BATAVIA, Java, Feb. 6.--(A.P.)— Extreme measures were taken today w make sure that mutinous native jgamefi, approaching the Japanese

city of Sourabaya aboard the Dutch cruiser De Zeven Provincien, which they seized early yesterday, do not take control and inaugurate a reign of terror. Fear-stricken citizens asked that speCiBl precautions be taken also to prevent allegedly mutinous elements of the Sourabaya. population from arising. Meanwhile it appears that the mutinous crcw of the cruiser would surrender the shlp soon to the commander.

"We do not intcnd violence, but will deliver thc shlp officially into the hands oi.‘ thcCommander a day before our arrival at Souraboya. Our object is to protest against an unjust wage out and against the 11r- ‘rest of those whoprotesicd lash eek. No "one on boulk? has been rt. 0n thc contrary, all are well.” ‘ Imprisoned aboard thc cruiser were nine Dutch officers and sev- eral petty officers. ‘She was lust rc- poricd off thc coast of Sumatra. in the vicinity of Babl Island.
