PORTLAND, June 11.—Three days ago Ezra R. Yager, formerly steward on the steamship Breakwater, led a blushing bride to the altar in this city.

POLTAVA, South Russia, June 11— Mutiny has broken out in the Fletz regiment of infantry over the failure of the military authorities to redeem their pledges regarding the amelioration of service conditions, made as a result of last fall's revolt. The mutiny threatens to spread to the rest of the garrison. The police and a small force of loyal Cossacks here are unable to cope with the mutineers, who are armed with ri- fles and havera supply of ball car- |tridges. Members of the non-commis- |sioned officers’ school have joined the | mutineers. | The public is greatly excited, expect- {ing that the revolutionists will seize the opportunity to inaugurate an armed revolt in support of the mutinous sol- | diers.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 11.—An offi- clal statement issued today shows that being held on suspicion that he knows something about the murder of Ex- press Messenger Dan Haskell last Oc- tober during a futile attempt to hold 1p the Redding and Delamar stage. The | young man is a resident of Copper City, | which is part of Delamar. Shortly after the killing of Haskell ‘onstable Williams of Delamar sus- pected Popejoy of knowing something about the affair, but he never could zet any evidence to back up his sus- piclops. Constable Kinyon held the same views and he has been con- stantly at work on his clews, which he now claims are sufficiently “‘worked 1p” to warrant an arrest. Tomorrow he says he will swear to a complaint charging Popejoy with the crime. When arrested Popejoy cried like a | baby and vehemently denied complic- ity in _the crime. The crime of]| which Popejoy is accused is the one| *or which “Con” Hardwick and Charles| Whitescarbor were arrested over two months ago. They were subsequently | discharged, having proved a complete| alibi. The officers here have all along :ntertained a feeling that the crime| was committed by some one living| near the scene and they are ready to| pelieve that Kinyon has the right man. | Another arrest is to be made to- MOrrow.

KANSAS CITY, June 11.—Tn the United States District Court here toda, the cases against the Chicage and Al- ton and the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railways, charged with having granted rebates on export shipments, |and against D. H. Kresky, a Kansas City freight broker, charged with con- spiracy tb obtain rebates for shippers, were dismissed at the suggestion of the District Attorney. The indictments against the railways charged that they had granted a con- cession of 7 cents per 100 pounds on flour shipped by the Howard Milling Company ‘of Wichita, Kans., to New York. Kresky was charged with hav- ing conspired with J. E. Howard and R. C. Howard, président and secretary- treasurer respectively of the miliing company, to obtain a concession. The indictments were returned last December. When the cases were called today District Attorney Van Valken- burgh stated that he was cenvinced that' the two railways had been Im- posed upon and were ignorant of the nature of the shipments made until the indictments against them were report- | ed. The shipments, it appears, had, he stated, been billed for export, but were | diverted after reaching New Kresky's discharge .was ordered be- cause, under the circumstances, the District Attorney said, it would be impossible to convict him. The cases dismissed today are dis- tinct from those against the Chicago and Alton and J. N. Faithorn and F. A. Wann, former officials of that road, charged with paying rebates on pack- ing-house products, which will be set for trial some time this month. Judge McPherson will tomorrow: in- struct the jury on the evidence pro- duced last week at the trial of the four packing companies—Armour, Swift, Cudaby and Nelson Morris—charged with accepting rebates from the Bur- lington Railway on export shipments. — e CALIFORNIA FRUIT GROWER MARRIES A GYPSY PRINCES: He and His Bride Elude the Curious Throng and Steal Away and Wed. NEW YORK, June 11.—Two thousand persons from Elizabeth and Newark visited the gypsy encampment in the woods at Waverly yesterday afternoon, expecting to see a real Romany we ding in the marriage of “Princess Ruth, granddaughter of the famous “King Joseph” Lovell, whe, it was widely announced, was to bécome the York. bride of Claude Cavanaugh, a former | member of the Evans tribe of gypsies, who has made a fortune as a ‘fruit- grower in California since he forsook nomadic life several years ago. The gypsies said that “Princess” Ruth and her spouse-elect had stolen a march not only upon the curious out- siders, but also on their own people as well.

This | remark ecame when he was whether the beef disclosures had reach- ed Great Britain before he left there. | He replied that they had, and with much amusement told of his meeting with representatives of the press there. | “Representatives of the press met me | wheu & arrived in England.” he sald, | “and asked me if I would give them | my impression of the insurance scandal. | I replied that I would, if they would | print it. They agreed to do this, ana |1 said: ‘The insurance scandal amounts |to this: In the United States we wash | our dirty linen in public. but in Great | Britain they do it privately.’ I looked | caretully in the papers. but could mot | ind my statement.” | Bishop Potter was then asked if he | thought the friendly relations existing | batween the two countries were super- | ficial.
