RUSSIAN STRIFE.

The latest news from the fortress
tends to confirm the report that tho
mutineers have surrendered. The mu-
tineers undoubtedly had the upper
hand until the battleships Slava and
Czarevitch arrived on the scene and
commenced to lombard them with
such telling effect that the central
magazine was blown up and the big
gest guns in the hands of the revolu-
tionists were rendered practically use
less.
Although the mutinies at Sveaborg
have been ended and one at Cronstad
has been practically put down, the out
look is still black. The revolutionists,
whose hands were suddenly forced by
the premature rising at Sveaborg, APP
parently are undaunted at these ini-
tial reverses, and intend to persist in
their programme of calling a general
strike.
The strike at Yuzovka Is almost
complete. Troops are pouring in.
Some of the mines have been flooded
and ruined. Agitators from ST. Pc
and are urging the strikers to pre-
pare for an armed uprising, but to
await the signal, which will soon be
given.
1t can be stated definitely that the
first step toward dictatorship may
be taken by the nomination Of Grand
Duke Nicholas to the chief command
OF oil troops in Russia.
At Kursk an encounter took place
between peasants and dragons, dur
ing which six peasants were killed and
three were wounded.

In anticipation of labor riots small
steamers with quickflring guns

down the Neva.
1t Is understood that some ex-depu-
ties belonging to the labor party are
among those arrested at Sveaborg and
Cronstad.
During the disorders at Cronytad
the insurgents wore caps with black
bands In order to distinguish them
from the loyalists. ~
A policeman was severely wounded
