Abortive Mutiny By Naval Vessels
CALM NOW RULES IN ALL PARTS OF COUNTRY
Lisbon, Sept. 8:
As a result of a mutiny aboard warhships in Lisbon's harbour, a "state of precaution" has been formally proclaimed.
Troops are confined to barracks and strategic points have been occupied by the police, who are guarding the Ministries and public buildings.
Six were killed and nine wounded during the fighting during the morning, when warships and fortresses exchanged shell-fire,
An official communique states that the mutiny has been completely suppressed and all the mutineers im- prisoned.
It adds that the mutiny is condemned by the Navy and by the whole country, and absolute calm now reigns.-Reuter Bulletin Service.
PLOT DISCOVERED
Lisbon. Sept. 8.
It is learned that five persons were! killed and eight wounded among the revelting sailors on Portuguese war- ship to-day, and the remainder of the mutinous crews are now in cus-! texty.
It was apparent that the garrison! -troops were apprised of the intended uprising in advance, since they im- mediately commenced firing when the mutineers showed their colours.
It is noteworthy that several navat vessels in the vicinity of the rebel- sub- three lious ships, including marines, did not participate in the action..
The British steather Strathmore put to sea on the opening of the action, to escape possible damage by shellfire.

Investigation of the murder of Indian Walchman Mohammed Khan, whose body was discover- ed off Pokfulum Road, near the Chinese Cemetery, early this | morning, is believed to have dis- closed that the man was the victim of a well-planned crime in which at least two persons participated.

The British destroyer Tempest, arriving here with refugees, reported that she saw 86 boatloads of San Sebastian people, including civilians and soldiers, between San Sebastian and Bilbao, while on her way here.
It is estimated that 6,000 have already fled from San Sebastian, on whose outer defences the insurgent army under General Mola is marching from the shattered city of Irun. These people have sought refuge since Irun's fall.
Meanwhile, eighteen Spanish men and two women have arrived here in an open fishing boat. One of them, a priest clad in overalls, said he had hidden for eight days on the outskirts of San Sebastian before he could manage his escape.
