Regular Battle is
Fought to Quell
Mutiny.
AZ OFFICERS IN CONSPIRACY
General Strike Situation
Looks Less Hopeful for
the Government.

st. Petersburg, Nov. ia mutiny
IN the Manchurian army is the latest
sensational rumor in this city
According to report a dispatch has
been received from General Line
witch, telling of a revolt among the
troops which was only suppressed af-
ter a regular fight, in which many SOL
diers were killed and wounded.
Forty-two officers are reported to
have been shot for participation in
the conspiracy.
No confirmation of the rumor is OBJ
tainable from officials of the war Of
flee.
Situation is Serious.
st. Petersburg, Nov. 1.-THE out
look for an early collapse of the strike
is more gloomy today. The situation
is distinctly more menacing.
The council of workmen or strike
committee, is manifestly encouraged
by, the extension of the strike in St..
Petersburg, various organizations, in
cluding the bank clerks, telephone
girls and some professional leagues
having voted to join the movement.
Moreover it is certain that the
Workmen's Council has received mys-
terious supplies of funds and conse-
quently the labor element presents a
bolder front. The council returned
scornfully reply to Count Wittes
personal appeal to his Brother work
men, ridiculing the governments pro-
fession of solicitude for the worllmen.
Count Witte's attempt to negotiate di-
rectly with the strike leaders has come
to naught, although he offered conces-
sions in the case Of the Cronstadt mu-
tineers in the event of their being
condemned to death. The leaders re-
fused all compromises.
Witte Fails.
"All or nothing" was their reply.
News from the provinces shows prac'
tically no movement has been started
in support of the general strike, but
there is a suspicion that there may be
lulls in the preparations.
The social Democrats and revolu-
tionists are keeping their plans in the
dark. The organizations have branch
es through the country and at signal
they might be able 10 bring the indus
tries of the country to a standstill.
Liberals Mistake.
Profound depression exists in the
liberal camp. Many of the leaders now
believe they made a fatal blunder in.
rejecting Whites request for co-opera-
ton with the government in working
out the reforms, as they thereby prac-
tically surrendered their leadership
to the Radicals, with whom the Lib
erals have as little sympathy as they
had with the old regime. The result
is that the Radicals are intoxicated by
the taste of power, and are trying to
drive the country into anarchy
Public sympathy is rapidly alienat-
ing itself from them and rather than
the present state of decentralization, a
large portion of the better classes
would almost prefer repression.

WILL GIVE RELIEF.
Santa Fe Hebrews to Contribute to
Fund for Sufferers in Russia
S. Spitz in Charge.

S. Spitz, the Plaza jeweler. of this
city, is IN receipt of letter from Rab.
bi Jacob H. Kaplan of Albuquerque, in
which the Rabbi quotes the following
message received by him from Jacob
II. Schiff, New York Jewish philan-
thropist, and treasurer of the Ameri-
can Jewish committee which is col
lecting funds for the relief of the
Russian Jews, whose property was
destroyed during the recent riots In
the domain Of the Gar The letter
| reads:
"On behalf of the national commit.
tee for relief of sufferers by Russian
massacres, of which | have been ap-
pointed treasurer, we urge you and
your associates to call a meeting of
the Jewish community to form a
branch committee and collect funds.
The necessities are very great and
The conditions appalling
JACOB H. SCHIFF.'
Rabbi Kaplan declares that com.
mittee has been organized in Albu-
querque and that all Jews are respond
ing to the appeal for funds in lib.
eral manner, and closes his letter to
Mr.. Spitz with a request that the lat.
ter do all in his power to help the
movement along in Santa Fe.
Il shall take the matter up at once"
said Mr.. Spitz, "as | believe that our
co-religionists in Russia should be
extended all possible aid toward the
alienation of their sufferings"
81 am sure that every member of
the Jewish faith in Santa Fe will re.
spond heartily to the appeal Every
one is familiar with the outrages that
have been committed against the Jews
in Russia, and | feel sure that many
Santa Fe citizens will be glad to
contribute to this cause, although we
shall not ask contributions of anyone
but our own people"
Leo Hersch, when interviewed in
reference to the matter, stated that
he was in sympathy with the move
ment and would do all in his power
to further the aims OF the committee
having the matter in charge, as did
Arthur Seligman, and several other
prominent merchants.
In all probability a branch commit |
tee will be organized here and the |
matter of contributions taken up at !
once. Mr. Spitz expects to be able to
raise several hundred dollars in this
city, as the movement is for the re-
lief of suffering humanity, and there.
fore a worthy one.
Worse Than Expected.
New York, Nov. 17.--Jacob H.
Schiff OF this city today received the
following cablegram from Lord Roths-
child in London:
The Russian catastrophe according
to details from Russia of today, were
far greater than expected. There were
outrages, murder and wholesale rob-
berry and incendiarism in eighty-four
towns, so relief fund has huge task
to grapple with.

Both Sides Come to
an Agreement
Late Today.
JUDGE DISCHARGES THE JURY
According to Settlement Plain
tiffs May Occupy Land
for Limited Time.

The case of the Protective Associa-
tion Of the town of Costiila versus
the United States Freehold Land and
Irrigation Company which has been
on trial in the First Judicial District
Court for the past three weeks, came
to an abrupt end this afternoon at
o'clock when the attorneys for both
sides got together, and by making mu-
tual concessions in written agree
ment caused the case to be decided
by agreement, instead of continuing
with the expensive hearing of wit
nesses and letting the case be tried on
its merits.
May Retain Land.
1t is understood that by the agree .
ment the settlers now in possession of
the land in and around Costilla will
be allowed to retain certain amount
OF the land for certain length of
time, but owing to the fact that at the
time of going to press the agreement
had not been signed its full terms
cannot be given before tomorrow.
Albert Smith, an attorney for the
defense, assisted by the firm of Alb
bott and Abbott, of this city drew up
the agreement, which was submitted
to 0. A. Larazola and C. A. Spies, of
Las Vegas, attorneys for the plain

few minor changes.

Judge John r. ,McFie this afternoon
discharged the jury which had been
impanneled in the case, and ton,ors

Talk about the grabbing propensities
of Republican politicians Friends Of the
Fagan administration have been busy in
| Trenton this year, but thus far they have
not accomplished much in the way Of
partisan legislation. They have secured
the enactment Of laws making a place
here aud there, but nothing that would
attract attention appeared on the sur
face nntil yesterday, when it was dis
covered that an amendment had been
tackled on to a pending bill that would
make the President of the Board of FL
nance Acting Mayor in the event of any
thing happening to the Mayor The pur-
( pose of this is to make certain that the
Republicans would be in control of the
administration. There is a chance of the
Democrats having the President of the
! Board Of Aldermen, even though they
should lose the Mayoralty, while they
wonld have no chance of getting the ap-
pointing. of President of the Board Of
/ Finance. This is ahont the rankest pieea
of partisan politics that has been at
tempted IN a long while, and it was left
for Jersey Citg Republicans to conceive
the scheme. Now that the discovery has

ment that the time allowed the special

had been too short to complete the work,

ment of the work Of the committee would

Mr.. Riker said he had worked until
very late last night preparing rough.
| draft Of some Of the amendments, but
that he had been unable to discuss them
either with Assemblyman Duifield or the
other members of the committee. He
| thought it might lead to misupderstand-

the committeeman to discuss the rough
draft publicly.

Chairman Plaut suggested that vote be
taken on the desirability of having the
