GREAT NORTHERN FREIGHTER
is DISABLED AT SEA.
Minnesota Helpless About Is Miles
Southwest of Coronado Islands.

San Diego, Cal. Dec. 5.-The dis
abled Great Northern freighter Min
nesota is waIlowing practically helpless
about 25 miles southwest of the Coro-
uado Islands, according to a meagre
radio report received here late today.
This is the first direct word re-
ceived here from the big steamer since
Thursday night, when the American
Hawaiian freighter Nevada signalled
the Minnesota off Turtle Bay, Lower
California. At that time the Minne-
sofa was steaming north at three
knots an hour.
Captain Thomas Garlic of the Min
nesota refused an offer of assistance
from the Nevada.
The radio received here stated that
the big Hill freighter was awaiting the
arrival of the wrecking tug Iaqua and
the tug Dauntless, which are steaming
toward the Minnesota at full speed
Nothing was said regarting the man or
men reported to have been imprisoned
in the ships brig for an alleged at
tempt to disable the freighter by Grip
pling her machinery.
1t is not improbable, according to
shipping men here, that the Minnesota
will put into San Diego harbor instead
of trying to proceed. as has been plan
ned, to San Francisco.
The Coronado Islands are Is miles
southwest of this port.

Shanghai, Dec. 6.-The crew of the
Chinese cruiser Chaotic mutinied last
night and opened fire on two other
warships and the arsenal. The fire
was returned the engagement lasting
for an hour. Several shots fell in the
foreign concessions.
Apparently the outbreak has been
confined to the Chaotic. The Chinese
authorities announce that she will be
held and sunk at daybreak.
Story of the Outbreak.
Shanghai, Dec. 5.-Conf1icting ac-
counts of the nature of the outbreak
are current, and owing to the strict
measures taken by the authorities it
has been impossible thus far to obtain
official information. 1t appears, how
ever, that at o'clock Sunday after
noon 30 men set forth from the for
eign settlement in a launch and went
alongside the Chao-Ho, which is lying
opposite the Kiang-Nan arsenal.
Mutinied by Pre-Arraneement.
On the arrival of the launch the
crew of the Chao-Ho mutinied, appar-
emily by pre-arrangement. At about
O'Clock the mutineers opened fire
on the arsenal, the cruisers Hai-Chi
and the gunboat Tung- Ching. The
Hai-Chi and Tung- Ching replied and
there was lively cannonading of light
and heavy guns for an hour. At least

half a dozen three-pound shells fell
in the foreign concessions. The city
and countryside were thrown into
panic.
After the firing ceased the Chaotic
remained at anchor. keeping watch on
the other warships.
The arsenal authorities notified the
senior consul of the foreign settle
ment that the Chaotic would be
shelled and sunk at daybreak-
Gunboat Opened Fire.
Attempts to investigate the outbreak
met with only partial success. The
Associated Press correspondent en-
deavored to reach the arsenal in a
launch. but was challenged by the
Tung-Ching and ordered to turn about.
Notwithstanding immediate compli-
ance with this order. the gunboat OPEN
ed fire, damaging the launch slightly.
Three Attempts to Reach Arsenal.
Three subsequent attempts to reach
the arsenal by automobile were un-
availing. On each occasion the out
pickets were passed after a strict ex-
animation. but the inner guards turned
back the automobile at the point Of
their rifles
At the time of the last attempt, at

INCREASED REVENUES OF
POSToFFIcE DEPARTMENT,
17.o6 Per Cent. Greater in November
Than During Same Month Last Year.

Washington, Dec. 5.-Marked i'm
provement in business conditions is
reflected in the November revenues of
the so largest postoffices of the coun-
try, producing approximately half of
all the postal receipts. Postmaster
General Rurleson announced this to-
day in a statement showing an increase
of S2,033138, or 1896 per cent, for
those offices from November a year
ago.
The normal rate of increase is about
z per cent, but November last year
showed a decrease of 5.71 per cent. as
result of the business depression
which began Immediately after the
outbreak of the European war. The
depression was most seriously felt
during that month. Total receipts of
the so cities was S13,349,450 in No
yember last year.
New York, with s2,SS6,7 761, led the
list, showing $525,691 more revenue
thanNovember, 1914, an increase of
2274 per cent. against a decrease of
S.19 per cent. in November last year
from November, 1918. Chicago was
second with s2,407,61S. an increase of
S443,S12, or 22.6O per cent, compared
with a decrease of 1924 per cent. last
year.

London, Dec. 5, 10 p. m.-The ne
gotiations between Greece and the al
lied powers still drag on at Athens,
new bitches seemingly arising as the
old ones are smoothed out. One day
it is reported a settlement has been
reached, only to be followed the next
by denial or announcement of fresh
difficulties confronting the diplomats.
Allies Impatient Over Greece's Delay.
The people of the allied countries,
particularly those of France and Italy,
are becoming impatient over the con-
tinual delays and the press is de-
manding that stern action be taken
to demonstrate to King Constantine
and his ministers the determination of
the quadruple entente to secure the
assurances demanded. New proposals
are said to have been made by France
and Grat Britain in the hope Of reach
Ing an agreement.
Attitude of Rumania Undecided.
The attitude of Rumania also re-
mains undecided. Since the despatch
announcing the closing of Rumanian
silence has descended upon Bucharest
and Europe is awaiting anXiously the
next move which will give meaning
to this order. The general belief here
is that the Rumantan government is
waiting anxfously the concentration of
q sufficient Russian force in Bessara-
bia and a large enough Anglo French
army in southern Serbia, to make vic
tory certain before Joining the allies.
Rounding Up Serbians.
Meanwhile the Austro- Germans and
Bulgarians continue rounding up the
few Serbian troops remaining in Ser
bia. and are also prosecuting with thier
usual energy the campaigns against
Montenegro.
Unusual calm prevails on the vari-
Gus battle fronts, even the Italians ap-
parently slackening their offensive,
probably in preparation for the next
phase, which they hope will place
Gorilla in their hands, with other
commanding positions on which the
Austrians' hold has weakened during
the past weeks of heavy fighting.
British Reverse in Mesopotamia.
The check suffered by General Town
shend in Mesopotamia is a severe dis
appointment to the British public,
which had looked upon this expedition
rs the brightest spot thus far in the
war, with the possible exception of
General Botha's conquest of German
Southwest Africa. Nothing has been
heard from General Townshend since
he reached Kut-El-Amara, where it is
likely he will make a stand, as the
position is a very strong one where he
could hold out until reinforcements
reached him. 1t is not only the mil
ltary failure, but the effect the re-
tirement will have on the British pos
sessions in the east which makes the
result so unfortunate from the British
point of view.

SUGGESTION FROM FORMER

That Congress Assure President of Its

Washington, Dec. Sin a statement

assure the president of its readiness
to- support him in any effort which he
may see fit to make to hasten the res
toration of peace in Europe.
AN offer of mediation" he says,
lis not only amply justified on the
ground of humanity, but it is demand
ed. There is abundant rea-
son to believe that the president, eth
er alone or in conjunction with the
executives of the other neutral nations,
can secure from the nations at war a
statement of the terms upon which
peace is possible and such a statement
would be the beginning of an exchange
of views which would lead t GA treaty"

Labor Troubles
BRIDGEPORT MAcHINIsTS TO
PRESENT FORMAL DEMANDS.
DISCRIMINATION CAUSE
II Is Reported That Unless the De-
mands Are Granted a General Strike
Will Be caIled-Remineton Plant Is
Not Involved.

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Dec. 5.-At a
mass meeting of the machinists of the
Union Metallic Cartridge company thsi
morning, grievances against the COM
pany were considered and a committee
was appointed to treat with the COM
pany officials, in an attempt to affect
a settlement. The committee was
gronted the power to call a strike of
all the machinists of the u. NJ. G. COM
pany if unsuccessful in it's efforts to
treat with the officials.
Large Number of Petty Grievances.
While the men have a large number
of petty grievances, the principal
causes of dissatisfaction are alleged
discrimination on the part of some of
the foremen and the discharge of ten
machinists because, it Is claimed, they
were active in union matters.
Nearly 900 Attended Meeting.
Today's meeting was attended by
nearly 900 out of the 1 900 machinists,
tool makers and specialists employed
at the U. NJ. c. plant. The grievances
were discussed at some length and it
was finally voted to leave the matter

tee of the union. International off,

tee in its work
Demand to Be Drawn Up.
Formal demands will be drawn up
tomorrow morning and submitted to
the heads of the L. NJ. G. company.
1t is reported that unless the demands
are granted, a general strike will be
called.
Up to the present the Remington
Arms and Ammunition company has
not been drawn into the trouble. There
are some grievances among the en-
plOyes of this concern, but union lead
ers intimated today that these would
receive consideration in due time.
May Be Sympathetic Strike.
1t is expected, however. that in the
event the U NJ. c. company officials
fail to grant the demands of the ma
chinists, the union members of the
Remington plant will be appealed tC
and may go out on a sympathetic
strike. This course, however, could
not be verified by the nnion officials
who refused to consider anything per-
tanning to the arms company. The
policy of dealing with only one con-
Germ at time was formulated dur
ing the recent industrial upheavaI ir
this city and has been closely fol-
lowed since. Should the Remington
concern become involved, however
about 1000 men would quit theiI
benches.
Situation Up OF General Manager.
Union leaders stated tonight that the
whole situation was now up to Major
Walter c. Penfeld, general manager
of both plants. Thus far Major Pen
field has refused to treat with the
unionists. He will be given one more
chance tomorrow, the union leaders
assert.
