70 BLOW UP REBEL SHIP
Latest Move With Reference TO the
Russian Insurgents
DEsTROYER's pERILOUs ERRAND
Desperate E~xpsdient is Seized Upon
by the Russian Authorities to Clear
the, Black Sea of Mutineers and
Prevent international Complications

st. Petersburg, BY Cable.-A dispatch
from Odessas states that the destroyer
,Smetilvy has left that port with, the in
tention of seeking out and sinking the
Kniaz Potemkine.
With Kustenji and other u~nprotect-
ed ports of Roumania, Bulgaria and
Turkey are at the mercy of the battle
ships guns and with the inability of
Vive Admiral Kruger's squadron to
interfere with her career tacitly adj
mitted by retiring them from COM
mission, this desperate expedient was
seized upon to prevent international
complications and to rid the Black Sea
OF mutineers.
This problem for a single destroyer,
which is difficult and dangerous enough
at best, as she will have to encounter
both the Kniaz Potemkin and her
attendant torpedo boat, is now COM
plicated by the departure Of the battle
ship from Kustenji and ignorance as
to where she will next turn up; but
the dispatch from Kustenji throws a
beam OF hope on the dark situation by
intimating that a considerable number
of her crew are anxious to desert their
leaders N to escape the consequences
OF their mutinous actions.
The Admiralty, however, it should be
stated, does not admit that the Smetil,
Wy has gone on such an errand, though
the officials say frankly that the KniaZ
Potemkine must in law be regarded as
a pirate.
Bucharest Roumania, By Cable.-The
Russian tropedo boat No. 267, accom-
panied the crew of the KniaZ Potem-
kline to enter the port of Kustenji. The
Roumania cruiser Elisabetha fired on
the torpedo boat, but failed to hit her.
The torpedo boat then retired.
The incident followed the refusal of
the crew of the Kniaz Potemkine to
accept the governments offer, made
through the captain of the port, who
positively announced that the mutt
neers would not be allowed to receive
provisions unless they came ashore un-
armed and delivered up the battleship
and torpedo boat to the captain of the
port. If these conditions were fulfilled,
the mutineers would be given liberty to
go where they pleased. The rebellious
sailors conferred together, then refused
the governments demands and renew
ed their demand for provisions. b
was again positively denied by the cap
tain of the port, whereupon the Russian
torpedo boat attempted to enter the
port, but on being fired upon by the
Elisabetha and evidently awed by the
firm stand taken by the authorities, she
decided to retire.

Secretary to Lincoln.

In 1861, after being admitted to the
bar Of the Supreme Court of Illinois,
he accompanied President Lincoln to
Washington as assistant secretary.
Hay was one of the greatest diplo-
mats ever developed in the United
States and a master Of statecraft
whose genius was recognized in every
chancellerie Of Europe. His work for
the open door in China, his efforts for
trade privileges in the Orient, alone
stand out as a monument to his ability.
Mr.. Hay came to the State Depart
ment in September, 1898, at the close
of the Spanish war. He had served
with distinction as Ambassador to the
Court of ST. James. having had former
diplomatic experience in Paris, Madrid
and Vienna. He negotiated a series of
important ~eXtradition treaties, making
1t almost impossible for a criminal to
be safe in any civilized community.
He settled many claims of citizens
against this country and increased our
prestige. He won additional fame in
the Venezuelan tangle. His repeal of
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty was one
of his greatest achievements. His tri-
umphs in the East and his settlement
of the Alaskan boundary question are
still fresh in the public mind.
