ABOARD
BRITISH WARSH|P
Story of the "Baron Dalmeny'
Trouble Deeloped at the
Treasury Department
by the Associated Press

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The story of
the mutiny on board the British
vessel Baron Dalmeny which steamed
out of Philadelphia Christmas day for
England, but which turned back
when the lights of Cape Heniopen
were still in sight, came out today at
the Treasury Department, in a report
from Captain Johnson, of the revenue
cutter Seneca, which went to the
rescue Of the Dalmeny's officers and
put a quietus to the revolt.
Captain Johnson reported that the
| trouble started among East Indians
in the crew, probably caused by some
violation Of the rule of caste, which
binds members of that race moro
| strongly than any law. The crew OF
the Dalmeny was made up of Las
cars. the firemen were big men from
the + ago district Of India, while the
deck crew were smaller men from
the plains. They began fighting
among themselves about the time the
steamer passed out Of the mouth OF
the Delaware and it took the com
bincd efforts of the master, Eben-
gordon. and the flourish CT revolvers
TO bring order. AT that there were
plenty Of wounds distributed among
the Lacasers and everybody in the
riot was badly beaten. While tn
third officer conned the ship ant
turned her back into the Delaware
the captain and the other two mate
kept the sections Of the crew apart.
The Dalmeny turned u again ant
started IN her voyage to Avonnlouth

ported to be plentiful. Arriving at

sport in shooting them when in some
unexplained way Taylor walked in
pairing to raise his gun to fire at a
| flock Of birds. Bland had his finger
on the hammer of the firearm but
became excited and Flowed this to
slip from his grasp and the entire
load OF shot struck Taylor in the side.
! The young man fell to the ground,
mortally wounded. His companion,
every effor to stop the flow Of blood
by placing bandages around the
wound but this proved fruitless and
they hurriedly carried him to his
home, two miles away. Taylor lost
much blood and was greatly weaken

was thought that his life could be
saved and DR.. Griggs, of Oriental

Winters in the South.
Southern Pines Tourist.

One of the why so many
Northern people spend their winters
in the South is that it enables them
not only to avoid the extreme cold
and the great changes in tempera-
ture characteristic of hat section,
delightful in the but be
cause they do not wish to be shut up
in the house from four to SIX months
Of the year. Many Of Pines
guests come from sections where the
cold weather lasts for something like
six months, while in the sand-hills
the winter can hardly be counted as
more than two months, and much Of
that period scarcely seems like win
ter to those familiar with the climate
OF the far North.
