One night the master frustrated an attempt to murder himself and his family and seize the ship, he said. Captain Stewart then placed the fifigleaders in chains. As the alleged mutiny was not dommitted within the. 'three-mile neutrality limit, the Turks arraigned were ordered kept in a court prison until the case should be brought to the attention of the British consul- general here. Captain Stewart said he would ask the consul-general to have the Turks transferred to one of the British cruisers off this harbor, for trial on a charge of mutiny.

IN WAR TIME OUR EASTERN GUARDIAN 1S BUSY THESE DAYS. The Great Warships Come Slipping Into Her Harbor For Coal and Bearing News of the Clearing Up of the Atlantic -- Patriotic Citi- zens Turned to and Coal Suffolk to Rest Sailors. "The Warden of the Honor of the North, Sleepless but veiled am 1." : So wrote Kipling of Ealifax, more than fifteen years ago, in his stirring 'Song of the Cities.' To-day, Halifax is the capital, of all Dominion cities, which is nearest the throb of Eu- rope's warfare. Yet it would not be true to preseht aspects, to describe the capital of Nova Scotia as being agitated with war fever or in the throes of a tumultuous excitement. Halifax is too old a grey Sea Mother to yield, at this moment, to belliger- ent hysteria. There is no shrinking from the warfare, but there is a grave realization of the Yastness of the struggle. Since the declaration w Great Bri- tain on Aug. 4th at 11 p.m. that a state of warfare exists between the Empire and Germany, Halifax has found life to consist of one British cruiser' after another. First on the list was the Suffolk, the flagship of Rear Admiral Craddock, commanding the Fourth Cruiser Squadron. The information given out in Halifax on the arrival of this ship on the 13th showed that for tem days, the ships of the Fourth Cruiser Squadron were occupied in making the North Atlan- tie practically a British mill pond. The Suffolk also brought news of the chase of the Karlsruhe, near Ber- muda. The Suffolk had made an ear- ly eapture when she took the Ger- man oil tanker, Leda, and sent her into Bermuda under a prize crew, and Halifax shared the interest of the Suffolk's men, féw of them knowing that prize money had been abolished. A most interesting feature of the Suffolk's stay was the Volunteer Coaling Movement. The men of the flagship were in sore need of a rest, and a happy inspiration sent a de- tail of the 63rd Rifles to the yArds, and the sailors rested, while the mili- tiamen struggled under the coal bas- kets, to the tune of "Rule Britannia," as played by the Suffolk's band. Citi- zens joined in the movement, thor- oughly enjoying this practical pa- triotism, a business firm sent forty men and the City Works Department also generously contributed a band of willing toilers. The last bag of the 1,400 tons of coal was thrown into the bunkers before midnight and the Suffolk was ready for sea. Rear Ad- miral Craddock wrote a. hearty let- ter of thanks and the sailors cheered the Volunteer Coaling Force as the begrimed and happy citizens took their way into the city. The ordinary summer social life of Halifax goes on--with a difference. Behind and beneath it"all, there is a sense of eternal vigilnce. Five young midshipmen, graduates of Halifax Naval College, sailed with the Suf- folk when it went out, and the com: ing of the Good Hope and the Glory emphasized the quiet but effective work the ships of the Fourth Cruiser Squadron are doing in the North At- lantic. The silence which has fallen upon Britain's military and naval life is brooding, too, over citadel and harbor in Canada's old point. Yet it is a quiet of intense activity and deadly preparation, and the Cana- dian who' has hitherto been an in- lander, regards it with a sudden ap- preciation of Kipling"s Halifax verse, "Sleepless but veiled am I." Halifax is one of the most ancient cities in Canada. Its magnificent harbor was discovered by the French, who were keenly on the alert for good harbors and strategic situations. They used Halifax as a basis for their attempt to retake Louisbourg after its capture by the New England forces in 1746. It was ih 1749, that the British took up the work of making Halifax a naval base, The British Govern- ment sent out 2,600 people, soldiers and settlers, under Col. Cornwallis, first governor of the colony, to lay the early foundations. It was from Halifax that a naval force was sent for the second capture of Louisbourg and for the final attack upon Quebec. During the Revolutionary War, 1776- 1783, expeditions were sent 'thence against Boston and New York. In 1812, it was again the rendezvous for the warships engaged In active operations against the United States. Besldes its military and naval his- tory, it has dn equally long and im- portant commercial history. From its docks merchant vessels have come and gone for one hundred .and fifty years. Its trade has been interna- tional -- with Europe, the West In- dies, and United States ports. To- day, especially during the winter months, the largest Canadian vessels running in the Atlantic make Halifax their first and last call. "As Can- ada's foreign trade has grown, Hali- fax has shared in the development with St, John, Quebec, and Montredl. Politically, also, the city has had a notable history. 'Many famous men have lived there. Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, father of Queen Vie: Nelson visited it in his wanderings. Prince William Henry, afterwards William IV. knew the harbor well. Sir John Ingles and' Sir Fenwick Williams, of Kent, both Nova Seco- tians, served in the garrison in the later years of their career. Sir Sam- uel Cunard, foirhder of the famous Cunard Line, the first line of steam- ers to run between Europe and Am- erica, got his shipping inspiration in this; hic netive city. It has produced 4 Tong line of frinous politicians, statesmen, and chigchmen. -- Cana- dian Courier. ¥ra. Johh Perry died on September 22nd, at Prince Albert, Sask., from heart failure.
