MELLo FIRST.
Brazilian Government Boats Will Then Try Con.
clusions Win CANA.

WAsHINGToN, Dec. 27-Minister Men
donca Of Brazil believes that the crisis of
the Brazilian revolution Is at hand, and
that the decisive stroke will be made this
week
He says that the two great ironslads Of
the rebel admiral, Mello, and the flotilla
of little torpedo craft hastily impro-
vised by Presidents Peixoto are rapidly
nearing each other. The minister says
that collision IL almost certain to occur
before next Monday.
He recognizes that the little torpedo and
dynamite vessels are tremendously over
matched by the rebel ship, but he counts
much on the ability OF the small boats 20
maneuver quickly and to discharge their
novel explosives with effect. In some re-
spects the engagement will be similar TO
that between the big Confederate ram
Merrimac and the original monitor.
Senor Mendonca is hopeful and conf
dent that the Mello fleet will be defeated,
and that the Peixoto ships will then be
able 20 turn their attention TO the other
rebel, Admiral Cana, who is in Rio har-
Dor menacing the city

DECISIVE ACTION
In Connection With the New York Custom
House Refund Investigation.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Assistant Secre-
tary Hamlin yesterday telegraphed Col
lector Kilbreth at New York 20 suspend
all reliquidations in tobacco refund
cases under all acts Of congress, and all
reliquidations Of other merchandise un-
der the act Of March 3, 1888. This is the
first result OF the New York customs
house refund Investigations.
The treasury officials recently have had
brought 10 their attention the fact that
there is now pending before the United
States supreme court case involving
similar questions, and they prefer 10
await decision before authorizing re-
funds. Assistant Secretary Hamln is
not yet ready 10 make any statement Of
the extent to which irregularities in pre-
pairing vouchers has proceeded, or 10 indi-
cate the amount OF money that the gov
ernment has lost. But his action in sus-
pending all refunds is regarded as sgnii-
cant.

DEBATE TO RUN ON.
Vote on the Tariff Bill Not Likely to Be

WAsHNGToy, Dec. 27.-The program
upon which the tariff debate will be con-
tinued, as outlined by members of the
ways and means committee, does not in
clude fixing q time for the taking Of a
vote as soon ~ the bill comes before the
house. II IL the present intention to
allow the debate TO run on for some time,
and n II then becomes apparent that no
vote can be reached, or that the bill can
not be reasonably considered by para
graphs, the committee on rules will be
asked to fix . time for consideration,
under the fve-minute rule, and a final
vote. 1t Is believed by the Democratic
members that, when there is general un-
derstanding that no final vote is to be
taken until the last of January, there
will be no difficulty In securing such
vote by An agreement by both sides.

AID Of GOV{RNME NJ
To Further The klCara-
guam Canal Project.
CAPITAL NEEDED BAD, Y,
To Afford All Facilities Fo Comm rec
Between the Atlantic and Pacific.

WAsHIYGToN, Dec. IA measure au-
thorizing the appointment of joint com
mission TO inquire into the practicability
of the proposed Nicaragua ship canal TO
connect the two oceans has been given
careful attention by the house committee
on interstate and foreign commerce
The same subject is also under con-
sideration 10y the senate committees on
foreign relations and commerce. Senator
Morgan, who has taken the deepest inter
est in this great work, has prepared an
elaborate report showing the importance
of the construction of the Nicaraguan
canal. Senator Sherman, who is a mem
Der Of the same committee, is also m
earnest advocate OF government aid in be-
half Of this great work.
In Need Of Aid.
Both Senators Morgan and Sherman
maintain that it is the duty of the
United States 20 lend all proper aid to the
construction OF this great highway 10 the
Pacific. They especially regard il Of
great importance, as the French Panama
scheme has totally failed, entailing great
loss upon all its holders of securities
They do not think that IL will ever be re-
vived. Therefore they regard It as incum-
bent upon American capitalists, with the
encouragement of the government, to
construct some great inter-oceanic high
way which, while affording all facilities
for commerce, will be the least expensive
Eads Railway Has Friends.
The friends Of the old Eads isthmian
railway through Mexico, by way Of the
isthmus of Tehuantepec, have appeared
before both committees OF congress, and
have asked that the scope Of the measure
under consideration, which Is the APP
pointment of joint commission, be so
enlarged as 60 include an examination
and report upon the isthman ship rail
way project, which was devised by Cap
tain Eads, and the practicabiity of which
was established before his death
Cheaper Than the Cansi.
Ex-Representative Rice OF Maine, and
General Andrews, who constru ted under
Captain Eads' direction the st. Louis
bridge and the jetties at the mouth of the
Mississippi, have made Arguments before
both committees OF congress In support Of
the investig ation OF the practcability Of
the ship rail way project. The mmittee is
disposed to enlarge the inve,tigation so
rs to include both the canal and the rail
way. II Is claimed that the snip railway
can be built for one-quarter the estimated
cost of the canal.
