Charged Against Fivs
Massachusetts Men.
Admit the Specific Allegation
In Mutiny Charge,
But Claim Were Driven TO II By
Abuse and Hunger.

Baltimore, Md, Aug. 24.-Charged
with mutiny on the high seas, five
young men of Massachusetts, were
lodged in Jail here today after having
been brought 5000 miles to answer for
their alleged crime. They give their
names as William D. Albert Of New
Bedford. Charles Mitchell of Worces-
ter. E. w. Lillay of Lowell, Charles
Turner of Cambridge and George White
of Somerville.
They reached this city this afternoon
on the revenue cutter Apache. to which
they were transferred last night from
the vessels of the midshipmens prac-
tice squadron, now at the mouth of
the PatuXent river, on which they
were brought from the Azores at the
request of the United States consul
stationed there. They had been placed
in his custody by Captain Carvallo of
the Whaler Pedro Varilla of New Bed
ford
Also in custody are Jermiah Nc
Carthy and John w HaddOck, like
wise members of the crew of the Varil-
la, who are held as witnesses. Had
dock, declare the men charged with
mutiny, was the ringleader in the af-
fair which brought about the arrests.
The specific allegation against the men
is that they disabled the Varilla by mu-
tilatng the windlass and throwing II
overheard. making it necessary to take
the vessel into port for repairs. This the
five men under arrest acknowledge, add
ing the allegation that they were brutal
ly treated and altogether jnadequately
fed and that their protest to Captain
Carvallo was disregarded.
The prisoners are all young men with.
out experience as seamen and seemingly
ignorant of the degree of the crime with
which they are charged the penalty for
which is a prison sentence Of indefinite
length.
The Varilla sailed from New Bedford
April q last for a two-years whaling
cruise. The men claim they were so mis-
erably fed that on July they complained
to the captain, who is said to have re-
piled:
IF this doesn't suit, go somewhere else
and get better
The men arrested say it was to compel
the captain to take them somewhere
else" that they might be able to get bet
ter that they threw the windlass over
board
On July 4 the captain and Portuguese
mates broke up two games of cards the
men were playing. Two days later the
windlass was disabled All the men on
watch were put in irons and so kept until
Haddock and Mccarthy made statements
duplicating the-men under arrest here.
The latter are said to have been kept in
irons IS days, until their arrival at Fayal
Azorean islands, during which time their
fare. they declare. consisted of piece of
bareback and pot of water daily.
The men were given a preliminary
hearing by United States Commissioner
Bond on board the Apache before being
brought to this city.

pills. This information has been gained
from the elective blanks which have al.

tering students is remarkable END
points that it is the ambition of the
students to go forward.
All of the old students will return this
fall and school of about 225 is looked
for. Had the new High school build
ing been completed this fall. the en-
trance class would be larger. as Their

hibits which will be at the Central
Maine fair this year. Work from al

shown in the hall over the office. These
exhibitions should be of special inter
est to all citizens

ing been renovated and repaired, but
every other building in the city. The
grounds about the buildings have been
cleaned and placed in respectable con-
dition. so that everything is in readi-
