ST. PETERSBURG IS ALARMED

Bueh Oeeurrsnss* aa Those at Odessa May Precipitate a Ro rot at low. St. Petersburg, June 29.—More serious in Its possible effects than all the defeats In Manchuria or the destruction of Rojestvensky's fleet was the news which reached St. Petersburg early last evening that the standard of open rebellion was floating on board one of the emperor’s battleships In the harbor of Odessa, and that with shotted guns the mutinous crew headed by eight officers, was bolding the ship against all comers.

The Knlaz Potemkine is a more powerful ship than any in Kruger’s squadron and the gravity of the situation is increased by the fact that the city is practically in the possession of the strikers. Should the sailors of Kruger's ships join the mutineers the government would have to face open revolution, which would spread like wildfire to other towns in the Black sea littoral. The news of the mutiny coming just at this time when Poland is In a state of ferment, when agrarian disorders are coming to a head and when the government is attempting mobilization involving about 200.000 men may easily precipitate a crisis, and the authorities are endeavoring to keep it from the public.
