Amsterdam, July 25.
A mutiny occurred in the Spanish steamer Baurdo whilst lying at an-char at Vlaardingen. Netherlands harbour police were called to intervene.
Prior to the capture of Bilbao by the Nationalists, the Baurdo was on her way from Bilbao to Leningrad. On the return journey the ship put in at the Netherlands harbour of Dordrecht, Later, while at sea, the captain and officers declared themselves in favour of Gen. Franco and stated their intention to place their vessel at the disposal of the Spanish Nationalists instead of returning to Valencia. This led to mutiny among the crew. The captain dropped an-char at Vlaardingen and sought the protection of the harbour police who impounded arms and ammunition in possession of members of the crew. A police guard has been left on board the ship until an arrangement has been made for allowing those members of the crew who are in favour of Valencia to proceed thither by another route. Later the steamer will sail for Bilbao.—Trans-Ocean.
