Special TO the REcoRD-UNIoN.
LONDON, Dec. 5.-The Times tomorrow
will publish the following, dated Novem-
ber l4th, from Its correspondent at Rio de
Janer2. In reviewing the causes leading
up to tne revolt, the correspondent says:
With the fall of Dom Pedro the aristoc-
racy withdrew all connection with the
Government, and the wealthy men in Of
fee were replaced by needy adventures.
whose sole object has been personal gain.
President PeiXoto opened his administra-
ton well by cancelling the decree per-
mitting the Bank of the Republic to con-
tinue the emission of notes, which had
been done in the interest OF ring spec
ulators. But the hopes of reform were
soon disappointed when he began remov-
ing the Governors of the States in an un-
derhand manner. Thence onward he
took the bit in his mouth and made a
series of blunderS, and set aside the spirit
and letter of the Constitution IN every
way.
The correspondent then proceeds to
show President PeiXoto's alleged breach
OF faith regarding Rio Grande do Sui by
prosecuting those who had been engaged
in the revolt, which action led to the
Presidents rupture with Admiral de
Mello, who resigned the Office OF Minis
ter of Marine in consequence. Much
sympathy, the correspondent adds, was
shown in Rio de Janeiro for the people of
Rio Grande do Sui who had been en-
gagged in the revolt and popular sub
scrIptions were opened between May and
August, 1923, for the relief of the insur-
gent sick. These subscriptions were
crowned with success, and it is said the
constantly swelling fund was very gall
ing TO President Peixoto and led to it's
prompter, DR.. Govern, being imprisoned.
Coming rapidly to the history of the
present time, the Times correspondent
states that on November 9TH the lnsur-
gent leaders held conference on board
the warship Aquidaban and discussed
the question OF re- establishing the mon
archy in Brazil. 1t was then shown that
the States OF Pernambuco, Bahia. Santa
Catarina, Rio Grande and majority of the
population of Minas Geraes, san Paulo
and an important section of the city of
Rio de Janeiro favored a return to mon
archy. 1t was therefore decided that the
efforts of the insurgents be directed to
that end. The fact that General Pogo,
well-known monarchist, was in COM
mand Of q division under President
L
opponent OF republicanism, commands
the National Guard, was positive proof
that there was no intention when the
revolus4Dnary movement first broke out
of any attempt to re-establish the mon
archy. 1t was an atter-thought, engen-
dered by the wishes of the people in vari-
Gus parts of Brazil, and it is yet to be
seen whether the insurgents will make it
the aim of the present struggle. A Bra
lillian in high office has lust remarked to
the Times correspondent that he believed
the end of the war would see the finish of
the pr8tOrian system of government in
Brazil, no matter which side won.
DYNAMITE SCARE IN LONDON.
Police Find Can Containing Twenty
-Four Pounds OF the Explosive.
LONDON, Dec. Sin connection with
the arrest of a man at Hampstead yes
terday the police searched the rooms of a
man named Schneider, just arrived from
the United States. He saw them coming
and decamped. They found in his rooms
can containing twenty-four pounds of
dynamite in cakes. Before opening it
was immersed in q clstern, where it fixed
and toamed over the sides of the recep-
tacle. 1t was then dispatched to the Gov
ernment explosive laboratory. There it
was ascertained that it contained fuses
and all the apparatus necessary for an
explosion, and that it would have had
terribly destructive effect. The police ex-
pect 70 make large number OF arrests in
connection with the affair, as they believe
they have diScovereda a genuine dynamite
plot
The Irish Nationalists scout the idea
that Schneider had anything to do with
the Irish physical force section, and say
his name is enough TO stamp him as a
German anarchist probably from New
York or Chicago, supplying the anarch-
lists in France, Austria or Spain with
explosives.
The Evenjng Standard adds to the ex-
element by announcing that the police
have discovered several bombs III q swell
cafe in the West End.
THE MATTER EXPLAINED.
LONDON. Dec. 5.-The following ex-
planatlon of the dynamite scare was
given tonight: Many snyder mot Schnei-
der) in whose apartments at Hampstead
the explosive was found, was the man
aging director of the Snyder Dynamite
Projectile Company, with an Office i'll
Chancery Lane. He was in arrears for
rent at his lodgings in Hampstead, and the
landlord devied an execution. Among
the articles seized was trunk of explos-
ives, many photographs OF gun expert
ments and the prospectus OF the COM
pany, including an article in the London
Times, printed five years ago, which de-
described Snyders invention as likely TO
render the conditions OF warfare appall-
ing. 1t is supposed that the dynamite
found in Snyder's effects was used by
him as business sample.
