TROOPS PI" i tOWS RUSSIAN MUTINY Machine Guns Uced to Quell Upris ing at Crocstadt. GENERAL PREPOFF REMOVED Sl Petersburg, Nov. 10.?This city | was in a furore of excitement all of yesterday and late Into the night over :fco news of the mutiny at Cronstadt. livery one nf the exaggerated reports of the aifair received credence in many quarters, and half of the inhabitants of the capital believed that the mutiny was successful, that the troops sent from here had joined in the revolt, that the entire garrison of 8t. Peters burg would follow suit, and that the town of Cronstadt had been burned to the ground, together with the sur rounding forts. The place was represented as being in the hands of 8000 sailors, who bad murdered their officers, seized the ar senal and bombarded the Imperial palace at Peterbof, across the bay. Butchery was said to have prevailed in the streets all during the day, and the rumore even went to the extent of saying that Father John, of Cron stadt, had feft the bed on which he was supposed to be dying to lead the mutineers. Many of these sensational reports ?were, of eourse, entirely false, but suf ficient details have been received to prove that about 3000 sailors and a battalion of artillery from one of the forts indulged In a mutiny, which was only put down by about 7000 Cossacks and troops of the imperial guard has tily dispatched from St. Petersburg and from the garrisons near .Poterhof, and lhat machine guns had to be em ployed. Before the arrival of the troops the sailors, many of whom were drunk on liquor plundered from the spirit shops, had eet Are to the market and to several groups of houses. About 300 sailors wore still holding out at midnight, and although these are ex pected to surrender, the authorities be came so alarmed that the Paul regi ment of the guard was dispatched to Cronstadt. The governor of Cronstadt tele graphed the general staff that the mu tiny had been crushed, that there was no likelihood of any renewal of the revolt, that reports to the effect that members of the guard had Joined the mutineers were false, and that there was no truth in the reports that the mutineers had seized the arsenal and the forts. The governor in his tele gram <=atd that many of the mutinous sailors tried to eseape in boats to the mainland, but that they were cap tured and were melng brought back to Cronstadt. He gave no estimate of the casualties. The correspondent of the Associat ed Tress, who Is on the ground, how ever says that the officers estimate the casualties at 200. which Ir oer tainlv very conservative in view of the reports brought by refugees who fled front the town to the mainland. At this critical juncture there Is no attempt made In government circles to minimize the seriousness of the mu tinv. and It Is admitted lhat If a bat talion of artllleryists Joined the sail ors In open revolt the mutinous spirit must have been contagious. It Is also admitted that whfle the Cossacks and i the guards stood the severe test of j shooting upon their fellows in another branch of the service, there is s fear that the mutiny will have a bad effect upon the morale of the troops, which already had been badly shaken by the revolutionary propaganda. TREPOFF OUSTED AT LAST Czar and Count Witte Remove Hated Dictator of Russia. St. Peter.-lnrg. Nov. 10.?Both Count Witte and the emperor have made an other surrender.

Count Witte has been fully aware of i the Intense hatred General Trepoff's General Trepoff claims to have been j ftreatly misunderstood, and that his- | tory must eventually acquit him of being in any way the instigator of the shedding of blood and all the other tiorrors which Russia has experienced during the last fortnight. ? 1 No Freedom Tor Poland.

Mathucs against the directors of the Enterprise National (tank as sureties for the slate funds In that hank when it failed, were tiled lu common picas court. There art four petitions in all. The defense of the director* of the Insolvent hank to the claim of the ommonnvaJth against them for the imount of the state deposits in the honk when Its doors were closed, be cause of Cashier Clark'* suicide and defalcation, Is that under the law and the statements attached to the bonds on which the Judgments were entered all liabilities have been fully met and discharged by the bank. In other words, the state having at various times checked out or withdrawn the deposits actually bonded, the condi tions of the bond were fully met and complied with, and therefore the direc tors cannot he held liable.
