The New York Evening Sun prints
an account of the mutiny in the Ger
many navy as given by participant,
Second Lieut.. Rudolph Glatfelder OF
the cruiser Magdeburg. who escaped
to Switzerland. He is Social-Demo-
erat.
Lieutenant Giatfelder's account OF
the outbreak was in this country a
week before the cable dispatches told
of Admiral Capelle's announcement
to the reichstag that grave disturb
anee in the navy had been sup
pressed.
He tells how the mutiny started, re-
lating events that led to the bloody
conflict that lasted from early morn
ing till midnight. Infuriated sailors
and marines from . ships mobbed an
admiral and his staff of so officers,
set fire to the barracks, Zeppelin
sheds, warehouses, wharveS, naval OBJ
servatory and then plundered the ar
senal.
One of the arsenal forts sided with
the rebels and engaged II coastal
forts. Four uncompleted warshipS,
bridges, buildings and fitting-out har-
bors were blown up. Some OF the mu-
tineers reached their ships others
were moved down by machine-gun
fire. The lieutenant says ugly feeling
is universal in the German navy and
other outbreaks are feared.
'No less than 12,000 sailors and
marines were involved in this upris-
ing" says Lieutenant Glatfelder. Il
am making this statement from per-
sonal knowledge. This refers to the
last days Of July and early days OF

ain conformity to the plans Of the
central terrorist committee series Of
loud demonstrations were held in
Berne, Switzerland, for the purpose Of
deceiving the secret agents of Berlin
into believing that the center Of the
coming uprising was to be near the
French frontier and that the agitation
was intended for the army in France.
ain fact, this was the original idea,
but the Russian revolution had
changed our basic plans and we had
decided to direct our energies in work
ing out a powerful agitation in the
navy. The immediate carrying out Of
the new strategy was postponed near
ly two months on account of a serious
disagreement among our revolutionary
tacticians.
s'The first group maintained that we
should exert all our energies to bring
about revolutionary feeling in the
ranks of our armies stationed in
France and Belgium ; the second group
pointed out that the navy was totally
overlooked by the Berlin police, there
fore it would be more effective If we
centered our propaganda at Zee

Finzel set out to beat this record. In

In the latter half of the month his pay
for two weeks was $211.05, making d
total of S347.92. Finzel believed that
if he had had a good car supply the en-

MINER OF WORLD
Lawrence B. Finzel Said to Be
Entitled to That Distinction.

From HooversvlIle comes a story of
one miner who just before the recent
wage increase became effective earned
S347.92 in one month in mining coal.
With 100 per cent. car supply, it is
said, the miner could earn even more.
If this miner could maintain this
monthly wage for an entire year his
annual wage would amount to 81, It's. 04,
and with the increase in wages allowed
November l it is believed he could
make 5000 a year.

duce his equal, young or old,
Lawrence B. Flnzel comes from .
family Of miners. His father, a Ger
man, came to America years ago and
settled in Garrett county, Md, where
the Finzel farm is well known. The
father Of Lawrence Finzel followed
mining for so years. He had six sons,
who we're taught the value Of being in

father laboredin themines.to earn money
with which to finance the farm as it
was in The course of development.
When the farm was in good state of
cultivation and the work could be done
by the boys in the evening, the boys
went into the mines. After digging
coal the greater part Of the day, they
came home and worked on the farm.
Lawrence B. Finzel then began
breaking records for coal mining.

GROWERS ship
$500 BUSHELS
Seed Potatoes By Car Load Sent
From Garrett County.

The Western Maryland Seed Potato
Growers Association which has its
headquarters at Frostburg and which is
composed largely of Garrett county
farmers. recently completed the ship
ment of 2, 800 bushels of Irish Cobbler
seed potatoes. This shipment of four
carloads was purchased by The Eastern
Shore of Virginia Produce Exchange.
The representative of the purchasers,
which is one of the largest exchanges
of its kind in the country, was in
Frostburg for ten days superintending
loading and inspecting. He was very
favorablY impressed with what he OBJ
served, he stated, and expressed the
opinion that Allegany and Garrett
counties were particularly adapted to
the growing of seed potatoes. just as
much so as Maine, where the business
has reached enormous proportions.
The Eastern Shore of Virginia Pro-
duce Exchange buys thousands of
bushels of seed potatoes each year
from Maine growers. Allegsny and
Garrett county growers can get this
business if they produce as good quail
lty, which can be done, it is said, as
the freight rate to the market is much
less from here then from Maine.
The local association hopes to show
q large increase in shipments neXtyear.
as their facilities will be much lmprov-
ed. Their warehouse, a substantial
brick building which will provide storage
for about 1900 bushels of seed pot
atoes, is practically completed. 1t is
located on the C. & ?. railroad near
the Frostburg depot.
