formed of the surrender of the knla2
Potemkmc to the Rounanian author
tiles at Eustenji, but the officials here
have 10 details of the arrangements
made between the Roumanian govern
mcnt and the mutineerS.
NO diplomatic steps have been taken
but the foreign officials undoubtedly
will make the strongest representations
against the mutineers being treated as
SIM IL d-serters. and demand their
surrender to answer not only for mu-
tiny, but also for the murder Of their
officers the bombardment Of Odessa
and Indictment to a revolution.
The glorious proclamation is
sued by the nutineers at Theodosia
Will also weigh heavily against them.
Their crime is one which is considered
20 be the most odiouS by all nations,
and it is thought to be imperative that
the stcrneSt justice be melted out to the
ringltaders as an example to the fleets
of Russia and of the whole world.

soon as it can be reached, will be Or
dered to continue its cruise to kuSten-

crew OH board. There is a strong senti-
ment maEifeStiiIg itself in favor of
Wiping the name of kniaZ Potcmkine
from the naval register, and giving the
ship q new name not recalling her dis
grace.
On the Bourse. Saturday, there We're
rumors that the crew of the battleship
Alexander II had also mutinied and
We're bombarding Libau, but there is
not the slightest confirmation of the re-
port. The government hopes that the
lgnominouS collapse of the mutiny on
the kniaz Potemkine will have a soda
tive effect on the internal unrest, which
was encouraged by the naval revolt.
The situation in the Caucasus is so
bad that the authorities there dared
