ALMY STOOD IT WELL.
Cool and collected When He
Pleaded Guilty.

PLYMOUTH, N. H., November 16.-Almy
arrived here on the express train from
Manchester little before lip. m. Be,with
the officers, occupied special car on the
rear of the train. The prisoner was in
charge OF Sheriff Brigham of Lisbon and
Deputy Sheriffs Hawkins Of WoOdville,
Daniels of Ashland and Mccoy of Ply
mouth. A crowd had assembled at the
railway station to get glimpse Of Amy.
A double seated carriage, from which one
of the seats had been removed, was in
waiting. A buffalo robe was spread on
the bottom of the carriage and Almy was
helped in, he taking half reclining posi-
tion. Officers were on either side and the
rear Of the carriage as Almy was conveyed
to the court house, which Is only short
distance away from the Pemigewasset
house. The driver walked the horses, so
there was good opportunity for the crowd
that followed to get look at Almy. One
young man said: SLOW are you Almy?"
but the prisoner made no response. Almy
was neatly dressed, and to all appearance
was not as much interested in the proceed
ings as were the spectators. At the court
mouse Inc prisoner was assisted to alight
and was taken to the room prepared for
him In the building, the public not being
admitted.
At half past two Almy, in charge of the
oftleers, was brought into court. He was
asked by Judge Allen If he would like to
change his plea. and he answered, ~
would" Judge Allen further asked what
plea he desired then to make and Almy an
swered Guilty" The prisoner was then
removed from the court room. His trial
before the court is expected to begin on
Tuesday morning.
The clerk of courts stated tonight that the
lawyers on both sides thought the trial
would occupy three or four days only.
Deputies from Hanover, Haverhitl, Ash
land and plymouth have charge of Almy
and act under sthe high sheriffs' orders.
The question to be decided by the Judge, is
whether Almy Is guilty of murder in the
1rst or second degree. Murder in the first
degree must be premeditated, and the pun
lsnment Is hanging. In the second degree,
the limit Is thirty years Imprisonment.
Judge Allen thinks the trial will occupy
two days at least. He has granted per-
mission for the defence to examine nine
witnesses from Massachusetts,. but he does
not know whether they are here. At a
late hour tonight Almy is sleeping in
charge of four deputies.
The Warden family are registered at the
hotel and will appear as witnesses, to-
gether with Mrs, Kellogg, into whose room
Almy made midnight visit, Miss Goodall,
who was with Christie at the time of the
tragedy. and S. Pattee and young Hewitt
of Hanover, who shot Almy In the barn.
There Is much excitement about the town
over the prospective result of the trial.
Opinion seems to be divided as to the re-
suit OF the hearing.

TAKE YOUR CHOICE.
Hero Is the Other Side of the Bra
lillian Story.

LONDON, November 16.-The news from
Brazil continues to be Of the most conflict
ing character. The official dispatches
from Rio de Janeiro assert with unequivo-
cal positiyeness that the country is abso-
lutely tranquil, while the kilograms from
Buenos Ayres and Santiago report Brazil
torn with dissensions and secessions. What
the actual facts of the situation are will
probably not be definitely known until
mail adVices are received. The censorship
prevents dispatches unfavorable to the au-
thorittes from getting through direct to
Europe from Brazil.
A dispatch to the Times from Santiago
de Chill states that the Chlllan minister at
Buenos Ayres has telegraphed to the Chill
Ian government, saying that the opposl-
tlon Junta, or provisional government of
the National party, has now dominant
power in the province of Rio Grande do
Sui, and that 1t has been able In about a
weeks time to arm and equip force of
10000 ri1emen. In artillery 1t is added
that the Junta is weak, having as yet been
unable to obtain possession of only four
field guns. This branch of the service,
however, will shortly be reinforced. Ac-
cording to the Times correspondent
the Junta's navy only consists
OF the Alagaos. a monitor, but 1t
Is known here that this proba-
UlJ 10 al ckiOLs do buo NdtlOudl party 10
said to have several gunboats besides the
monitor at its disposal. The Junta, in ad-
dition to its work in placing quite re-
spectacle army In the field, Is taking steps
in the province OF Rio Grande do Sui and
in other provinces. to bring about an cleo
ton for a president In place of Marshal
Da FOnseca, whom the Junta declares tO
have lost all rights to that position by his
unconstitutional action in dissolving Con.
gress and in assuming the powers Of die
tatOr.
Almost daily, bodies of deserters from
the Dictator's army are joining the ranks
OF the Junta's army, and both sides are
preparing for desperate struggle. Da
Fonseca is said to be expecting soon to be
in position to move upon Rio Grande do
Sui with an army of $4,000 men, while
leaving his rear and base of operations
protected by strong reserve force OF
troops. III this should be the case there
will be some terrible fighting and much
loss of life.
Another regiment Is said to have aban-
doned Da Fonseca's cause, and to be
marching to join the Junta's troops, and
the garrisons Of six towns are said TO have
done the same. 1t is said that the entire
Brazilian fleet at Itaguabi has Joined the
National party. This statement, it should
be added, needs confirmation. Fighting
between the Dictator's troops and the Ma
tionallsts Is again reported from Itaeui
Both sides claim to have won a victory.
Later-The Dictator's troops at Itaqu
have surrendered and have Joined issue
with their captors. This places another
arsenal, with further stock of arms anC
ammunition in the power Of the insur
gents.

NEW YORK, November 16.-The arrest
Fred Rosenbaum, aged 20, In Hoboken. for
burglary has brought to light q case Of
depravity Of the most striking character.
Brought up with all the advantages which
careful and loving parents could bestow,
with every educational facility granted him
and money enough supplied to Indulge
every reasonable desire, he has, on the very
threshold OF life, become notorious Grim
inal. against whom the police of Hoboken
say they can bring "a dozen charges, any
one Of which Is enough to land him In
prison for long term Of years.
Before he was fairly In his teens young
Rosenbaum organized ''gang" Of boys
like himself, and they became the terror OF
their neighborhO0d. Among them were
several also OF good family, at least two OF
whom have preceded their youHg leader
behind the bars. This body was known as

cape arrest. The gang Is believed TO
have been organized under the inspiration
of dime novels. They had mysterious
ritual, pass words and cave dug out 10

The gang first began operations by steal
Ing coal and selling 1t to dealer, who
was sent to prison for his practices. Inc
money obtained was used In buying beer
and cigarettes for consumption In the cave.
One night detective was walking up
Eighth street, Hob0ken. He smelt smoke
and an investigation led him to discover
the gangs cave. He obtained help and
raided 10. R0Senbaum was not In IL az the
time, and though several OF the gang were
sent to prison, they did not inform on him.

went In and attempted to open the money
drawer. His companion fed. The owner
OF the store, Charles PruseT, who was In

went down stairs to investigate. RoseD-

WASHINGTON. November 16.-Senhor
Mendonca, Brazilian minister here, has
received the following cablegram from the
Brazilian minister of foreign affairs:
RIO, November 1A.-Afirm that complete
tranquility reigns in all the states except Rio
Grande, where conflicts, provoked by questions
pertaining to local politics, have occurred with
which, In virtue Of the constitution, the federal
government could not Interfere. Deny rumorS
of secession. That idea is condemned by all
ceding. Deny that the members OF the dis
solved Congress- are In foreign legations as
refugees. Nearly all the members OF Congress
have returned TO the states and those who re-
main here go about the city at liberty. Thus
far the government has taken no violent meas
ures. A day will be set for the next election
and congress Is convoked to meet Immediately
after. General Dolodores Will review the troops
tomorrow, the anniversary OF the proclamation
OF the republic.
[Signed.I CLKRMoN.
As conflrmatory evidence of the truth
of the statement that the trouble In Rio
Grande are purely internal and have no
bearing on national affairs, Minister Men
donca says he has discovered that the
Junta in that state Is composed of four
persons instead of three, as first reported
and it stands three Republicans TO one old
Liberal The latter Is not believed to
cherish any monarchical principles. The
minister has received private information
TO the effect that the length to which the
revolutionary movement In the state Of
Para went was the adoption by the state
assembly of set of resolutions condemn
ing the action of the President and approx
ing the course pursued by congress.

LOOKING OUT FOR NO. ..
west indian Colonies Prefer the
United States to Canada.

OTTAWA, Ont, November 16.-The re-
plies Of the governments Of the West India
Islands to the reciprocity proposal of Mr..
Foster, minister Of finance, are published.
Sir w. +. Haynes Smith Of the Leeward
Islands, replies that he submitted the Ca
madam proposals to the colonial secretary.
Sir W. Fl. Hutchinson of the Windward
Islands, writes to the same OBJECT.
On behalf of the Bahamas, Sir Ambrose
Shea writes: This colony does not pro-
duce sugar. Our exports are fruits
and sponges. and in the early future. hemp
Will be the largest export. In the United
States, which Is at present our chief mar
ket, no duties are imposed, and we con-
sequently have no benefit in this respect to
receive from Canada"
The colonial secretary Of Bermuda OBJ
serves: This government will not be
prepared to take any definite action on the
proposals IN your communication until the
views Of the legislature of this colony are
ascertained. III they should prove favora-
BILE further communication will be made
with our government with the object of az
certaining on what lines 1t would be prac-
tcable to arrange for reciprocal trade rela-
tions between the Dominion and this colo
n.y."
From Jamaica: "His excellency has
placed the letter before the privy council,
but sees great difficulties in the way of ar
ranging such differential tariff as you
speak of. The most important point
would be whether such reciprocal arrange
ments could be made with one or more of
the West Indian colonies to the exclusion
OF the others. Apart from the question of
reciprocity the action Of Mr.. Brown, M. p,
commissioner Of Canada, at our exhibition
will, His Exceilency has no doubt, largely
increase the trade between Jamaica and
the Dominion of Canada"
The response of British Guiana
while the governor Is anxious in every
sion Of commercial relations between this
colony and the Dominion, His Excellency
cannot encourage the government of Cana
da to the belief that the consent of thi:
government will be given to any differen'
tial tariff which would exclude the sugar:
and fruits of the colony from admission to
tie markets of the United States upon the
most favorable terms"

MethodIst Social Union.

The first meeting OF the season Of the
Methodist Social Union was held last eve
Mug at the Congress street NJ. K. church.
A delicious supper was furnished In the
yestry from $50 to 7.30, when adjournment
was taken to the church above and brief
business session was held, with Rev. DR..
John +. Clymer, president of the Union.
In the chair. There was a spirited discus
sion as to the desirability Of continuing the
Union and doing all that could be done to
make 1t strong.
At 8p. m. the evening meeting proper
opened with music by chorus choir, un-
der direction Of Mr.. Frank BowdolD, the
organ being played by Mr.. Harry t. john
son, the orRanist of the church. After
prayer by Rev. A. w, Pottle, DR.. Clymer
introduced as the first speaker "Rsv. John
Collins, bishop of Peaks Island" The
subject Of the evening meeting was the re-
cent Ecumealcal Conference In Washing
ton, as seen by some Of those who were
present. Mr.. Collins was present and he
proceeded to describe what be saw; first,
the city, then the people who were there,
and then what they did. The description
was In Mr.. Colllns's inimitable style and
was received with shouts Of laughter aud
| applause. Descending TO sober narrative,
Mr.. Collins said that he was much sur
prlsed by the radicalism and Yankee fire
displayed by the English delegates to the
| conference. He then declared that he
| thought there was rattllng around In the
| church, change In the life tenure OF bish-
| ops, general rubbing up Of brasses and
cleaning Of cobwebs as the result OF the
gathering.
Captain il. Fl. Shaw was the second
speaker. He described the gathering In
detailed fashion and touched upon the
many topics treated In the meetings. He
spoke OF the sizs and Importance Of the
delegations Of the colored church and
prophesied that in 250 years Africa would
| be negro republic with descendant Of
an American slave for president. This,
he thought, would be brought about BY the
active mission work Of the Methodist
church.
Rev. Matt S. Hughes. the last speaker.
dwelt on the prominence given tbs social
side In the Washington conference. This
he declared to bs as 1t should. and he said
that II the Methodlsts at large were to hold
their own they must elevate the social
features Of their live above the present one
cent basis.
