LONDON. Dec. The Times tomorrow
will publish the following: Rio Janeiro,
via. Montcvideo, Dec. S.-The government
troops have occupied Armacao, which was
abandoned by tho insuraent sailors. sun
day afternoon the insurGcnt launches at
tempted To land force of men at Armn.
Gao under cover of the guns of tho war
ships Trajano, Jupiter and Aquidaban.
They were resisted by the government
soldiers, who KEEP, upa heavy rifle fire.
The sailors were unable to land and re-
tired with n loss of one killed and three
wounded. The samo day there was
heavy artillery fire from the government
foris on Fort villegaigon. The fire OF the
latter was well directed and many shells
burst within the walls of Santa Cruz and
Sac Joao. vilicsaignon was also hit by
many shells and one man was killed and
two wounded.
TN Monday 400 government soldiers
from the shelter Of the walls and houses
at Armacao again successfully opposed an
attempt of the insurgent sailors to secure
a landing. Tho insurgcnt ships fired
upon Armacao an hour and thou parties
in launches made several attempts to
land. The fire of the government forces
was SO heavy that they were compelled to
return TO their ships. The sailors lost
four killed aud i've wounded and heavy
casualties are reported among the troops.
The artillery fire OF the forts continued on
Monday. Rifiemen on the shore in front
OF Santa Luzia fired upon the gunners at
Niiiegaigon and wounded one. VILE

suggestion ho made, il is evident that he
expected that congress would deal with
the matter. A member OF the committee
said the president would not think OF
using force while congress is In session.
40 TINT would be an act OF war. There
had been a theory advanced that
after hearing again from Minister
Willis and learning positively that
tho queen can't be restored, except by
the use OF United States troops, the
president will present TO congress the
case of the queen as a wronGed monarch
whose government was overthrown by this
government, and assert IL Is now tho duty
OF tho United States to restore tho former
conditions, even by using force. This Is
the idea advanced by the friends OF the
administration. There will no great or
position in the house committee on for
eign affairs to the resolution OF Hit of
Illinois, on the ground that II would not
he right, in view OF the further promised
communication from the executive on the
subject, for tho house To give expression
to the sentiments contained in tho Hit
resolutions. Hit will make every effort
to secure o favorable report from tho
committee on his resolutions, but as II
will take at least three democratic votes
to bring about such n result, il Is doubtful
IL he will be successful.
Some members of the senate liave been
asking themselves what tho senate will do
in case Cleveland should fail to take
notice of the request for information con-
cerning Hawaii. but most Of them spoken
TO ON the subject say II is not probable
that such contingency will arise. They
admit, however, that il would not surprise
them IL Cleveland declined TO transmit
further information until after the next
steamer shall arrive from Honolulu.

WASHINGTON, Doc. 7.--Acting Secretary
Curtis of the treasury department has in
timated plainly that the government
would interfere should an attempt bo
made to give practical effect to tho sug-
gestion Of Governor Waite OF Colorado 10
make silver legal tender and provide for
free coinage ut the state mint. Curtis said
Governor Waite knew very we'll that the
United States alone has the right to coin
money and that coinage by the state would
be contrary to the constitution. Tho at
torncy general, he added, would be asked
for advice as TO the proper course TO take
should the occasion require action, which
he did not think would be needed.

Dear Sir: l have the honor to submit

The four ward schools are situated in

well heated and we'll ventilated.
The high school is held in the Within

There are eleven teachers employed

the end of the year 1898.

OFFICIAL GOSSIP.
Paragraphs of Moment Gathered from
Sundry Sources About the
Capital.

On the application of H. c. Kinsell, ap-
pointed sheriff by the county board,
Judge Seeds at 2 O'Clock this afternoon
heard the argument of Q. A. Spiess, as to
the law points involved in the question
as to whether the court should approve
the bond. Mr.. Spiess took the ground
that approval of the bond was merely
ministerial duty imposed upon the
court, and that the best evidence Of ap-
polntment was appointment itself, and
that no commission from the governor is
necessary. The court took the matter
under ADJUSTMENT.
There was but one! complaint of viola
ton of the Sunday law, made at the re-
cent term of court at Roswell, and the
offense was so slight that Judge Freeman
directed the jury to acquit. When Judge
Freeman began to move for the enforce
ment of the law the saloons and gambling
places were all open onSunday. By firm
ness and consideration the court has been
enabled to almost completely secure
obedience to the law without imposing Sc
we're punishment, and there is no longer
any open disregard of it anywhere in the
valley.-Eddy Argus.
On certificate from the penitentiary
board the governor has restored to citl-
zenship the following named convicts

| tence: p. Z. O'Donnell, Grant county,
ten years for murder; Richard Cordell
Santa Fe county, two years for larceny;
Dudley Smith, Lincoln county, three
years for cattle stealing, Carpio Moreno,
Bernalillo county, three years for grand
I larceny.

tions will be sent here for distribution by

THE EDDY DAMS.
Not Daylight Enough for the Build.
ers Hence They Use Head
lights.

Down in the lower Pecos valley the
people hold an irrigation convention
from one years end to the other, hence
their prosperity. The Argus says:
"a night shift will at once be employed
on the Six Mile dam, SIX headlights be-
ing used to illuminate the grounds. As
sistant General Manager Blodgett states
that by January there will be three feet
of water turned into the canal, although
the dam may not be completed until a
month later. That this can be done is
due to the assistance of the Seven Rivers
dam, which will hold the river back
while the lower dam is being thrown
across. In day or two the Seven Rivers
dam will begin holding back water. The
big dam there will be finished by Deem
Der 1. The water will be allowed to
come down only in quantities easily
handled and diverted into the distribut-
ing canal.

Plenty Of Land.

If every foot of land ID New Mexico
which it will ever be possible to irrigate
by means of storage reservoirs was put
under cultivation there would still be
room for more live stock on the high
mesas and plains than are at present oc-
cupying them. AS soon as the cattle are
matured they will be put on the farm to
fatten, preparatory to their shipment to
market, and the range will thereby be re.
lieved of its surplus; then such things as
drouths and hard times would be laughed
at-Ex.
