St Petersburg, June 22.—A large proportion of the news appearing In the papers of this city this morning consists of dispatches telling of mili tary disaffection. In addition to the outbreaks at Sevastopol and Ryazan, reported on Thursday, the t dispatches report that the garrison of Krasno yarsk, capital of the province of Yen isei, and one of the principal cities of Siberia, mutinied and killed its offi cers out of hand. The trouble was caused by an in toxicated colonel named Shurin, who, hearing a titter from a group of en listed men, sabred one of the soldiers. The latter’s companions thereupon felled the colonel with clubs. Two of the soldiers were arrested, and as soon as the news spread the regiment mutinied and demanded the release of their comrades. Captain Kosmin, who ordered his company to fire on the mutineers, was killed by his own men. The population of Krasnoyarsk is in a panic. Minister*• of Marine Birileff again visited Cronstadt yesterday and urged the mutinous sailors to return floyally to their duty. Kielce, a Polish city with ;a great Jewish population, was on the verge yesterday of an experience such as that through which Bialystok has just passed. During a religious procession, a shot was fired, wounding a gend- ' arme, but the police succeeded in Holding the populace in check. The man who fired the shot, a Pole, was arrested. At Gomel, where rumors of an im pending anti-Jewish outbreak are rife, the military authorities yesterday summoned a deputation of Jews, who declared that , they had evidence that excesses were being planned and even named the leaders of the ifiot; but the commandant succeeded in reassuring them. Probably as the direct result of the Bialystok affair, the Jews of Moscow have been allowed to open the only synagogue in the city, which has been closed for twenty years. The prefect in announcing the Emperor’s decision asked the rabbis to use their influence with the Jewish youth to restrain them from their revolutionary course. GEORGIA TECH’S NEW PRESIDENT.

He is one of the aldermen, however, who “kicks out of the traces" when things do not go to suit him, and this is what makes ''T' , , "Rt-ncTiiac some of those who want an indeppnd- OUlll -DrUoflcS, ent candidate throw their eyes in his direction. It is too early to say with positiveness who will run for mayor, but Captain Davant is one of the men to be reckoned with. Mr. George W. Tledeman is. another man.

Mr. Tledeman has always been a Citizens’ Club man, but on the last election day he showed up with a People’s League- badge pinned on his coat, and this put the wise ones to talking. 10c to $1.
