seasons greetings last night ex-President

An Event in Catholic History.

ST. PAUL, Dec. ga great number of
Catholics are gathering here to witness the
ceremonies tomorrow, when three bishops
will be consecrated. There will be up
wards of three hundred priests and bishops
in attendance. The event is notable par
ticularly because it is the second time that
three bishops have been consecrated to-
gether in the United States, and the first
time in the history of the church that three
have been from one diocese. The ceremony
will be conducted by Archbishop Ireland,
assisted by several noted prelates. The
priests on whom miters will be conferred
are Revs. John Stanley, of st. Paul;
James McGolrick, of Minneapolis, and
Joseph B. Cotter. of Winona.

Indications in Brazil.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26-The steamship
Sirius, which left Rio de Janeiro Deem
Der 4, arrived here to-day. She reports
several foreign warships, among them
the United States steamer Richmond, had
arrived at that harbor and that quietness
reigned in the city but that a riot had
taken place in Rio de Janiero district al
though no particulars could be learned up
10 the time of sailing. Captain Fisher, of
the Sirius, was seen by a reporter and
said: ''We were at Rio; everything was
quiet, and business was going on as usual,
although the banks were a bit wary and
drafts for over one hundred pounds would
not be honored. There was, however, an
under current of discomfort manifested
and l am not surprised TO hear of an out
break there since we left. There is evil
IDENTIFY considerable number of the peo-
pie of the city who desire to see the en-
pire re-established. The sentiment has
not taken shape in any definite movement,
but mutterings of dissatisfaction were
heard. The truth was the Punishment of
Dom Pedro and the proclamation of the
republic came with such suddenness that
the adherents of the empire had no time to
make any demonstration. When we were
there looked for troubles not only in Rio
but throughout Brazil for some time to
come. Those at the head of the new
movement have not pleasant prospect be-
fore them by any means"
w. R. Grace to-day received a cable
from Rio, that exchange there is quoted
at 2415 pence which is a fall of 80 pence
since Dom Pedro was deposed, Rubber

Exchange is at 9415 per cent. below par
Grace said he was not an alarmist but there
are indications of serious trouble brewing.
He believed that Brazil contained more
corrupt officials than any country on the
face of the globe. If the press had the
same liberty as in this country, the
rascality would be exposed in way that
would be surprising.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1889-12-27

from Ruy. Barboza, minister of finance
under the new regime: From cablegrams
we learn that unfortunately there is nc
speculation from newsmongers against US
which is not credited in Europe in spite of
all our warnings against this sort of con-
spiracy. Reports about the meeting
Of corps of artillery are false.
There was only meeting of few sol
diers, which was Immediately suppressed.
This circumstance has increased her con-
fidence in the government which shows
itself strong and prepared with prompt
and decisive means to put down any dis
turbance Of the public order. The aggra-
walton of General Fonseca's illness is not
true. On the contrary he is recovering
speedily from his former complaints. At
any rate the fate of the revolution is
now accepted by the whole country, and
does not depend on the contingency of one
mans life, however precious it may be. In
the army itself the revolution can rely on
other chiefs of great prestige and no less
devotion to the cause. All the different po-
litical parties have espoused with enthu-
siasm, the time fixed November Is, 1900,
for the meeting of the constituent assem-
bly,, they considering that by this act the
stability Of the republic is insured.
