LEADS REVOLT IN NAVY
Demands Place In Cabinet and Will
Not listen to Military League,
Rebel Ships Still Roam the
Greek Sea.
ATHENS. Oct. 29. Nayal mutiny to
day followed the army mutiny of sev
eral weeks ago which forced a change
in the cabinet at the dictation of the;
Military League. Headed by Lieuten
ant Thihaldos, 300 officers and men of
the navy seized a flotilla of eight torpedo-boats,
went to the Island of Sal
amis and seized the arsenal. A battle
lasting 20 minutes followed between
the mutineers and the loyal forces,
consisting of field guns and big war
ships. One of the torpc do-hoats was
disabled, another fled toward the Bay
,of Leuslna and a third has put to sea.
When the loyal ships opened the at
tack, a sharp exchange of shots fol
lowed. Only one shell hit a torpedo
boat the Splendona which was Im
mediately enveloped in a cloud of
smoke and proved to be disabled.
Troops Recapture Arsenal.
The torpedo-boats gradually Tetlred un
til they obtained shelter off the head
land, when firing ceased. The rebel ves
sels returned the fire of the warships
and field batteries, but apparently little
damage was done on either side.
Athens remained quiet tonight, hut
much suppressed excitement prevailed.
An official statement was Issued, stating
that the arsenal, which was in the hands
of the rebels, had been recaptured and
that the mutinous torpedo-boats were, ex
pected to surrender.
Revolt Against Compromise.
Lieutenant Tibaldos appeared to have
been actuated by his disapproval of the
tactics of the Military League and the
Junior naval officers in consenting to ne
gotiate a compromise of the ultimatum
recently issued by the Military ISeague
for an ordinance suspending all promo
tion for five years and abolition of the
posts of Rear-Admlral. Vice-Admiral and
13 places of lesser rank. Tibaldos took
a prominent part In the military move
ment last August. He was the first of
ficer to go to the camp at Goudl, outside
the city, after the Premiers refusal to
receive a deputation of officers, and he
subsequently was appointed commander
of the rebel company.
At a meeting of the Military League
yesterday Tibaldos said:
"I led the last revolt and without me
it would have failed. Now you abandon
me. but I will carry out a second revolt
single-handed."
Say Tibaldos Is Mad.
The Military League's proclamation
disowning Tibaldos, who was In command
of a flotilla of torpedo-boats and sub
marines and demanded the portfolio of
Minister of Marine, ascribes his preten
sions to madness and the influence of
outsiders, and threatens to have him
court-martialed for treason. The league
met late tonight to discuss Its attitude
toward naval officers who took part in
the fight. It Is believed the league is
'inclined to show them Indulgences.
Meanwhile the position of the mutinous
torpedo-boats resembles that of the Rus
sian battleship Kniax Potemkln, which
mutinied in 1905 and fired on Odessa and
then roamed the Black Sea for several
weeks and the government is apprehen
sive as to where it next will hear of
them. It Is rumored they have gone
toward the Island of Crete,
Government Will Show Mercy.
In the Chamber of Deputies today.
Premier Mavrominehalis said the govern
ment was determined to suppress the out
break by force. Happily the movement
was rery limited. The ministers, he said,
were occupied in reforms in all branches
of administration and would not neglect
the navy. Therefore, the officers' im
patience waa unjustified. The Premier
added, however, that if the naval officers
had been led astray, they still had time
to rehabilitate themselves.
Origin of Revolt.
Regarding the origin of the revolt, the
government, in response to the demands
of the naval officers (or the suspension
of promotion for five years and the aboli
tion of certain naval posts, had consented
to Introduce a navy purification bill, but
It Insisted that the bill must be absolutely
Impersonal and declared that it would
flatly reject any proposals aimed at in
dividual officers.
The Military League accepted this solu
tion, but Lieutenant Tibaldos branded it
as Inadequate and secretly convened a
meeting of naval officers, who all signed
document, laying down their minimum
Jemauds.
This document Lieutenant Tibaldos
presented Thursday night to Colonel
Tsorbas, head of the Military League,
and at the same time appealed to the

LOS ANGELES. Cal.. Oct. 29.-(Special.)
Otis L. McConnell told a hard-luck story
to Judge James today, and it was suffi
cient to secure a decree of divorce from
Louisa M. McConnell. The couple were
married In Horseheads. N. T., In 1905.
After the ceremony the wife remained at
Elm Ira, X. T., to take care of her mother.
It was agreed that she should come to
this city as soon as possible. The mother
died, and McConnell Insisted on his. wife
Joining him here. Finally he received this
fetter from her:
"I will tell you hnw I feel about coming
to Los Angeles, and then you may eee
how Impossible it Is for me to ever come
and live with you. I love John with my
whole heart and soul, and, feeling like
that, it would he wrong for me to ever
think of living with you. I did the great
est wrong to marry 'ou. hut " would 08
a still greater wrong to try and live with
you when I love some one else as I do."
The "John" referred to is John Allen,
a young man who at one time was about
to marry the writer of the missive.

MYSTERY IS MORE PUZZLING
Electricity and Earthquake
Theories Scouted.
PSYCHIC FORCE ADVANCED
Dr. Morrison, Kector Trinity Chnrch,
Declares Manifestation Essential
ly Spiritualistic Boy Alleged
Responsible Is Unconcerned.
'OT EIJ5CTRICTT, TWO DECLARE
Orin B. Coldwell. who has charge
of the electrical department of the
Portland Railway. Light & Power
Company, said last night he could
not understand how electricity could
have anything to do with the phe
nomena at the home of the Sanders
family Thursday Afternoon. As wood
la not a conductor of electricity, Mr.
Ooldwell says It could not be subject
to electrical effects. The recent ac
tivity of the Aurora Borealis, which
put cable and telegraph lines In
many places out of commission,
might furnish some basis of a theory
In this case, Mr. Coldwell explains.
If the manifestations had sot been
confined to one house,' and If the
effect had been limited to such
articles as were conductors of elec
tricity, such as knives, forks and
cooking utensils.
Dr. A. A. Morrison, rector of
Trinity Episcopal Church, said:
"The electricity theory Is the most
absurd of all. Electricity does not
-.cause any such manifestations. It la
a matter of psychic phenomena, in
my opinion, a manifestation of an
unusual Intelligence."
Twenty-four hours of Investigation and
speculation have served only to deepen
the mystery attendant npon the weird
performances at the home of J. P. San
ders, Mo Marshall street, Thursday af
ternoon, when furniture and utensils
spent several hours cutting: up queer
pranks, as if suddenly possessed of inde
pendent animation. No satisfactory ex
planation waa arrived at yesterday, and
perhaps none will ever be found.
The whole city gave up much of Its
time to theorizing- yesterday and hun
dreds of people visited the place where
the strange things occurred, hoping: to
get new light on the subject. Various ex
planations were advanced by- people of
varying temperament and beliefs. There
was a cock-sureness about many of these
so-called explanations, especially those
advanced by persons of a skeptical turn
of mind. But every explanation, scien
tific or otherwise, struck, on the reefs of
obstinate contrary evidence.
"Electric disturbances nothing so very
uncommon, " urged those who sought a
solution out of scientific motives.
"Phychic phenomena, pure and simple,"
averred those of less material views.
"Spooks acting through a boy medium,"
Insisted the spiritualistic element

the best financial inducement the win
ner to take a side bet of 10,000 and 75
per cent of the purse, the loser to take
25 per cent
Preliminary discussion was scheduled
for 3 o'clock at the Hotel Albany. Jef
fries and his manager were punctual to
the minute, but Johnson elbowed his
way diffidently through the crowd ten
minutes late. At the table, as the men
took their places, sat Jeffries with Bob
Vernon at his left and Sam Berger. his
manager, at his right; George Little,
Johnson's manager; George Consldlne,
"Honest" John Kelly, Sam Harris, Sam
Nelson, Bob Murphy and other well
known sporting men.
Johnson Appears Nervous.
Jeffries eyed the negro curiously, but
did not meet his glance. Johnson was
affable, but showed his nervousness by
his frequent gTins and his constant
clicking of .two red dice, which he car
ried half concealed In the palm of his
right hand.
Both principals posed for the pho
tographer, and when the smoke of the
flashlights had qleared, promptly got
down to business.
Jeffries let Berger do his talking, but
Johnson broke in frequently with sug
gestions and objections. Nevertheless,
It was remarked as the articles took
form that Jeffries was winning nearly
every point for which he contended.
Negro Wants Name First.
It was agreed that the men should
box "for the heavyweight champion
ship of the world." At this point John
son insisted that the present champion's
name should precede the retired unde
feated champion's name in the written
agreement. To this Jeffries quickly as
sented. Berger then suggested that the
fight go to the club making the highest
responsible bid within the next 30 days.
Little agreed, but Johnson, shaking his
head dubiously, asked that each bid be
accompanied by a 15000 forfeit as a
guarantee of good faith. Jeffries nod
ded and Berger gave his assent.
"And have a man on the ground with
the coin," stipulated Johnson.

GERMAN LIKES REPORTERS
Admiral von Koester Says American
Writers Are Fair.
BERLIN, Oct. 29. Grand Admiral
von Koester, commander of the German
fleet which took part in the Hudson
Fulton celebration at New York, to
day paid a tribute to American news
papermen: "I had heard a good deal about the
American reporter," said vAdmlral von
Koester, "and felt a certain shyness as
to how I should get along with him.
My first experience was to have five
cameras leveled at me In different
angles.
"Daily thereafter, I talked with many
reporters. Not one got me wrong; not
once was I misrepresented. Often I
mentioned things In confidence, and In
no instance was that confidence be
trayed. The reporters whom I met In
the United States treated me with deli
cacy and afforded me a feeling of fair
play which I admire and appreciate."
A German-American evening has been
arranged for November 4, and a fea
ture of it will be a speech by the Ad

Journalist Convicted in New York
of Injuring an Editor.
NEW TORK, Oct. 29. Carlo di Fomaro.
caricaturist and journalist, was found
guilty of malicious libel by a Jury before
Judge Malone In the Court of General
Sessions late today and was remanded
to the Tombs for sentence on Monday.
He was charged- with having libeled
Rafael Reyes Espindota. editor of El Im
partial, of Mexico City. The supposed
libel was contained in a book entitled
"Diaz, the Czar of Mexico," published in
this country.
In charging the Jury, Judge Malone said
that a writer has a right to comment on
actions of public men, but such comment
must be fair and honest. The freedom
of the press, he added, must not be In
terpreted to afford a vehicle for the de
famation of a private citizen, even though
he is in public life.
Attorney George E. Josephs declared
that the real plaintiff In the case was
the government of Mexico, "the tyran
nical government whose misdeeds Carlo
di Fornaro exposed."
