WhnleLncks In the Navy.

Washington, Jan. 3O.-It was an-
nounccd Il, the navy department to-day
that a Western shipbuilder had pre-
sentcd pro"osition to utilize vessels of
the whalrbs'li type in the navy. As
Capt. aIrI)ougnll of Duluth, the origin

is presumably the gentleman referred to,
but whose identity is kept secret The
whnlcback is more on the order ofg q
monitor than other merchant vessels, anil
ON account OF its dcflecting sides, with
heavy arlnor, would present most
formidable front for heavy fire. This
Western builder wishcst he department
to convert u few Of its vessels into this
class of naval ships as an experiment,
and If they promise to be successful
others might easily he turned into aux
iiiary cruisers with the same readiness as
the merchant ships recently fitted out
at New YORK; for the Brazilian navy.

Rio de Janeiro, Jan. 3O.-This has
been one of the most exciting days that
Rio las Rad since the commencement of
hcstilities between the insurgents and
the Brazilian government. The United
States naval fleet stationed in this harbor
has furnished the excitement. Provoked
beyond the endurance of patience by the
col tinued carclcssness of the gunncrs
aboard the rebel war ship Aquidaban,
and tired by the indiffe1 ence shown on
the part of the revolutionary admiral to
all his protests that American vessels
ertering and leaving the harbor were
not afforded proper protection by the
rebel fleet, Admiral Berham to-day made
demonstration with the American war
vessels under his command which has
taught a much needed lesson to the
belligerents on both sides, and which
viii! undoubtedly have the effect hereafter
of securing proper recognition of the
rights of vessels under the American
flag.

OF the safety Of the bonds as an in

LOST is FINALLY FOUND
AFTER YEARS Of SEPARATION
BROTHERS MEET.
Two Brothers Who Became sepa.
rated During the War aud Have
Supposed Each Other Dead, Meet in
Minnesota Town.

st. Paul, Jan. :W.-One of the most
Interesting cases where the extremely
unlikely happened was recorded yester-
day by i. IL. Stateler, general agent of
the Northern Pacific passenger depart
mcnt at San Francisco, ut the office of
General Passenger Agent Fee. Thirty
seven years ago he and his brother
parted, became lost III the shuttle during
the war. and until IL few days ago each
thought the other dead. Both brothers
lived i'll Minnesota since the war until
four years ago, when r. X Statcler ac-
ctpted his present position in San Fran
cisco. The sad feature of the affair is
that when he heard of his brother from
Il friend Il few days ago il was to learn
that he was dying. Immediately he
FASTENED TO Minnesota, aud when i'll the
city yesterday was cn route 10 Clarissa.
where his brother lies dying. When seen
yesterday he related the following story:
There were three brothers of us, Mar.
tin V. hrng the eldest. l was the next,
and my brother Erast,ls was the younger.
My younger brotht, enlisted in 1862 in
the Fourth Missouri infantry. My broth
cr Martin enlisted i'll 1:6:; in the l1}th
Illinois infantry. My youngest brother
served until February or March, 1862,
when he died at ST. Joseph, Mo. l
found him just after my enlistment,
which was Feb. =, 1862, just in time to
bury him.
AT the time of my enlistment 1 was
III correspondence with my elder brother,
who had gone East in 1867. Such cor
rtslondGnce was continued, until his en-
listment and capture, which occurred in
the latter part of 1868. After his capture
our correspondence ceased. never heard
from him until the early part of this jan
liary. He lies now very sick with the
dropsy at Clarissa, MINI.
The very peculiar part of it is the fact
that he lived in Minnesota from 1870 up
to the present time, and from 1866 to
1883, ut which time left for San Fran
cisco. am now on my way to see him,
and hope to find him alive"
