RIO SAID TO HAVE FALLEN.
Report that President PeixotO Was Sur
rendered to MellO.

ICopyriq1t, 1898, By the AsSoe,G,ed Press.l
PERNAMBUCo, December 22.-The
most startling and sensational rumors
are in circulation here and as they come
from various sources and directions it
would seem that the report which Is
causing much commotion is widespread.
According to this report which reached
here from Rio De Janeiro to-day the
IuS'--Seent feet. after two days OF desul-
tory ngntlng WIN TUG government
troops, have made determined and
successful attack upon Rio De Janeiro,
which has resulted in the capture Of
that city. 1t is added that President
Peixoto has resigned the presidency in
favor Of Admiral De Mello and that
Peixoto is prisoner in the hands Of
his enemies.
These are the facts as they have reach
ed US here, but ii is rightto add that the
authorities Of Pernambuco, who have
been questioned on the subject doubt
the truth of the startling news which is
in circulation here. The Associated
Press correspondent is doing his utmost
to 6nd ont the real facts in the case,
but be is unable to obtain any reply to
his messages sent south, and messages
from the Associated Press cores pom
dent az Rio have apparently been inter
cepted, which would give color to the
report that something Of an extraor-
dinary nature has occurred.
A battle between the rebels and the
government forces is reported to have
taken place yesterday in the interior.
Fifty OF the government troops are said
TO have been killed.
BUENos AYREs, December GA
severe engagement between the Brazil
ian insurgents and the government
troops is reported to have taken place
at Itajahy, north OF DesterOy. The num-
Der of killed was said to be 400 and in
addition a very large number are said
TO have been wounded. The govern
ment forces are said TO have captured
the rebel Brazilian Warship Madoro.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1893-12-23

WASHINGTON, D. c., December o.
The Associated Press has investigated
everv possible avenue of information in
Washington as to the rumors In Per-
nambuco that Rio had fallen and that
President Peixoto had resigned and
was a prisoner. But neither In otfi-
cial or diplomatic circles has
any word been received which confirms
the rumors. This failure OF all depart
ments and interested legations to re-
ceive information, much less rati hca-
ton, OF such an important subject is so
uniform as to lead officials and diplo-
mats to the conclusion that the rumors
current in Pernambuco are premature
atany rate.
At the Navy Department no word OF
any such startling movement has been
received from Captain Picking, in COM
mand of the United States naval forces
at Brazil. He is directed to report
promptly on any important changes
OF the situation, and has thus
far done so. The suppression of
dispatches by the Peixoto authorities
does not extend to official dispatches
from naval and diplomatic officers.
The conclusion In naval circles is al
most irresistible that the failure to hear
from Captain Plckings means that the
Pernambuco rum0rs are not true as yet
at aoy rate, particularly as Pickings is
a. the scene of action while the Pernam-
buco people are many miles removed
from Rio.
At the State Department there is no
word whatever from Minister Thompson
or any one else in Brazil, and the de-
partment officials can hardly believe
that they would be kept in ignorance
of the overthrow e a government and
the capture of + sident.
LONDON, December 22.-The report
ed capture of Rio Janeiro by the insur-
gent forces reached this city after the
close of business hours. At the clubs
and in all public places the rumor was
eagerly discussed.
The Brazilian Minister was beseged
by enquirers and in reply to questions
on the subject the Minister said that
the last cable message which he received
from Rio Janeiro was on December 20,
when the Minister Of Marine said that
all was right at Rio.
New YORK, December 22.-Minister
Mendonca, who is in the city, said TO-
day:
II have received cablegramS from
Rio this morning, but have no adviceS
to confirm the report Of Mello's
triumph"
Mr., Mendonca's secretary stated af-
terwards that the Minister did not be-
| lieve the report.

A NOVEL PETITION.
But One that seems Entirely Reasonable
and Worthy OF Consideration.

and worthy OF OonsAueEAtAOu'
TOLEDO, OHIO, December pa
novel petition was filed in the U. $.
Court to-day by the employees OF the
Toledo, st. Louis aud Kansas City rail-
road-Clover Leaf Line-which has
been in the hands OF a receiver since
May %. The petition asks the court
to allow the employees to receive living
wages from the company. It's repre-
sented that since the appointment OF
Receiver Galloway the wages have been
systematically reduced until at present
it is impossible for some to provide FOR
their families. This is the first action
OF the kind ever commenced and the
men say that as the United States Court
would not allow the employees of the
Aun Arbor road to strike last spring,
they have appealed to it for justice,
rather than take the chances of losing
a strike and being out Of employment
for the balance of the winter.

PITTsBURG, PA, December 22.-The
new wage scale at the Homestead steel
works, according to official notice given
to-day, will be ready for the men to
sign on the morning OF December 26th.
1t is practically assured that there
will be general reduction in
the prices for labor paid to
all the tonnage men, hut that the time
workers in the lines where the wages
are not so good will not suffer much of
a cut under the proposed changes 1t
is agreed that the Carnegie Company Is
now paying higher wages than are paid
in the same lines Of work at other mills
in the Pittsburg district aud the man
agement states that the rates must be
equaliZed by reductions here. The
works will smut down tomorrow for
week, during which time it Is expected
that the repairs will be made, the scale
matter settled and the mills ready TO
resume with the opening OF the new
year.
MINERS TO ORGANIZE.
PIrrsBuRe. PA, December 22.-The
bitnminous coal miners OF Clearied,
Cambria, Indiana, Huntingdon, Centre,
Jefferson. Clinton and Bedford counties,
who recently suffered a reduction OF 10
per cent. in the price OF mining, have
taken preparatory steps toward estab-
fishing permanent organization
looking 10 the better protection
OF their interests in the future, A call
has been issued by the Executive Board
of the Check Weighman'S Fund for
mass meeting OF the miners TO be held
at Dubois, Clearfeld county, Wednes-
day, the 27th inst. to form q perma-
nent organization, and at which all the
several Central Pennsylvania districts
will be represented, the basis OF repre-
seutation being one vote for each hun
dred miners.
THINK A STRIKE UNNECESSARY.
PITrsBURG, PA, December 22.-Ths
joint committee OF river and railroad
coal miners held here to-day decided
that a general strike was unnecessary
In view Of the changes wrought within
the last few days Sixty delegates
WcIb DItstuls duu luC IbPOibo buOWNu
that the price demanded (G5 cents per
ton in the rail and 21S cents per bushel
in tie river mines) was being paid with
a few exceptions. The railroad miners
not paying the rate are those AZ Snow
den, Gastonville and Hackett. In
the river district there are four
mines in the fourth pool and
three in the third working at the re-
duced rates. 1t is thought that these
operators can be induced TO meet the
advance made by the others. II the
price cannot be obtained without a
suspension the men will strike. Be-
tween IL, 900 and $4,000 men were rep
resented at the convention.
FURTHER REDUCTIONS NOT EXPECTED.
PITTsBURG, PA, December 22.-Most
OF the Pittsburg mills will shut down
tomorrow until Tuesday. and some do
not expect to resume until the first
week in January. This is done to take
stock. The constantly srecurrlng ru-
mors that additional wage reductions
will be demanded af the new year do
not seem 10 have foundation so far as
Pttsburg district Is concerned.
