SERVITUDE.

At the end of October sailors of tho torpedo detachment ashore and the crews of four torpedo boat destroyers in the harbour, instigated by agitators, opened fire on tho town. The crow of the Story murdered the commander, but the men oh the other destroyers, seeing tho vigorous action taken by the shore batteries, which had quickly riddled the Story so badly that she had to be beached, landed the ringleaders of the disaffection in each, returned to duty, and helped to subdue the mutinous ones.
