A RUCTlON NEAR RIO

New Fleet aud Engage Admiral Mello's
Squadron In q Battle to Decide the Re-
bellion.
ToULON, Nov. 1O.-The commander
of the Brazilian warship Riachuelo'
has left for Paris to take the place OF
the Brazilian minister, who has been
summoned to Rio Janeiro.
Twelve Brazilian officers leave La
scyne to-day for Marseilles. where
they will embark on the Espagne and
Montevideo. These officers are to as
sist in manning Peixoto's new fleet
which is preparing to attack Admiral
Mello, and fight what is expected to
be the decisive battle of the Brazilian
rebellion.
Peixoto, Brazilian officers here are
informed, has small feet at Monte
video, the most important ship of which
is the unarmored gunboat Tiradentes,
and the other boats loyal to Peixoto
have been unable to get out of the Rio
de la Plata and put to sea. She is
closely watched by Mello's big battle
ship Republica. Officers here say the
Tiradentes and her mates will endeavor
to dodge the Republica and assemble
at some loyal port in the north of Bra
zil. there to be joined by the battle
ship Riachuelo, the protected cruiser
Benjamin Constant and the war-ships
which Peixoto's agents have bought in
the United States. Then this new
Brazilian feet will sail for Rio and en-
gage Mello, when the biggest naval
battle ever fought in South American
waters may occur.

Years Aeo-Conjecture ~ to the ldenti-
" OF the Remains.
CENrRALIA, Ill. Nov. 10.-Wednesday
evening, while some hands were dredg-
ing an abandoned pond on the Alex;
McClelland farm, 8 miles north OF this
city, they unearthed the skeleton OF q
man, which lay under eighteen inches
of sediment in the middle of the pond.
The body had been carefully weight
ed to the bottom. while the pond YET
contained water, and the legs OF the
dead man had been staked down with
short wooden pins. All the flesh had
disappeared and nothing but the skcle-
ton and a bunch of gray hair remained.
An old leather pocket-boolk and por-
tions of garments were found, but were
very much rotted.
1t is thought the corpse must have
been deposited there over decade of
years ago.
Alex. McClelland, the former proprie-
tor of the farm, has been missing for
over ten years, and some are of the
opinion that he was foully dealt with,
and hidden in the pond.
Another version of the affair is that
the remains are those Of a man whosN
name is forgotten here and who came
to Centralia about fifteen years ago,
from the east and mysteriously disap-
peared. His friends in New York state
claimed that he had fallen heir to
large estate there, and came here in
search of him, but failed to get any
trace of his whereabouts The coroner
is now investigating the case.

Ex-PRESIDENT HARRISON.

Talks on the Results of the Recent Eleo-

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 9.-Ex-
President Harrison talked freely to a
United Press reporter last evening
upon the result of yesterdays election:
II find not only qualification and
comfort, but downright rejoicing in
the handsome result" said he. THE
republican triumph was SO sweeping
and so general that the notion that
local causes might have figured largely
in the result is hardly tenable. Every
thing went repub lican-that is, every
thing in the free part of the coun-
try, showing very clearly that general
causes were at work. The result
demonstrates that the faith OF the
people in the American industrial sys-
tenn was not lost, but only weakened,
and has been renewed with redoubled
strength. The chief cause was un-
doubtedly the general industrial de-
preston. The people have had pre-
sented to them sharp comparison be-
tween the two systems. They have
been brought, within year, from a
condition of the highest prosperity to
what we have now presented to us on
all sides, not by the operation of diff
ferent system, but by the anticipation

that the shining guns of the soldiers

back and the prisoner was escorted to

Women and children crowded the side
