Horrible Story Of the Fate of European
EmiRrants to Brazil

Horrible Story Of the Fate of European
Emigrants to Brazil
LONDON, Feb. l5.-M. Dygasinski, the
correspondent of the Warsaw Courier, who
has just returned from Brazil, declares that
the Brazilian government threw every OBJ
stacle in the way of his ellciting the truth
concerning the immigration question. He
says the Brazilian government decided some
time ago to import 100000 immigrants.
and that the North German Lloyd Steam
ship Company has already landed 14O, 900
immigrants, receiving 800 marks each for
them. The immigrants were not allowed to
found colonies, but were scattered in forests
in the interior and left to their fate, to die
of hunger, fever and snake bites, or be
devoured by wild animals Unable to COM
municate with their friends the few who
survived retraced their steps to Rio Janeiro,
begging of planters, who treated them like
slaves and exacted exorbitant services in re-
turn for scanty meals. At Rio Grande the
correspondent found 700 immigrants in a
dying state huddled in a wooden chapel,
while thousands were camping in the streets
of cities through which he passed, or in
forests. NJ. Dygasinski has testified on oath
to the truth of his statements before the
Bremen judges inquiring into the scandal.
Nevertheless immigration continues the
same as ever, and even goes on at night.

But the impression remained upon tbs

it was thought best TO take the colored
man from the jail to be confronted by Mrs.

A short distance from town IL was de-
cided that 1t was not best TO go to McPher-
son, and the prisoner was brought back TO
jail in a carriage escorted on either side by
a file Of armed men. So strong an under
current of excitement prevailed that the
court room was more or less disturbed by it,
rather marring the effect Of the very fine
address Of sgd Carter to the jury in the

Mr. @. B. Cartwright, A. a. g p A. Sterling

My DEAR SIR-The steamship Salerno, being
under charter to your company to transport a
cargo to Liverpool, England, arrived at the see
buoy, where sent my first officer to the light
house keeper and secured chart with which
came right up to Port Tampa without any pilot

left your docks drawing eighteen feet, and
proceeded to sea, and found the lowest water

the government is rapidly deepening. Capt.
Fields, superintendent dredging company, took
the depth of water that he claimed was un-
doubtedly there.
Port Tampa is the cheapest port that know
OF in the world; there being no piotaGe, har-
bormaster's fees, no dockage nor any charges
whatever against a ship. With the fine railroad
and large docks-the railroad tracks coming
within five feet of the ship, brings the handling
OF phosphate down to very low figure,
and with the efficient manner
that these docks are being managed,
with its perfect system OF water works on the
pier, plenty of room to do the largest of ship
ping business, and being twenty-nine feet of
healthy location insures a wonderful future for
this port, and my English brother shipmasters
will be as much pleased TO come TO your grand
port in the summer as winter to load. Yours

Apparently He is Getting Ready to
b. Occupy 1t on March 5.
From the yeto York Sun.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 10.-When David B.
Hill of New York takes his seat in the
United States Senate on March next he
will find himself amid very congenial sur
roun1ings. His desk will be situated be-
tween that of Senior Daniel of Virginia on
his left and that of Senator Colquitt of
Georgia on his right. Senatorial desks are
assigned on the principle of first come first
serve.
Capt. Isaac Bassett, the white-haired old
assistant sergeant-at-arms, who has been an
employee of the Senate for nearly sixty
years, keeps little red book In which he
makes note of the requests of senators to
get possession of certain seats when
vacated. Thus, as soon as a senator is de-
feated for reelection a colleague enters his
name in the red book, and the vacated chair
is assigned to him accordingly. Yester-
day Capt. Bassett received a letter from
Senator-elect Hill requesting as desirable a
seat as possible. The old gentleman thereupon
consulted his list of applications. He found
it possible to assign to Mr.. Hill the desk
now occupied by Senator Wade Hampton
of South Carolina, and so it happens that a
New York senator will find himself on
March seated between those handsome
and whiskerless statesmen, the Hon. John
Warwick Daniel and Alfred Holt Colquitt.
This chair has been occupied for twelve
years by the one-legged veteran, Wade
Hamptrn of South Carolina, who was de-
feated by the alliance candidate, MIR. Irby.
The desk to which Senator Hill has thus
been assigned is the outer row of the demo
cratic side, but is centrally located and in
direct line with the eye OF the president pro
tempore. Immediately In front of this
desk is that occupied by the leader of the
democrats, Senator Arthur p. German Of
Maryland. 1t Is regarded as very desira-
BILE location, and Mr.. Hill, being a new
senator, may congratulate himself on hav-
ing had the foresight to secure it.
