THE BRAZIL REVOLT.
Da Cana and His Officers Depart
From Rio.

La GdHit anu Ills Ou1cePS Depart
From Rio.
Copyrighted, 1894, by the Associated Press.l
Rio DE JANEIRo, March 1S.-Judging
from the course of events here. it is
thought by impartial observers that the
Portuguese Government does not intend
to honor the request made upon it for the
surrender of Admiral Da Cana. Da
Cana took refuge on the Portuguese COR
vctte Mindello when the insurrection
collapsed. President PeiXoto demanded
that the Admiral and the officers with
him be delivered iuto his hands. The
Portuguese Minister declined to order the
commander of the Mindello to surrender
the fugitives, and Peixoto appealed, it is
said, to the Portuguese Government to
instruct its Minister to order the sur
render of the insurgent officers.
Whether reply has been received to
the request or not cannot be definitely
stated but this afternoon the Mindello
and the Albuquerque, another Portu-
guese warsnlp, having on board Admiral
da Cana and seventy of his officers, put
to sea. 1t had been thought in some
quarters that if the vessels attempted to
leave the bay with the fugitives on board
trouble would ensue. There was not,
however, the slightest opposition to their
departure, and as matter of fact,
trouble from this source was never prob
able. The destination of the warships is
not known. 1t is conjectured that they
will 90 south to Montevideo and land the
insurgent officers there. If they are
landed at Montevideo they can easily, if
they are so disposed, join the insurgents
in San Paulo and Rio de Sui, who are still
in armed opposition to the Government.
The fact that Admiral Da Cana and his
officers have succeeded in getting out of
the bay is a matter of great rejoicing
among their friends here. There is no
doubt in the minds of anybody that had
the Admiral been surrendered to the
Government his trial by drum head
court martial would have quickly fol-
lowed. There could have been only one
result of trial Of this kind, and that
would have been sentence OF death.
Yellow fever in Rio is epidemic. The
death average is so day.
BUENos AYREs, March 1S.-Advices
received here from Rio are to the effect
that Admiral Da Cana and his officers
will be conveyed to this port by the Por-
tuguese corvette Mindello. President
PeiXoto has ordered the Brazilian Min
lister at Buenos Ayres to demand that the
Government of the Argentine Republic
consider Admiral Da CANA and his
officers as pirates and not allow them to
disembark.

ALL QUIET AT CRIPPLE CREEK.

1t is Thought There is Little Likeli-
hood of serious Trouble.
CRIPPLE CREEK (Col.), March 1S.-It
has been quiet here to-day, and it is now
thought there is little likelihood Of serious
trouble. Some of the miners, however,
are desperate men. and not few of them
went through the horrors in Ceur
d'Alene, as they have often admitted.
The troops of the National Guard did
not arrive in town until o'clock this
morning, and when they went into camp
at the foct of Second street, on large
plat OF vacant ground. they were as dirty
a set of men as ever came OFT march. In
stead of riding over from Midland in
coaches and hacks, as had been intended,
General Brooks decided that il would be
better for the men TO march. This de-
cision was reached after the receipt of ad-
vices from this city that there was a
strong possibility that the miners on Bull
Hill would attempt 10 ambush the troops
in some narrow deiile. OF course. the
commanding officer did not know but
that this Information was correct, but in
reality it was without the least founda-
tion.
To-day the soldiers have done nothing
but lie in camp. Adjutant-General Tars-
ney and Brigadier-General Brooks have
their headquarters in the Palace HOTEL A
hospital has been opened in the large
building III the upper town, and ii now
has five inmates, but none OF the cases are.
OF q serious nature.
A large number of business men waited
this evening on Sheriff Bowers and CEN
eraI Tarsnev and General Brooks. The
situation was fully explained to the Off
GERS of the National Guard. Later GEM
eral Tsrsney bad long talk with Gov
ernor Waite by telephone, and explained
the situation TO his chief as fully as pos
sible. Governor Matte advised that a
conference with the miners and authori-
ties OF Altman be held. This was agreed
To on all sides, and the Sheriff said that
the men on Bull Hill had come down the
hill and returned without molestation.
This means that he will not attempt 10
serve any warrants on the men tonight
while they are in the city.
Martin Alexander, the Mayor OF Alt
man, and John Daley, the Deputy Mar
shal of the town, were arrested in this
city and placed in jail early in the fore
noon. John Calderwood, President of
the Miners Union, was also arrested. A
few hours ago the three men were taken
70 the County Jail at Colorado Springs.

OAKLAND, March 1S.-John Brady, a
painter. shot and killed Mary Brady, his
wife, and then committed suicide this
morning in the Church of Immaculate
Conception in this city. Brady and his
wife had been separated about two years.
He was much dissipated, and appears to
have harassed her great deal. This
irving after the service. She entered the
church and knelt down to pray near the
altar. Brady entered and took seat be-
hind her. She appeared to have been
unaware of his presence. No others
were in the church. Suddenly Brady
drew pistol, and, placing the weapon at
the back of his wiie's head, drew the
trigger. The woman was killed instantly.
Then Brady pointed the pistol toward
his own body and fired, the ball going
through his right lung.
Meanwhile the noise of the shots had
attracted back to the church many of the
mass celebrants, and they rushed for
ward TO overpower Brady. He brand
ished his pistol wildly and threatened to
shoot any one who advanced. The crowd
hesitated. Then Brady placed the pistol
to his forehead and blew out his brains.
Brady is about 10 years of age, his wife
the same. They were once well to do.
Since their domestic trouble Brady has
been out of work most OF the time. He
was probably deranged.

SIX MEN PERISH.
Freight Train Swept Over an Embank-

SEATTLE (Wash.), March 1S.-A report
was received tonight that the Great
Northern freight train which left Snoho-
mish Saturday night was struck by a
snowslide near Skokemish, and swept
over an embankment 100 feet. Six men
perished with it. The train was said to
have gone entirely out Of sight under the
slide IN the valley. Local officers of the
road claim to know nothing of the acci-
dent, and they express doubt as to the
truth of the report.
The West-bound passenger train was
delayed by snowslide and powders on
the track near Wellington. The bowl
ders were so large that they had to be
blasted away and the train will not reach
here before $50 tomorrow morning. All
attempts to get information by wire from
near the reported scene of the wreck have
failed.

STE AMER ASHORE.
The La Bretagne From Havre Grounded
Near Fire Island.

Near Fire Island.
New YORK, March 1S.-The general
transatlantic steamer La Bretagne. from
Havre, March 10th, for New York, ran
ashore last Sunday night at point
about twelve miles east of Fire Island.
Details of the affair are not easily obtain
able, but it has been learned that the
vessel went ashore on a sandy bottom,
and she will probably be gotten aAoat
when the tide reaches the flood. a dense
fog has prevailed over land and sea ever
since an early hour last night, and navi
CATION along the coast was theI9 9by rem
dered difficult and dangerous.
1t is conjectured that the steamer,
which was due to arrive in New York
Sunday morning, had been caught in the
fog. Owing to the thick weather
and perhaps miscalculation as
to the strength of the current,
the steamer lost her bearings. 1t is not
believed she is in any danger. 1t is i'm
possible to get any details or explana-
ton OF how the accident occurred.
The La Bretagne is a four-masted ves-
sci of 6,S95 tons gross and 4,4l2 tons net.

of the Cunard Steamship Company shows
a profit of 100000, of which el53, 4l9 will
be debited to the ships and wharves and
e36 965 to the insurance fund, leaving

to the credit account. The total insurance
fund now amounts to 9322, 900.
The report says trade throughout the
year continued Improbable and disap-
pointing. The receipts from the second
class passengers alone showed an in
crease. The carrying of freight was
without profit The coal strike caused an
increase in the company's expenditures.
Two twin screw freight steamers of 5000
tons each have been ordered, to be de-
livered at the end of 1894 and the be-
ginning of 1895.
The report concludes that the service
has been executed efficiently, and the
vessels and machinery maintained in ex-
cellent condition.

however, that such councils would do
more for the Irish cause than any decla-
rations made by English members of the

fused to give him the protection guaran-
teed by law. He has received letter
from the Secretary of the British En-
bassy in Washington, stating that the
ambassador had taken cognizance of his
case. The letter directs him TO make a

AS a matter of practical politics, it is clear

CHICAGO. March I9.-People in the
vicinity of new grain elevator in pro-
cess of erection in South Chicago were
Mortified to see Joseph Coates, carpen-
ter, slip from the roof and slide rapidly to
the edge. AS he was going over the
edge, Coates grabbed a wall plate with
his right hand and hung to it, his body
being suspended at a hight of 100 feet.
Coates fellow work were paralyzed
with fright and two of them tainted.
Others soon recovered their senses and
set about to rescue him.
Ali this time Coates was crying out TO
those in sound of his voice TO save him.
In the course of a few seconds. the horror
stricken watchers on the bridge below
saw man appear at. a window and be-
hind him we're several other men. The
first man leaned forward until it seemed
as if he would tumble headlong. but
strong hands put stout rope about his
body and held him securely while he
reached out and grasped the man hang
ing from the wall plate form and sue
ceeded in getting him to the window
ledge. Then, with an almost supernu-
man effort, he brought him through the
window.
The rescued man, when he found him
self saved, fell over i'll dead faint, and
the rescuer, William Jones, another car
penter, collapsed completely. a faint
cheer reached those in the roof at the top
OF the elevator. Coates, when he was
finally revived. was in such nervous
condition that he had to be assisted home
by two of his fellow-workmen.

mitted by Governor Waite for the pur-
pose of ascertaining who are legally en-
titled to act 2s Commissioners, is disposed
of. 1t is set for hearing tomorrow
afternoon.
The situation is still critical. for Orr and
Martin, acting on the advice of their
counsel declare they will not be gov
erned by the opinion of the Supreme
Court, but will insist on holding office
until a decision is obtained in regular
manner in the case pending in the Dis
trict Court. Their attorneys definitely
decided to-day that they would not take
part in the argument, and the hearing,
they say, will be eX parte. and not bind
ing. 1t is even doubtful if the Supreme
Court will give an answer to the question
submitted by the Governor. In that
event, the Governor may renew the at
tempt to clean out the police department
by force.

the court will do justice to the cause. Il
