faction.

Oyster Bay, June 29.-The resigna-
ton of Chief Engineer Wallace, of the
isthmian canal commission, has been
accepted.
The resignation was rendered at a
conference in New York between Wal.
lace and Secretary Taft He received
while in Panama an offer of a position
with great corporation, the name of
which is withheld, at a salary of $780,
900 per annum. His salary as chief
engineer of the canal was $25,0 a
year.
Administration Vexed.
There is no concealment by the ad
ministration of its feeling regarding
Wallace's action 1t is felt he has not
acted fairly to the government in ac
cepting comparatively recently the re-
sponsibility of directing the canal con
structiOn and now offering his resigna
tion at a time which is regarded as
crucial in the work of the canal. 1t is
said he not only accepted the position
as chief engineer, but sought it, and
expressed entire satisfaction with the
salary given him by the government.
Taft Freed His Mind.
When Wallace told Secretary Taft
that he desired to accept the offer
which had been rendered to him, the
secretary expressed TO Wallace his
feeling in the matter, but he accepted
his resignation after a conference
with the president at Boston, to take
effect Immediately.
Would Remain Two Months.
Wallace suggested to Secretary Taft
that he would hold his commission
two months longer, but after consid
ering the matter President Roosevelt
directed that Taft accept the resigna
ton at once. 1t has not been definite
ly decided who Wallace's successor
will be

St. Petersburg. June 29.-ln view OF

filled with stories of disaffection and
sedition among the troops. Even guard
regiments. it is reported, say they VIII
never again fire upon the people. The
Cossacks alone. according TO these
tales, are absolutely reliable.
That disaTection and discomfort
among the soldiers is widespread ad-
mits of little doubt, but the situation
is hardly as black as painted Up to
the present time there is no reason TO
believe the vast bulk Of the army is
not loyal.

panic over events at Odessa and grav-
est fears are entertained that the mu-
tiny among the blue Jackets may
spread to the army, should some of
the troops at Odessa be won over to
the cause of their comrades. Other
troops sent against might throw their
arms or join the mutineers and with a

the battleship Kniaz Potent and have
been murdered by mutineers. Ii is ad-
ded the mutineers are in possession Of
other warships of the squadron. If so.
the mutiny has control of more than
half the ships of the Black sea fleet.
The admiralty does not confirm the re-
port.
Troops Refuse To Fire.
What appears certain from reports
received at various embassies here is
that Odessa was at least for time
practically in the hands of the strikers
who erected barricades from which the
police and troops were powerless to
disIodge them. Indeed, in one place at
Odessa, the troops refused to fire on
the rioters. NickOlieff. and the neigh

possession of mobs.
