Jvas denied later at the Chancellory «»f
the Imperial household. li was ex-
plained, however, that on account of th<»
'dampness" at Peterhof arrangements
had been made for the return of the
Imperial family to Tsarskoe-Selo.
Martial law was proclaim* d at Cron-
stadt during the day and all day ]■ -.
V4- in forcemeats have been landing t h < «
, irem the mainland. No one is permitted
on the island without a pass, and al-
though th'. correspondent <»f the Asso-
ciated Press was thus equipped, ho was
held up and searched upon dLsembark-
ine from a row boat.
The correspondent found that at C
• clock yesterday evening; there 'were
about 200'i mutinous sailors barricaded in
their barracks, which were surrounded
by troons.
The correspondent made a tour of the
citj and penetrated to the bridge con-
necting with Fort Constantino. Ilo saw
sailors laughing from the windows of tin-
barracks at the besieging soldiers across
the way. Every when there were heavy
patrols on the street, but otherwise tie3,
thoroughfares w :»• almost empty. The
people are afraid to venture out.
Drumhead
Courtmartial.
Whil ■ passing the arsenal at 4 o'clock
in the afternoon the correspondent hcari
a ragged volley, which he subsequently
learned had cut short the lives of ,-ix
prisoners who had been sentenced to
cieath by drumhead courtmartial, which
began sitting at 11 a. m. It was de-
clared that the 300 sailors who had sur-
rendered during the night had been shot
earlier in the day, but it was impossible
to obtain absolute confirmation of this
statement.
From eyewitnesses on both sides the
correspondent learivd that in addition
to the officers previously mentioned the
losses on the side of the loyal rr.on wen-
six soldiers and two sailors killed and
about twenty of both armies wounded.
The losses on thnj side of the mutineers
could not be obtained, but they were
not heavy. Three workmen wen killed
and six were wounded. In addition. Mine.
Jacobi, a sister of Col. Alejandroff, who
threw herself between her brother and
some sailors, when the latter swarmed
into their house at the beginning of th*
outbreak, was brutally stabbed to d»ath.
The utmost ferocity was displayed on
both sides. One of the workmen killed
cried to the patrol: "Don't fir" on the
people," but the officer in command
turned coldly away, and gave the order
to shoot the man down.
True Story
of Cronstadt Uprising.
Earlier accounts of the Cronstadt
trouble have been largely incorrect. The
mutinous sailors nev-r went to Fort Con-
stant ine. The plan of the uprising was
conceived by the revolutionary military
committee. While it was ex-rented in
the letter, it failed because the informa-
tion of the situation at Fort. Constantino
and the arsenal was faulty. When the sig-
nal was given at 11 p. rn. the sailors,
sappers and pioneers left their barracks
and divided into three groups. The mis-
sion of the first, and smallest group,
was to kill the officers; the second was
to take possession of the arsenal, and
the third was to seize the fortress and
the train. The train crew had agreed
in advance to be ready. Revolutionaries
cut the telegraph and telephone wires.
The horrible task of the first group
was accomplished hurriedly, and it then
joined the second group, which was al-
ready on the bridge leading to Fort Con-
stantino. This is the only fort directly
connected with the mainland, the others
being detached islands. The sentinels on
i t. Constantine offered no resistance. The
artillerymen remained neutral and sub-
mitted to imprisonment in the casemates.
Mutineers
Were Checkmated.
It was at this time that the sappers
and pione rs. who comprised the two
groups, found themselves checkmated.
The batteries of the fort were arranged
in two tiers. The guns on the lower
tier can be swung on an arc of 45 de-
grees and commanded only the sea, while
those of the upper tier are on pivots
and can be directed in any direction.
The magazine, however, while contain-
ing a full supply of shells for the lower
tier guns, had in it only two shells for
the guns of the upper tier. When, there-
fore, the storming party later brought
up field and machine guns the mutineers
were without the possibility of using ar-
tillery and were compelled to surrender.
Their flog, inscribed with the words,
"Land and Liberty," which thov hoisted
on entering the fort, was hauled down.
About lfta of the mutineers, including ail
the revolutionary civilians, 'neaped in a
steamer which was lying off the port.
To the sailors, who were all practically
unarmed, their carbines having been
taken from tlie racks in their barracks
1 > ord. r of the commandant the day be-
fore, ft 11 the task of capturing the ar-
senal. This proved easy, but to their
a«i.azem« nt the men found it practically
empty. With the exception of a few old-
styl< guns there was neither artillery
ncr ammunition to be found. The sail-
rr> tie: n made an unsuccessful attempt
to release their comrades of the Seventh
Equipage. Then, aftt r a hasty consulta-
tion. th< \ decided to return to their bar-
racks and barricade themselves In. »
li the meantime, the loyal troops were
closing in and several skirmishes had
recurred. The sailors had only auto-
mata n volvers supplied by the revolu-
tionists. During these encounters most
of the casualties occurred. Once', the
sailors were inside the barracks, the
loyal soldiers immediately surrounded the
buildings, but it was decided to be pref-
erable lo starve them out than to compel
the m» n of one arm of the service to fire
upon their comrades of another arm.
About :J<)0 sailors, who became separat-
ed from the main body on the return
march to the barracks, wore cut off and
captured. As far as can be ascertained,
everything was practically over at 4
o'clock in the morning.
MUTINY AT CRONSTADT.
Troops Seize Fort Constantine, But
Are Overwhelmed and Sur-
render.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 2.-A corre-
spondent of the Associated Press who
attempted to roach Cronstadt this morn-
ing from Oricnbaum, on the Gulf of Fin-
land opposite Cronstadt, found the place
almost in a state of panic. All com-
munication with the Island of Cronstadt
was interdicted, people arriving th< re
were searched and arrested. From in-
formation obtained from refugees, of-
ficers and others, a fairly clear idea of
what happened was obtained. The sailors
of the Twentieth and other equipages, j
together with the sappers and miners,
pioneers and other units, managed to
rise in spite of the surveillance of the
guard and other regiments which were !
stationed at the barracks. This sus- |
picion is heightened by the fact that tin
commander disarmed the Syeosk ngi
ment during the evening.

You will have to do so
if you use hard, inelastic

way.
Use old-fashioned white

It wears down uniformly,
without that scaling off
which disfigures so many
modern houses, and it
ready for re-painting with-

Its fragrance is delicious and

Fort Constantine.
Without lights they ran a train to the
bridge separating the Island from Fort
Constantine, which, with the connivance
of the sentinels, they had no difficulty
in entering. The main portion of the
fortress artillery in the fort joined the
mutineers and those who did not do so
were hound and gagged.
The mutineers then turned some of the
guns of the fortress against the camp of
the loyal troops in the city and opened
fire on the latter with the preconceived
intention of covering the escape of the
train steamer, which sailed around in a
protected position under the guns of the
fort.
I'ntil the guns opened fire the whole
affair was conducted so quietly that the
commander or tho fortress had no sus-
picion of what had happened. On tho
first shot a general alarm was sounded
and the entire garrison was called out.
While a portion of the loyal troops took
up a position in the streets, which were
already filled with terror-striclfcn inhab-
itants, a storming party, consisting of
three regiments of grenadiers, the Veno-
se!, Simonovsky and Vinlundsky. wa.«
formed and led to the assault. After four-
volleys had been fired, the mutineers
hoisted the white flag, and those who re-
fused to surrender were hastily dis-
patched. Meanwhile the waiting steamer
sailed off in the direction of the Finnish
coast. Later machine guns were posted
in the main streets. No mercv was
shown to those suspected of being igi-
tators, and a number of innocent persons
are reported to have been killed.
Grand Duke
Was Furious.
This morning, when the Grand Duke
Nicholas Nicholaivitch, commander in
chief of all the troops in t ho St. Peters-
burg district, was informed of what had
transpired, he was furious, and, accord-
ing to information obtained at Oricn-
baum, he immediately ordered the muti-
neers to be trie I by court martial and
shot, and it is added that executions are
already in progress.
It is stated that the garrison of Fort
Constantine and Alexander at Crons'tlult
received previous to the mutiny the fol-
lowing telegram in cipher from Svca-
borg:
"Prepare youiseives to receive a free
fleet. We hope to find you friends and
not enemies."
A reply was sent in the desired sense
and chiefs were chosen from among the
sailors after the latter had expelled their
officers.

ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 2.-The Gov-
ernment this evening issued the following
account of the Cronstadt affair:
"Yesterday evening disorders broke out
at Cronstadt. Sailors of the fourth
equipage of the fleet left their barracks
after 11 o'clock, and joined a crowd
awaiting them on the street. Thev pro-
ceeded toward the residence of the com-
mandant of the detachment. The detach-
ment of infantry was immediately sum-
moned and fired on and dispersed the
crowd. Simultaneously the agitation dis-
played itself in other equipages of the
fleet. Sailors began to assemble outside
of their barracks, but were persuaded
to return to their quarters.
"Meanwhile the members of the fourth
equipage and the populace had reas-
sembled and precipitated themselves to-
wards the arsenal in an endeavor to
force the gates, but they were again
dispersed by the infantry ami quick-fir-
ing guns.
"Evidently the movement was planned,
as at the moment for the appearance of
the rioters a red flag was hoisted on
the fort, which the rioters occupied. This
fort was bombarded, and towards 5:30
in the morning the rioters sun- udered.
"In the course of the conflict with
the crowd the following were killed:

Baron Von Sternburg Understood to
Have Presented Something Like
An Ultimatum.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 2.—Baron Von
Sternberg, Ambassador of Germany to
the United States, on his recent call
upon the State Department is under-
stood to have informed the Secretary
that his Government felt that it has gone
as far as it can in the way of maintain-
ing friendly and amicable trade relations
with this country, and that, while there
is no hostile intent in its present move,
yet self-interest and the preservation of
the n".vly created tariff system of the
country mako it necessary that the pref-
erential treatment accorded to other Na-
tions which recently entered into treaties
with Germany shall not be accorded the
United States.
In effect notice was served on tho
United States that the German Em-
peror, aftt r considering all phases of the
question of our trade relations, had de-
liberately decided that Germany can en-
ter into a commercial war with the
United States, and will do so unless
steps are taken by this Government to
give that country concessions. It was
also made clear that the German Em-
peror hopes to al'feet public sentiment
in this country through the effect on our
export tr ule to Germany during the sum-
in. f r, so that there will be a demand that
Congress, when it. meets in the winter,
will take up the tariff question and
authorize some concessions in favor of
the Germans.

FOR THE BLOOD
-
, „ , The demand for S. S. S. has steadily increased since it was first placed
to''' new'"\'oi'k,° where°thei e' iTu 'large on the market until it is now recognized as the greatest of all blood purifiers.
It has won its way to success because IT CURES DISEASE? and
there are few homes where "S. S. S. for the blood" is not a household saying.
As the blood is the very life of the body, nourishing and supplying strength
£o every part, disease in some form is sure to follow when it becomes contam-
inated. Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Boils, Pimples and the various skin affections
are due to an over-acid and impure blood-supply. Rheumatism, Catarrh,
Scrofula, Chronic Sores and Ulcers, Contagious Blood Poison, etc., are all
deep-seated blood diseases and will continue to grow worse and more danger
ous as long as the impurities and poisons which produce them remain in th<
blood. In all blood disorders S. S. S. has proven itself a perfect remedy, anc
well earned the right to be called the greatest of all blood purifiers. It goe!
down into the circulation and forces out all poisons, impurities, humors
and unhealthy matter, and makes this life-stream rich, pure and liealth-sus
tainiiig. S. S. S. reaches inherited blood taints and so enriches the circulft
tion that diseases of years standing are permanently cured. It contains n>
harmful minerals and is nature's real blood purifier. Book on the blood am

There is a popular fear of leprosy. But
