Mexican Revolutionists waitin. for the
Troops to Attack Them.

Deming, N. NJ, November 17.-Cour-
iers just up from the scene of the Mex
ican revolution report that the rebels
have entered the Mormon colonies of
Diaz, Chihuahua and Pacheco, and have
taken horses, arms and, supplies, bat
have offered no bodily harm to the col
onists.
The rebels are now encamped in the
foothills of Sierra Madras, waiting the
approach of the Mexican troops, who
will reach the scene about next Tues
day. The refugees who have crossed
into the United States for protection re-
port that the rebels number about 800.
Persons falling into the hands of the
rebels were robbed of arms and horses
and allowed to go on with the promise
to get out of the country. The revolu-
tionists are being led by Santa Ana Pc
reZ. A large number of Temochian In
dians and discontented Mexioans have
Joined the movement.
Mexican officials say the rebels will
be dispersed and captured as soon as
troops arrive, but their position is such
that they will be able to. hold out for
several weeks. The present object of
the rebels is to provide themselves with
supplies and arms, in order to success
fully stop the troops. Pickets stop all
persons going into the disturbed coun-
try and order them to get away on pen
atty of death. Mexican troops are COM
ing from San Jose and Nogales and will
concentrate at Palomas. A bsSMe is

PENNEY's BIG DROP.
He Thought Murderer Graves Was After
Him and Fell Twenty-Five Feet.

Bangor, November 17.-Herbert G.
Penny of Amherst, who was welded
some months ago to Mary Ann French of
Belfast, woman many years older than
he, created considerable excitement at
the Windsor Hotel last night.
Penney has been drinking heavily for
a month, and man who keeps full OF
liquor all that time soon has the horrors.
He has been in Bangor about a week
and last night he went to the Windsor
and engaged a room for the night. Land
lord Durgin saw that he was in pretty
bad shape so he had man accompany
him to his room and stay there during
the night.
1t will be well remembered that
the time of the capture of
Graves, tho man who murdered the war
dens in Hancock county, in California,
Penney was accused of giving the offic-
ers the necessary information to make a
successful capture. Graves is some re-
lation to Penney, and he was in cores
pondence with his wife in Amherst when
Penney saw her reading letter from
him which gave the information which
led to his capture.
Since Penny began drinking some time
ago he has imagined thatGraves had been
liberated from prison and was trying to
find him SO that he could kill him.
After he entered his room last night
he told the man with him that he better
lock the door so Graves could not enter.
While the man was engaged at the door
Penney jumped upon q bed raised the
window and plunged into the air.. The
nurse saw him just as he was going
| through the window and turned and
caught him by the arm. He held him
as long as possible and then let go.
Penney fell distance of 25 feet or
more to the ground, and being heavy
man he struck hard, breaking the left
leg below the knee. A physician was
quickly summoned and reduced the
fractura

HELEN GOULD's ROMANCE.
In New York They Say That She Has Be
come Engaged, After Many TribuIations,
to a Young Actor.

New York, November 17-Harry Wood
ruff young actor in the "Charley's
Aunt" company, now playing at the
Standard theatre, has handed in his
resignation and announced his intention
of studying law. The real reason of his
resignation is that he is engaged to be
married to Jay Gould's daughter, Helen.
The affair has been going on for a long
time, and George Gould until lately has
been bitterly opposed to it. 1t is only
recently, after leaving no stone unturned
to break off this affair that he has given
his consent, on condition that Woodruff
retlres from the stage and takes a two
years. course at Yale. George Gould has
consented to pay all his college expenses,
and is said to have given the young man
Sio,U0O TO keep his mouth closed about
the matter until the expiration of hisstwo
years of probation. If at the end of that
time the young couple are still in love

parts OF young boys, and has earned for
n1msen the nickname of THE Boy
ingenue," is by no means as young AS he
looks. In fact, his next birthday will be
his goth. When Edith Kingdom, now
Mrs. George Gould, was playing at Daly's
was member of the company, After
her marriage Mrs. Gould invited Wood
ruff to her house, and it was there that
he met Helen Gould The young people
took fancy to each other from the fist.
and it was not long before old jay Gould
took young Mrs. Gould aside and inti-
mated that one member of the theatrical
profession in his family was enough.
For a year or SO Helen saw very little
OF Woodruff, but since her theirs death
she has renewed the friendship of her
own accord. George Gould was still on.

Of her own and informed him that she
liked Woodruff and would see as.muchsof
him as she liked. George forbade her to
correspond with him, and thereafter all
atheir love letters were concealed in the
bottom of bon bon boxes. A thriving
postal service was concocted, and the
Goulds's bon bon trade received a boom
just about this time.
1t is said that at the time George Gould
discovered this clandestine correspond
ence. he caused Woodruff's arrest, but as
the young man had committed no offence
in the eyes of the law he was released

INTERESTING DEVELOPMENT IN

appointed by ssLiliuokalani originally,
and continued by the provisional gov
ernment in the same place. He also is
brother of the late Richard Irwin of
Addition, Division and Silencen fame.
Robert Irwin, the Admiral's brother,
has made fortune and is in the receipt
OF princely income yet, from sending
Japanese coolies to the islands.
This may account for the belief "that
Admiral Irwin will be more in harmony
with Mr.. Willis, the new minister to
Hawaii, than his predecessor, in carrying
out the policy of the administration in
regard to those islands,
Admiral Irwin is believed to be an
officer of excellent character and stand
ing, but there is nothing in his family
history to indicate that he is likely to
Voluntarily do anything which will in

1t is sufficient to add THAI the annex-
alton of the the Hawaiian Islands to the
United States would knock, the business

1t is very probable that MI. Claus

coolie labor, knows both Commissioner
Irwin and the sAdmiral,; and for their
common interest fhas not been a adead-
lockhead" in the enterprise in which
they are now engaged, under the patron-
age and protection of the administration.
The foregoing facts, taken In connection
with the announcement made several
months ago, that MI. Paramount Blount

The Strange Articles Signed by the Gre,
of Ell Cid in New York

The Strange Articles Signed by the Crew
of Ell Cid in New York.
New York, November 17.-The crew of
El Cid signed articles yesterday and
went aboard the ship today. The articles
were signed at No. 81 South street, in,
rooms engaged by Flint & Co., especially
for the purpose. Each man was rigidly
examined physically and was also sub
jected to close scrutiny by half dozen
detectives, Boarding master James j E.
Madden, who represented the Brazilian
consul, and John H. Quail, the shipping
agent, who recruited the men.
This scrutiny made it impossible, the
officers claimed, for any man acting in
sympathy with Mello's agents to enlist
on Ell Cid. Mr.. Quail claims to know
were 225 in all, including sailors, stokers,
oilers, engineers, cooks, carpenters and
other auxiliaries of seagoing craft
Each man signed articles binding him
self to the service of Salvador Mendonca,
Minister Plnenipotentiary of the United
states of Brazil to the United States of
America, representing the said United
steamship, which is now bound from
thep port of New York to Rio Janeiro,
Brazil"
The name of the steamer was left
blank. There was one strange clause in
the articles, which stipulated that the
agreement did not constitute an enlist
ment or an agreement to enlist in the
Brazilian navy; lor to commit any act
in violation of the law of nations or of
the municipal laws of the United States. !"
This was Offset in part, however, 10y q
clause which states that the officers,
seamen, mariners and crew are at all
times to do their best endeavors for the
preservation of said vessel and cargo
when at sea in the event of attacks from
pirates or other persons unlawfully at
tempting to seize or injure the same"
Ell Cid, bristling with guns and swarm-
ing with workmen, lay at the foot of
Joralemon street, Brooklyn, yesterday,
taking her coal from lighters while the
tug Charms did picket service outside
the dock to see that no strange craft got
alongside the war vessel or meddfed
with her. The ships deck fittings were
given a fresh coat of paint, and her
guns, with the exception of the dynamite
terror, were painted brown. A gang
worked all day slowing shot and shell
below The vessel will; probably sail
either Saturday night or Sunday, it is
stated. The officer of Ell Cid who will
conduct the fighting, if she has any, is
Charles H. Hill, a graduate of Annapolis
in the class of 1880. He served in the
United States ship Alliance during her
Arctic search for the Jeanette, and has
also served on the Enterprise. In 1884
he retired from the navy, and has since
been in business.

Chicago, November 17.-Commencing
tonight, Chicago will be, between the
hours of 1 and 6 a. M, practically under
martial law, with the police force as a
garrison. Every person found on the
streets, outside of a few streets where
business is carried on all night, will be
halted by officers in plain clothes and
requested to give an account of himself.
Every person who acts in suspicious
manner or bears weapons or tools that
might be used in burglary, will be placed
under arrest. By this rigid method it is
hoped that many of the midnight prowl-
ers who have committed SO many mur-
ders and burglaries recently, will be cap

HERE'S ANOTHER THRONE
Report Says that Mello Has Set Up
the Brazilian Empire Again.
GRESHAM HAS NOT HAD TIME TO
TELL US OUR DUTY.

The Report Is that the Rebel Admiral Has
Proclaimed Dom Pedro's Eldest Grand
son Emperor-A Despatch from Cap
tain Picking, However, Tends to Dis
credit the Report-M Eel Cid
Is Almost Ready for Sea.
Madrid, November 17.-Senor Moret,
Spanish minister of foreign affairs, has
received from Brazil telegram that Ad-
miral Mello has proclaimed Count d'Eu's
eldest son Emperor of Brazil. This son
is Prince Pierre d'Alcantara Louis Phil
ippe. His mother is the present Coun-
tess d'Eu and Princess Isabella of Bra
ganza, daughter of the late Dom Pedro
1t will be remembered that one of the
causes of the downfall of the empire in
Brazil was the unpopularity of the
Count d'Eu, unpopularity in which the
Princess, who had acted as regent during
the absences of Dom Pedro from his
capital, shared. Prince Louis of Bour-
bon-Orleans, Count d'Eu, is the son of
the Duke of Nemours and grandson of
Louis Philippe, King of the French. He
married Princess Isabella in 1854, and
they have had three sons, the eldest of
whom, according to the above report,
has been proclaimed Emperor by Mello.

Said To Be Sane but Fiendish-A Dyna-
mite Bomb Found in the Cellar of
New York House.
New York, November 17-"I didn't
those nabobs. They don't have to work,
and they live like kings, while many
poor fellows are going about the streets
without ten cents to buy bread with. !"
That was the statement made at the
police station in West Both street by Geo.
A. Roeth, who had just met fattering
success if frightening people was his
only purpose.
1t was few minutes before p. m.
yesterday when a shol mar, who had a
clean shaven face and sharp features,
stopped on the Fifth avenue sidewalk in
front of Delmonico's and looked into the
restaurant. He seemed to be cold and
hungry as he looked through the plate
glass windows at the tables where deli
cate viands were being served to comfort
ably clad men and women. 1t was too
early for the restaurant to be crowded,
but there were fifty or more people ate
the ia bfes Suddenly the man drew from
his pocket a five chambered revolver of
large calibre, pointed it at the fourth
window north of the entrance in the
avenue and fired. The bullet made
hole through the plate glass, and passed
over the heads of four persons seated at
a table near the window. Then the man
ran swiftly to the entrance of the restau
rant, and, pausing there for a moment,
he fred two more shots quickly. The
bullets made holes in the window i'm
mediateiy north of the entrance, and
entered the restaurant at angles which
let them pass safely over the heads OF the
patrons and walters.
Before the echoes of the shots had died
away the man with the revolver had
darted through the door into the vesti-
bule. There he enptied his weapon by
firing two uore shots, the bullets flying
against the ceiling.
The firing had already caused tumult
in the restaurant. Women screamed, and
rushed toward the exits, minding nothing
in their haste. Men ran out hatless.
Walters scurried about bewildered, try
ing to hide themselves. Some of them
crawled under the tables The man who
had caused the commotion stood in the
vestib bule and laughed, holding the
smoking revolver in his hand.
= Felix j. Jewell, fireman of Engine
of the restaurant He seized the man
after the fifth shot was fired, and threw
him down on the floor. A moment later
Roeth had been disarmed and was in
the custody of police officer. At the
police station the prisoner said he was
George A. Roeth, a stone cutter, q years
old, unmarried, and lived at No. $50 West
10th street,
why We're you shooting at Delmoni-
co's?" Sergeant Lane inquired, after hear
ing the charge against the prisoner.
II didn't like the way the rich people
were treating the working class" Roeth
replied, "and wanted to frighten them
into changing their ideas. That was why
| got the revolver and bullets. 1 want
them to give work to poor pople. 1 took
no care not to hurt any of them"
Roeth did not appear to be under the
influence of liquor. When he was locked
up upon the charge of disorderly con-
TO be happy Park Policeman Dillon and
Fireman Jewell made the complaints
against the prisoner, the people at Del
