want senators TO hear him. "All right,
said MIR. Stewart. but n they were mere
they would learn something
"'Fhey will learn something whether
they are here or not" Mr.. Allen remark
ed. and then he went on with his speech
against the repeal bill.
Mr. Allen had not been speaking very
long when the deserted condition OF the
chamber moved Mr.. Petugrew 90 call
attention 20 g. The roll was then called:
and It took fifteen minutes to gather In
the forty-three senator's which a quorum
requires. Mr.. Allen then resumed his
speech; and the quorum faded away
again.
An amusing coIloquy which took the
form OF q catechsm Of finance, took place
between Messrs. Allen and Doph, as 10
the difference between the actual and face
value Of gold and silver coins. Mr. Allen
claimed that the free and unlimited coin
ag' Of any metal made the bullion value
Ct that metal equivalent 10 its coinage
value. Mr.. Dolph regarded that PROPOSE
tion az a very remarkable one, and cited
the fact that under the Bland act when
there was as many siiver dollars coined IN
four months as had been coined in the
preceding eighty years, the market price
o. silver had fallen far below the average
value Of silver. The explanation onered
Of that fact by Mr.. Allen was that there
was a great body Of surplus silver, which
was not admitted TO the mints, and that IL
was that surplus which broke down the
price Mr.. Allison undertook 10 stralehteh
out the tange. He agreed that WIN the
free and unlimited coinage of silver in
cflvpr DllliOD IN 4
dollar and the coined silver dollar would
be Of the same value They would repre-
cent the same thing. But IL the United
States undertook to use both gold and
silver as a measure Of value, then new
question would be raised-the question Of
the ratio between the two. If England
had a ratio Of fifteen to one, and the
United States ratio Of sixteen 20 one
all the gold would so TO one country and
all the silver TO the other.
Mr.. White Dem., La.) also came into
the discussion and asked Mr.. Allen how,
II the depreciation OF silver had been
caused by adverse legislation in the
United States and in India, that evil
could be remedied by partial legislation.
How could it be done without legislation
by all countries concerned?
Mr. Allen replied that the United States
produced forty-six per cent. OF the worlds
silver and that If this government put
the two metals on an equality and gave
free and unlimited coinage to. them, the
owner Of silver bullion in other countries
would not sell It at the present price
because (as Mr.. Allison had admitted
II would be worth its coinage value.
At this point Of the discussion, Mr..
Allen without completing his speech,
yielded to n motion 10 adjourn; and the
Senate at 4 =. NJ. adjourned till Mon
day at II A. NJ

The Decision . Result of Interference Of
Foreign Commsndsrs and Ministers.
A Truce Probable.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Oct THE
most important news concerning the Bra
lillian revolution since Its inception has
been received by the Secretary OF the
Navy in a cable dispatch from Captain
Picking, commanding the United States
cruiser Charleston ut Rio. as follows:
Admiral Mello having been informed
that the government would dismount the
guns in the city. said he would not again
fire upon the place"
This undoubtedly means that the threat
ened renewal OF bombardment OF Rio de
Janelro has been abandoned, and It 10
supposed that a truce between Mello and
Peixotto has been arranged by the CON-
manders of foreign vessels stationed IN
the harbor. The full import of the agree
ment cannot be determined from Captain
Pickng's telegram, but 1t II probable that
its effect will be 20 transfer hostilities
from Rio to other places I'm Brazil. al
though II is not unlikely that II means
the arrangement OF an amlcable agree
ment that will end the war.

From this n can be seen that Il took

minutes 20 seconds TO make the run OF
Is miles to Ieeward--a difference of eight
minutes. six seconds, which was really
the gain OF the Vlgiant as the time OF
both was practically ll'A.
The course from the outer turn had no
windward work In 1t at all but was really
a close reach, as both poats had the "lnd
a little forward OF the beam, IL having
capted to the southwest. It was a
straight sail I'm a smooth sea, and both
yachts made remarkably quick time, very
few of the excursion boats being able to
keen IN with them. The yachts logged at
least twelve knots. and the Naikyrie
showed herself a speedier boat on this
point Of sailing. There was not a change
Of SAT- or the reach home and It was
evident that the Engilshman was rapidly
gaining on the Yankee, and would have
oyertaken her had the course been little
longer. Though the official records show
only a gain OF thirty seconds for the
Vall,vrie. she gained ut least three min
utes but after the Vigilant had crossed
the line the wind sud ienly died away from
a fresh bretze to a light air. so that the
three-minute gain Of the English cutter
VAS reduced to thirty seconds within a
distance Of one-fourth Of n mile.
Though the day was perfect and the
American boat gained an honest victory
il was not a steady wind from start ia
finish, and therefore not a fair test Of the
two boats.
Some facts were ascertained, however
and they are that in light airs the Yigi-
liant Is speedier than the Valkyrie, but in
a fresh breeze ana in a reach the Eng
lish boat is superior. This makes 1t fair
TO presume that the Valkyrie may win

but just as brave. These two are back ed

long. In time his supplies viii give out
and his men will desert Then either he
will do something desperate or a compro-
mise will be effected whereby he can re-
turn honorably to Rio. All talk Of famine
In Rio Is nonsense; there are plenty Of

Of a waiting game with Peixoto."
