SUSPICIOUS LOOKING FIRE.
Discovered by Officer Walsh at 5
 O'clock This Morning.

Despite the heavy downpour or rain this morning Patrolman Samuel Walsh discovered a small fire in the rear of John Burns's feed and gro cery store at the corner of North Elm and Cherry streets. The rear door was at the time partly burned and was still blazing, but was quick ly extinguished on the arrival Of the Leavenworth street firemen. It IS thought that the fire was of incen- diary origin, as it was hardly prob able that the blaze could start in any other way in such place and con- sidering the weather. Only few feet from the door was an oil tank which would have gone up in short time if the fire was not discovered. The building is owned by Mrs Ellen San- dom. The police are working on the case to-day.

On the lake which is used as a skating rink in winter and as a bathing pool in summer boats have been placed. There are only three there now, but in few days three more will be launched, one of which will include large boat. One of the men is all ways on hand to watch the boys and girls and there are three or four large boys that are in the boats to row the smaller children Already the news of free boat rides has spread over the city and Saturday and yesterday there were 500 children at the park endeavoring to take spin on the lake. There are still twenty-six men working at the park and much is be- ing accomplished in the grading and filling in line.

EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE
EXPOSITION BUILDING.

MILAN. Italy, August 3.-Fire which
broke out here this morning in the interna-
tional exposition did extensive damage The
sections devoted to the decorative arts OF
Italy and Hungary were totally destroyed,
as also was the pavilion in which were in
stalled the exhibits of Italian and Hun
garian architecture. The damage is esti-
mated at $4,000. Several firemen and
carabineers were injured
The fire was first discovered at o'clock
this morning in the Hungarian section and
spread rapidly to the art sections. situated
IN an adjoining park For a time the Brit
fsh, Swiss. Japanese and Netherlands Sec
tions were threatened but by energetic
work the fremen succeeded in saving them
The 5ewelry and fine arts sections also were
threatened. but a large force of carabineers
carried the pictures, many of them of al
most priceless value, from the gallery Of
line arts into the corridors of sections be-
yond the fire zone
The city was thrown into state of
great excitement and vast crowds of people
collected about the exposition. The fire.
men, however, succeeded IN saving all ex.
cept the italian and Hungarian sections
though dangerous sparks fell on the Ger
man. Persian. Turkish and Chinese sections
At noon the fire was considered to be under
control.
Some of the estimates place the loss as
high as 81, 100000. which probably Is ex-
cessive.
The origin of the fire is attributed to an
electric short circuit The authorities re-
Ject the theory that the conflagration was
of incendiary.

THE MUTINY ON THE CRUISER.
Details of the Affair and Why It
Failed.

ST PETERSBURG, August 3.-The ac-
counts received here of the mutiny on the
armored cruiser Pamyat Azova on August
show that the sailors expected to obtain
the support of the garrison of the fortress
of Reval. A student agtator, probably one
of the emissaries sent from st. Petersburg,
was slowed away on board. When the crew
mutinied after midnight Wednesday the
cruiser was anchored twenty miles down
the coast. Evidently her commander. Capt
Sosinsky, had been warned. for he arrested
and sent ashore a sailor named Tarosoff
who was regarded as the ringleader.
Two hours afterward the sailors rose and
killed Capt. Saborovsky, the officer on
watch. When he saw the mutneers ap-
preaching Saborovsky made rush for the
carbne rack but the sailors had Jammed
the breechlocks of the carbines and Capt
Eaborovsky was shot, The firing aroused
the officers below, who ran up on deck and
taking In the, situation crowded into
launch moored alongside the Pamyat Azova
and started for the shore.
The mutineers manned cutter and put
of in pursuit of the launch. Lieut.. INK
noysky and two other officers were killed
by shell from the cruiser and others were
wounded. The mutineers in the cutter were
rapidly overhauling the launch when, on
reaching shallow water, the surviving ofi-
GERS jumped into the bay and made for the
shore An attempt was made by the fugi-
tive officers to drag along with them one OF
their wounded comrades, but he was even
tually abandoned and drowned. Eight Off
GERS escaped into the woods.
Later the mutneers hove up the anchor
and headed the cruiser for Reval. Her con-
sort, a torpedo boat followed under fire
from the Pamyat Azova but was not hit,
as she succeeded in keeping out of range.
On arriving at Reval some of the mu-
tineers put of in boat for the fortress. in
order to request the artilerymen to join
them. but the authorities had in the mean
time been apprised of what had happened
and the mutineers were arrested as they
landed. This being seen from the cruiser
the main portion of the crew. who In the
meantime seem TO have remained neutral,
suddenly turned on the mutineers, over
powered them, replaced the red flag at the
masthead with a white flag and sent word
ashore that the mutineers were confined be-
low decks whereupon the governor general
sent off soldiers in boats and the mutineers
were taken ashore. About $50 sailors were
arrested. but a number of students found
among the crew were also made prisoners.
The Pamyat Azova was the cruiser on
which Emperor Nicholas, the heir to the
throne. made voyage to the far east In
1893.

the guards attempted to destroy the build
ings. Police and communal guards were
summoned and a fight followed, resulting In
the killing of the assistant chief of police
and several communal guards and a number
of the red guards. Cossacks were summoned
and separated the combatants.
The red guard consists of the greater
part of the Finnish proletariat, while the
communal guards are made up OF the mid

The government is handling the situation

1t transpires that the sharp firing heard
from Sveaborg between and O'Clock yes
terday morning came from the infantry re-
Inducements dispatched there for the pur-
pose OF constructing pontoon bridges from
isla nd to island In order to wrest the forti-
fcations from the mutineers. Inc troops
were supported by a cannonade from the
fortress on Sandhamm Island. The attempt
was successful and the government nag was
hoisted at noon. showing that the SveaoorS
fortress was in the hands Of the loyailsts.
Some two thousand reinforcements OF
troops have now arrived at Helsingfors.
During the night the telegraph lines were
cut. severing communication with Viporg,
and a small railroad bridge between here
and Viborg was blown up. The bridge was
subsequently repaired.
Trains from St Petersburg are arriving
here after great delay. One OF the railway
bridges has again been blown up with dyna-
mite. but 1t was soon repaired. The casu-
alties at Sveaborg were many, but 800 is
undoubtedly an exaggerated number.
The officers wives showed untiring devo-
ton as nurses. The wounded mutineers
suffered considerably. as they were III pro-
vided with medical supplies.
soldier who came from the Sveaborg
fortress during the day said the casualties
would be shown to number many more than
900. expressing the opinion that the totals
would run into thousands. The garrison
consisted of 6,G00 men.
The leader of the Red Guard, Capt. Koch,
has been arrested.
A number of workmen are on strike and
the street ears not running, but there
have been no disturbances today.

day to twelve years in the Trenton jail on
a charge of embezzlement.

a year ago, while he was mayor. He was
alleged to have embezzled from S1Oo,OOO
to sl5o,OOo from personal friends and from
the Manchester Building and Loan Asso-
ciation, which was forced to suspend busi-
ness No trace OF the missing man was
discovered by the authorities until he APP

dence Six indictments, each alleging en-
bezzlement, were read and counsel for
