Eleven Hundred Lives Lost.
New YORK, Nov. 1.-The Hesaid'S
Montevideo dispatch says: Brazilian
Minister Monteclro denies the reported
sinking of the transport Rio de Janeiro
by the Republica. He says the Rio de
Janeiro has been anchored off Rio
Grande DoSul for the last two months.
An important newspaper in Buenos
Ayres, says it has information from a
trustworthy source that the catastrophe
really happened and that LOO men
we're drowned. 1t says the Rio De
Janeiro was on her way to Santos, car
rying LOO armed men to aid Peixoto
from the province OF Rio Grande Do
Sol. She was met by tine insurgent
cruiser Republica and was called on to
surrender. The request was not ac-
coded to and both vessels prepared for
fight. The Republica followed her
prey until night fall, when increasing
her speed she rammed the Rio Janeiro
in the dark splitting her athwartships
and the Rio Janeiro sank near Santos
shortly afterwards. Although the crew
Of the Republica tried to save some OF
the sinking men they were unable to
rescue any one according to this author

Word pictures, however, enable us to
form tolerable clear conception OF
Lobengula. He is now an enormously
lat old man of sixty years Of age. His
height is not more than five feet eleven
inches, but owing to his excessive stout
ness he seems to be shorter than he is
in reality. The descriptions OF him re-
call passage in Judges, which describes
how Eglon, the king OF Moab, a very Fat
man, met his death by the dagger OF
Ehud. When Lobengula sits upon his
biscuit box receiving his visitors, he
rests his hands upon his thighs,
which are almost covered by the
protuberant paunch. Notwitbstand-
ing his corpulence. he is, accord
ing to all observers, not an un-
dignitied monarch. He used to wear
breeches and dirty coat, but he has
long since reverted to the more pictur-
esque costume OF his oAn people. When
in full dress he wears a broad-brimmed
black felt hat with BUNCH of monkey
skins round his waist and sword by
his side. Sometimes he variegates this
by twisting some blue calico round his
shoulders. When he danced-which
was in his younger days, for he is now
too fat and equity for that exercise-he
was dressed in monkey skins and black
ostrich feathers.

Chicago, ILL, Nov. III. Grandville
Gray, said to be the business manager
of the Labor DAY annual, Philadelphia
publication, was brought to this city,
accompanied by a Central station detec-
tive, last evening to answer charge OF
bigamy, after having been indicted by
the grand jury. lie was arrested in
Philadelphia last week.
Attracted by the Worlds Fair, Gray
left his business duties in Philadelphia
and came to Chicago early in July. One
evening soon after his arrival he was
sauntering through the Electricity
building admiring the illumination.
It was then that he met Miss Lille
Wickins, prepossessing young lady
who lived with her parents on Newport
avenue, Lake view. She, in company
with lady friend, was inspecting the
exhibits, when Gray, according to his
story, volunteered some explanation
with regard to certain electrical con-
trivance. The explanation soon grew
into conversation. Gray continued to
admire the beauties OF the fair in COM
pany with the two women, and that
night he accompanied them home. The
next day hn again sought Miss Wilkins
company, aud the two went to the ialr.
Then began their love making. Gray
was tifty.one years old and the Wilkins
girl was only tweuty-one, but he was n
man OF a pleasant disposition, and she
did not tire OF his company.
About a week after she mad met
Gray Miss Wilkins approached her
parents on the subject OF marriage. ii.
Grandville Gray was her choice, and
from what she had heard him say she
believed that he was a prominent man
in Philadelphia, and she fancied herself
in luxurious home in the eastern city.
She praised him before her parents,
but they objected to marriage on so
short an acquaintance. Finally, how
ever, their consent was gained, and the
happy couple were married July 10,
after an acquaintance oil less than two
weeks.
