WASHINGTON, November 20.-One West
Virginia man has attracted some attention
in a small circle here. Mr. Smith, who
claims to have been elected to Congress
from the Parkersburg district, has put in
an appearance, and his first effort was to
induce newspaper correspondents to take
up his case. He visited the Office of every
Republican correspondent and asked the
neyspaper men to print his partisan side OF
his case, Smith succeeded in persuading
several correspondents TO send out
his statement, thus hoping TO forestall the
decision on his case. He went TO the
House posto flee and in All authoritative
manner wanted to know why his mail had
not been delivered three times day. lie
was trea'ed courteously by the Democratic
officials. but. in fact, Mr.. Smith has no
claim upon the postofice. Any favoTs ex-
tended to him are simply matters OF coutt-
esy.
West Virginia Republican contestants
for seats in the House are not at present
getting much aid from their partisans.
Most of the Republicans agree with Gfos-
yenor. of Oaio, that their party IS too weak
TO attempt any arbitrary action. Ine
Democrats are determined to maintain their
rights at all hazards.

PITTsBURG, November 20.-It is an
nounced to-day that a syndicate, headed
By Col. W. H. Sims, Of New York City, has
been organized for the control of the Mon

and vessels are to be turned over to the
syAdicste in return for stock. Options ex-
pire on December 10 and before that time
details will be arranged.
The magnitude of the Trust may be OBJ
tanned from the following figures: The
Monungahela Valley coal district embraces
ZOO square miles. There are 125 minee,
employing nearly 1900 miners. Four
thousand three hundred vessels are used
in transporting the coal. OF these 14O are

dollars is to he invested and the annusl
produce is valued at S15. 600, 600.

timony was lengthy. Mr. Foster said his
purpose was TO show that Beggs volun-
tarily told the States Attorney of the Gro
min correspondence and the sclion OF Camp
20. Bsggs sent this correspondence to
Longenecker in his own behalf. After
that Spellman was subpenaed, and with
Beggs' consent, furnished the letters which
Beggs had written him, and of which the
States Attorney knew nothing. The Court
told Mr.. Foster that he was entitled to
show these facts if possible, and the ex-
animation proceeded.
Mr.. LongenecKer testified that Beggs
told him in relation to the Cronin CORE
spondence, and in pursuance of it witness
had Spellman subpenaed, to produce the
letters he had written to Beggs. Beggs
told the witness that there were letters
which he had written to Spellman and
Spellmsn had written to him, which ex-
planned the whole secret convention
arrangement. Chief of Police Hubbard was
called: Chief Hubbard admitted that
Beggs, after being arrested, had been Wis
tied by him, and they had conversation
regarding letters written 10 Beegs by
Spellman. Beggs directed the Chief to his
Office and 10 the particular portion Of the
desk in which a large number Of letters
were to be found, and instructed him to
select all letters that had been received
from Peoria and take them to Judge Longe-

BRIGHT FOR BRAZIL.
THB FUTURE PAINTED BY TIKI IMPBRIAL
MINISTER.
Tie Brazilian Representative at Washington Salts
fed That the Republic Will be Success
Important Reforms to be Undertaken
Extension Of Suffrage.

WASHINGTON, November 20.-Dr. Val
ente, the Brazilian Minister, has not yet
been officially requested to ask the United
States government to recognize the United
States Of Brazil. He believes that such
a request will not be made Immediately,
but that the new government will wait a
reasonable length of time in order to satisfy
the world of it's stability before seeking
formal recognition. The Minister regards
the views Of the dominant Republi-
cans, az set forth in their manifesto,
ss most reasonable in all respects, and as
they have assumed all the obligations and
debts Of the Empire, and have guaranteed
the fullest measure of protection and per-
sonal liberty to the citizens Of other ma
tiOns residing in Brazil, as we'll as security
to their vested interests, he cannot see any
cause for dissatisfaction abroad at the re-
cent change. In mis- view, a constitutional
convention must be assembled in Brszil ct
the earliest possible moment. This body
will probably readjust the boundaries or
representation of the twenty existing
provinces, which vary largely in size and
density Of population.
A STEP FORWARD.
The Senate will also have to be recon-
structed. It's abolition as the first act Of
the revolution has been misunderstood as
tending toward despotism. As a matter
Of fact, said DR.. Valente, il was a Liberal
movement, as will be understood when it
is generally known that the Senators un-
der the old regime were elected for life,
and. il has been asserted, did not always
continue to reflect the views of their con-
stituents The minister also looks foE-
ward to an extension of the right Of sut-
frage by the constitutional convention.
At present, in addition to the ordinary re-
quirements Of age and citizenship, the
voter must be possessed of an income OF
not less than 5000 per annum. This re-
quirement has been literally construed,
yst there is a demand for its abolition.
NO UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE.
Because of the mixed character Of the
population of Brazil, the minister believes
that it would hardly be wise to have un-
restricted suffrage at present, bat iavors
the imposition of a requirement that after
q period of four years from the date OF the
adoption of the new constitution voters
must at least be able to write their NAMES
or read. This he believes, would stimu-
late popular education and cause the un'
educated people to avail themselves of the
free schools which already abound in Bra
I'll. Altogether, DR.. VAleDte takes a most
hopeful view of the situation. 1T is not
the destruction of the building" said he,
"but rather renovation"
