a SEVASTOPOL, Nov. 27. The long
 expected mutiny of sailors, who, have
 been on the verge of revolt for months, has come and Russias stronghold on
 the Black sea is in danger of falling completely into their hands
 The situation is very critical. All the shore equipages, numbering 4,000 men, are in open rebellion, having driven away or taken their officers prisoners.
 The Brest regiment of infantry has gone over in body to the mutineers.
 General Neplueff, the commander of the fortress, is captive.
 The Bialystok regiment, the only other regiment in the city, received the mutineers with cheers, but thus far it remains loyal.
 Some of the artillerists have also joined the men in revolt.
 The Euxine fleet is standing in the offing and is still obeying the orders of Vice Admiral Chouknin, but the crews are disaffected and there is grave doubt whether they can be re- strained from joining the mutineers and greater doubt that they will fire upon them.
 There is every evidence that the mu- tiny was deliberately and perfectly planned by the social reyolutionaries, who have been pushing their propagan- da with great energy since the St. Pe- tersburg strike was organized to save the Cronstadt mutineers.
 During the night eight sailors at the barracks seized, disarmed and expell- ed their officers. They then assembled a great meeting Rear Admiral Pisa revsk, commander of the, practice squadron, supported by company from the Brest regiment, went to the meeting and when it refused to dis perse ordered the troops to fire. In stead of shooting the mutineers, how ever, two shots rang out, and Captain Stein of the company fell dead and Rear Admiral PisareysN received a ball in his shoulder.
 Later they were joined by the work men of the port and in complete order, the sailors carrying the banner of St. George and the workmen red flags, marched to the barracks of the Brest regiment The officers of the regiment threatened to fire upon the mutineers, but General Neplueff, colonel and five other officers surrendered and were sent under escort to the marine prison.
 Being re-enforced by the rank and file of the entire regiment, the mutt neers and workmen formed a process sion composed of 10000 men and marched through the city. At Novis- silshev palace the procession encounter ed several companies of the Bialystok regiment with a machine gun battery. Int eAhAitiffeers approached, their bands playing the national anthem, and the soldiers received the procession with full military honors, presenting arms and exchanging cheers. But the Bia- lystok men resisted the appeals of the mutineers to join them and, obeying the orders of Comhander Schulman, marched off toward the road leading to Balaklava. The battery, however, remained with the mutineers and par ticipated in the meeting.
 The sailors from the barracks sig naled their comrades aboard the war ships to join them and also sent dep utatlon to Vice Admiral Chouknin, re- questing him to come to the sailors barracks and hear their grievances. But the admiral in short speech, in which he pointed out the madness and of their actions and the dreadful penalties to which they had subjected themselves, declined to ac- cede to the request.
 The city is panic stricken, and the inhabitants are fleeing The mutineers have stopped the trains in order to prevent the arrival of troops from and many persons left on foot and in cabs. wagons or any other kind of vehicle available.
