All Quiet at Jessup,

CHICAGO, Dec. PA Jessup. Ga, special
says: Quiet reigns here; the last of the
volunteer military have been withdrawn
and the town is in charge of the civil
authorities, who have complete control
No bodies have been found since yesterday
morning, and the victims number only six,
three whites and three blacks Atm time
was the affair a riot. In its inception the
half-bree negro Indian, Bob Brewer, de-
fed arrest, killed two whites and wounded
the third. Mayor Hopps' call for troops
was unnecessary and aggravated the situa-
ton. The news spread throughout the
country and hundreds of irresponsible peo-
pie flocked to town on trains from every
direction. The leading spirit in the out
rage, committed after dark on the negroes
was lightningrod agent from Cincinnati.
The citizens were not connected with the
whippings and deplore the lawless acts.
Brewer has four followers, all well armed.
They may in retaliation kill some whites in
the sparsely settled country, but dare not
attack Jessup. They viii themselves be
killed eventually, as they are hunted by
hounds.

Monarchy is Out of fine Question.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE Brazilian
minister has received a cablegram from
Barboza, minister of finance dated Rio de
Janeiro, December q, saying, in part.
''Prenier Preto has been banished on &C
count of acts OF conspiracy on the part of
his followers. The imperial family, because
of having changed their attitude from one
of acquiescene to the encouragement Of
pretentions of reaction, were deprived OF
their civil list and subsidy. The Emperor,
under the advice of his distinguished coun-
cilors, was refused the subsidy because 1t
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
off the civil list and subsidy was an act OF
mere common sense. These measures have
here met with general support. We shall
continue to respect all rights, maintain
tribunals, organize administration, observe
all contracts and keep up the budget. But
any attempt against public order will
be depressed with implacable severity.
Commerce, agriculture and the working
classes call upon US to assume this attitude.
All shall hand over to the constitutional
convention the public business intact.
Those who believe this convention is called
to decide between a republic and mon
archy, are mistaken. Monarchy is out Of
the question. The European press should
not be misled by newsmongers, whose
Vaccinations are here objects either of
amazement or derision. These mistakes of
the press foment here schemes of disturb
ances, but the dilemma now is simply the
republic or anarchy"

that the coal, iron and railroad industry in
the south would be imperflled if coal were
placed on the free list. The men who work
the mines in the south are principally
negroes. These people had to be provided
with work, and if they did not receive work
A negro would not steal If he could get
work. He, Imboden, was q protectienist,
he always had been one, and he believed
that if in the south there could be fair
and square vote on the protection issue
without any extraneous issues, the pro-
tectionists would overwhelmingly carry at
least four or five southern states. The
north had been made rich by protection; it
was now the opportunity Of the south to
become rich. If anybody was to be pro-
tected he would rather make an American
rich than Hungarian, Italian or Belgian.
Flower, of New York, inquired in refer
ence to the remark as to elections in the
south, whether Mr.. Imboden meant that
the color line had to be drawn and that the
gentleman had to vote against his senti-
ments. General Imboden replied 1--WE are
compelled to stand together there under
certain conditions, when the tariff sinks
protection l am Republican. On local
questions l am Democrat
Judge Bowling. of Virginia, also made an
argument in favor of protection to iron ore.
He thought this matter of protection of the
industries of Virginia had become one of
the most important features in the deter
mination of the race question. Farming did
not pay in Virginia and other labor must
be supplied to support the negro. Protec-
ton was source of strength to the people
of the south in endeavoring to make bet
ter citizen of the negro.
Several other coal operators argued
against reduction of the duty on coal

MRS. JEFFERSON DAVIS
Writes Letter to the Mayor of Richmond
About her Husbands Resting Place.

RICHMOND, Dec. 27.-Mayor Ellison, of
this city, this morning received letter
from Mrs. jefferson Davis in reply to the
request that the body of her husband be
buried here, dated Beauvoir House, De
cember q. In it she says: eff gratitude
for the manner in which the people of
Richmond sustained him during the war,
his affection for her citizens and the calm
fortitude of her men and women under
crushing defeat were to be the moving
cause only, l might lay him there I'M
questioned. But the state of his birth,
Kentucky; the state of his adoption, which
showered every honor upon him within her
gift, Mississippi; the state where the con-
federacy first unfurled her banner, Ala
bama; the state in which mis- parents spent
their early days and where his father was
born and in which my husband has re
ceived many honors, Georgia; the state in
which we found friends and home and
where our dead repose, Tennessee; and
last, but not least, the state which now
gives him a sepulchre amid the tears and
plaudits of her people, Louisiana, all these
have put forth claims so strong that can
not choose among them, and have decided
to wait perhaps years before making a
selection. To rest in the same soil with
your immortal heroes General Robert E.
Lee and Stonewall Jackson, is privilege
fully appreciated, and should be the last
to undervalue the honor, but when the final
decision is made l cannot be unmindful of
those who have done me the honor to claim
the custody of my dead, and beg you to
have patience with me for a season."

THE MINUET WALTZ.
The New Dance that Johann Straus is Arrang-
ing for the Viennese Dancers.

The New Dance that Johann Straus is Arrang.
ing for the Viennese Dancers.
Especial TO THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
VIENNA, Dec. 27-[By cable to the New
York Herald. Johann Strauss is about to
bring out revised form of the peculiarly
Viennese dance of some twenty sets which,
when reduced to six sets in three-four
time, will become a dance and rapidly
spread from the Austrian capital all over
the civilized world. The present composer
reduced the sets to four and introduced as
a further reform the six steps waltz which
has also made the round of every ball room
in the world.
Herr Strauss has now retraeed his
steps, since he has satisfied himself
that the present generation is either
not strong enough for or not inclined
to the rapid whirl of the true Viennese
dance, and that slower pace is required
to suit the pace of these degenerate times.
'Look around ball room,' says Strauss,
land you will find, no matter how delicious
the waltz music the orchestra may be
playing, that the majority of the ladies re-
main seated, while the gentlemen lounge
around the pillars and doors. All real pleas
ure in dancing is lost, and only the
rythmlcal conversation dance still holds
its ground. l intend to combine the con-
versation dance with the waltz, calling the
new form the minuet waltz. 1t will be
composed in three four time and consist of
three sets which all begin with an dnddn-
tinO grandsioso movement in the style of the
minuet or polonaise. 1t will then develop
into real waltz, with the present rapid
whirl. The ladies will be able to accept
lady partners for the conversation part,
while for the faster movements they can
take partners who are still dancers"
Strauss has already composed two min
uet waltzes which are to be introduced
during the approaching carnival at the
great charity ball given by the aristoreracy
resident in this capital

DAN AND SPOT.
The Baby Leopards, of Philadelphia, are Eaten
by Their Cannibalistic Mother.

The Baby LeOpards, of Philadelphia, are Eaten
by Their Cannibalistic Mother.
Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27.-Nearly three
hundred members of the Eight o'clock
club went to the geological gardens Christ
mas to see Dan and Spot, the baby leopards,
but to their surprise and grief, they learned
that the little pets were dead. All day the
children fingered around the cage watching
Mrs. Bob, the mother Of the pair, stride up
and down the enclosure. Scarcely any of the
children suspected that the cute little ami
mails had been eaten by their own mother,
yet that is the conclusion the keepers have
arrived at concerning the manner of their
death. Dan and Spot were kept in a large
box which was placed beneath their
mothers cage; Mrs. Bob reached them by
climbing through trap door in the floor.
One of the first instincts of the leopard
family IS to conceal its young Immediately
after birth, and when Dan and Spot were
born the keepers of the lion house built this
box for Mrs. Bob to hide her babies in. She
was so zealously protective of her children
that the keepers were not allowed to APP
proach their box, and Dan and Spot could
not be seen except when their mother
brought them out The receptions be-
came very popular and crowds of lit
tie folks waited in front of the cage
every day for the appearance of the twin
babies. Last Monday Mrs. Bob kept her
children in the nursery, and on Tuesday
they did not make their appearance in pub
lie. On the afternoon of that day Keeper
Shannon, of the lion house, noticed Mrs.
Bob acted in strange manner. She en-
tered the box continuously and crept out
again in few minutes with guilty ex
prassion in her cat-like eyes Then she sat
for long time on the high board which
runs across the back of the cage Then
she would re-enter the box and immedI-
ately came out again and hid herself in the
far corner of the enclosure. The keepers
suspicious were aroused and he decided to
make close examination of the box in
which he supposed the baby leopsrds were.
At the first glance the bed of straw did not
seem to be disturbed and it was apparently
in excellent condition. But Dan and Spot
were missing With the aid of a lantern,
he then made closer examination of the
bottom of the box, and found ia his sorrow
few bloody shreds of fur, which he
quickly recognized as belonging to the I'M
fortunate cubs. He sorrowfully made his
way to a group of expectant children
standing in front of the cage and told them
of the death of the little leopards.

Done Up In Short Order.

New YORK, Dec. 27.-Eugene Horn
hacker was done up last night in quick
order by George Dixon, of Boston, near
New London, Conn. Dixon forced the
lighting at the start, rushing Hornbacker
and lot only driving him all over the ring,
but gaining four clean knock downs before
the close of the round. Hornbacker was
hit so hard that he was very groggy at the
call of time and it was easy to be seen
that the fight was about over when
tue men were called up for
the second round. Hornbacker was
still stupid, showing plainly that he had
been severely punished. Eugene tried to
rally and force the fighting, but he was not
in it. Dixon was fresh, and he pounded
the plucky little German all over the ring
and knocked him out with a well-delivered
highlander on the side of his left cheek
after they had been fighting about one
minute. The whole fight, rest and all,
lasted only five minutes. About one hun
dred and fifty people witnessed the mill.
Dixon is to be matched to fight Mccarthy.

An Interesting Revolutionary Relic.

CANAJoHAIRE, N. Y, Dec. 27.-At Stone
Arabia, few days ago, a citizen found
begrimmed and badly battered metal box,
inches long, inches deep. The contents
consisted of a locket, bundle of parch-
ment letters and faded piece of blue rib
bon. The locket, of gold was of fine work
manship. On one side side is a monogram
of letters ''A,,HD," on:the other a.curiously
wrought hunting scene. The letters were
all written in 177S-9 by lady of evident
royalty residing in London to her betrothed
and couched in the most tender language.
The superscription OF the recipient is
Captain Lowe, of the British army, There
is no record of a Captain Lowe having
been killed at the battle of Stone Arabia,
but he must have been present in that aw-
full conflict and the box may have been lost
in the fight The gentleman owning the
metallic box will gladly surrender it to the
relatives of Captain Lowe,

Bartholomew, of Jefferson Medical college.
1t says, in part: Influenza comes suddenly
and goes quickly. The least robust, atany
age, and women seem to be the first vic
Tins. Large numbers are simultaneously
attacked, and this attracts general atten-
ton, and thus the impressionable are
seized, the onset being felt by any depress-
ing emotion like fear or illness. Wi th the
first access of nasal and fancicd irritation
comes a chilliness, which is followed by fe-
verishness with pronounced malaria, and in
general headache, weakness and soreness
of the members, especially of the largo
joints. With the progress of the case, as
some epidemics, there is considerable
general weakness, even a marked depres-
sion of the vital powers. When fatal
termination is to occur as rule, there is
an extension downward into the trachea and
bronchitis takes place. Relapses are COM
mon and frequently patients pass by easy
into chronic bronchitis, asthma,
etc. Sometimes the catarrhal process con-
tributes to chronic disease of the ear, nose
and throat and permanently damages those

OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec 27.-The two
troops of United States cavalry that has
been sent from Fort Reno by command of
General Merritt. commanding the depart
ment of the Missouri, arrived this morning.
Even with the presence of the troops it is
impossible for people to disguise their feel
ings of insecurity. Almost every house is
an arsenal and every male citizen carries
revolver. The election of next Monday is
anticipated with apprehension, although
the troops will doubtless prevent any
serious rioting. The Kickapoos, the
political opponents of the Semenoles held
meeting tonight to discuss their griev-
ances. No disorder occurred.
