’___________________________â€"-â€"â€"â€"â€" “BTW Admiral Unable to Compel Crews to Subdue Revolutionists. lllllllllllill A deSPatch from Odessa says: The "Ed flag of revolution is hoisted on the mastheads of the Kniaz l‘otem- kin, Russia’s most powerful battle- Ship in the Black Sea, which now lies in ‘the harbor‘in the hands of mutineers. The captain and most of the officers were murdered and thrown overboard in the open sea and the ship is completely in the possession of the crew and a few officers who have thrown in their lot with the mutineers.

THE MUTINY . 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 "borehtch" or soup, and was immediately shot down by a mess officer. The crew then rose and seized the ship, and ‘tho oflicers, eight cf who were spared on condition that they would join the mutineers. The others were killed and their bodies thrown overboard. ' The Kniaz Potemkin arrived here on Tuesday night accompanied by two torpedo boats. Early the body of Omiltchuk was brought ashore in one of the battleship's boats», and was landed on the new mole, where it was exposed in semiâ€"state all day. It was visited bv thousands of per- sons, many of whom placed coins in a basket at the head of the body towards a fund to defray the cost of the funeral The authorities have made no at- tempt to remove the body, the sailâ€" ors having served notice that the ship would open fire on anyone seek- ing to interfere with it. A police agent visiting the spot was killed by strikers. THE RED FLAG HOISTED. Dtiring the day ya red flag hoisted on the Knia'l. I‘otemkin members of the crew rode from to ship in the harbor, stopping work thereon. The strike is new general here and the rioters are growing in numbers and boldness. Wednesday night a bomb was. thrown in Cathedral Place, killing its throwâ€" er and a policeman. ' ~ During the )day one of the torpedo boats which accompanied the Kniaz Poternkin seized the Russian steamer Esperanza, laden with two thousand tons ‘of coal, which the battleship has taken on board. The Kniaz Potemkin is also known as the Potemkin Tavritchcsky. She is one of the most powerful Russian vessels now afloat, 12.480 tons dis- placement, and has a' speed ‘of sevenâ€" teen and a half knots. She carried 750 men and officers. AUTHORITIES IN ' PANIC. A despatch from St. Petersburg Says: More serious in its possible ef- fects than all the defeats in Manâ€" churia or the destruction of Rojcstâ€" vensky’s fleet was the news which reached St. Petersburg on Wednesday evening that the standard of open rebellion was floating on board one of the Emperor‘s battleships in the harbor of Odessa, and that with shottcd guns the mutinous crew, headed by eight officers, were holding the ship against all comers. The authorities are panic-stricken. andl at the Admiralty consternation reigns. Admiral Wireniusl, chief of the Naval General Staff, frankly con- fessed that the situation was grave. OTHER WARSHIPS SEIZ'ED. The. Odessa correspondent of the London Standard sends under reserve a, rumor that four other warships 'mutinied at Sebastorol and are now on the way to Odessa to join the Kniaz I’otemkin Tavritchesky. A NIGHT OF HORROR. A dcspatch from Odessa saystâ€"The mutineers of the Kniaz Potemkin Tavritchesky have been joined by the‘ crew of the transport Vedha, who mutinied on the Way here from Nicoâ€" laief‘f. The Vedha's officers are now prisoners on the battleship. was and ship all It would be most difficult to (ie-. scribe the exact situation here. The Kniaz Potenikin Tavritchesky still lies oil the harbor, but at the time of telegraphing she has not molested the town. “or have the niutin-ccrs aided the rioters to the extent of reâ€" pulsing the troops or inducing the latter to join the revolt. Martial: law has thus far been effectiver im- posed. It is impossible to reach the} scenes of the fighting. Any attempt? to pass the soldiers who guard the‘ approaches to the harbor involves‘in-l stant death. l The inactivity of the mutinous sail-i ors is ascribed in some quarters to their having no ammunition. The‘ rumor is at least, plausible, inas-I much as it has been said that the Black Sea fleet was denuded of amâ€" munition to supply the Baltic fleet. Wednesday night was one of hor- ror The rattle of rifles and machine. guns was incessant, while the glare from the burning harbor illuminated scenes of blood. The Cossacks operâ€" .at. l mutineers. ated thirty machine guns on the main thoroughfares, and considering that these were sometimes turned on, densely massed mobs, the estimates of thousands killed and thousands wounded do not seem oXCt-ssive. The losses sustained by the troops are not known accurately, but it is ad- mitted that three police officers, nine policemen, twenty-one Cossacks, and, eleven infantrymen were killed. The, ' v f inutmcers do not seem to have shared in the burning of part of the city and shipping. This was entirely the work of rioters. Many of these, had petroleum torches and others pocket grenades. 'l‘hoy attacked all, the buildings, warehouses, dwellings, and churches and the wooden framed elevated rail-l, road, which served the three harbors,' making a semicircle round the heads of the harbors. The timber work of the railway was soon alight. 1t blazed in all directions, and the cars tumbled below. Among other proâ€"l perty destroyed were the offices and warehouses of three great Russian transport companies, containing im- mense stores. THE VICTIMS BURIED. Omelchuk, the sailor of the I‘Iniaz Potemkin Tavritchesky, whose shooiw ing by the captain of the battleship for complaining about the food led to the mutiny, was buried on Wedâ€" nesday evening in the city necropolis. The funeral was made the occasion of a great popular demonstration. Neither police nor troops showed. themselves along the route. Every- thing was orderly. The mutineers had notified the commandant of the» port earlier in the day of their inâ€" tention to inter their comrade with full naval honors. They added that they would land an escort and the ship’s band, and that if these were interfered with the battleship would immediately open fire on the The commandant thereupon ofTered himself as a hostage aboard the bat- tleship for the safe return of the es- cort and to ensure the safety of the city. It cannot be learned whether his offer was accepted, but in any case the mutineers’ threat was re- spected. Although the day passed practical- ly without disturbance, the mob again became threatening on Thursâ€" day evening. Troops hold the public buildings and guard the approaches to the harbor. During the evening the Central railway station was set bu fire and is almost destroyed. Many persons have been injured, but details are unobtainable. It is stated that eleven surviving ofiicers of the Kniaz Potemkin Tav- ritchesky have landed. MUTINY HAS REACHED BALTIC. A despatch from St. Potersburg says: The mutiny has reached the Baltic. The sailors at the Imperial naval barracks at Libau ret'oltcd on Wednesday night on the pretext that the food served to them was not fit to eat. They secured rifles and ain- munition and wrecked and stole from houses. They attacked the officers’ quarters, firing shots through the windows. A detachment of troops, including artillery, was immediaton ordered out, and it is reported that after severe fighting they repulsed the mutineers, who, however, escaped with their arms. Cossacks and a regiment of infantry Were sent to the scene early Thursday morning. Deâ€" tails of the affair could not be obâ€" tained here. There is an unconfirmed report that trouble similar to that at Libau has broken out at Revel. The Ministry of Marine; politely refuses to give the least information concerning the troubles at those places or at Odesâ€" sa, but oflicial circles, especially the Department of Police, believe that the outbreaks were planned by revo- lutionists, and are manifestly alarmed. Their alarm is shared the higher social circles of the capiâ€" tal, where the long established faith in the unflinching loyalty of the Emâ€" peror‘s armed forces is beginning to waver, bringing inevitable dread that the revolution so often declared to be. impossible may yet be accomplish- cd, perhaps has already begun. It is unquestionable that the occurrences Odessa and Libau have more deeply impressed the ruling classes here than all the defeats in Man- eliuria and the destruction of the navy combined. SITUATION AT ODESSA. London, July 3.â€"A clear view is at last obtainable as to the actual situation at Odessa for the past fortyâ€"four hours. Direct despatches have been few and hopelessly contra- dictory, until last night. It would now appear that when Admiral Kruger‘s squadron reached Odessa and the mutincors on Loard the bat» tieship Kniaz Potemkin refused to surrender. The admiral feared to order the crews of the other battle- ships to fire upon their comrades, and the crew of one of the ships, the Georgi Pobic(lonostelT, joined the The remainder of the squadron at once returned to Sebas topol, and according to Russian oi- ficial stories, the other vessels were put out of commiSsion. There is no reason to doubt the significant decision to disarm the port. , l),\ , lwhole Black Sea fleet, although, in the neighborhoodf’l'hc substantiation of anything but fully. ’lhcrc is little, if any, less donbt that the Georgi Pobiedonoâ€" staff has joined the mutiny. The Ullicors who were landed, from the lCniaZ I’otemkin 'l'an‘itrhcsky have 'tainlng the ,llottirs in l view of the contradictory reports of the past few days, a certain amount of scepticism is perhaps justifiable. If it is true, it obviously bears only one interpretation, namely, that the entire fleet is affected by a inutinous spirit to an extent making it dangerâ€" ous to retain the s\ips in commisâ€" sion. Meantime the mutinem‘s on board the Kniax Potemkin steamed away, and are. now off the ltounmnian coast, their future plans undecided. The Knia'l. I'olemkin 'l'avritchesky is now in virtual control of the lilack Sea, her powers for mischief being only limited by lu-r ability to obtain coal, provisions and ammunition. 'lh> crew of the second warship which mutiniod, the Georgi Pobiedoâ€" nostefl‘, are meantime reported to have repented of their mutiny, and are negotiating with the Governor of Odessa fo'r surrmulcr. There is no reliable confirmation of of the oilicially reported surrender of the Georgi l’obit-dmiostef‘f. It is abundantly evidrnt that n‘ewsgather- ing in Odessa at. the present mo- mont is an exceedingly difficult. task. visible facts is practically imposâ€" sible. 'lill) NOT SURRENDER.

E. Armstrong called atten- tion to the cold-storage problem in Canada. He gave statistics showing the great: importance of the agricul- tural exports from Canada. which amounted to $100,000 this year and $114,000 last "year. Great. production made a heavy demand for careful handling and large accommodation. Our butâ€" ter exports had not increased as they should. flow could they increase when butter had to travel in a. car in a temperature of 53 degrees to 58 degrees, and then 3 degrees in Ves- sels and 90 deg‘ees after arriving in lilngland, and tien compete with but- ter from Argentina and New Zealantl which had been frozen and well cared for all the. way? Refrigerator cars should be more thoroughly insulated and more care taken to keep them iced. Mr. Armstrong quoted figures to show that only a small percentage of butter, eggs, apples, bacon, ete., went from Canada in coldâ€"storage. He moved any amendment that Can- ada annually exports a large amount of farm products, of which a consid< erable portion are of a perishable character; that depreciation of value of such products during transit re- sults in great loss to the farmers of Canada; that coldâ€"storage facilities provided in contract with the Gov- ernment should be thoroughly up to date and efficient, and should afford growth of fruit an adequate return for subsidies granted. Hon. Mr. Fisher, in reply, said that, having Carefully weighed the amendment, he had failed to read into it any censure or want of con- fidence in the Government, and, beâ€" lieving the assertions contained therin were quite true, he would be glad to accept it. At the same time, while complimenting him on the at- tention he had given to the question, he pointed out that Mr. Armstrong had unfortunately mixed up the reâ€" cords of temperatures in cold-storage chambers and in cooled air chamâ€" bers, apparently oblivious of the fact' that these different methods of car- triage were designed for entirely (lis~ tinet purposes, and under both these methods temperatures varied accordâ€" ing to the particular articles car- ried. While agreeing as to the necesâ€" sity of steady temperatures, Mr. Fisher pointed out that the Govern- ment had no control over steamshi K companies, contracts with whic have all expired. But the contracts had served the purpose intended, and there was now better coldâ€"storage facilities from Canadian ports than from any portion of the continent. He produced statistics to show that facilities for cold-storage had never been fully utilized by Canadian shipâ€" pers. The department had found it necessary to advise dock managers at Liverpool that if better facilities were not afforded for handling butâ€" ter Canadian shippers would be re- commended to send their butter to some other port. Mr. Fisher went. with some detail into the question of temperatures, and concluded by again accepting the motion as quite conâ€" sistent with his department’s inten- tions and record. Mr. Chisholm spoke of the necessity for a continuous chain of efficient cold-storage from the farmer’s home to the old country market. Mr. Derbyshire said that butteil shipments are increasing, and cold- storage facilities are now provided on vessels without a dollar from the lovernment, as the companies have to provide them to get business. The amendment was declared can ried. ' e GREAT DIPLOMAT DEAD. John Hay, United States‘ecre tary of State, Expires.
