INCIrED BY ENVIoUs ENGLISH AGENTS.
Senor de Paulo Coelho, the editor of the
United States OF Brazil and constant cOrre-
spondent Of the most important officials at
Rlo, had the following to say this afternoon
relative TO the trouble in that South Ameri-
can republic: There is no revolution in
Brazil, nor will there be one. The existing
troubles may be traced to the English and
their great chagrin at the treaty Of reciproc-
ity recently made with this country. Ever
since President da Fonseca signed the treaty
the English agents have been howling into
the ears of the younger lCOngressmen that
great injustice WAS done Brazil, and that
vast sums of money have been thereby lost.
Thus impelled the younger Congressm-n
have carried on the fight. When this be-
came apparent to Da Fonseca. lie said to
these Congressman, Go! and to prevent
the sending of unfounded and lying reports
he placed a censorship ON the cable, etc.
Soon the smoke will clear away and you will
find the outcome to be one of peace and
progress. Her markets are opened to Amer
lea, and England is, as ever, enyious but, dis
Greet.

crisis arose from Congress accusing Presi-
dent Da Fonseca with having uuwarrant-
ably assumed sovereign power. Freedom of
the press is suspended. The embargo has

| CENSORSHIP OVER THE CABLE.
| LONDON, Nov. 5.-Very little news is OBJ
| tainable here in regard to the revolution in
| Brazil, as only traffic cable messages are al.
| lowed by the Brazilian authorities to be
transmitted TO Europe from Brazil, and even
| these messages are carefully studied by
| officials so as to make sure they are moi
| cipher messages. The latest cable news re-
| ceived in this city before the censorship was
| established over the telegraph Offices in
| the capital, was full of soldiers, Quartered
in barracks. in public buildings, camped in
| the public squares and billeted upon The
| hotels and other such places. 1t is said
| there has been fighting in the streets of RiC
| Janeiro. but the report cannot be verified
| The continued i'll health of President Da
| Fonseca and political intrigues as to the
| choice Of his successor are said 10 be at the
| bottom OF the uprising. 1t is also asserted
| that Da Fonseca is suffering severely from
| cancer. Little or no news as 70 the-rea

tanned under the present conditions.
