st. Petersburg, jan 2z-That there
has been a renewal of the mutiny at
Vladivostock was confirmed by dis
patch from that city filed Thursday
and received late last night.
/ This dispatch indicates that the mu-
tiny, which began last Monday had
not been subdued and that the situa-
ton was far more serious than during
the outbreak in November, as the mu-
tineers include both sailors and artil-
]erists, who are in possession of the
"Holy Innocence battery and are well
armed with rifles, machine guns and
heavy fortress guns. ~
Gen. Mistchenko, who has been sent
to deal with the mutineers, the dis
patch adds, has no, easy task, as the
Cossacks given him are ill suited for
capturing fortified position:
1t declares that the promises of inn
mediate transportation home for the
men, with which the government end
ed the former revolt, are now scarcely
effective
The telegram, which, bears evidence
OF having been carefully edited, says
nothing about the numbers of the mu-
timers nor of the attitude of the gar
rison as whole. The hasty dispatch
of the nearest available troops indi-
Gates that Gen. Linevitch is distrust-
full. :. : -.a
The number of casualties in fight
on Tuesday, when column Of sailors
in advancing on the commandments
house was shattered by machine guns,
is not stated in the dispatch, and there
is no mention in it of excuses or the
destruction of property. ~
A report that Gen. Selivanoff. the
commander of the army corps at Vladi-
vostock, had been wounded is con-
firmed.
The war department officials are un-
able to give particulars of the serious
ness of the mutiny, which is due to
the reserve men, who are thoroughly
und1sciplined and are clamoring for
their immediate transportation home.
though the government has given
them precedence over the trans-Siber-
ian railroad, in addition to charterinq
all the available steamers for this pur-
pose.

Deer Eat Hav.

Crookst on.-Deer are so numerous in
the north country that settlers on the
reservation south of Red lake are seri-
ously considering an appeal to the
state game warden to protect them
from the ravages caused by the ami
mails. Andy Higgins, a homesteader
from that vicinity, says that the deer
are eating the farmers hay; that he
saw eight together on one day sur.
runding hay stack. He believes that
Game Warder Fullerton should send a
deputy to tnat section next fall to cut
hay for the deer SO that they will let
the settlers crop alone. He says the
settlers are getting out of patience and
are liable to violate the game laws if
something is not done.

Freight Rates.

st. Paul.-The railroad and ware..
mouse commission presented a MAXI
mum merchandise tariff to officials of
minnesota roads and asked them to
show cause why it should not be
adopted as basis hereafter.

Virginia. In a cavern of quicksand
at the Line Din mine, which had been
t'mbered up, Polka Nichni, miner,
was buried twenty feet deep, from 8
o'clock in the evening to in the
morning, and then was rescued alive.
A large boulder, weighing several
tons, together with some of the tim.
bers, fell in such way that small
cavity was left about the upper part of
Nichni's chest and head, the rest of his
body being held by the dirt as firmly
as by vice. The rescuing party of
ten men worked like Troj, ans, on if
teen minute shifts, there being room
for only two men to work at time.
When Nichni was reached, the candles
of the men nearest him were exiting
uished, the air having become exhaust
ed to such a degrees. Nichi is hospi-
tai and will recover.
