known to the naval authorities here.
The mutinous batteship left Theodosia
Just before the fleet arrived and her des-
tination has not been learned. The

kin, was advised of the fleets coming
and so left TheOdosia

temkin took on leaving TheodOsia do
not agree, One rumor says that she
sailed in the direction of Livadia and

is the intention of the crew to lombard
the summer residence of the Car.

kin when last seen was headed sOulhefs.,
as il bound for the Caucasus littOral.
Still another report says that the battle

Mrs. Smith Collapsed.

Mrs. Estelle Townsend Smith, on trial
in the Hastings Court of Manchester on
the charge of whipping her little son
Ralph to death, utterly collapsed yester-
day when an attempt was made to put
her on the stand on her own behalf.
With her face hidden by long black
veil which she has worn constantly dur
ing her trial, the woman fell back in her
chair, crying and shrieking. Her con-
dition was such that her counsel declined
to take the risk of questioning her then,
but reserved the right to dc so Letter. The
woman's husband, Sheppard X. Smith
to whom she was married in Brooklyn
in January, 1899, it being a runaway
match, made a good witness for the de-
tense. He said that the boy had erred
since the age of four years, was rapidly
becoming an idiot and both he and his
wife punished him severely in order to
cure his habits. He accounted for the
bruises and scars all over the boys body
by the assertion that the boy bruised
easily and the marks remained long.
