The New Republic win Copy After the
United States,
Rio JANEIRo, April Sth.-The Provis-
ional Government having decided that all
the great popular measures SO long de-
manded by the people, such as the aboli-
ton of slavery (turced from the Imperial
Government in 1889, the separation of the
Church from the State, the freedom of the
press, liberty of worship, secularization of
public cemeteries, naturalization of foreign
ers, etc, is now trying to avoid the danger
and inconvenience that attended the adop-
ton of the American Constitution.
The men now at the head of affairs de-
sire 10 begin where the United States fin
ished at, so as to take advantage of Ameri-
can experience. For this reason they have
nominated a number of well-known spe-
cialists TO frame Constitution, which is TO
be presented TO Constitutional Assembly.
The work OF registering voters (all men
of q years OF age nat know how to read
and write) is being pushed rapidly.
The trainers hope to present Consiitu-
ton as much like the American Constitu-
ton as is consistent with the character of
the Brazilian people. 1t will then be SUBJ
mitted to direct vote of the people. 1t is
already partially compiled
1t declares the fatherlapd one and indi-
visible. l0e IepuDilC lS composed OF
States, Federal Districts, Provinces and
Territories. Its Government is representa-
tive federal and republican
Each State shall be governed by its own
laws and the Federal Government shall in
terfere only for the purpose of guarantee
ing republican form of government, the
sanction of sentences of Federal Courts
and in case of rebellion the Provinces are
to be regularly organized political bodies
that require pecuniary assistance from the
Federal Government
The Territories are the unorganized or
uninhabited parts of the republic. The
Federal Districts will consist of any mu-
nicipality that may be chosen for the Fed
eral Capital.
The most important recent event was
the resignation in a boGy of the Rio Ja-
metro Municipal Intendency, in conse-
quence of a decree subjecting certain Of
their acts to the approval of the Govern
ment. The new Intendency, headed by
DR.. Amarali, has made an excellent i'm
preston by suspending the code of mu-
niciDal laws framed by the old Board, and
which has given great dissatisfaction.
Secretary of State Blaine has sent cir
cular to all the Ministers and Consuls, pos
sibly in South America, certainly in Brazil,
requesting information in regard to the
means of extending American trade with
their localities. If American trade is to
make headway in Brazil great improve
ment in the mail service is demanded, as it
is now very bad.

RUSSIA AND CHINA.
Rivalry That Will No Doubt Cause Seri-
Gus Complications.

LONDON, April Sth.-A Shanghai CORE
spondent says The imperial fiat has gone
forth blocking the prospects of Chang Chip
Tung's railway from the sacred city of Han
kow, the great emporium on the Yangtze,
famous alike for its velvets and its teas.
There has, in fact, been regular about
face in the capital upon the railway ques-
ton. but despite the signal failure of the
ex-Viceroy of the Kwsng provinces, within
the current year we will see serious COM
mencement made with railways in China.
am convinced that the object of all the
recent Russian coqueting with Corea is in
the hope of obtaining port on the Pacific
which would be free from ice all the year
round. 1t is necessary for the working of
the railway and for the efficiency of her
large fleet in those waters.
With the Russian railway along her
northern border, there is nothing for China
but TO keep pace with her dreaded northern
neighbor. There is the greatest activity all
along the border.
