PARIS, Nov. % by cable to the Mail and
Express. -Monseigneur Lacerdo, an emin--
ent French prelate who is well acquainted
with Brazil, thinks that the United States
had much to do with the revolution and
dismissal of Dom Pedro. This remarkably
astute gentleman declares that he would
not be surprised to learn that the govern
ment at Washington had even gone so far
as to grant a subvention to the press Of
Rio de Janeiro in order to prepare for the
downfall of the imperial dynastry. And
he further expressed his suspicion that
Brazil will henceforth be commercially in
the grasp of the North Americans. Natur-
ally denials of this extraordinary view Of
the situation have fallen thick upon the
head of this clear sighted ecclesiastic, for
strange as it may seem, serious contradic-
ton of his statements is not regarded here
as absurd, despite all the denials. How
ever, it is still asserted that the United
States government is at the bottom of the
revolution.

A BRILLIANT SCENE.
The Close of the Parnell Commission Recalls
the Trial of Hastings.
Especial to THE HERALD-Examlner Dispatcl

Especial to THE HERALD-Examlner Dispatch
LONDON, Nov. Cd by cable to the New
York Herald The Parnell commission
closed its sessions yesterday. Henry
James sat down at 3 20 o'clock, after a
striking peroration, in which he held his
audience while it was being delivered and
evoked an outburst of applause at its close.
The applause seemed altogether out of
place, for the thin old usher yelled Isl
lence," as he had more than once yelled it
before in the 12S days during which the
inquiry has been going on.
For the first time since the explosion of
the forged letters was there anything like
interest manifested in the proceedings. If
Sir Henry James has had poor audiences
during the matter of-fact setting forth Of
the dry details of his case for the Times, he
must have felt more than compensated by
the presence of so large, attentive and dis
tinguished an audience lis that which filled
the court Every one who has been in any
way associated WITH the case seemed TO
have returned to witness the drop of the
curtain in the final act i'll the Irish drama.
Prominent politicians, too, were deter
mined to have one glimpse ut least of the
closing scene.
Next to Captain O'Shca in the early por-
ton of the day sat Lord Randolph
Churchill. Near him sat Michael Davitt.
an intetested listener Lord Stra,ncdeL
and Lord Campbell sat beside the Judges.
Miss James occupied position below
them, while the jury box was taken up by
bevy of ladies who by mods and winks
and other gentle indications showed their
approval or disapproval of the Unionist
lawyers remarks.
Later in the day as the hour for Sir
Henrys per Iration. drew near, the stuffy
little COZ TT room became so crowded that
to move from one portion to another was
impossible. Barristers in wig and gown
arrived in remarkable force. AsQuits was
there, so was Arthur Russell and so Was
Arthur O'Connell. Sir Robert Peel ar
rived before the speech closed. There
will be some anxiety about the report. a
debate or two in the house of commons and
the Parnell commission will take its place
among the long, long list of events which
set every one talking today and are re-
marked as ancient history tomorrow.

Out Their Agreement.
FROM SECRETARY BLAINE

signs-A Fire In the Anaconda Mine
Those Cuban Riots.

BERLIN, Nov. % Copyright, 1889, by
the New York Associated Press. The
terms of the truce between Austria and
Russia which Bismarck forced upon Count
kalnoky are already partly fulfilled on the
Russian side The Car has stopped the
Pan-Slavist committee from sending agents
into Bulgaria and peremptorily warned
them not to foster in the meantime within
Bulgaria any agitation. The Austrian side
has brought about rupture of the pro
posed marriage of Prince Ferdinand to
Princess d'Alencon. Count Kalnsky has in
structed the Austrian consul in Sofia to
modify his partisanship in behalf of Prince
Ferdinand. Finally, Emperor Francis
Joseph has consented to grant to Trentino
autonomous local administration. Russia,
behind peaceful diplomatic mask, does
not cease her massing of troops upon her
frontiers, the work of railway extension
being accelerated in order to organize u
system that may be completed by May.
Public opinion tends to doubt the per-
manence of the Brazilian republic. The
North German Gazette says: 1.-The present
wielders of power must be warned to avoid
measures that must force European states
to interfere to protect their countrymen.
Cable dispatches to Hamburg firms as
sert that the new ministry is divided by
fierce personal quarreis; that General
Fronseca's dictatorial manners irritate his
colleagues, and that mis- resignation is de-
sired A prediction which finds credence
is that the republic will break into three
states-equatorial, central and southern,
the latter having a large German popula-
ton, claiming the protection of the father
land.
Emperor William has authorized the es-
tablishment of a lottery, to be managed by

from county clerks. 1t is stated further
that the new constitution in force since
October expressly provides that all returns
shall be canvassed by the same board ere
ated by the enabling act to canvass the re-
turns on the constitution. The Republi
cans stand unanimously on the proposition
that only such as are found to be members
by the state canvassers are entitled to
seats, and all power to determine further
rights reside wholly in the separate houses,
and at no time in the governor. Without
notice the governor ordered the members
to meet in certain places that until the last
moment before the hour appointed were
locked and guarded with no prospect but
that such places would continue under the
governors personal control, and rather
than submit to such supervision and re-
strictions the Republicans, with the officer
designated by law to call the house to
order, proceeded to organize elsewhere.

tor is endeavor1ng to make arrangements
to leave during the Christmas holidays
with General Crook and Captain Pratt for
the purpose OF making personal visit and
inspection of Mount Vernon barracks,
Alabama, here Geronimo and his band of
Apache Indians are imprisoned. An effort
was mace earlier in the year to secure the
removal of these Indians to a tract of land
in North Carolina, but Governor Fowle
objected and Secretary Proctor declined to
order the removal, especially as evidence
had been given him from prominent
medical authorities that it would be danger
Gus to send the Indians to more northern
point in view of the fact that they are eX
ceedingly susceptible to pulmonary disease.
Since then there ha' been other ideas on
the sub ect av ced from other me iical
authorities and the seer, tary has been in.

received letter yesterday from Captain
Pratt which argued strongly against the
removal of the Indians to higher latitude

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch
LONDON, Nov. 23.-[By cable to the Mail
and Express. German financiers appear
to have much more confidence than the
English have in the provisional govern
ment of Brazil and in the future of the
newly announced republic. They are the
chief buyers of Brazilians on the London
stock exchange and seem rather anxious to
get hold of all this kind of stock that they
can find German houses are also eager to
take up Brazilian contracts which were in
process of negotiation by English firms
when the revolution occurred and which
the latter are now hesitating to complete.
1t is quite evident on all hands that the
Germans have perfect faith in the COM
mercial future of Brazil whatever happens.

and Naval Pensions of III United States -
The general, after reviewing the history
of pensions, advised the appointment of

strengthen the weak knees of our repre-
sentatives in Congress and to stop the an

SAN Francisco, Nov. 23.-Advices by the
steamer Zealandia from Samoa, dated No
vember 5, say that everything is quiet
there, the reports of fighting there last
month being incorrect. Notwithstanding
the provisional election last month, which
resulted in the choice of Mataafa as King
and Malietoa as vice king, the followers of
Tamasese held an election the first week in
November, resulting in the choice of Nal
ietoa as king and Tennessee as vice king
The selection of Mataafa last month was
but a temporary arrangement and both the

ute it greatly to the decaying of substances

General wallace,s idea of Military Education

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The Forthcoming
report of the board of directors to the
West Point military academy will contain
paper read by General Lew Wallace,
president of the board, in which he sug-
gests that the system of military educa-
ton in vogue at West Point be extended to
the whole army by converting every fixed
post in the country into military acad-
envy with the company officer as instructor.
He recommends the selection of three to
five hundred enlisted men, according to
standing at the end of their fourth year,
to be transferred to West Point for final in
struction through the fifth year His idea
| is that commissions should be grated to
those men according to their standing at
the completion of their final year at West
Point, and that all other modes of original
appointment to the army be abolished. All
enlisted men chosen for the final course at
the academy should be discharged at the
end of the fourth year. The general thus
sums up the results of the system he pro-
poses: ''Giving three officers to each com
pany of one hundred men, calculation
upon the hypothesis of the annual dis
charge of 3, 900 soldiers can be easily made
of the supply of commissioned officers
Punishable by the new system. In mar
velOusly short period there would be Of
ficers ready made for 100000 men,.
