mutinous battleship Kniaz Potemkine
arrived here at midnight. The port
captain boarded the vessel for a con-
ference with the crew. Throughout
the night the Potemkine exchanged
signals with the Russian gunboat
Psesupe, which so far has remained
loyal to the government.
A deputation from the battleship

with the authorities here for the sur
render of the battleship and the tor
pedo boat which accompanied her on
her piratical trip. The deputation was
received by the general commanding

Black sea division and the port cap
tain. The mutineers offered to sur
render on the same terms offered by

CATCHING AN AMAZON.
Lawyers Wit Turned Aggressive
Woman's Defiant Words
Against Herself.

About a year ago there was tried in q
court Of Kansas City a case in which
there was retained as counse Mr.. Bar
tholdt, who is a representative from Mis-
SOUR in congress.
Among the witnesses for the opposing
side who We're cross-examined by Mr..
Bartholdt, says the New York Herald,
were a man Of diminutive stature and
sheepish manner and his wife, an individ.
ual Of Amazonian proportions and a cor.
respondingly aggressive air. The husband
was evidently very much cowed by his
better half, for when he was being ques-
toned he would from time to time glance
timidly at the lady, as if to seek per.
mission to reply to the interrogatorics.
During the cross examination to which
the lady in turn was subjected by Mr..
Bartholdt she evinced considerable i'm.
patience. Finally, when one question was
urgently repeated to her several times,
she suddenly exclaimed in an angry tone:
Now, you needn't think you can catch
me that way. You've tried that three or
four times already. No, sir, you cane
catch mel"
Madam" observed Mr., Bartholdt, with
the politest of bows, you have no cause
for alarm. l have, / assure you, no
desire whatever to catch you, and your
husband looks as if he were sorry hs
