Hundred Monarchists Were Killed.
New YORK, Jan. 1.-THE correspond
ent of C. R. Flint writes from Bio Ja-
neiro under date of December %, 1850:
THE outlook here is not reassuring.
Last evening parts Of two regiments Of
cavalry, infantry and artillery mutinied.
They tore down the Republican flag and
hoisted the imperial flag, it requiring
all the other regiments and the
artillery to subdue them. They fought
at the Sac Christovas artillery head
quarters until after 10 o'clock last night,
and 100 Of the rebels were killed and
wounded before the rest sur
rendered. To-day twenty-one of the
ringleaders were shot. None Of
the commissioned officers were in
the mutiny, but all the nou-commis-
stoned officers were. The cause of the
mutiny was dissatisfaction with tho
mems pay. The police we're paid two
milreis day and the soldiers claim
that they were promised the same,
when it was only raised to not
quite that amount. 1t is said . num-

ROASTED ALIVE.

A Railway Collision Near Cincinnati In
Which the Debris Takes Fire from an
Overturned Car-Stove, and Five Pass
sengers Arc Burned to Death-Several
Seriously Wounded, 3
CINCINNATI. Jan. 1S.-A disastrous
railroad wreck occurred at few min,
utes past o'clock Thursday night
within the limits of the city. The
local accommodation on the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton railroad left Winton
place at o'clock for this city. 1t was
behind time about forty minutes.
After leaving Winton place the
railroad cuts through Spring Grove Gems
etery. The track here is on a sharp
curve, and the end of the accommoda-
ton train had not yet disappeared
around the curve when the express was
heard approaching, and in minute more.
it rushed past at high rate of speed.
A mile further on, and directly over
the tunnel that burrows beneath the
tracks connecting the two parts Of the:
cemetery, it crashed into the rear end
of the local train. With such tremen-
dous power did the engine strike the
rear car that it plowed right under IL
for half cars length, elevating the rear
portion of the car right into the engine.
Engineer Coadly reversed his lever and
jumped, but the speed of the train was
so great that it ran fully quarter of a
mile before stopping. The stoves and
lamps in the local train were smashed
by the force of the collision and set fire
to the coaches. In less than five min
utes they were wrapped in flames. There
were about fifty passengers on board, and
nearly all got out safely. Five per.
sons, however, were caught and pinned
among the breaking timber and were
slowly roasted to death. The passen-
gers on the express and residents of the
vicinity, together with the Cincinnati
fire and police departments, who were
quickly on the scene, could do nothing
for them. In quarter of an hour it
was all over. The killed are:
John Wilson, of Winton place, a thirty-sec.
ond degree Mason and superintendent OF the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of this
city; Louis E. Kelar, Of Winton place, hard.
ware merchant Of this city; Conductor F. w.
Witherbee, of Toledo, who was in charge of the
local train; James Staley, ,baggagemaster, OF
Dayton; William Plannetts. Of Carthage, O.,
plumber.
The latter two died after removal to
the city hospital. The legs and arms OF
both were partly burned off. All were
bound by the broken timbers, and met
slow and agonizing death by fire.
Their bodies were all recovered but
were hardly recognizable. Engineer
Coadly and Fireman Barker, of the col
liding engine, were both badly hurt by
jumping.

THE actual amount of malt liquors con-
sumed in 1888 was 767, 5S7, ,O56 gallons
This includes not quite 5000, 900 gallons
of imported beer and ale. The manu-
facturers' price to the retailer is rather
above than below 20 cents per gallon.
At 90 cents the cost to the dealers would
be $l53, 517,4 All. The retailers get an
average of 60 cents per gallon, which
makes the cost to the consumers $780,
522, 233, which the American people
spend annually for malt liquor, princi-
pally beer. The cost of wine to the con-
sumner is s7a,67o, 13e, and distilled spirits

TWENTY years ago diamonds were at
three times their present value. The
discovery Of the South African mines
brought down the price, but amalgams-
tion in the last twelve months has put
1t up above 100 per cent The rough es-
innate is that during the last few years
the output of diamonds has been 4,00O,-
600 carats per annum, and that these,
cut into 1,6OO, 900 carats, have sold for
s4,00O,000. 1t costs 10 shillings per car
at to cut diamonds. The South African
mines being now amalgamated, the out
put is reduced to ne-half, i. e., 2,000,-
600 hrats, but the merchants estimate
that this will still produce ga, OOO, ,00o.
