GRENADIERS REVOLT.
England's Famous Battalion Again
Refuses to Obey Orders.
THE SECOND MUTINY IN A YEAR.

The Soldiers Claim That They Have
Long Been Subjected to Excessive
Drilling Merely for tho Pleasure
of Their Omcers-Leaders Placed
Under Arrest.
LONDON, April 22.-Yesterday morn
ing the Third battalion of the Grenadier
Guards, now stationed at Chelsea Bar
racks in this city, were ordered to pa
rade in full marching order. The guards
men, who have been in a sullen mood
for some time past, refused to obey the
commands of their officers. i. The latter
held hurried consultation, and it was
through the non-commissioned officers
of the battalion. The arguments of the
latter had some effect eventually. and
after period of waiting four companies
of the Third battalion moved out on
parade in a leisurely and slovenly man
ner, and presenting every possible mark
of discomfort and anger. The. remain
ing companies, however, refused to leave
the barracks. The officers of the Third
battalion then held a second consulta-
ton, and the war Office was notified.
The Original Mutiny.
1t is only about year since the Second
battalion of this famous command, which
was quartered at Wellington barracks,
near Buckingham palace, broke out in
open mutiny and were in consequence
ordered to Bermuda, where they now
are. 1t was supposed at that time that
so significant circumstance as the man.
Hesitation of insubordination by the
Grenadier Guards would cause an i'm
mediate investigation into the COM
plants and treatment Of the British
soldiery. This has evidently not been
done, at least so far as the Grenadiers
are concerned. The excitement in mill
tary circles is equaled only by the cha
grin which is felt by the public at largo
that so thoroughly disciplined a body of
troops as ta6 Guards We're supposed to
be should have furnished two such
startling instances of open mutiny
within year. -'-Sg-------..s.s- $50 -

ELKToN, Md, April %. = Ralph
Hughes, aged 10, son Of the late Capt.
James Hughes, of Elkton, died ON Mon
day. His illness and death are attrib-
uted to hazing when he was student
at ST. Johns college, Annapolis, about
eighteen months ago. Wet papers were
laid under the sheets of his bed, and as
he did NOT want the perpetrators of the
trick to know that he was annoyed, he
laid all night on the wet bed. This
caused pneumonia, from which he partly
recovered, but the disease injured his
lungs and consumption and death fol-
lowed

Placed Under Arrest.

The oldest members of the more dis
contented portion of the battalion and
the men having the longest service terms
were placed under arrest. 1t is under
stood that an investigation of the affair
will be ordered. Discomfort among the
guardsmen has been steadily on the in
crease for long time past. 1t was
claimed by the mntineers that the issu-
ance of orders to the battalion to parade
when the men are expected to mount
guard at the palaces and elsewhere is I'M
precedented. The men also assert that
they have long been subjected to exces-
sive drilling for which there was no ne
cessity, but which was solely for the
convenience of officers, who are thus
enabled to leave London on pleasure ex-
sions. Popular sympathy is with the
Grenadiers.
