The New Junta Issues heVoiu'ion~iS
ProcIamation-The Braziuan Navy
Divided

The New Junta Issues Revolutionary
Proclamation-The Brazilian Navy
Divided
VALPARAISO, November 15.-Ihe
Chilean Minister at Buenos Ayres wires
his Government that the Provisional
Junta recently organized in the State oil
Rio Grande Do Sui, Brazil, Is composed
Of Visconde De PeletaS, Itaqui, Ossorlo,
Silviera. Martins and DR.. ASST Brazil.
The President OF the Junta Is Or.
Brazil. Sllviera Martins is a former
Governor OF Rio Grande Do Sui. lie
was exiled after Dom Pedro was de-
throned, but was permitted a Few months
later to return TO his native country
He is very popular at Rio Grande do
Snl. and a pronounced Republican. Wis
conde Ne Peletas was also Governor OF
Rio Grande Do Sui, but was removed
because Of his ardent sympathy with
Martins.
The five members Of the Junta have
issued q proclamation Of protest against
the acts OF Fonseca, and have made a
general demand upon all the cities OF
Rio Grande Do Sui to appoint revolu-
tionary committees, whose duty 1t VIII
be TO enlist men and secure arms Tor
the revolutionists. The Junta declares
in favor Of an impartial government as
a substitute for the Dictatorship, and IL
Is 90 proceed to the election OF a new
President in place OF FOnseea. The
latter's conduct I'm dissolving Congress,
the Junta says, was against the laws OF
the land and q menace 10 the liberty or
the Republic.
The latest advices from Rio Janeiro
say that FOnseca is augmenting his
forces, and that the city is in a state OF
great excitement. The exchange has
receded to II. 1t Is said that the de-
serters from the government army TO
the insurgents ranks are armed with
American rifles and four Krupp guns.
Fonseca is reported to have 10000 men
concentrated at Rio JaneirO. 1t is the
general belief in BuenOs Ayres that
Fonseca will triumph over his enemies.
Ii is said that Ex-Governor Castillo,
OF Rio Grande Do Sui, has been ordered
by the Junta to mobilize the National
Guard against the Dictator.
A report reaches here from Montevi-
dec, Uruguay, that the Brazilian navy
is divided in it's sympathies. One branch
has declared itself strongly in favor OF
Fonseca, another has taken the side Of
the revolutiOnists, and third has as
sumed an independent attitude. A
commission appointed by the revolu-
tionists has arrived at MOntevideO.
Their object is to try and obtain arms
for the insurgents.

LONDON, November 16,-The CORE
spOndent of the London Times at San
tiago de Chilli cables to-day that the
Chilean Minister at Buenos Ayres has
telegraphed TO the Chilean government
saying that the opposition Junta, or
Provisional Government of the National
party, now has dominant powers in the
Province Of Rio Grande Do Sui, and
that IL has been able in about a week.
time TO arm and equip force of $4,000
riflemen.
In artillery, it Is added, the Junta is
weak, having as yet been able to obtain
possession Of only four field guns. This
branch Of the service, however, will
shortly, it is said, be reinforced.
According to the Times correspond
ent the Junta's navy only consists Of the
Alagos, a monitor, but IL is known here
that this Is probably an error, as the
National party is said TO have several
gunbOatS, in addition 10 the monitor, at
its disposal. The Junta, in addition to
It's work In placing quite respectable
army In the field, is taking steps In the
Province of Rio Grande Do Sui, and in
other provinces, to bring about an cleo
tion for q President In place OF Marshal
Da Fonseca whom the Junta declares to
have lost all rights in that position by
his unconstitutional action in diSSolving
Congress and in assuming the powers of
q dictator.
Almost daily bodies Of deserters from
the Dictator's army are joining the
Junta's army, and both sides are pre-
pairing for desperate struggle. Da
Fonseca is said TO be expecting soon to
be in apOSition TO move upon Rio Grande
Do Sui with an army Of 10000 men,
while leaving his rear and base OF oper-
stions protected by strong reserve
force Of troops. IL this should be the
case there will be terrible fighting and
much loss OF life.
1t now appears that the revolutionary
movement has been brewing for some
time past, and that Da Fonsceca's action
in disSOlving Congress and assuming the
authority Of Dictator was only the occa-
sion which brought matters to head.
For long time past there has been a
strong and growing sentiment in Rio
Grande Do Sui and elsewhere against the
alleged management Of the National
finances and other matters Of Importance
to the country at large. Open charges Of
corruption and fraud have been made
and the coming of a revolutionary storm
was apprehended in many quarters. So
much so that, for months past, arms
and ammunition in considerable quantl-
ties have been struggled into Rio Grande
Do Sui, which fact has enabled the
Junta TO so quickly organize an army.
