PASSED OFF QUIETLY.
The Presidential Election Held Yes
terday i'm Brazil.

The Brazilian elections took place yester-
day and passed off quietly. They were
conducted in entirely honest manner,
neither soldiers nor police being present
at the polls. Trouble had been expected,
but none occurred
No official returns have yet been received
but it seems almost certain that Senior
Prudente de Moraes has been elected pres
ident and Senior Victorino vice presi-
dent. Placards were posted Wednesday
night, without authority, nominating Pres
ident Peixoto for the vice presidency. He
received but few votes.
The elections were suspended in Para,
Desterro and Rio Grande do Sui, owing
to the fact that these places are held by
the insurgents.
Senior Moraes will assume the presiden-
tial office on November J5. 1t is hoped
that the result of the elections will bring
the war to an end.
The foreign men-of-war are all leaving
the harbor on account Of the ravages of
yellow fever and the lack of provisions.
The report that the government feet has
left Bahia is doubted by the officials at
Rio
Prudente de Moraes, who, 1t Is thought
has been elected to succeed Peixoto as pres
ident, is an excellent lawyer and about
fifty years of age He was known, even dur
ing the empire rs an ardent republican.
He is wealthy and lives on his large coffee
plantation at Campenas, in the state of
Sac Paulo. He is now president of the
senate. He is conceded by everyone to be
a man of high principles He was a men,
ber of the first congress of the republic
and it is claimed by his friends that he
would have been elected president in the
place of Fonseca had the vote been a fair
one He did not advocate the abolition
tive, he did not consider the time ripe for
such legislation.

Speech.

The Right Hon. A. J. Balfour. leader of
the conservatives in the house of COM
mons, who was received with loud cheers,
arose to reply to Mr.. Gladstone, when the
latter had concluded his speech as reported
in The Star, and said. among other things,
that the premier's speech was a declara-
ton of war against the ancient constitu-
ton of the realm. Continuing, Mr.. Balfour
asked why the government did not start
the agitation against the house of lords
when the latter rejected the home rule
bill.
That bill, according to Mr.. Balfour con-
WINGED the country that legislation must
be controlled by a chamber which would
not betray them.
When Mr.. Balfour had finished speaking

with the following result: For reaing 213,
against agreeing 81. Majority for agreeing
236.

John Carberry of Newark, n. j., who has
been hiccoughing for fourteen weeks, died
last evening.
When the doctor saw Carberry yesterday
morning the sick man was in such a state
that at short intervals he fell into a stupor.
His pulse was niclering, sometimes no pull
sation at all being diScernibie. The hic-
coughs had even at this low point not
loosened their grip of the unfortunate man,
although the spasms had no violence. He
was given an occasional sip of sherry wine,
which served to prolong life, but only
temporarily.
Carberry's case has become celebrated
and has already found its way into medical
journals. With short intermission the hic-
coughs clung to him since fourteen weeks
ago.
