Witness then related the circumstances
of his appointment with Jones, the intro
duction TO Daniel Jones, and the drawing
of the money TO take to Sacramento.
Witness and Louis Jones went to the
Western Union Telegraph Office to see if
there was telegram for Jones, and while
there the latter told him, for the first
time. that the place was to be got through
SENATOR Bruner-that he had got the
police bill through and had been given
six places on the force. They were to

Arriving here, witness and Jones were
met by a man at the depot, who asked
Jones, did he come?n The men had
some conversation, and then witness was
introduced to the man, whose name was
Belau. While on the way to the Capitol
Belau asked Jones il he had been talking
to the newspaper reporters in San Fran
cisco. Jones replied that he had not, and
wanted to know why he had asked.
Belau replied that Bruner had heard that
something of the kind had been done, and
was frightened, saying the Examiner. had
got onto the matter.
Witness then told how ne was taken to
the library and fixed matters with Belau.
The latter said the certificate must be
given to him, as Mr.. Bruner was pronli-
nent man, and if anything should come
out of it it could not be said that witness
had paid the money to Bruner. He was
introduced TO the latter, and they went into
one of the alcoves, where Mr.. Bruner
wrote the letter recommending witness
asking if it wouldn't be best to say that
the applicant was Republican. The let
ter was handed to witness, and the certifi-
cate passed to Belau. Mr.. Bruner took
some money from his pocket, and he and
Belau talked together privately for mo-
ment, making change. Belau cautioned

DAFoNsECA's RESIGNATION.
Senor Mendonca Thinks it Means
Cancellation in Brazil,

Senior Mendonca THINKS IL Means
Cancellation in Brazil.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 24.-Senor Mendoncs,
the Brazilian minister. to-day received a
cablegram, dated yesterday. from the
Brazilian minister of foreign affairs con-
firming the press dispatches announcing
the resignation of President da Fonseoa OF
Brazil, and the assumption Of office
by Vice President Plexotto. Minister
Mendonca hae heretofore been
of the opinion that the dissatisfaction
with President Fonsecas policy was only
local In its character and was confined TO
the province of Rio Grande do Sui, but
when the peaceful district of Rio Jaueiro
revolted, it showed. he said, that this dis
satisfaction was becoming national The
only course therefore left to the president
was TO resign, and In doing this he acted
very patriotically.
MEANS CANCELLATION.
The minis er received the news with
pleasure, for he thinks it means conciliation
of all the dissatisfied parties and COM
plete restoration of harmony throughs
out the country: 1t was especially
gratifying to him to know that
every thing done had been accomplished
without the shedding of blood. The revo-
luton in Rio Grande do Sui, the minister
thinks, will abate as soon as the people hear
of President da Fonseca's resignation. The
new president, Senor Mendonca believes
will convene the congress dissolved by the
late president.
INFLUENCED BY HIS ILLNESS.
LONDON, Nov. M.-The British minister
to Brazil telegrapbed to-day. that Presi-
dent Fonseca's readiness to resign was due
to the fact that he is critically ILL.,
A dispatch from Buenos Ayres says
"The news of the abdication Of Fonseca was
received in Rio Grande do Sui with general
satisfaction, and has put an end to the rev
olutionary movement In that state. The
Instructions placed in the Rio Grande have
been removed and the river has been re-
opened to commerce. The insurgent troops
are disbanding."
CONQUERED IN BY THE PROVINCES.
A Rio Janeiro dispatch says: Except
Para, which remains silent, all the provinces
concur in the dismissal of President Fon-
SEGA. The congress will probably ignore
the recent events. A new cabinet has been
formed as follows: Senior Alves, finance
Faria, husbandry; Pereira, Justice; Oil
veira, war; Mello, marine; Pallita, foreign
affairs"
