IN FINLAND UNDECIDED
St. Petersburg Fears Uprising
At CronStadt and Spread of
Mutiny Throughout Entire
Navy.

st Petersburg, Aug. 1.-St. Peters
burg is anxiously awaiting news OF
the outcome of yesterdays battle be
tween the mutineers and the govern
ment forces at Sveaborg The adj
vices received by the government by
wireless have not been divulged.
The most Importance is attached II
the conduct of the fleet. According
to semi-official intimations, the crews
of these vessels are still under the
control of their officers, but private
advices say that a portion of the
crews have been confined below the
decks for fear of mutiny.
There was rumor in circulation
here tonight that four of the ships ot
the Baltic squadron were in complet.
mutiny and roam at large in the Cult
of Finland and that the mommand-
ant Mt Grenstadt had bcrn notified tc
be prepared for an attack by these
vessels.
II is worthy of note that a dispatcn
to an official agency from Helsingfors
announcing the arrival of the fleet of
Sveaborg and the fact that it opened
fire, but does not mention what II
opened fire against.
Vive-Admiral Bireleff presumably
has gone to Helsingfors to assume
personal command Of the fleet, as il
now develops that Grand Duke Alex.
ander Michaelovich, the emperor
is not with the fleet as previously re,
ported, but is at Gatchina with tn
empress dowager.
The utmost intense anxiety still
prevails with regard to a possible up
rising at Cronstadt, and the genera
spread of the revolt through the en-
tire naval establishment. A persona
visit by a correspondent of the Asso
ciated Press to Cronstadt shows tht
authorities there received timely
warning of the events at Sveaborg

ON
TOP IN IOWA
STRUGGLE
GOVERNOR HEADS THE
TICKET ON FIRST BALLOT
Expected Split in Republican
Convention Fails to Develop,
Platform Endorses Recip-
rOCity of Blaine,

Des Moines, Aug 1.-The republl-
can state convention today renomi-
mated Governor A. B. Cummins for
chief executive on the first ballot;
completed the nominations for state
officers, with but few contests;
adopted a platform favoring "recip-
rocity inaugurated by Blaine and ad-
vocated by Mckinley and Roosevelt" j."
and adjourned. The full state ticket
follows:
Governor, A. B. Cummins.
Secretary of State r. f, Carroll
Treasurer, w. w. Morrow.
Attorney General, II. w. Byers.
Supreme Judges, E. Mclean and
John c. Sherwin.
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton, John F. Riggs.
Clerk of Supreme Court, John c.
Crockett
Reporter of Supreme Court, W. w.
Cornwall.
All fears of a split in the conven-
ton with the consequent certainty of
two republican tickets in the fiel |!
disappeared when Governor Cummins'
strength developed in the district
caucuses held this morning, and the
convention was as harmonious as any
ever held by the republicans of the
state.
Governor Cummns, as he claimed
all along. had a majority of the del
egates, and the action of the state
central committee in adding to the
temporary organization some Perkins
delegates, did not interfere with his
control of the situation. His friends
controlled not only the committee o.
credentials, but secured the adoption
of the platform which they submitted
| to the committee of resolutions.

MORE ARRESTS
IN HARTJE
SCANDAL
DETECTIVES HELD ON ~
CHARGE OF BURGLARY
Attorney for Plaintiff Grows
Angry at Newspaper Mans
Testimony and Threatens
Him With Violence,

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 1.--Just before
the adjournment of the Hartje divorce
trial today, Fred Long newspaper
man, was called to the stand by Ohm
Freeman, of counsel for Mrs. Hartje,
Long testified that Attorney Marion
of Hartje's counsel told him in Feb
ruary of a number of letters in the
possession of Hartje's lawyers. This
was several months before Fisher,
Hartjes brother-inlaw, said he had
told counsel of their existence. This
was also some months before Madine's S
trunk was broken open and from
which letters were alleged to have
been taken, which was in June. At
torney Marion became angered at
Longs testimony and threatened the
newspaper man with violence after
court adjourned Marion is expected
to go on the stand tomorrow.
Probably the most sational incl
dent and testimony in the Hartje dl-
vorce case in the five weeks it has
been running were brought out today
when Alma Ross. the mysterious
blonde" who kept roOming house,
swore that Augustus Hartje and Jo-
sephine Wright frequently met at the
Ross woman's house; that the Wright
woman brought him there and intro
duced him and said that the house at
which she had been living was too
public and too close to the Hartje
warehouse. The Ross woman said
Hartje paid Josephine Wrights room
rent thereafter.
Hartje several days ago swore that
he did not know Josephine Wright and
never visited her. The Wright wom-
an sWore that she did not know
Hartie. This was when Hartje's at
torneys were introducing evidence in
rebuttal.
The issue as to disputed love letters
in the Hartje divorce case was de-
fined today when Tom Nadine
coachman, who is named as core
spondent in the case swore that the
letters which the private detectives
said were taken from his trunk nevel
were in that receptacle.
| Mrs. Hartje swore she wrote only
/ two letters to Susie Wagner and de
MED telling Blanche Ashby what tes
timony she should give. Detective!
Staubb and Anderson, who testified
that they took the famous love letters
from Tom Madness trunk, were ar
rested at the court house on informa
tion swore out by Nadine before Al
derman f. NJ. King, charging then
with entering a building with inten
to commit felony and larceny. The
men later were released on bonds o.
$4,000 each, furnished by Attorney
Edward Hartje, a brother of Angus
tus Hartje.

Underwriters Prosecute Pilot

Victoria, b. c., Aug. 1.-The dam
ger of floating mines has again been
illustrated by the collision of the
steamer Ningpo with a floating mine
12O miles from the mouth Of the
Yang Use. The steamer was consid-
erablv damaged and had narrow
escape from destruction.
Owing to the large number of mines
in the Sea of Japan, Japanese steam-
ship companies are suspending navl-
CATION of their steamers at night.
The American bark Agenor, which
was sold to Sale and Fraser of Yoko"
hama after being raised near Kobe,
has been wrecked under suspicious
circumstances off the Japanese coast
near Tushima on her first voyage.
Witnesses in a case brought against
the owners and Pilot w. Hill by the
underwriters who insured a -four car
go on board, said that the vessel was
scuttled by holes being bored in her
bottom.
Two seamen testified that the pilot
threatened them with revolver when
they attempted to repair the damages.

INTENSE ALARM
PREVAILS IN CAPITAL

st. Petersburg, Aug. 1.-Great eX-
element prevails here as a result of
the startling news from Sveaborg ana
there is the greatest apprehension re-
garding the situation at Cronstadt, as
there is little doubt that the rising
of the garrison of "the Gibraltar of
the Baltic" was a premature attempt
to execute a widespread conspiracy
which involved the seizing of the
fortresses of Sveaborg, Cronstadt and
Sebastopol as bases for the revolving
Black Sea and Baltic fleets. The
chief point now in doubt is whether
the main part of the Baltic fleet has
joined in the rebellion. A telegram
claiming to be from the commander
of the fortress of Sveaborg has been
received, saying: THE entire crews
of four warships have mutinled" If
the Reval squadron has Joined the
mutineers there Is little hope of re-
gaining possession of the Sveaborg
fortress.
