asked.
"Ya-as," replied the boy, in a level
tone.
The man leaned over, snapped hi*
fingers and smiled engagingly.
"Good dog! Nice doggie!" lie
;oaxed. "Here, sir! Come up> sir!"
But the dog slunk back axud his tail
tightened down between his legs as
with a spring. His weak eyes watered
and he blinked apprehensively. He
appeared to have full knowledge of

"Your dog doesn't seem t<\ be very,

The dog's little master eyed the beast
with melancholy approval.
"Don't wan bim ter be friendly," be

Why ?
Why, when buying a book, are we influenced
liv the author's name? Whv hi
an artist's if we purchase a picture? wffl
Why do wise buyers insist upon havin^H
a reliable name on nearly everything the^H
purchase? H|
It is because the name attached is the^B
safeguard of the buyer ? a protectiod^H
against the palming off of inferior article&^H
This "name guarantee" we all look for iiHN
the n.ost important things we buy, ancflB

Everybody knows that all intelligen^E
housekeepers are very particular about thfl
buying of things to eat and drink, and no
body realizes it more than the up-to-dat
grocer, who caters to the wants of his cua
tomers. t
For instance, every veal grocer know
the reason for the universal popularity, o
Lion Coffee, the leader 01, all packag
coffees. He knows that its uniform purit;
and high quality have made il welcome i
millions of American homes for over
quarter of a century. 1
Realizing this he cannot but hand it ou
chocrfully when asked for it. He know
thai the people accept the package as
guarantee of the contents.
Yet there may bo a few grocers left wh
do not recognize that the buyer?not th
se!i< r?has the right of choice, and the;
may want to sell their loose coffee (whi
instead of Liox (.'OFI'EE, which the cufl|
