More than a hundred men and women

with choking voices. with tender. but

Arrested and Shot.

Calling an Election Is Laid.

/ Copyrighted. 1894. by the Associated Press)
BUENOS AYRES, Feb. 9.-Most sensa-
tional news has been received from Rio
de Janeiro and 1t Is believed, at least.
to have some foundation in fact.
According to the dispatches the de-
cision OF President Peixoto to issue a
decree calling for a Presidential election
us well as for an election for members
OF Congress on March /. was only reach
ed after the President had been badly
frightened by the discovery OF a plot
to murder him.
A number OF influential people. In
Guiding several officers. are said to have
been among the conspirators. The police
arrested the ringleaders, whose trial
is said to have followed closely upon
their arrest. and. 1t is said. the prisoners
were sentenced to death.
The next morning, according to the
dispatches received here, the persons
convicted were taken to an u~nfrequented
spot outside the line OF Notifications.
and were shot while kneeling at the foot
of freshly-dug graves.
After the fatal volley, the bodies Of
the conspirators were hastily placed In
the graves by the soldiers composing
the firing party. the earth was show
el,ed upon them and the soldiers were
cautioned not to say a word about the
affair. under the threat OF being shot II
they did so.
The circumstances were thus kept
from the ear OF the general public, but
their effect upon President Peixoto is
said TO have been so great that he signed
the decree calling for the election on
March /.
A number OF implicated persons, be-
sides those Who were shot, were SEN
fenced to long terms of imprisonment.
inc those who had property were notified
that 1t had been conflscated for the use
of the Government. Others still OF the
suspects. 1t Is said. sought refuge In
flight. and are now on their way to Eng

Sam Smalrs Oklahoman vehemently
denies that the president or any of his
cabinet-that means Secretary Smith
are opposed to statehood for Oklahoma,
and demands the proof of an authorita-
tive statement from either of them to
that effect. Perhaps that could not be
given, and yet it is well known in
Washington in administration circles
that the administration is opposed to
statehood, not alone for Oklahoma but
for all the territories, because of the eff
feet their admission would have on its
financial policy. 1t is all right for the
Oklahoman to defend the administration;
that is, il is expected to do so, being its
