MUTINY ON A DESTROYER. London, Jan. 30. The Daily Chronicle states that eight seamen on a British destroyer were charged with mutiny at Devonport. The prosecution states that the men refused duty at sea because the commander refused to create three watches instead of two. The commander went ashore and the men hoisted a red flag, though they hauled it down at the commander's order. One of the accused declared that half the British Navy was on strike and the remainder soon would be. They refused to work in two watches on existing pay.—Aus.-N-I. Cable Assoc.
TRANSFEE OP GIBRALTAR , REFUSED. London, Jan. 31. Great Britain has finally refused to consider the transfer of Gibraltar to Spain.—Aus.-NZ. Cable Assn.
