Further Details of the Decisive Battle of
BRrranca Pass.


GRANADA, NICARAGUA, May 25.-
Additional details OF the decisive battle
Of Barranea Pass, near Masaya, show
that it was even more disastrous than
10 was first believed to be. Reliable
data shows that the government losses
were l55 killed and 267 wounded. The
fighting which resulted so disaStrouSly
10 the SacaZas government began at 10
o'clock on the morning OF May 18th.
Supported by its batteries north OF Mn
diri station the government column al
vanced toward the position held by the
revolutiOnists. .
As the troops advanced the insurgent
battery on Coyetepe hill opened nre;
The well-trained field pieces played
havoc with the attacking columns ana
caused them TO turn back. The col
NJ was hurriedly reformed and ad-
yanced again In the face Of the deadly
fire from the batteries On Coyetepe hl'l'
The Kruop guns OF Sacrza gave many
a roar, out did no damage TO the insur-
gent forces.
Every effort to silence the guns on
COyetepe hill was useless while the In
surgent batteries were raking the gov
ranks with distressing effect.
The advance of their infantry was
checked and the effort to carry the
height was finally abandoned. Carry
ing away their wounded with them,
Sacaza's troops were finally forced TO
leave the field. When the fight had
ended they filed three cars with their
wounded soldiers and sent them back TO
Manaya. None OF the revolutionlsts
were injured.
Thirteen hundred government troops
attempted to fight their way out to the
position held by the insurgents, but
were unsuccessful and were forced to
retire.
1t was supposed that this would end
the fighting for the daY, but two hours
later the demorallZed government
forces had been reformed and were or
dered again 10 the attack. Scores OF
men fell on the battlefield. The assault
ing columns were forced TO retreat n
Gen. Barrancas, reYolutionist, was In

The presence Of an American war
ship in N"icaraguan waters is needed for
protection Of American interests. The
government issued a decree some days
ago prohibiting the steamers of the Pa
ci6c Mail and from landing at San Juan
Da Sur. IL is believed they will be
boarded by government officers at Cor
into, aud that all merchandise consigned
TO persons who %sympathiZe with the
revolutiOnists will be c~Onbscated.
Should this be their purpose in ordering
vessels to land only at COrinto the need
Of q war ship can be readily seen.

Secretary Carlisle writes a Letter Denh-
ing the Position of the Departments.
WASHINGTON, d. c.. May 25--tn or
der that there may be uniformity OF ac-
ton among collectors OF customs q a
| thorough understanding on their part
OF the Secretary's construction OF EXIST
ing laws on the Chinese question, Secre-
tsry Carlisle has written q letter OF IN
strpctions ON this subject. The letter,
II is stated. does not relate to the Geary
exclusion act, and makes no change III
the orders already issued. The let1er
reads as follows:
WAsHINGrox, D. c., May "a, 1893.
Collector of Customs, New York;
SIR:-By department circular dated the
4th inst, officers of this department were
instructed TO refrain from making arrests
under the provisions of the act approved
Nav 8. 1S95, entitled IAN act TO prohibit
the coming of Chinese into the United
States, until otherwise directed. This or
der remains in force so far as it applies to
Chinese persons who have failed to obtain
certificates Of residence under the provls-
ions of the sixth section OF said act, but WHO
otherwise would have g right to remain IN
the United States.
1t is known, however, that great num-
bers of Chinese laborers have entered the
United States in violation OF the provisions
of the act approved May q, 1892, as
amended by the act approved July oth,
1854, and Of the act approved OCTOBER l,
1885. Many Of there persons a v obtained
admission upon false representations that
they were not laborers but merchants, ana
others nave entered clandestinely from
contiguous foreign territory.
Inviting your attention to the lst, "a, 80;
4th aud 5th sections of the act approved
May 3 1892, entitled IAN act to prohibit
the coming of Chinese persons into the
United States" which continue In force,
the provisions of previous acts prohibit
ing the coming into this country CHI
nese laborers, and providing for the
trial, Imprisonment and deporta-
ton of such persons who under
said laws are found to be not lawfully en-
titled to remain in the United States, you
are directed TO use ell the means under
your control to vigorously enforce said
provisions Of law and TO take such meas
ures as may be necessary TO secure the ar
rest and prosecution of Chinese laoorers
who are unable to show that they have oo.
tanned lawful admission into the United
States.

Good Report. from the Roach Orchards.

FLEMINGTON, N. j., Nav 24-Two hun
dred and ninety replies out OF 500 inquiries
sent out to the largest peach-growers in
this section, regarding the prospects for
this years crops, substantially report that
the prospects for an immense crop are good.
The cold spring weather retarded the
growth OF peach buds until the late frosts
were over. The buds are opening now and
are healthy In appearance. In the year OF
a full crop, HunterdOn county has yield
I,5OO.0C baskets. 1t is confidently ex.
pected that that number will be exceeded
this year. Similar encouraging reports
come from Warren, Somerset and Sussex
counties, where the peach interest has
greatly developed during the last five
wears.

WASHINGTON. Oct. THE proclama-
ton Of Admiral de Mellos, the leader Of
the Brazilian revolution, TO his fellow
citizens, has reached this city. 1t bears
date of Sept. 8. The admiral reviews at
length the cause which led up to the
revolution and says that the president
of the republic armed Brazilians against
Brazilians merely in order to satisfy his
personal caprice and to strengthen in
the future by terror his iron dictatorship.
HE opens the Golfers of the public treas
ury with his hand and bankruptcy is al
ready at our doors with all its train of
horrors and misery. Self-willed power
reigns everywhere. The nation is anx-
ious TO see itself free from a government
that degrades II; the time is therefore
come for the reconquest Of rights that
were suppressed and trampled under
foot. The republican administration de-
sends to heavy abuse. To struggle 20
not see our country degraded and
thrown down; to fight for the principles
of liberty; to hand down spotless to our
sons the name and honor Of the ancestors
who made free the government of Brazil
This is the position in which we find our
selves.
Officers of the Navy, Brazilians and
Citizens of a Free Country-I once more
find myself on the field of revolutionary
action TO offer battle to the annihilators
OF the constitution and to restore the
rule Of law, order and peace. That the
Brazilian nation may assume possession
of its sovereignty and know how to di-
rect it within the limits of the republic,
this is my desideratum, this my supreme
purpose. Long live the Brazilian nation.
long live the republic; long live the con-
stitution.
