p;,tsburg. Pa, Jan. 27.-Last night a
~ of 900 striking coal miners, most of
-rbom were Slaves Poles, Belgians and
Troncbmen, went to the Federal and
1roodville coal mines on the Pittsburg,
CHARTERS and Youghiogheuy railroad, /,
o1d made a violent assault upon the
liners who were at work. A good deal
afdamage was done the equipment Of the
hines and some of the miners were
hootsn. but nobody was killed. The
.trikers had things their own way.
SECOND RAID.
This morning the mob again formed
.,d made another raid at Federal. Sew
sral buildings were damaged, windows
smashed. cables cut, coal cars and other
nronartv destroyed. Every mine in the
d;strict was visited and the miners driven
from work, and many of them were
baaten. When the mob reached Bridge
Vile il was 700 strong. They had a sys-
tematic plan of operations. They divided
into four bands of l5O to 175 each, burned
mine buildings, dumped railroad cars,
tore nm tracks, robbed stores and beat
everybody who came in their way for sew
eral hours.
AN ARMED POSSE IN PURSUIT.
Finally merchant of Bridgeville,
whose store had been robbed, organized a
marty of 20, all Americans and mostly
miners well armed and started in chase
of the rioters The latter were all armed

Of weapons, such as pickhandles, clubs,
knives and some pistols. When they

had beaten a few hours before, they
broke and ran The armed posse cap
tured eighteen of them without firing a
shot. A vigorous hunt will be made for
the others.
The whole country is in turmoil.
Those who are not frightened too badly
are under arms waiting renewal of the
roting, which is expected at any
moment. The Bridgeville defenders will
form the nucleus for an organized posse.
A STORE BUILT LIKE FORT.
At the Beading mine the supply store
had been constructed with a view to de-
feuse in cases like the present. 1t was
provided with loopholes in the shutters
and at the sides of the doors, and
inside few men with Winchesters
and shotguns gave battle when
the mob attempted to capture
the place. Three of the rioters were shot
and one killed. About 100 deputy sberiffs
went from Pittsburg to the scene this
afternoon. There is certain to be more
trouble tomorrow and il may be serious.

Washington, Jan. 27.-Under the au-
spices OF the Washington Builders Ex-
change, a meeting was held last night
with view to bring about a general re-
sumption of building operations in the
city by reduction of rates.
The different building trades and labor
organizations of the city were well repre-
sented, including the Washington Board
OF Trade, the Federation of Labor. the
National Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners, the Bricklayers' Union, the
Journeymen Tin and Sheet-iron Workers,
the Journeymen Stone Cutters Associa-
tlon, the Master Builders Association.

also promised by the Pennsylvania Brown
Stone Company, the Massachusetts Stone
Cutters Association, by the president of a
PhlIadelphia glass company, by the mas
Ter plaStererS, the house painters associa-
tlon, and the bricklayers union. The
lourneymen tin and sheet iron men, the
galvanized iron workers, the brick manu-.
facturers, and others refused any reduc-
tion.
Then single tax advocates and other
theorists took possession of the meeting,
denunciations of capital were indulged in,
ana the meeting was broken up

BRAz1L's REvoLU rIoN.
Admiral Benham Said To Have Ar

Copyright, 1894, by the Associated Press.)
Buenos Ayres. Jan. 27.-Dispatches re-
ceived here from the Associated Press
correspondent at Rio de Janeiro, to-day
announces that in all probability Rear An
miral Benham, in command of the United
States feet in those waters, has, after
communicating with the United States
government at Washington, succeeded in
arranging terms satisfactory to the gov
ernment of President Peixoto as well as
the insurgents commander, and that the
rebellion is most likely at an end.
BENHAM NOT APT TO ARBITRATE.
Washington, Jan. 27-Secretary Her.

Admiral Benham, at Rio Janeiro, but it
asked to act as mediator between the
Brazilian government and its rebelllous
admirals. Still less did 1t EN- body any

Element of the revolutionary troubles had
been effected through his instrumentality.
The state and navy departments concur
in asserting that Admiral Benham has not
been authorized to intervene, and that he
certainly would not intervene without
authorization. Minister Mandonca,
speaking on behalf of the Brazilian gov
ernment, repeats the statement, several
times previously made by him, that
President Piexoto has not requested Ad-
miral Benham's intervention, and as far
as he is advised, has no intention of so
doing. The fact that any settlement has
been reached is also denied on all hands

REPUBLICANS AND THE TARIFF
They Will Vote to Kill Wilson's Bill,
But Not to Reoommit Il.

Washington, Jan. 27.-The republican
policy of opposition to the Wilson bill
when the vote is reached has been fully
determined upon. 1t is not the result Of
a caucus or formal agreement, but is the
outcome of conferences among the repub-
lican leaders during the last few days
Representative Higgins, a republican
member Of the ways and means commit
tee, outlined what the plan Of procedure
would be.
The motion to recommit the bill, which
has been relied on by the discontented
democratic elements, will not receive re-
publican support, and must therefore
fail, as the discontented democrats are
not sufficiently numerous to carry their
point without republican support The
republican leaders take the posi-
tion that there ia nothing to
particular bill, as they think it might as
well go to the Senate in its present form
as in any other.
WILL VOTE TO KILL THE BILL
The republicans will center their oppo-
sition on a motion to strike out the enact
ing clause of the bill. This differs from
the motion to recommit, in that it seeks
TO kill the bill outright, instead of send
ing 1t to the committee for repairs. The
republicans feel that this effort
to kill the entire bill will permit them TO
make consistent record Of direct oppo-
sition to the measure. This will be fol-
lowed by a negative vote on the passage
of the bill. The leaders regard this as
much more desirable and consistent
policy than a trading with discontented
democratic factions to help the latter on
one item or another.
THE BILL SURE TO PASS.
The policy as thus determined is almost
certain 10 result in the passage OF the
Wilson bill. Indeed the republican lead
ers are ready to permit the democratic
majority TO pass their bill and thus as
sumo its responsibilities. The motion TO
recommit is no longer likely TO prove
formidable, as it will have few, if
any, republican votes. On the other
hand the motion to strike out
the enacting clause can hardly prevail,
as it is not believed that sufficient discon-
tented democrats will be found to vote TO
kill the Wilson bill outright. The largest
estimate made of the discontented demo-
Gratis who will join with the republicans
in the motion to kill the bill by striking
out the enacting clause is thirty five, and
this with the full republican vote of 1876
IS considerably short Of majority

received at the state department to-day
reported that active hostilities were in
progress between Nicaragua and Hon
duras, and after a conference between

Cape Grascios a Dios, Nicaragua, and
said thai Honduras was invading Nlcar-
augua at that point.
Bluefelds is an important terminal
point on the Nicaragua canal, and the
intention of Secretary Herbert, in send
