GERMANY'S TROUBLES.
CRACKING UP. CENTRAL POWERS DECAY MUTINIES UPON MUTINIES. Received 8.45. WASHINGTON, Oct 18. It is officially reported that the mutiny in the Austrian navy was caused by bad food and officers' ill-treatment. Clashes .occurred between Austrian sailors and the crews of a German Üboat fleet at Pola Sanguinary fighting took place and officers on both sides were killed The tension, which became most alarming, was due to the Germans' overbearing conduct. Extraordinary measures were taken and the flotilla was removed further south, down the Adriatic coast. The Austrian Admiralty made a desperate attempt to suppress the news which reached the United States via Berne, coupled with the account of mutinies among submarines at Ostend. This news has accentuated the belief that the Central Powers are rapidly cracking up.
