SHELLDD TINH AND AGAIN.
The Garrison at Rio Compelled
to Surrender.
MUCH DAMAGE WAS DONE.
The President and the Government
Driven Out.
Large Additions to the Ranks of the In
surgents Almost Hourly Tend to
Show That the Government WIN
Be Surely overthrown.

BUENos AYREs, Sept. 16.-Oficial adj
vices announce the expected lombard
ment of the past few days of Rio Janeiro.
Nichetroy was shelled time and again and
the garrison was finally compelled to sur
render after a gallant resistance. 1t is
reported that after the surrender the gar
rison and the civil guards joined the in
surgents, who have received large addi-
tions to their fleet. The president and
the government were driven out of Rio
and are now encampeG with the loyal
troops at Santa Ana, twelve miles from
Rio, awaiting the rebel attack. Never
theless, the president is not disheartened.
Congress has passed bill sustaining
him. The rebel fleet now numbers nine
vessels. The rebels were reinforced by
the naval forces of Cabras island in Rio
bay. Fort CabraS was one of the prIncl-
pal defences of Rio prison on the island.
in which most OF the high class and po-
l1tical prisoners were confined. They
have been liberated and joined the rebels.
Fort Vlllegagnon, is neutral, but it is
probable the garrison will soon join The
insurgents. Other advices say they have
already done so and the rebels are having
everything their own way. Fort Santa
Cruz is still loyal. The insurgents are
incensed at its resistance and propose to
reek vengeance on the garrison when it
surrenders.
The moderation of the insurgents so far
is largely due to the fact that the foreign
war ships are a restraining influence.
The garrison at Fort Santa Cruz must
soon surrender, being short of provisions.
Private advices go further, and
say the rebels have landed strong
forces and Saken possession of
the custom house. The insurgents
are getting re-inforcements from all sides,
money and provisions being placed at
their disposal. They are confident of ul-
! innate success. President Peixotto has
endeavored to make terms with the in
surgents, but received the reply that
nothing but unconditional surrender
would be accepted.
The damage done by the bombardment
of Rio and Nichetroy is much greater than
at first believed. The insurgents are now
preparing to march upon Santa Anna and
try to capture the president.

DEAD ON THE PRAIRIE.
Three Bodies Epund After the Rush Was
Over.

ORLANDO, Oklahoma, Sept. 16.-
Twenty-Five thousand men and women
started into the strip from here today.
Hundreds went in on the trains, which
were jammed, but the grand rush was by
horse and wagons. Among those who
were witnesses OF the run were Governor
Renfrew, of Oklahoma, A. P. Swineherd,
inspector general of the land Office, Judge
Wollack, special examiner OF land offices,
and Judge Lowe, secretary of the terri
tory. The Santa Fe special trains got al
most an even start with horsemen and
pedestrians. Five thousand made the
trip by rail. Wharton ana Perry were
the favored townsites and tonight each
has population of over 5000.
Following the excursion trains, the
freight trains hauled great quantities OF
household goods and lumber to the new
towns. Temporary residences and shops
were made of tents, but the canvas
houses will soon give way TO wooden
structures.
Judge Wollack, special agent land office,
has advices showing that the number OF
people who made the run into Cherokee
strip exceeds all expectations. Fully
100, 600 started in the race and estimating
the families of married men at one to
each certificate bearer the Cherokee
strip tonight has population of 200, GEO.
Advices to Judge Wollack show the racers
were divided about as follows among the
border towns: Arkansas City, 10000;
Orlando, $4,000; Caldwell, 10000. Hen
nessey, 10, 600; saltwater, 10 600; Klowa.
8, 900; Hunneweli, 5000; other points,
4, 600.
Near BIackbear, northeast of here, the
body of James Reardon of Milford, Mass,
was found on the prairie after the rush.
He had been stabbed to death and the
weapon was LETT sticking in his breast.
Further north the body of w. d. Blake,
supposed to be from Gainesville, Tex,
was found shot through the heart. 1t is
not known whether he vas murdered or
was shot by accident. The body OF
Madeline Granger of Terre Haute, Ind.
was also found on the prairie. There
were no marks of violence, and it is be-
lieved she died from natural causes.

PEIoxoTo IN A BAD FIX.
Many Men Were Killed During the Bonn
bardment

NEW YORK, Sept. is. - A Herald's
Buenos Ayres dispatch says news was re-
ceived from the Brazilian revelation to-
day unfavorable to President Peioxoto
1t is reported the naval squadron, sent
to help the revolutionary uprising in the
Rio Grande Do Sui, has rebelled. The Of
ficers refuse to take orders from anyone
except Admiral Mello, who is in COM
mand of the rebel fleet. The lombard
ment of Nictheroy is concluded. The
ships revolving squadron attackeds and
silenced the forts. President Peixoto
threw many officers of the army into Jail
to prevent them joining the revolution
lists. The revolutionists now control the
arsenal and the custom house. Reports
of the secession of the states of Bahia and
Pernambuco are confirmed.
Admiral Mello now has a SQUADRON of
thirty war ships and merchant steamers,
which are all well supplied.
President Pelxoto, 1t is reported, retired
to Santa Ana with the troops still loyal to
him. 1t is expected he will join Castilhas
in Porto Allegro, where be will make
final stand for the retention of power.
The damage resulting from the bonn
bardment was much more serious than
heretofore reported. Many persons were
killed, including an Italian sailor for
whom the government paid 5000 in
demnity. One German was also reported
killed. In repulsing the attempted land
ing at Nictheroy, twenty policemen were
killed.
Admiral MelIo proposes to block
ade the Rio and starve the
capital into submission by cut
ting off all supplies. The forts
answered the fire from the vessels vigor-
ously. Many rebel officers and men were
killed. The attitude of the foreign war
ships cannot be understood. The Tira-
denies still remains outside of Monte
video; nc one aboard is able
to manipulate ner guns. The United
States cruiser Charleston will sail
from Montevldeo for Rio on Monday.

Admiral Tryon's dispatch box, which
was found floating after the Victoria had
foundere6s was specially made to contain
the code of signals. OF course it was de-
sired to keep this code secret, so, in
order to provide agains the risks OF acci-
dents, the box was lined with lead and
perforated with many holes TO in
sure its at once sinking TO the bottom of
the sea If it happenedtoc come into the wa
ter. It would be interesting to learn who
were the designers OF this box which, be-
ing specially CONSTRUCTED to sink, fioated
safely and is now at the admiralty, a most
practical proof CT the sallibility of our ex-
perts London Truth.

Two Hun drcd of Them Take Possession
of Perry, o. t.

PERRY, o. T., Sept. 16.-This town,
the county seat of county 20" and the
principal townsite on the Santa Fe road,
fell to the hands of .ssooners." Seven
minutes after noon horsemen were seen
riding in this direction from the Flint
hills over towards the east, and five min
utes later 200 horsemen, under the leader
ship OF jim Masterson, mounted on Bill
Dalton's famous horse, occupied lots
surrounding the land office where the
business portion of the town will doubt
less be built. That they were Fsooners,"
who had been hiding in the Flint hills,
was absolutely certain, for they could not
ride nine miles in twelve minutes.
At 12:45 the honest boomers began to
come in. They, too, were mounted on
horses and beat the Santa Fe excursion
trains eight minutes. Early this morn
ing the troops discovered a score Of
s'boomers, among them Mrs. Silver,
known all over the west as the proprie-
tress of dance halls in mining camps and
border towns. The troops brought them
to the guard house here and kept them
until late this afternoon.

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-Professor Briggs,
of heresy trial fame, was given rousing
welcome today in the parliament of re-
ligions, and his liberal sentiments were

on the falli5ility of the Bible. Among
other speakers were Mgr. Seton, Rabbi
Gothiel and Rev. Munger. Edward
Everett Hale presided at the congress of
the Unitarians. the Theosophists,

GUS Trouble Ere Long.
BERLIN, Sept. 16.-Emperor Francis
Joseph left Vienna this afternoon to at
tend the Hungarian army msneuyres,
which take place in the presence of the
Duke of Connaught. This is interpreted
in certain quarters in Germany to mean
a consolidation of the existing entente
between Great Britain and the driebund.
This is especially so, as the DUKES visit
to Austria viii soon be followed by a
visit of the British Mediterranean
squadron to Italy. In anticipation OF
the visit of the Russian fleet to Toulon,
the large towns OF France are already
making preparations for the reception of
their Russian allies.
Russia is not pleased at the extent to
which the Frenchmen are going to
demonstrate their affection for the car
and his subjects. Tt is claimed by Rus
sian statesmen of opinion that too much
demonstration would be irritating to
Germany, and as the new rifles for the
Russian army are not all finished and
new loan has yet to be raised, Russia is

Could Not BE Matched.

A well-known music-ba comedian
once entered hatter's establishment in
Regent street to have his hat ironed.
While standing bare-headed in the shop
a certain bishop came in, and mistaking
him for one Of the assistants, handed him
his hat with the remark: Have you a
hat like that?''
The comedian took the hat, which was
of the shape usually worn by bishops,
and after turning it about and apparently
well examining it, he handed it back.
"No," he said, ''but if had, I'd be
hanged if I'd wear it. Tit Bits.

CALDWELL, Sept. 16.-At all stations be-
tween Caldwell and Wichita, on the Rock
Island road, hundreds OF boomers are lett
because OF the inability of the trains to
carry them. It became necessary to lock
the car doors and leave the unfortunates
to shift for themselves.
The first train into the Cherokee dis
trict was run by j. q. Colburn, who has
been thirty three years in the service OF
the Rock Island road. The train was
composed of thirty-f five stock cars and
every foot of space was taken. After
much putting and snorting the train
moved slowly out, one minute after the
guns were fred.

wildly and waving hats, nandkerchiefs

The Actual Bombardment.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-Last night
Secretary Gresham received the following
message from Minister Thompson, dated
at Petropolis, suburb of Rio Janeiro:
81 have been advised that all merchant
vessels have been ordered by the revolu-
tionary squadron to move further up the
bay, apparently to give the rebels a
chance to lombard the city without dam
aging the merchant vessels. This is
thought to indicate that the actual bonn
bardment of Rio will begin today.''

PrTTsBURe, Pa, Sept. 16.-The vote of
the Amalgamated lodges on the question
Of accepting the 10 per cent. reduction in
the bar guide and ten inch departments
were counted tonight. To the surprise
of the national officers, who advocated an
acceptance of the reduction, it was I'M
favorable. The manufacturers insist up
on reduction and many, particularly
il Sherango and Mahoning valleys, want
an all around cut of 20 to % per cent.
They will start the mills non-union, and
