Boulanger and Fonseca.

PARIS, Dec. 26.-General Boulanger
has sent the following message to Gen
eral Da Fonseca, chief of the pro-
visional government of Brazil:
Accept my sincere congratulations for
the able and patriotic manner in which
you have carried out tho plans which have
resulted in the overthrow of despised
monarchy. Your generalship in the cause
of an oppressed people is made doubly
grand by the fact that not single life was
sacrificed. How different from that of
17i5, which made the United States the
grandest nation In the world. How diff
ferent from that of France in 1850.
The United States set the example which
revealed the possibility years ago of all
America becoming free from the yoke of
Imperialism. France followed in her foot
steps, and God grant that ere another cont
ury has rolled by all Europe will be free
have much faith In the future of France,
much as she may be misgoverned at pres
ent-a misfortune hope will never befal
Brazil. The time is not far distant when
outraged liberty will have hearing. 1t is
with you, as IL will be with me and my con-
ferees, to show to the world, as the great
United States has done, that republican
government founded on liberty, fraternity
and equality will expand until the last
vestigc of kingcraft is swept away from
the earth Long live the United States of
Brazil Long live America!
In reply to this remarkable greeting
General Boulanger received the follow
ing message from General Da Fonseca:
In the name of the citizens of the United
States of Brazil thank you for the cordial
greeting which You were inspired to send
me BE assured that every means worthy
of patriotism were used to bring about the
present glorious result. Yes, Brazil is
free, and all America is free. Nevermore
and speak advisedly-wili the tyranny
of kingcraft be experienced upon these
shores. The present result in Brazil has
been the dream of my boyhood. In under
taking the step that has resulted SO glori.
ously in our favor, l was fully aware of
the great responsibility it entailed. My
desire was to bring about bloodless and
honorable revolution. That desire has
been grat6ed, thanks be to God. Some of
my good friends in this and other parts of
the world have honorcd me with the title
of ''r.e Boulangcr of Brazil Let me say
l am proud of the title, md if Boulangcr is
means of the peaceful overthrow of des-
potism and the frmest establishment OF
liberty, equality, fraternity and prosper
ity, cry aloud, with ali my heart, "Long
live Boulanger"

ArreMpTEp.A ASSASSINATION.


A Bartender Tries to Slay tho Noted
Killer of jesse James.
KANSAS CRY, Dec. 26.--A bold at
tempt was made yesterday morning to
asssassinate Bob Ford, noted as tho
slayer of Jesse James. Ford, accom-
panied by a friend, entered Cannot's
gambling house in Kansas City, Kas..
just across the dividing state line, and
sat down at faro table. His entrance
caused some comment among the play
ers at his table, and the fact that tho
noted Bob Ford was in the house soon
circulated through the rooms. What
occurred then may be told in Ford's
own words. ''One man." said he, ''made
himself particularly obnoxious to mo.
He referred In an insulting manner to
the Jesse James affair, but /
took no notice OF him, pre-
ferring to escape a row if could.
He continued to abuse me all the even
ing, and continued to take no notice
of him. Early yesterday morning, after
l had been sitting at the table all night,
l felt cramped and uncomfortable and
leaned back in my chair to stretch. AS
did SO | threw my head back, and at
that instant my ab,lser drew q knife,
from his pocket held my head back by
the hair and was about to draw the
knife across my throat, when my friend
warded off the blow. The knife cut
through the collar and grazed my neck,
inflicting slight wound. was un-
armed or would have shot him on the
spot. As it was, he took to his heels
and escaped"
At the gambling house Ford's story
was confirmed by the faro dealer and
proprietor OF the house. The would be
assassin is known to the gamblers as
''Fat," bartender. 1t is not known
who he is or where he ia employed. 1t
was stated at first that he was friend
of the James boys, but that Is denied
now, although no other motive can be
assigned for the deed.

about the political upheaval reported

opposition among its members, of which
there were numbered many soldiers and
o good contingent from the navy, backed
up by several officers from both
branches OF the service, while numer-
GUS citizens also joined tho revolt in
favor of the monarchy. These banded
together and paraded the principal
streets, giving full aggressive show of
their sentiments and very serious fight

troops overcome and dispersed the mon
archists. The provisional authorities

crease in the number of funerals the
system of draping churches with enor-

clothing that Billings wore that
night was then put on one of

hole in the undershirt corresponded
exactly with the position of the wound
on Billings back, but the hole in the
white shirt was three or four inches to
one side of the position of the hole in
the undershirt. When this was shown
it decided the jurors that Billings had
inflicted the wound on himself. lie ad-
