Marshal Col. Broughton was badly
bruised in the struggle with one of the
men. He guarded the rear door of the
store after being called and was sudden
~ accosted by one of the burglars in the
dark alley.

Surrender of the Battle
 ship Kniaz POtemkine
NOW FOR THE PENALTY
A Proposal to Teach a Lesson Which Shall Be Terribly Remembered by the Sailors of All Nations for All Time.

St. Petersburg, July S.-The admir- alty late this afternoon was informed of the surrender of the Kniaz Potem- Kline to the Roumanian authorities at Kustenji, but the officials here have no details of the arrangements made be- tween the ROUmanian government and the mutineers. No diplomatic steps have been taken, but the foreign office undoubtedly will make the strongest representations against the mutineers being treated as simple deserters and will demand their Irrender to answer not only for mutiny, but also for the murder of their officers. the lombard ment of Odessa and indictment to a revolution. The vain-glorious procIa- nation issued by the mutineers at Odessa will also weigh heavily against them
 Their crime is one which is consider ed to be the most odiOus by all nations. and it is thought to be imperative that the strongest justice be meted out to the ringleaders as an example to the fleets of Russia and of the whole world Rear Admiral Kruger's squadron, so soon as it can be reached. will be or dered to continue it's cruise to Kusten- ii. take over the battleship and place d crew on board. There is a strong sentiment manifesting itself in favor of wiping the name of the Kniaz Po- temkine from the navy register and giving the ship a new name, not re- calling her disgrace.
 On the bourse today there Were ru- mors that the crew of the battIeship Alexander II, had also mutinied and were bOmbarding Libau, but there is not the slightest confirmation of the report. hTe government .Iieves that the ignominOus collapse of the mutiny on the Kniaz Potemkine will have a sedative effect on the internal unrest which was encouraged by the naval revolt
 The situation in the Causasus is so bad that the authorities there dared not publish an official account of the naval mutiny and the events at Odes- sd.
