Unearthing Opium Frauds.

New YORK, Nov. 11.-Th custom house
officials here have unearthed what probably
win prove to be one of the most gigantic
schemes for smuggling opium into this
country ever known. AT present but little
can be learned, all the officials refusing to
talk 1t is said one arrest has already been
made and that six others are to follow AT
the office of the United States commissioner
the admission was made that large
amount Of opium had been seized, but that
was all that could be learned
The sudden discovery of a wholesale sys-
tenn Of opium smuggling across the Cana
dian border has startled the custom house
officials. In the custom house there is now
the largest quantity of opium ever seized,
and there is still more to follow. It is be-
lieved the traffic has been started by some
of the opium growers of India. It is not
thought 1t comes from China. In addition
to having agents in Canada, about three
or four months ago two or three we'll edu-
Gated natives from Bombay arrived in this
country by way of Europe. They ostensi-
bly, came on some other business, but the
real object of their visit is believed to have
been the completion of an elaborate ar
rangemen for increasing the opium traffic
! in this country. At first as the smuggling
proved to be SO successful 1t was deter
mined to operate on q larger scale. The
ramificationS of the scheme are intricate
| and ingenious, but with the Information
already in the hands of the treasury Of
| f1cials an effsctual stop will be put tt
opium smuggling. 1t is understood some
4 arrests will be- made soon.

The Farmers Congress.

SEDALIA, Mo-, Nov. 1.-THE National
Farmers congress reassembled at Ii o. clock
this morning. a number of resolutions
were introduced and referred. Congress
man Heard, of Missouri, delivered an ad-
dress on Railway Transportation" This
was subject, he declared, of supreme i'm
portance to the farmer. One solution of
this vexed question, he said, was found in
state railway commissions. Another method
OF controlling railroad corporations in the
interest of the people was through a ma
tional railroad commission. Some pro-
fessed to believe railroads should be placed
under government management. Govern
ment railroading, Heard believed, would
be a gigantic failure. In the first place
the government would have to
buy the railroads, and that would
cost ten billion dollars. That would be
m impossihility practically, because there
is in circulation only fifteen hundred mil
lion dollars. The purchase of the railroad,
would necessltate mourning debt of gil
gantic proportions and he did not believe
the farmers or anyone else wanted to go
down into their pockets and pay any more
debt than they are now paying. Another
great objection to government railway con-
troll was the increase of federal Office hold
ers which it would ueoessitate.

Inspector Hubbard the Hero Of the Affair
Harrington Makes d Reply to
0'Brien's Statement.

CHICAGO, Nov 1.-The stars and stripes
waved aloft tonight after scene of ex-
element unequalled since the Haymarket
riot. Over thousand Anarchists and their
sympathisers gathered at West Twelfth
street Turner hall TO- night to commemor-
ate the anniversary of the execution Of
Spies and Parsons. The speeches
were extremely strong, and red en-
blems covered everything. The cli-
max came during the incendiary tier
ances of Henry Welssmau, editor Of .
New York German trades paper. In
spector of Police Hubbard, accompanied
by Lieutenant Gibbons and squad of Of
ticers, in citizen clothes, approached the
stage. Hubbard ordered the American
nag placed among the flaming red banners
which were conspicuous everywhere. In
stantly there was a profound sensation in
the motley audience and the police were
missed from all parts Of the hall. Mrs.
Lucy Parsons shrieked out "Hang the
murderers of my husband.n In a second
pandemon1um reigned, hundreds OF
excited men pushing forward, ours
Ing the officers and seemingly ONLY
wanted word from the leaders
to precipltate bloody fight. Neverthe-
less, Inspector Hubbard unflinchingly or-
dered the suspension of the meeting until
his commands were obeyed. Through the
din the half hundred police could be seen
with their hands on clubs and revoIyers
preparing for the fight which seemed in
evltaole. II was fully ten minutes before
order was restored. The American flag
meanwhile had been reluctantly hoisted to
place over the stage This proceeding
was only accomplished when the officers
were found ready for action and the cooler
heads among the audience had time to exer.
else some influence The meeting had besn
taken completely byssurprise, else more
tragic result might have followed.
The leaders of the meeting assert Ii was
only to show reverence for the men who
persisted at the hands of the law. When
the proceedings opened the stage was
fairly buried in red bunting, while promi-
nently In front were placed busts Of Spies
and Parsons with characteristic inscrip-
tione. The ''Marsellaise'i was the favor

que, in which he dwelt on the ''peaceable''
nature of the Haynarket meeting, the
prostitution Of the courts, poverty stricken
condition of the masses, ETC., when the
police made their entrance and the conse-
quent uproar ensued. This incident took
the life out of the meeting and the remain
ing speeches were very brief. 1t was an
nOunced, however, that another meeting
would be held Thursday night at the old
time headquarters on Lake street.

A Sensational Quarrel.

BELLEVUE, Idaho, Nov. 11.-TSpecial tele-
gram TO The HERALD. Bellevue had a
sensational quarrel and pummeling scrape
this afternoon about o'clock. James Too
hill has owed ]. c. Cunningham, the Broad
ford merchant, for some time, and while
Cunningham was sitting in the Bellevue
saloon Toohill slapped him a rap along
side the head that made the
Broadford merchant think he had
full hand, but Cunningham
got up on his feet and wiped up the floor
with Toohil in true John L. style The
contestants then got out on the sidewalk
and something went of. 1t was not known
exactly how but it is thought Cum
ningham's brother, who was close
by, dropped something. No enc was
''hit'' and the bullet wandered
through the front window of the Interna-
tional hotel, through the business Office
and embedded itself in the dining room
wall The arrests will not be made till to-
morrow.
1t is said here that the Short Line con-
ductors are being called in, such old and
popular men as Goss, Ball, Burbank,
Francis having been summoned to head
quarters.

The Brazilian Minister interviewed.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE Brazilian
minister to-day received an unofficial dis
patch to the effect it was reported in Rio
that the state of Rio Grande do Sui had
seeded In the absence of any contra
dictory statement from his government,
the minister believes the province has re-
VOTED. He said tonight he did not think
there was any chance of the revolt extend
ing to other states; that the govern
ment was as stable as ours, and there
need be no fear of general revolution.
The disaffection in Rio Grande do Sui, he
said, was probably due to members of the
dissolved congress representing that part
of the country who endeavored TO cause
dissension because of the dissolution of
congress. The minister said the financial
condition of the republic was firm and there
is really nothing to cause revolution.

Indignation in Washington.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-Much indigna-
ton is expressed at the state and navy de-
partments at the conduct of certain En-
glish newspapers in ascribing foolish SEN
timents and remarks to Minister Egan and
Captain Schley in connection with the
pending questions between the CHILEAN and
United States governments. No one here
believes what the papers assert and the
opinion is held in the departments that the
English papers in question are engaged in
an effort to foment the growth of feeling
of animosity by the Chilians against the
people Of the United States in the case of
Brazil.
No word has been received from Minis
ter Conger tending co confirm the story of
the revolt of three of the principal Bra
lillian provinces, which is also reported
from English sources. There is DISPOSE
ton here also to attribute to English pa
pers desire to embarrass the Brazilian
authorities who were responsible for the
negotiation of the reciprocity treaty with
the United States, inasmuch as this ar
rangement has already sensibly extended
the commerce between Brazil and the
United States.

Harrington Replies to Parne,,.

LONDON, Nov. u.-Harriugton has writ
ten letter charging O'Brien with con-
cealing the most important part of the
Parnell correspondence at Boulogne. He
cites letter which Parnen wrote O'Brien
suggesting that Mccarthy obtain salts
factory assurances from the Gladstonians
that they would continue to act in good
faith with the home rulers, then Parnell
would constitute O'Brien chairman,
he himself retiring in the lat
ter's favor. O'Brien proposed that
his election to the chairmanshi
be effected without public conditions of any
kind. He would seek an interview with
Gladstone after his election and if the lat
ter's assurances were unsatisfactory he
would resign the craftsmanship in favor of
Parnell and declare for Parnell as leader.
O'Brien cabled Dillon in New York asking
him to support his choice. Dillon tele-
graphed back: "Parnell is humbugging
you" Harrington published a long series
of communications indicating Parnell
trusted O'Brien and says this confidence
was misplaced.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE Herdld's
Santiago correspondent has had an i'm
portant interview with Senior Malta, Chill
ian minister Of foreign affairs, whose reply
to the demand of the United States for
satisfaction on account of the Baltimore
outrage mas created so much discussion.
In the course of the conversation, the COR
respondent was given to understand that
the Cnilian minister was of the opinion
that the United States representatives
here seemed to think that they could in
every way dictate to Chill as to what she
should and should not do under various
conditions. This stand on the part of the
United States repre= entatiyes, he added,
was untenable. Senior Malta impressed
me strongly with the conviction that the
Gillian authorities will, upon the compile
ton OF the judicial inquiry into the attack
upon the Balumore's Seamen, act speedily
and fairly in arriving at d conclusion. 1t
! Is, however, evident that the forcible pro
/ tests OF the United States in regard to the
whole affair are not regarded in a pleasing
/ light.
Minister Egan yesterday said that the
political refugees In the United State lega-
! ton have had all their correspondence ex-
amined by him; all letters sent or received
by refugees have passed through his hands
for perusal. The same rule, he said,
was observed by him when he was
sheltering junta refugees from the wrath
! OF Balmaceda. Il have informed all
refugees now in the legation he con-
tlnued, that upon my receiving word that
this rule in regard to examining their COR
respondence had been in any way violated
| should cause The expulsion of the guilty
ones from their asylum. So far as | have
been able to learn up to date there does not
appear to be the slightest grounds for be-
lleving or even suspecting that anyone of
the refugees in the United States legation
was implicated in the plot to kill Colonel
Canto. The rumor," Mr.. ERan added,
twas started in the raoid press of this
court.'
The military tribunal has decided, after
examining number of minor ex-army
officers formerly in the employ of Balma-
ceda, to suspend for six years all their
right to bol6 either civil or military offices
In addition they must give security fol-
their good behavior.
Your correspondent finds reliable au-
thorlty for stating that the entire question
of the relations between Chill and the
United States, the present and past atti
tude OF Minister Egan, and general views
on subjects referring to the affai,
between the respective countries will bt
