Edward Flynn. President of the Alaba- ma District. No. 20. United Mine Work CTS of America. today when asked as to his opinion of the recent report made by the commission appointed to investigate the great anthracite coal field strike, said that he believed the miners had gained a big victory. He said that had the opera tors in the anthracite field have offered the same wage scale and rules as set out in the commissions report. there is no doubt but that President John Mitchell would have accepted 1t. He expressed the belief that the report will be of much assistance to the miners and their or ganization in the future inasmuch as the investigation and the final result made a fine showing for the laboring people. As a general proposition he said he could see nothing but that the miners had got ten the best of the question.

 MobiIe March 0l

Some time ago news was received here and published in The Advertiser of the mutiny on board the British bark Ve- ronica from Ship Island to Montevideo the story causing much interest because of a portion of the crew having been shipped from Mobile. It will be recalled that four seamen were arrested in Lon- don. charged with murder of the captain and six of his crew.
 The London Daily Express of March B has the following additional information as to the mutiny, which was brought forth at the preliminary hearing in Liverpool:
 'The Veronica left Ship Island for Mon- tevideo on October Il, last, with a crew of twelve. A conspiracy was matched ringleader. Otto Monson IS; Henry Flohr 19; William Smith, 3O were charged with him, but Flohr turned Kings evidence and was discharged.

The first mate came to see what was going on. and he was also attacked and thrown overheard. The second mate and others were then sought and shot and several of them being left in great pain before being killed outright.
 Capt. Shaw McLead was then found and attacked, and two days later he was killed by Rau, who shot him in the tenn pie. The cook, who barred himself in the

 "A story was concocted. The seven survivors were to say that one man died of yellow fever, that the first mate was killed by falling topsail, that later the ship caught fire, that the crew escap- ed in the boats. that the captains boat was lost, and that only the six seamen and the cook were saved Two of the sea- men could not commit the story to mem ory and they were killed.
 The remaining five then fired the ship and left her. Nearing the desolate Cajue- ira Island five> days later Rau ordered all provisions to be thrown overheard, so that they could say they had been starv- ing. Finally, after three days on the is- land. they were picked up by the steam CT Brunswick and on the voyage home the cook told the story, which he now retold in court. The three prisoners were remanded for week. Smith and the cook were from Mobile and some of the seamen were secured here and taken to Ship Island to work on the Veronica.

Fire in Cotton Compress.

Shortly after o'clock this afternoon fire was discovered in one of the many sheds of the Magnolia Compress Com pany, among cotton owners by Winston Jones. which was about to be compress ed for shipment abroad. The discovery was made by a boy employed in the yards of the company. He gave an alarm and the other employees about the yard began a futile attempt to extinguish the fire which was yet in its incipiency. One em- ploye called up the police station but in the meantime Dennis McBrde of the Mo bile Brewery. seeing the smoke. pulled box Is and the entire department re- sponded.
 By the time the department arrived the fire had gained rapid headway and it was thought all of the cotton in the warehouses attached to the compress something over 2OoO bales. would be de stroyed. By good work, however. the fire was confined to one section and as re suit only about 300 bales were damaged not bale being totally destroyed.
