perial party was in charge Of Count Leo
Wurmbrand. who. in addition to his re-
sponsibility for the PRINCES safe conduct
must at ali times be within call of the arch
duke. This diguitary ia an absolute
authority upon all matters of court eti-
ouette; he will also confer with the secre-
tary of state concerning all appearances of
Franz Ferdinand.
Franz Ferdinand. although but twenty
nine years OF age, is Il gene, al in the army
of Austria. and in the armies of Russia and
of the German empire. He has been hon
ored by the crowned heads OF Europe with
decorations Of the highest order of nobility.
Public interest was aroused in ths prince
on she death of the Crown Prince Rudolf,
and investigation showed that he was a
naughty. proud and cold man; that his
political views wore decidedly behind the
times, inasmuch that he vas a firm believer
in absolutism; and that he WAS leading a
dissolute life. 1t WAS therefore deemed n
wise move whom the emperoY deolded TO
send his nephew on trip around the world,
that he might come In contact with oil
forms of government and with people Of all
nations.
The father of Ferdinand is the next heir
to the throne; but as he Ks 80 years of age
but three wears younger than his brother,
Emperor Franz Josef. II is n OF probable that
he will ever assume the Ieins of governments.
Therefore his son IL regard ded as the future
emperor.
The archduke is not married. end the
question of suitable bride for him has
q rently perplexed Franz Josef. The choice
must fall upon Catholic princess who Is q
member Of reiRninR family.

LONDON, Sept. 2O.--AdmiraI de Mello has

of Immediately bombardinQ the oity with
all his ships unless II promptly su,TendeYs.
This information comes from an agent Of
isadina banking house in this city with
large BRAZILIAN interest. and II ia believed
to be thoroughly reliable, Tho dispatch
adds that Rio is In the utmost consterns-
tion and dismny. Citizens arc fleeing TO
the county with such of their belongings
as they can carry. Merchants are packing
goods In cellars preparatory to following

powers are using their utmost Efforts to

they throw ahells into the city. II is recoR-
nized that TO hold out means simply the
destruction Of the city without any com
pensatian or advantage TO Peixoto.
Meantime three rebel vessels have reached
santos, and after q sharp fight succeeded
in landing strong force Of marines. and
at the time the dispatch was sent were en-
deavoripg TO take the city By assault, with
probabilities of success.
Viscount Darinos, the Brazilian minister,
received kilograms last night which made
no mention Of the success OF the rebels
hence he Ia of the opioniou that the govern
ment officers at Rio have not been inter
fered with. and that President Peixoto has
not left Rio de Janeiro. The minister docs
not believe the news in regard TO the ulti-
matum said to have been delivered by Ad-
rniYnl dc Mello and does not consider the
situation alarming. He admits, however,
that of late there has been considerable
feeling against the president. il being
alleged that he had violated tho constitu-
| tion.
The present agitation, according TO the
minister. was probably caused in view Of
the fact that the presidential election takes
place In March. The ministeH received q
telegram to-day that the Bank Of Brazil
and other banks at Rio were open and
transactiuR business. and that exchange
would also be quoted to-day.

ROANOKE. Va, Sept. 20.-Ono of the most
dastsrdly outiaRsa In the history Of this
city occurred at about 10 o'clock this morn
Ing. Mrs. Henry S. Bishop wao enticed by
q negro named Thomas Smith from the
market, where she had come to sell pro-
duco into an empty saloon basement,
beaten into inssnsibility and robbed OF her
pocket book containing less than 81. The
fiend was captured and lodged in jail. A
crowd gathered around the Jail and kept
increasing as night approached. Al five
O'Clock tbs Roanoke light infantry marched
to the jail, by orders Of Mayor Trout.
Guards were posted and tho streots in the
immediate vicinity cleared. About dark
the crowd was increased by 100 men from
ths vicinity OF the wonan's home. headed
by Mrs. Bishops son.
At eight O'clock portion Of the mob
battered at the side door Of the jail. where
tho militia and Mayor Trout appeared.
Shooting was commenced by tho mob and
the mayor was shot in the foot. Tho
militiu was then ordered to return the fire
and volley from about twenty-f five rifles
was poured into the mob. Eight men
were killed by tho tro and as many more
wounded, some fatally.
During the exoitement caused by the VOL
10y tho negro was taken from tho Jail by
officers and secreted. The dead and
wounded were removed to drug stores and
to tic Offices of nearby physicians. The
militia then dispersed and left the scene as
quietly as possible.
Following 10 q list OF dead and injured
az far Aa known At nre0enA:
Dead: e. A. Vick, hotel proprietor; vii!
Sheetz, fireman on a railroad; Chas. w.
Whitsmire. conductor on a railroad: r. b.

Several speeches were made after the
militia retired and Judge Woods, of the
negro had been removed from the Jail, and
accompanied two crowds through the jail
to prove the truth Of his statement. His
statemcnt did much to pncify the crowd,
but they hung around the jail and adjacent
streets for several hours afterwards, many
dispensing to search for the secteted pris-
onsr. n"
Az midnight tho acene had quoted down
and no further trouble was expected. The
militia remain under the mayors orders,
although II is probable they will not be
called out again. Mayor Trout is firm In
the position he assumed, and declares that
he will uphold the laws. The dead were
removed to undertaking establishments and
will be prepared for burial.
