DEAD BRAZIliANS.
Riot Over the Proclamation of the
New Renublic.

A special TO the New York World from
Maranhas, Brazil, says: This place is IN
"a repressed state OF excitement. There
was fighting between the imperialsts and
republicans, Immediately after the de-
thronement OF Dom Pedro, and on Nov. Is
the excitement grew SO great that the
militia fired on the people, 20 OF whom
were killed. The attempt 10 create re-
volt was undoubtedly the work of the i'm
perialists and the Portuguese. Maranham
is naturally inclined To royalism II is the
forth city of the empire and the capital OF
the rich and important province Of tEe
same name.
AT present the city is quiet, but there is
still much intriguing going on and serious
trouble is likely TO occur If the imperaiists
and the Portuguese persist in refusing TO
acknowledge the altered condition OF
affairs.
THE Daily Globe of Maranham il de-
Tending earnestly the cause of the republic.
Its editor has tired to speak at meetings,
but has been cried down. Most OF the rich
men are leaning toward conservatism and
are the hope OF the imperialists"
