A TRUCE At RIO JAME|RC,
Peixoto Agrees to Dismount the
Guns in the City.
Al aistics Probably Brought About
by Foreign Ad1nlrRis.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 7.-Important
news concerning the Brazilian revolu-
ton has been received by the Secretary
Of the Navy in a cable despatch from
Capt. Picking. the Commander of the
United States cruiser Charleston. at
Rio. as follows.
admiral Mello. having been Informed
that the Government would dismount
guns in the city. said he would not again
fire upon the place"
This undoubtedly means that the
threatened renewal OF the bombardment
of Rio Janeiro has been abandoned.
1t is supposed that the truce between
Melio and Peixto was arranged by the
commanders of the foreign vessels sta,
toned In the harbor.

WEBER'S LOST STORE.
Klein Accomplished His Scheme
by Perjury, Says Weber.
Weber's Notice Of Suit Was Eject
ment Into the Street.
Never Hoard OF tho Man Who APP
peared as Creditor.

Frank Klein, a tea salesman. OF LIS
Duane street, was arrested this morning
by Officer McGuff1n, of the Jefferson
Market Police Court, IN a warrant Ia
sued by Justice Koch. charging him with
perjury. He was taken to court and re-
manded for examination.
The complainant against Klein Ia
John Weber. owner of several tea stores
in this city, who alleges that Klcins
made a false affidavit, which led to the
closing UP OF his business.
Young Weber has been In his present
place Of business, Az Eighth avenue.
for over two years, but long before that
he was well known in the tea trade,
having occupied other stores during tho
past eight years. A few months ago
Weber bought a quantity. of tea and
176 and l7s Duane street, accepting the
terms OF the wholesale house to pay the
amount ninety days after date. Weber
owes the wholesale house something less
thar 800, but under the ninety-day rule.
he says. this cannot be demanded for
some time.
on the afternoon OF Sept Is Weber
was surprised to see a couple of deputy
sherifs walk into the store and take
possession under a writ OF attachment
Issued by Chief Justice Ehrlich. of the
City Court. At the same time he was
served with a summons in q sui,
brought by Klein to recover s452.OS due
the Potter Parlin Company. 1t was thu
first intimation Weber had that the
wholesale house contemplated bringinR
suit. He had never heard of Klein III
his life. The deputy sherins would not
allow Weber to- carry on business IneN
jacob Wolf, into the street and closed
UP the place. p y ",
Weber hasten.d to his lawyer. Ed.
the latter procured a copy, OF the afi
davit Upon which Klein had secured th'
attachment. 1t is stated that the fotte

CURED for defendant. was told tina
though 1 had seen him leave the stor,
through a rea. entrance. ! ran into the
street after him and demanded to know
what he meant by such conduct"
Weber says he read all this with
amazement. for he lac never seen Kleir
In his life; therefore. had no conversation
with him. He had no intention of run
seriously thinking Of disposing Of prop
erty In Elizabeth, N. j., worth 100000 81
as to enlarge his business here.
AS to my running away from TIL
Weber to an Evening world'' reporter
you can examine the place yourself
There is no back door Of any kind :,
the store"
Lawyer Huerstel at once embodied al
these denials in an affidavit which Webe'
swore to. and on this an APPLICATION wa.
made to Justice Fitzimors to vacat'
the attachment. That was on Sept. 81
but in spite of the denials the motion
was denied without costs.
Blocked at every turn by legal ma
chinery, he decided after consultation
with his lawyer to seek the aid OF tn
criminal courts. 1t was then that
warrant for Klein's arrest for perjur!
was arranged for. 1t was obtained from
Justice Koch in Jefferson Market Cour
thts morning.
