hold on the Black Sea is in danger of
falling completely into their hands.
The situation is critical, All the shore
equipages, numbering 1000 men, are in
open rebellion, having driven away or
taken the officers prisoners. The Brest
regiment of infantry has gone over to
the mutineers. General Ncpluefr, com
mander of the fortress is a captive. The
Bielostok regiment, the only other regi.
ment in the city, received the mutineers
with cheers, but thus far remains loyal.
Some artillerists have joined the men in
the revolt.
Marines Also Disaffected.
The ENine fleet is standing in the
offing and still obeying the orders of
Admiral Choukin, but the crews are dis.

neers, and greater doubt il they fire
upon them. The Seventh army corps
was hastily summoned from Simferopol.
There is every evidence that the mutiny
was deliberately planned by social revo.
lutionists, who have been pushing their
propaganda with great energy since the
ST. Petersburg strike, organized to save
the Kronstadt mutineers.
Friday, eight sailors seized and dis
armed and expelled their officers. Then
assembled great meeting. Admiral
supported by a company,
from the Brest regiment, went to the
meeting, and when IL refused to disperse
ordered the troops TO fire. Instead of
shooting the mutineers two shots mng

Defeat Omaha Team in Armory
by Close Score

The girls basketball team of the state
university defeated the Y. NJ. c. A. team
of Omaha last night in the university
armory by a score of % TO 81.
This gives the Minnesota girls clear
title to the championship of the west. as
the Omaha team has recently defeated the
Nebraska university girls, who were the
only other claimants for championship
honors, in a series of contests.
The game was a very close one and
well played on both sides. The Mime
sofa girls, however, showed marked Su-
periority in all departments of the game,
which is not represented by the score.
The tall center Of the Omaha team. Edith
Baker, threw all the baskets for her team,
while Ethel Marshall did the throwing on
fouls. of which the game was exception
ally free.
The first half ended with the score 13
to IL in MinneSota's favor. In the sec
ond half Julia BearneS replaced Rowena
Harding at center, for Minnesota. During
this half the score was repeatedly tied
and the game became very exciting from
the spectators point of view. When
time was called the score stood % to Il
in Minnesota's favor.
Mr.. Miller of Nebraska refereed the
game. The lineups were as follows:
Minnesota-Rowena Harding. Julia
Bearnes. center: Sylvia Frank and Hattie
Van Bergen, forwards; Bessie Cox and
Clara BearneS guards.
Omaha-Edith Baker. center; Marguer-
lite Johnson and Elsie Mengedolen, guards;

declared IL was an accident.
Mrs Trefoni had called at the branch
OF the charities department, Third ave-

told the officials her story, and asked
that Frank be committed to an insti-

Fifteen minutes later Policeman
Stoppe found her weeping on the steps
or the building. He ordered her to

curb. then sank down, overcome, and
began weeping again. The policeman
told her she must not remain there.
She arose and started to cross Third

keep the little household together had
unbalanced the woman's mind.

hundreds were unable to obtain any at
