RUSSIAN THRONE SHAKING
Red Revolution Threatens the Eupir,
of the Gar.

Red Revolution Threatens the EIup
of the Gar.
Revolution is shaking the throne Of
Russia. All the Baltic ports are in
revolt. Immense arsenals and naval
depots are almost within the grasp of
the rebels. A gigantic conspiracy has
been discovered in the navy to capture
the naval depots at Libau and Reval
and the arsenals at Kronstadt, the
door to st. Petersburg.
The bureaucrats are panic-stricken.
Emperor Nicholas himself is alarmed.
He has recognized the desperation in
the situation by issuing a ukase de-
claring that civil war exists at Odessa
and ordering that the people be
crushed.
lection. If the garrison of that mighty
Black Sea fortress espouses the cause
Of the revolution the government will
be doomed, at least so far as southern
Russia is concerned. The fortress is
filed with vast stores of guns, am
munition and clothing, sufficient to fit
out a rebel army.
With Sebastopol as base the revo-
lutionists could soon secure control Of
every city in the Black Sea region, for
it has long been known that none of
those cities was firm in its loyalty to
the Emperor and the ruling bureau
Gratis. On the contrary, all have been
rife with sedition.
Perhaps, however, the most alarm
ing feature OF the situation for the
government lies in the naval plot in
said to be involved in the conspiracy.
Nobody can tell yet how extensive
it is.
At Kronstadt are the arsenals with
stores of rifles, the arms and ammuni-
ton factories, and the cannon foundry.
These factories and stores in the hands
of skilled workmen would solve the
problem Of supplying revolution with
arms and munitions of war. Eight
thousand imperial sailors, together
with the workmen at the yards and
docks of the naval port of Kronstadt,
suddenly refused to work and practi-
cally state of mutiny exists there.
The revolt at Libau already is seri-

Raise the Red Flag of Revolution in
the Unprotected Harbor of Odessa
Town Fired Upon and Ships and
Buildings Burned.

The red flag of revolution was hoist
ed at the masthead of the Kniaz
Potemkin, Russia's most powerful
battleship In the Black Sea, when the
vessel steamed into Odessa harbor
Wednesday in the hands of mutineers.
The captain and most of the officers
were murdered and thrown overheard
in the open sea, and the ship was COM
pletely in the possession of the crew
and a few minor officers who had
thrown in their lot with the mutt
neers. The guns of Kniaz Potemkin
were trained on the city, and in the
streets masses of striking workmen
who on the preceding day fed before
the volleys of the troops, now infiamed
by the spectacle of open revolt ON
board an imperial warship made a
bold front against the military.
A dispatch from Odessa on Thurs
day said that all the shipping in the
harbor was ablaze. The battleship
Kniaz Potemkin, whose crew mutt
MED and killed the officers, was re-
ported to have fired on the city. It
was rumored that the men of four 9th
er battleships mutinied at Sevasto-
pol.
The mutiny was precipitated py the
brutality inconsiderate treatment of the
crew by the commander Of the Potem-
kin. On all Russian vessels Of war
the captain buys rations for the crew.
The government allows an adequate
fund to mess the crew properly, but
the mess being the captains perquisite
he usually serves bad food to the crew,
pocketing the difference between it's
cost and the generous sum the govern
ment allows him. The crew OF the
POtemkin had been victims of the cap
tain's greed.
Finally, driven to desperation, the
crew held meeting forward and ap-
pointed a delegation to lay their griev-
ances before the captain. The latter
was furious and shot the spokesman
from the forecastle delegation dead.
Then, adding insult to injury, the cap

tain ordered the body tossed over
board. The crew demanded his burial
with full military honors.
The captain scornfully refused the
demand, whereupon the wrath of the
sailors and marines burst out and the
entire ships complement of nearly 700
men mutinied and ran amuck. The
sailors and marines rushed to the
quarterback, where they shot and sa-
bered the captain and all the COM
missioned officers. 1t is reported that
out of all the officers only one mid
shipman escaped. He was epared in
order that he might navigate the ship.
The bodies of the officers were tossed
overheard, then the imperial standard
and the national flag were hauled
down and the red flag Of revolution
run up. Following the example of the
crew of the Potemkin, the crew of the
torpedo boat also mutinied, killed their
officers and threw the bodies into the
sea. The midshipman who was spared
navigated the Potemkin to Odessa, fin
ishing the sanguinary voyage from Sc
bastopol.
The insurgent torpedo boat, with its
decks cleared for action, ran into the
harbor and seized the Russian collier
Esperanza, with a cargo OF 1000 tons
of coal, and took it alongside the bat
tleship. At the same time an armed
pinnace which had been launched by
the battleship steamed to the quay,
where it landed an open coffin con-
tanning the body of seaman to whose
uniform a written paper had been at
tached. This paper stated that the
mans name was Omiltehuk, and that
he had been shot dead by the chief
officer Of the battleship for complain
ing about the bad quality OF the soup
served to the crew. 1t added that
Omiltchuk had been murdered for tell
ing the truth, and that the whole crew
had avenged his death by killing the
battleship's officers.
The police, supported by the Cos
sacks, tried to disperse the crowd and
remove the body, but the crowd sur
rounded the coffin and defed them to
touch it. Some scuffiing followed, but
before there was a definite result the
Kniaz Potemkin Tvritchesky hoisted
signals that the body was to be left
on the quay, and that it would be re-
taken on board later for burial at sun
down with full naval honors.
