AN UNQUIET COUNTRY.

Several South American Revolutions. |
LONDON, Nov. ia private cipher
cable dispatch from Rio de Janeiro
states that a revolution has broken
out there. Other dispatches from
Rio de Janeiro concerning the out
break assert that the movement is in |
favor of republican form of gov
eminent, which has recently been |
strongly fomented and is the sole
cause of the rising. Up to the pres
ent hour there is little information
of a tangible character. The an
nouncement is made in the cipher
cable already at hand that the Bra
lillian Ministers have rendered their
resignation and that the situation is
controlled by the army.
New YORK, Nov. 15.-Dispatches
received here from Rio by Hard &
Rand, Arbuckle Brothers, j. j. Do
Gohue & Sons, leading coffee deal
ers, this afternoon, state that revo
luton had broken out and the Bra
lillian army was in control; the Min
istry had resigned, and the Minister
of Marine was shot in an attempt to
establish a republic. All received
this news at 4 o'clock, just after the
Coffee Exchange had closed, and it
| caused much excitement and uneasl-
ness. It is reported that if the news
is true IS per cent. of the coffee sup
| ply will be cut off from this country.
The new coffee crop Of Brazil is
about to be harvested. The Secre-
tary of the Navy, according to the
Almanach de Gotha for 1889, was
Senator Luiz Antonio Vierra da
Silvas.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Secretary
Blaine late this afternoon received a
cablegram from Consul-General
Dockery at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,
announcing that revolution had oc-
Cured there, that the Brazilian
Minister of Marine had been killed,
and that the army was now IN con
troll. The Secretary also received
private advices via New York to the
same effect, and that the revolution
was for the purpose Of forming a
republic and that it would probably
be successful. A provisional gov
eminent has been established, In
Guiding Seniors Da Fonseca and
Benjamin Constant.
The Brazilian Minister said that
since he left Brazil in July last he
had heard considerable about the
great strength of the Republican
party in Brazil, but that in his opin-
ion its strength was greatly overrated
in this country. At the last election,
which was perfectly free and open.
only a few Republicans were re-
turned. While it was possible that
great changes had taken place in the
last three or four months, he did not
think it at all probable that the stu
alton had taken the turn indicated
by the cablegram. There might
have been some ministerial trouble
which had given rise to the reports
New YORK, Nov. IA dispatch

Cured in Venezuela. President
Guzman Blanco was overthrown
The revolution occurred October
28th. There was serious rioting
