 A group of Maximalists were arrested bv patrols on their way to take possess sion of the telegraph and cable offices.
 At the conference of ministers and workmens and soldiers delegates last evening it was decided to place the city under martial control. General Polovt- self. governor of the military district, was summoned and instructed to use all the loyal troops to put down the insur- rection. As a result, he ordered out the Cossacks and several companies of in- fantry to patrol the streets. One of the first clashes between the opposing forces occurred on.

U. 5. ATLANTIC FLEET ID BE PROGRAMMED
 ANNOUNCES DANIELS
Details Are Not Given Out, But It Is Known That An other Rear Admiral
 Will Be Added

Washington, July 1S.-Reorganization of the Atlantic fleet has been ordered by Secretary Daniels to meet new prob lens resulting from expansion of the force to almost twice it's normal size for war service.
 Details of the steps taken are with held for military reasons, but the Sec retary announced today that the reor- ganzation plans involve the addition Of another rear admiral to the fleet and that Rear Admiral Albert w. Grant now commanding the submarine force, had been named for the place.
 Admiral Mayo, the Secretary said, will remain in general command with the immediate authority under him divided between Vice Admiral Coffman, at pres ent second in command, and Vice Ad- miral Grant. The former is to have di- rect command of division containing most of the superdreadnaughts and Admiral Grant will command the re- mainder of the fleet under the designa- ton of Force No. 1.'
 It is understood that the reorganization will not affect the division of the fleet now in European waters under Vice Adr miral Sims. At the navy department it was indicated today that possible op- erations overseas are not contemplated by the changes and that there is little probability that either Vice Admiral Coff- man or Vice Admiral Grant will be sent abroad in the near future.
 Vice Admiral Grants appointment leaves no vacancies in that rank, and if additional vice admirals are needed a further authorization will have to be sought by Congress. Authority for the appointment of three was granted with the understanding that one would be appointed for the Atlantic fleet, another with the Asiatic fleet and the third with the Pacific fleet, but so much more im- portance has been forced upon the forces in the Atlantic that it was decided to sta tion all three there.
 Vice Admiral Grant will be succeeded as commander of the submarine force by Capt s. s. Robinson, now commanding the battleshp South Carolina.
