ONLY A SCARE.
The Anglo-Portuguese Dispute
Will Be AmicabIy Adjusted.


Will Be AmicabIy Adjusted.
LONDON, Dec. 27.-The British squad
ron of action has been ordered to rem
devious at Gibraltar. in order to be in
readiness to move at once to Lisbon.
The Temeraire has already arrived, and
the Colossus and Benhow left Malta this
afternoon. This is interpreted as indi-
eating that the government no longer
apprehendS that a Quasi-warlike move
ment will add to the irritation already
existing or stand in the way of peace
full solution of the troubles. The CONT
mental press, including the semi-Official
and official ORGANS. give evidence of be-
ing more perturbed over the
Anglo Portuguese dispute than
any of the journals of the dis
putting countries, though in their
expressions there is no intimatlOn that
it NAV be deemed advisable for any of
the powers to interfere in the matter.
The Russian press is naturally inclined
TO take the part of Portugal in discuss
ing the merits of the quarrel, and is
unanimous in the declaration that Eng
land has no right to expect the SYM
pathy of her continental nrignbOrs in
her present difficulty. since her own
African policy has always been, and is
still, selfish. aggressive and laundering.
In the present instance Portugal has
merely done what England has been
doing for years, and in getting dose of
her own medicine she shows the per-
versity of the child in refusing to take
it. The German press is. as rule. no
more disposed to side with England
than areits Russian contemporaries. The
Cologne Gazette takes substantially the
the same grounds as those taken by the
st. Petersburg papers in imputing TO
England a policy of selfish greed in
Africa which raises her indignant wrath
at the alleged eneroachments of Portu-
gal to the height of absurdity.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 81. - Senior

ceived a cablegram from Senior Ruy
Barboza, the minister of finance of the
provisional government of Brazil. dated
Rio Janeiro, Dec u, of which the fol-

klowledged to the police authorities the
wisdom of the acts of Punishment. EX-
Premier the Nicceount Ouro PretO,
has been baniShed on account of acts
of conspiracy on the part OF his fol-
lowers. The imperial family, because
of their having changed their attitude
taken here from aequieScenee, to encour-
agement of the pretenSIOnS of reaction,
and making this the cause OF the
throne. were deprived OF the civil list
and the subsidy. The provisional gov
eminent maintained the civil list as an
act of mere tolerance, unheard OF In any
other revolution, and added to this
subsidy of S2,500,0 900. The emperor ae-
eeDted both here, but on his arrival in
Europe. under the advice of disastrous
eOunSelorS who had brought about the
fall of the monarchy refused the subsidy
because it was an act of the revolution,
but accepted the civil list as right
based upon law. In view of this denial
of the Legitimacy of the revolution.
which has been sanctioned by the whole
country, our measure cutting OF the
civil list ana subsidy was an act of mere
common sense. These measures have
here met with general support. Let
Europe reflect on her revolutions
effected at the expense of
FLOODS OF BLOOD
and great financial disasters. We
have accomplished ours without one
drop of blood and the least financial
trouble. Whoever thus conducts him
self in the most trying moments must
be able to manage his affairs with suffi-
cient discretion and judgment. We
shall continue to respect all rights,
maintain the tribunals, organize the adj
ministration, observe all contracts and
keep up the budget; but any ATTEMPT

With implacable severity. Commerce,
agriculture and the working classes
call upon Us TO assume this attitude.
We shall hand over to the constitutional
convention the republic intact. Those
who believe that this convention is
called to decide between the republic
and the monarchy. are mistaken. The
monarchy is out of the question. The
constitutional convention will only have
to organize the republic. There is no
more nronarchic party here. The Euro
pean press should not be misled by
newsm0ugers whose Vaccinations are
here objects either Of amaZement or de-
riSiOn. These mistakes of the press TO-
ment here schemes of disturbance, but
the dilemma is now simply republic or

Edison's Beginning in Boston.

Edison'S Beginning in Boston.
St. Louis Globe Democrat
Thomas Edison had been in sew eral
Western telegraph Offices, where he was
looked upon as an expert, and was at
length ordered to Boston to fill va
cancy. The weather was warm. and he
donned linen clothes and broad
brimned hat. Before he reached BoS-
ton the weather turned cold and stormy,
but just as he was, linen buster and all,
he reported at the telegraph Office.
He walked into the superintendent
room and said, ''Here | am"
The superintent looked the young fell
low over with critical eye, and asked,
''Who are you?"
tom Edison,' was the reply.
who's Tom Edison?"
The young operator explained that he
had been ordered to report for duty,and
the superintendent told him to sit down
in the operating room. His advent
there created considerable amusement,
and the operators guyed him not little.
Edison sat quietly. making no outward
sign of disturbance. An hour Or more
passed. and then New York sender,
noted for his swiftness, signaled the
office. There was no one to receive his
message. the operators all being other
wise engaged.
''Let the new fellow take him." said
superintendent.
Young Edison sat down at the in
Strument, and for four hours ana half
wrote out messages in clear, round
hand, struck a date and number on
them and threw them OH the floor for
the Office boy to pick up. The time he
took in numbering and dating were the
only moments he was not writing out
transmitted words.
Faster and faster licked the instru-
ment, and faster and faster moved
EdiSon's fingers. till the rapidity with
which the messages came tumbling out
attracted the attention of other Oper-
atOrS, who, when their work was done,
gathered around to witness the specta-
Gle. At the close of four hours and a
half, and of the New York business,
there flashed from New York the salu-
ton:
"Hellor'
Hello yourselfI' licked back Edison.
"Who are you?' sounded the instru-
ment.
"Tom Edison" was licked back.
'Tom Edison, I'm glad to know you."
came over the wires. ''You are the
only man that could take me at my
fastest. and the first man who ever sat
at the other end of my wire for over
two hours ard half. l congratulate
the Office in getting you there"
The young man in the limp buster
and SLOUGH hat had won his first laurels
in the Boston office. He was never
guyed after the first day.

CHICAGO. Dec, 27.-John Boos, res
. ident of Harlem, H., was found in the
river near the Rush street bridge last
night with his skull crushed in and in
drowning condition. The circumstances
surrounding the finding point to a rob
berry and an attempted murder. HooS
became unconscious shortly after his
arrival at the county hospital, but dur
ing the ride he said he had been IN the
company of his brotheT-in-law, whose
name he did not give. He said that
his relative had robbed him ard
then thrown him into the river
HooS said that during the day he sold
has property in Harlem to his relative,
receiving 5000. 1t is not known
whether he had this money with him at
the time he was assaulted. Nothing
was found on his person except some
private papers of no great value or i'm
portance. After making these state
ments, HoOs sunk into a e0matoSe con-
ditiOn. The attending physician gave
il as his opinion that the wounds were
produced by blunt instrument. proba-
bly, by hammer. There is hole IN
the back of the mans head two inches
in diameter. the skull being broken
away. disclosing the brain. Another
injury was just back of the right ear,
the skull being crushed and resting on
the brain. A trepanning opera
ton was necessary as the only
chance of saving the mans life.
HOOs is better this morning. and will. it
is thought. recover. His brether-ln-
law. j. ". GetZman, was arrested this
morning. HoOs is a piano tuner by
profession. and lives at l,503 Park ave-
nue.. New York city. GetZman denies
thai he had anything TO do with the as
Sault on HOOs. GetZman says he was
the executor OF the estate of the elder
HOoS. and that i'm response to a notice
that il had been settled. Hoos came here
on Christmas TO receive his share,
which amounted to about $1,000. GetZ-
man shows a receipt from H0Os for the
amount given yesterday. GetZman Is
Salo0nkeeper. and HooS was "dOne up"
and thrown into the river in the rear of
his place. The police suspect Getzman
of hiring a tough character to whom he

TIN ENOUGH FOR ALL.
The Mines of Dakota Are Prae-
ticallY lnexhaustable.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 27.-An in
teresting and important statement was
made before the ways and means COM
mittee at this morning session relative
to Dakota tin mines. W. C. Cronemayer,
a lin plate manufacturer of Pittsburg,
stated that with the recent develop
ments of tin mines in Dakota it now
seems practically certain that this coun-
try, with some additional protection for
tin plate, can manufacture all the tin
plate required for use here, and also
make it for other parts of the world.
The tin mines of Dakota, he says, are
now believed to be sufficient to supply
all the tin required not only for this
country, but for the world, and, with
but small announcement, there could
be tin plate works established in this
country which would furnish employ
ment to $4,000 persons.
