MUTiNY ON WAasHIPs7
st. Petersburg. Fears Rebels Have
Seized Battieship and Cruisers.

st. Petersburg Fears Rebels Have
Seized Battfeship and Cruisers.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 2-Intense anxi-
ETY. is felt over the result Yof the fight
between rebels and loyal troops In
Sveaborg fortress. The authorities re-
fuse to divulge the news they get from
Helsingfors by wireless telegraphy.
The rebels have damaged most of the
land telegraph wires out of that city.
Every importance Is attached to the
conduct Of the sailors on the battle
ship Slava and the three cruisers of
the Baltic fleet, which have gone to
Helsingfors from Revel. The crews
of those vessels are still controlled by
their officers, 1t is announced semi
officially. But private advices say part
of their crews has been confined be-
low deck for fear of mutiny.
A rumor is circulating here that four
crews have mutinied, that the vessels
are roaming the gulf of Finland and
that the commandant at Cronstadt has
been warned to prepare for an attack
by them.
Grand Duke Alexander Mtchaelo-
witch, the emperor's brother, is not
with the feet, as previously reported,
but at Gatchlna, with the czar's
mother.
Everything confirms the belief that
the mutiny at Sveaborg was prema-
ture; that the plot, when ripe, was to
seize the fortresses at Sveaborg; Cron-
stadt and Sevastopol as bases for the
Baltic and Black sea fleets, which
were to mutiny.
The authorities at Cronstadt were
warned in time. On Tuesday night,
without show Of force, they placed de-
tachments of infantry at the gates of
the great naval barracks there. The
.carbines were taken from the racks
in the barracks.
Fifteen thousand sailors of the
Seventh equipage, quartered at Cron-
stadt, whose loyalty had been distrust-
ed, found themselves prisoners. They.
could look from the barracks win
dows, but could not communicate
with any one outside.
The streets of Cronstadt are swarm
ing with troops of the loyal guard
regiments and newly arrived men of
the Twenty fourth division.
i The workingmen's councils here and
in Moscow have issued warnings to
the labor organizations throughout the
country to be ready TO strike, and the
revolutionary military committee is
acting with energy. They declare that
the crews of the warships at St
Petersburg are with them and that If
the Cronstadt squadron has mutsnied
all the ships in the Baltic will soon
be In their hands.
Revolutionary emissaries have been
sent to the ports of Revel, Riga and
Libau, and If they arouse the sailors
the capital will be encompassed by
revolutionists.

SAVED FROM BEDLAM.
Court Orders Sane Woman's Release
From Asylum.


Boston, Aug. Mrs. Dagmar Baa-
goe of Brooklyn was ordered released
from the Waverly Insane asylum by
Judge Braley of the supreme court
after a brief hearing at which evil
dence was offered that the woman was
not insane
The case of Mrs. Baagoe, who is the
daughter of General Christensen,
civil war officer, who formerly lived in
Brooklyn, but who died In Sweden
aboutsa year ago, has been before the
Massachusetts courts for some time.
Originally the woman was confined
in private institution at Worcester.
In December, 1904, some of her rela-
tives petitioned to the courts for her
release on the ground that she was
perfectly sane and that her incarcera-.
tion was Illegal. After a preliminary
hearing the court granted the request
of her attorney that she be removed to.
the Waverly institution, and this was
done.
1t Is understood that Mrs Baagoe
will now live with her mother at
Brooklyn. 1t is said that the woman
was placed in the Worcester institu-
tion by her husband
The fact that Mrs. Baagoe was con-
fined at Worcester was not known to
her mother until a letter was received
from her by the Danish consul at New
York city This letter, 1t appeared,
was placed in the mails by fellow
inmate on being released from the In
stftution. The Christensen family at
once took steps to secure the daugh-
ter's freedom
General Christensen was formerly
partner of J. Pierpont Morgan Fred
erick Baagoe, husband of the released
woman, is an analytical chemist of

LORD OR D|GAM|ST2 z
Douglas, Arrested In Portland,
Me-, Reported to Be Son of
English Marquis.
TAKEN FOR HUNTED MAN.
AsheviIie Police Ask For Apprehension
of Suspect, Who Laughs at Alleged
Mistaken Seclusion to Avoid Pub
Iicity-No Resemblance to the Man
Sought For Plural Marriages.

Portland, Me-, Aug. 2.-Instead of
having In custody an American biga-
mist known as Lord Douglas, wanted
by the authorities of many states, as
was at first supposed, the Portland
police, it is thought. have detained Lord
Sholto Douglas, third son of the late
Marquis of Queensbury.
Portland detectives were requested
by the police of Asheville, N G., sew
eral days ago to arrest man who
rented cottage on the shore of Sebago
lake in May. An officer went to the
lake and detained a man known at the
lake resorts as s. G. Douglas. The
Asheville police were notified Of the
detention Of the man, but the local au
thorities suspected from the first that
a mistake had been made, and they re-
Trained from making public the occur
renee.
Takes Arrest HumorousIy.
The suspect regarded the arrest hui
morously and told the officer who call
ed on him that he was Lord Sholto
George Douglas With him were two
persons, who, he said, were Lady Doug
las and. their son. So convincing was
the story that the local police notified
the Asheville officers that in their opin-
ion the man was what he represented
himself to be- and they advised them to
order his release.
A firm of bankers in Portland stated
that the man detained at Sebago is
really Lord Sholto Douglas. They say
that some time ago he brought letters
Of credit from q London banking house
presented were honored by the London
institution. The police here state that
the description Of the bigamist, beyond
a slight resemblance, does not CORE
spond to that of the Engllshman. Lord
Sholto is thirty four years OF age, while
the American Lord Douglas is about
forty-five, according to the description
sent out by the police of several cities.
Time Does Not Correspond.
The suspect says that he was with
his family In England from November,
1904 until last May, whereas the crimes
VI Tue AIlleflcuH were COuIlltleu mOSl-
ly last year.
The prisoner states that the health
of his wife had not been good and that
he decided to remain In Maine for the
summer. They selected cottage on
the shore Of Sebago lake, SO that they
might have seclusion, and In order to
avoid publicity they were known as
Mr., and Mrs. s. G. Douglas. The sus-
pect is now In this city in custody of
the local police.
Lord Shoito Douglas was formerly
( lieutenant in the Fourth battalion of
the Northamptonshire regiment. In
1895 he was married to Miss Loretta
Adkins, and for several years he resid-
ed In Bakersfield, Cal.

MAY TIE UP SAGE ESTATE.
Change In Will Believed to Afford
Ground For Suits.

Change In Will Believed to Afford
Ground For Suits.
New York, Aug. 2.-Three strokes of
a scrivener's pen may tie up the es-
tate of Russell Sage in so many years
Of litigation that the principal bene-
ficiary and the executors, who are to
receive between 100000 and 81, ,O0O, 900
each, will be dead and buried before
the final settlement.
1t was discovered that In the clause
to which the testator attached his sig
nature there is an erasure of date,
which apparently had escaped the scru-
tiny of any of the heirs-at-law-sa
fed or dissatisfied with the $25, 900 be-
quest-and to which the attorney for
the executors or the attorneys for the
estate or the widow have not seen fit
to call attention.
That the scrivener's carelessness in
framing testament disposing of an
estate valued at $100,000,000 will give
an additional peg on which to hang a
contest is beyond any question in the
opinion of lawyers competent to pass
