Russian Sailors Are Reported to Have
lnaueurated a New Rebellion
at SebastopoI.

st. Petersburg, Russia.-Most SEN
sational reports are current that
the execution of Lieut.. Schmidt, which
has made a deep impression through
out Russia, has been followed by an
extensive mutiny of sailors at Sebas-
topol, the massacre of their officers
and firing by the fortress upon the
city. The truth of the story is doubted.
this being the psychological moment"
for the appearance of such wild re-
ports. No press dispatches confirming
the story have been received, but If
the report should prove true the >ab-
sence of these might be accounted for
by the imposition of censorship.
The alleged news came in the form
of two cipher kilograms to a promi-
nent member of the social revolution
ary party, such as the revolutionaries
have sometimes been able to transmit
through accomplices in the telegraph
offices when the public, and even the
government, has been unable to COM
municate. AS translated and display
ed at the Offices of radical newspapers
here, the kilograms say briefly that
the sailors, infuriated by the refusal OF
Emperor Nicholas to pardon Lieut.
Schmidt and their fellow sailors. rose
in their barracks and seized and i'm
prisoned the majority of their officers
The dispatches add that the city OF
Sebastopol is almost entirely in
flames.
1t is also stated that student at the
Psychological institute has received
a similar telegram.
The admiralty affects ignorance as
to the occurrence of any such affair
The papers, in view of the menace of
the new press law, which provides
that they may be closed up for spread
ing false reports affecting the army or
navy, are afraid to take chances by
publishing the story.
