According to the story of Capt. Hakker the outbreak on board the vessel wa^ the result of a plot to take possosimi of the ship. The ohdam left this port July for Rotterdam. There were on board upward of iiU' cabin and steerage passengers. The craft had been running off shore but twenty-four hour- when the oiliccr on the bridge called upon the captain and informed him there was evidence of dissatisfaction among the liremen and ^.okeY*. All of the.se were socialists and hau given evidence of their antagonism to the line on the previous trip of the vessel to this port. ('apt.

Everything went weli that nii_'lit. A quiet seareh was made uinon^r the effects of the stokers for ruin, but very little was lound The erai't was fortyeight hours out from purl, and ('apt. Haklier had about made up his mind that the fears of his otlieers were groundless, when the vessel began to slow down, and finally stopped altogether. The captain went to the bridge and asked what wa-- the matter The second utliccr on that he had given the signal to stop, or even to -,low down. ,lusl then the chief engineer rushed to the bridge, "Gune below. he shouted to the captain, "the men have put out the fires and threaten to take my life if I insist on giving them orders Thev refuse to obey nil- in any way (.'apt- liakker hurried below. lie found twenty of the lireinen and coalpassers bunched together alongside the furnaces. They had drawn the lire, and the vessel was simply holding its head to the wind with the aid of a few sails. "What is the matter with you fellows'.'" shouted the captain
A general howl from the men was the answer to the skipper's query. "I'll tell you what the matter is." said IVter IHizcn. who appeared to lie the ringleader. "We have grown tired of this life, and we intend l.i rmf Uiings to suit ourselves. That's what the matter is." "1-, that the expression"of •yourself," inquired ('apt. l'.akker. "or are you acting as spokesman for the others'.'" "I don't care what the other fellows do." said 1 luzeti: "I'm going to.haye a good time or know why." X--•All right." said the captain/ "you can accomplish your purpose when you do away with me." "If that's ««i I'll do it now," said Ou/.en. and picking np a huge iron pick he sprang at the captain. The latter drew back, pulled a navy revolver from his pocket, aimed it at lbizeti. and fired. The man fell at the captain feet with an oath. '1 lie ball had entered his left breast, and two hours later he died.
Tlu: quickness and determination of the captain tilled the remainder of the., mutineers with alarm, and they lied mj every direction about'the fuiiia('C 100111. The body of liuzen was buried at sea l'apers in his bag showeil him to have been a leading socialist anil anything but a good character.
The killing of this man quelled the mutiny. The lires were re lighted »ncl the vessel proceeded on its way. reaching Kottordam without further incident. At liottordain Capt. Uakker hail all hands arrested. Then he gave himself up on the charge of murder. He was placed under S10.0W 1

BLOWN TO ATOMS.
of the island of Martinique, which was visited by a terrible hurricane on Tuesday night last, show that the facts already published are not only in no way exapperated. but that they did not tell the full story of the disaster. The number of dead was oripinally estimated at sixty, with hundreds of injured. The latest dispatches received here announce that 218 people are found to have been killed in the coast towns alone, the towns in the interior not having been heard from as yet. There is no doubt that the loss of life in the interior towns may have been as great if not greater than in the coast towns, so It is impossible at present to even make an estimate of the number of people who lost their lives through the cyclonic disturbance which brought so much ruin and desolation to the unfortunate island.
The diflie*i!ty experienced in forming a correct estimate as to the number of people who lost tiieir live* "M Tuesday night at Martinique is greatly due to the fr.ct that the roads leading into and from the interior of the island have been rendered absolutely impassable. These roads are blocked in some eases for several miles by fallen trees and displaced earth and rocks. Several days may 'lapse before the povcrnor of Martinique is able to pive the home, government a detailed Keeount of the disaster which ha- fa^en upon I he inhabitants of that is'jiufi Jt is known, however, that houses, crops and trees from one end of Martinique to the other have been demolished or flattened down beyond hope of recovery.
The loss to the coffee and sugar planters will be very great. At Ducos. it is now added, only four houses remain standing out of the. buildings that formed that little town before the hurricane visited it. Of the inhabitant^ of Ducos eighteen have been killed and a number are injured more or less sevcrelv. The troop* at the disposal of the governor and a large body of volunteers are busy at work in all directions succoring the injured and burying the dead. The physicians of the island had hardly an hour's rest for the firt forty-eight hours follow inp the hurricane's passage, and citizens of all classes are doing their ut most to succor the sufferers arid to re pair, so far as possible, the damage done.
The death list by towns, as forwarded by Gov. Cassc up to date, is as follows: St. -Pierre. V4: Morne Kouge. 2S Fond St. Denis, 7: Precheurs, 0: Carbet, 4: St. Joseph, 20 Marin, s: Vauchin. 10 Uamentin, 20 Francois. 22 Kobert. 2s Kiviere Pilote. 7: miscellaneous, IS. Hut these numbers do not include the deaths in isolated places, interior towns or upon plantations, with which no communication can be had at present* Perhaps a rouph estimate of eO'J killed and 1,000 injured will about cover the ground.
