BRAZIL'S DISCONTENT.
The Revolving Province Able to Resist the
Dictator.

LONDON, Nov. 20.-The Exchange TCle-
graph Company has further advices from
RiO de JaneirO this afternoon. According
to these the condition of affairs throughout
Brazil is rapidly growing more critical.
Everywhere discomfort and dissatisfaction
with the present regime are becoming mere
pronounced. Instead of tranquility and
acquiescence in Da Fonseca's assumption OF
dictatOrial power there is vigorous oppdsi-
tion and increasing agitation In general
terms the political condition of the country
is described as closely bordering on anar-
chy.
In spite OF the efforts Of the Government
to reduce Rio Grande do Sui to obedience by
force OF arms, or to win its allegiance by
concessions, 1t is now generally admitted at
Rio de Janeiro that that State will adhere
to its attitude Of opposition 10 the Dictator.
More than this, every body whose opinion is
entitled tn weight believes the State will be
strong enough TO maintain its Independence.
as reports from there show the provisional
Junta is well supplied with funds, and Is
daily increasing the effective strength OF its
army.
DA FoNsEcA's DANGER.
The Exchange Telegraph Company dis
patch further declares that Fonseca's death
is probable at any moment. Though y is
known that Fonseca is ill this statement is
ural causes. 1t Is taken to mean there is
extreme danger of his assassination or the
sudden and powerful uprising of an in
censed opposition, who will overthrow the
present regime and make away with its
head.
Another dispatch received here this after
noon from Brazil says that Fonseca's prin-
elpal allment is extreme nervous prostra-
tioD.

Brazil continues to be very meager. The
Provincial Junta in authority in the State Of
Rio Grande do Sui is taking active meas
ures 10 strengthen its position and to main
tain the opposition to Da Fonseca's dictator
ship. Baron Lucerna, President Of the
Fonseca Cabinet, has sent dispatch to'the
Junta Offering on the part of the Dictator
to recognize any local government that the
people of Rio Grande do Sui may prefer, on
the sole condition that peace and tram
quillity be first restored. To this the Juuta
replied the forces would only dsarm when
Da Fonseca shall have resigned and the
National Congress shall have again as
sembled.
Advices received here from Santos declare
that port infected with yellow fever. All
other Brazilian ports are also suspected of
being infected with the disease.

ceived from the disturbed Brazilian State of
