Army and Navy Ofllcials Talking too
Freely to Suit Heads Of De
partments.
Some OF Them Told Plainly to Keep
Their Opinions to Them
selves.
Fonseca's Dictatorship Declared Jnsl
In Time to Prevent Re- Establish
ment of the Empire.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.--Thereis a We
strong opinion in government circias
that good many army officers are tar
ing altogether too much regarding ~
present embroglio with Chill. 1t is o.,
week or SO ago since Secretary Iffe
found it necessary to issue pily
order instructing good many hiT'
officers of the navy to keep their vieN1
and opinions to themselves on the
ground that the position they occupy to-
ward the government made it distinctly
undesirable that they should express
ideas regarding strained relations be-
tween the United States and any other
country. Now attention is being di-
rected TO the utterances of certain army
officers, which are regarded, to say the
least, as decidedly indiscrete. One OF
these, who is chief of an important de-
partment of the army and is a general
TO boot, said in an interview the other
day that any foreign warship
could sail up to New York or
Boston and lombard those cities and
that there would be practically nothing
~ phSVcHt tHcAls hHu tnhl 0fCA va PO~Ao
boats would prove inadequate to oppose
any such demonstration on the part OF
foreign power. These statements ap.
psared in the London papers the day
after they were made and may be ex.
pected TO make the rounds of the world
The declaration may be true, or it may
not be true, but at any rate there is .
decided opinion in diplomatic circles
that army officers have no right to tall
that way, that whatever opinions thet
have should be kept to themselves.

THE SUPREME COMMAND
Assumed Only I'm Time to Foil = Plot
Restore the Empire.

Assumed Only I'm Time to Foil . Plot to
Restore the Empire.
LONDON, Nov. GA dispatch from
Rio Janerio says that President Fonseca
assumed the supreme command barely
In time to prevent the fruition of con-
spiracy TO restore the empire. This con-
spiracy Is known to have strong Euro
pean support, and has been directed in
Brazil by adherents of the ex-emperial
family, who were leniently permitted to
return to or remain in this country.
For the present action they would prob
ably have attempted a coup d'etat with
in few days. AS it is the Brazilian
authorities are reused to the utmost vig-
ilance, and both the army and navy are
loyal to the republic. Several arrests
have been made, and all these to whom
the reason can be brought home will be
dealt with severely. 1t is reported that
Count Deu, son-in-law of Dom Pedro, is
at the bottom OF the present effort to
Undermine Republican Government
in Brazil. The count, whose extraor-
dtnary arrogance and assumption mao
much to do with making the overthrow
of Dom Pedro possible, has never been
content to rest under the deprivation Of
his wife's magnificent inheritence. he
is a thorough bourbon, and very
pompous, without ability to sustain his
claims to respect, and anxious to figure
in the courts ofroyalty. The count Ii
known to have been in communication
with Brazilian restorationists and has
been watched in behalf Of the Brazilian
government more closely than he sup
posed. 1t is not thought that Don
Pedro has any share in the conspiracy
or even knowledge of it. Fonseca,
prompt action has undoubtedly caused
some disappointment in certain infiuen
tial circles of England, where the hop,
of the restoration of the Brazilian mon
archy has never been entirely sur
rendered.

feeling here between the Americans and
Chilians, and feeling of extreme cor

Chilian authorities and the United

Eight People in Allegheny Taken yio-
lentIy Sick at the Same Time.
The last hope of Allegheny temperance
people since oil in the water has been dis
covered has been sadly shattered by the
poisoning of eight peop!e by drinking coffee
in which it was claimed there was impure
milk. The coffee was sold bv T. Pritzchke
a baker at 81 Chestnut street. On Monday
shortly after noon, Mr.. Pritzchke, his wife
and child, u c. Godfrey. Walter Carter,
W. H. Beeson and Mrs Hancock and
daughter, Harnerville, were taken violently
sick at about the same time. They all re-
ceived the aid of doctors. and, after taking
an emetic. which made them yomit, they re-
covered.
Dir Heron, who attended Mr.. PritzcEke
and family. claims that she poisoning was
caused bv the milk in the COFFEE. 'It is the
custom Of milk men" he stated. ito pou
the not milk in tin cans aand then cover
them. The heated milk acts on the tin and
whenever that is done extracts certain
amount Of poison. In this case. I suppos.
the can was new and for some reason gave
oUt more poison than is customary This is
an evil that should be corrected. Poisoned
milk is sold every day, but there is no.

DEMAND FOR DOWNTOWN PROPERTY.
The Christ Church Lot Will Probably Be
Sold in a Day Two.

Sold in a Day Two.
Since the sale of the Government property
on Penn avenue real estate agents say there
has been a general looking up in lower
Penn avenue property, though the figure at
whis III that piece was sold has had bearish
effect on prices. The Christ Church prop
ertr being on the market is the most sought
after and the agents having it in charge
have had three offers on II in the past two
days One of these was for so feet of the
ground, 15o feet deep, or quarter section
of the whole plot, at a considerably higher
figure per foot than is asked for the whole.
The offer was refused because the trustees
will not allow the 100-feet front of the
church property to be sold except in one
piece The gentleman who made this offer
is considering the purchase of the whole
and will probably make an offer in a day or
two.
In the meantime the parties who have
been figuring on the site as a suitable one
for a big apartment or business block are
growing more business-like every day and
may close deal on the whole plot most
any day. Boggs & Buhl are not after the
property as reported. 1t was offered to
them before it was publicly placed on the
market, but at that time they declined to
consider any proposition, saying they had
all they desired TO attend to in Allegheny.
1t was learned yesterday there is demand
for property on Seventh avenue above
Smithfeld street. 1t is said there have been
several offers made to the Board of Trustees
for the First L. P. Church property, but
they are holding ont for larger figure.
The trustees are managing the transaction
and have decided not to place it in the
hands of agents

WARMCASTLE HAS HOPES.

A Telegram From Dick Quay Leads Him
to Believe There Is Still q Chance-The
Collector Thinks There Is Too Much of
Scramble for His Shoes.
Collector Warmcastle yesterday received
from Dick Quay, who is now in Washing
ton, telegram stating that Senator Quay
had called upon President Harrison yester-
day in regard to the Collectors case and
had secured satisfactory interview. The
telegram stated that the case looked
brighter and indicated that the Pres
ident may yet change his mind
in regard to removing Mr.. Warmcastle.
The information was particularly gratify-
ing to the Collector. He seemed to be re-
Eeved yesterday, and hopeful that his trou-
BILE will not extend to removal.
81 have collected S150,000 since the
charges were made against me" the Col
lector said, 'and the fact that they are
leaving me in charge of the Office is to me
satisfactory evidence that they have no fear
of my running away
The efforts being made by those anxious to
succeed him are distressing the Collector
considerably. He thinks they are showing
him little concern, and he believes they
should wait for the corpse before proceeding
to the grave. George w. Miller, who has
been indorsed for the place by Quay, Magee,
the tariff club and many politicians, is con-
fident that if change is made he will be
appointed. He says he did not announce
his candidacy until he was assured by
political leaders and by the Collector HIM
self that removal was certain.
Ex-Collector Graham, of Allegheny, says
he is in the lead for the appointment. He
called on B. Fl. Jones yesterday and
solicited his support for the place. Mr..
Jones refused to take any part in the con-
test, however. Congressman Stone, who is
backing Graham for the place, has written
to friends in Pittsburg that Graham stands
good show of getting the place.
