TEXT OF .EV CONSTITUTION Universal Suffrage for Both Sexes, but Jews Are Burred. ST. PETERSBURG, July 7.-U:30 A. M.) The Novosti this morning prints what It claims is the actual text of the orig inal draft of Minister of the Interior Bouligan's project for the formation of a representative assembly, which bears out the forecasts of the measure given In the Associated Press dispatches.

July C Such news as came from the Black Sea and Cau casus during the day was extremely alarming. The whole Crimean Peninsula Is on the verge of revolt, and anarchy reigns In the .mountains of the Caucasus from Batoum td Baku. At Theodosla the workmon are backing the mutineers. The crews of several ships in the harbor have Joined the muti neers; and the well-to-do class of the pop ulation has fled In panic. The guns of the Kniaz Potemkln are trained on the city, "and a bombardment Is momentarily expected. Only six hours away, on the other side of the peninsula. Admiral Chouknln's fleet, which Includes six warships, not counting Rear-Admiral Kruger's squad ron, lies at anchor under the menace of the guns of the fortress. Chouknin evi dently is afraid to test the loyalty of his crews by setting them the task'of cap turing the mutineers' ship. According to reports current In St. Pe tersburg, four torpedoboats. -with volun teers on board, have sailed for Theodosla to sink' the Kniaz Potemkln, but the re .ports lack confirmation and must be ac cepted with . reserve. The Strcmitelny. which actually had a volunteer crew on board for that purpose and missed her quarry at Kustenji, left Varna yesterday. Several boats which Lewis Nixon built are at Sevastopol completed and might be used. - Mr. Nixon himself has not been heard from, and telegrams dispatched to him remain unanswered. This does not indicate cause for alarm, so far as be personally Is concerned, but is probably due to the censorship. However. It tends to confirm the extreme gravity of the sit uation. Telegrams from the Caucasus, where a state bordering on anarchy has existed for a month say the news of the mutiny on board the Kniaz Potemkln made an eleotrical Jmpressjon, and was the signal for a general movement with which troops and police are practically power less to cope. Railroad traffic in all di rections has ceased, and the people are fleeing on horseback and In all kinds of vehicles over the mountain roads and trails. Almost consternation prevails In official circles here. IN -HANDS OF REBEL LEADERS "Wlrenlus Says Only Thing Is to Sink Potemkln. ST. PETERSBURG. July 6. Inquiry at the Admiralty this morning failed to confirm the report current late last night that the Kniaz Potemkln had already left Theodosla. Admiral Wlrenlus, chief of the naval staff. Informed the Asso ciated Press that according to the latest advices the battleship Is still at Theo dosla. "What will be done?" asked the cor respondent. "We cannot tell you," was the reply. "The whole affair is In the hands of Vice Admiral Chouknin, and he has not com municated his plans to us. Admiral Kru ger's ships were due to leave Odessa yesterday afternoon. They should now be arriving: at Sebastopol." "Do you think that upon their arrival Admiral Chouknin will direct the squadron- to try and capture the Kniaz Po temkln?" "We do not know what he will do. In my opinion the easiest and promptest solution would be to send a torpedoboat to fink her. and I have advocated that course.- The situation is grave. The ship Is not In the hands of her crew, but In the hands of the revolutionary commit tee which went on board at Odessa. They have Issued a high-sounding manifesto to the powers. They want to be considered Insurgents. .1 -presume their next step will be to ask for recognition as bellig erents. They know their heads are for feited and will stop at nothing. In the eyes of the law they are outlaws and pirates. The first thing necessary is to make an example of the crew and restore discipline in the Black Sea fleet," Admiral Wlrenlus said there was no truth In the report from Venice that 00 Russian sailors had destroyed a cruis er and sought refuge on board a British steamer bound for Constantinople. Xn Russian cruiser, the Admiral adds, has been destroyed, so far as be was awarej 3IEX REFUSE TO GO TO WAR Mutiny in Lithuanian and Lifeguard Regiments. BERLIN. July 6. A correspondent at Katbowitz, Silesia, says he learns from an altogether reliable source that 16 men were designated In each company of the Lithuania .Life Guard Regiment In "Warsaw to go to Manchuria June 2$, and that day the men so designated refused to go, and their comrades refused to make them do so. The Colonel of the Lithuanian Regiment sent to another Life Guard Regiment named the St. Petersburg for help, but the m.en refused to obey order, which was also the case with a third Life Guard Regiment, the Kcxholm. The Colonel of the Lithuanian Regiment then applied to the military commander of Warsaw, Ljeutenant-Gcneral Komaroff, who sent a detachment of Cossacks to the Mokotow camp. Some of the mutineers fired on the Cos jacks, who returned the fire, 34 altogether being killed before those who resisted were arrested.

"It will be the policy of the'commlsslon to provide these essentials as quickly as possible, and to only Increase the working force, aside from the mechanics neces vary to provide these necessities, as fast as the facilities Indicated 'can be fur nished.

In June 30 canal employes were stricken and there were four deaths, two of those dying be ing Americans appointed in the United States and two persons appointed locally on the Isthmus. There were also three cases of fever among employes of the Panama Railroad Company, -and no deaths. During the month of July up to the present there have been no new cases and there Is but one employe under treat mnt.
