Sighted All Round.

LONDON, Jan. 29.-An advance cable
message to the Times from Rio, January
20, via Montevideo, January 90 says:
Inc American admiral on Monday in
vlted Admiral da Cana to an interview
on board the flagship New York. Da
Cana stated that the American admiral
assumed a peremptory manner. stating
that the insursent cause was hopeless, and
tnat he proposed to arrange a reconciliation.
Da Cana replied that the only terms pos
slble were the resignation of PeixotO and
a free election. The American admiral
then lost his temper and said he would
protect the landing of Government war
material, using force If necessary.
Da Cana replied that the insurgents
controlled the States of Rio Grande do
Sui. Santa Catarina and Parana and would
make every effort TO hold out at Rio until
the arrival of troops, as they considered
they had a fair chance Of victory.
Yesterday the American admiral at
tended at the palace in order to pay an
official visit of which he had previously
notified Peixoto. but was kept waiting two
hours, and then informed that the Presi-
dent was busy and unable to receive him.
Americans say that this is an insult to the
American navy.
A conference of foreign naval command
ers was held to-day and it was decided to
telegraph their respective Governments
saying that the insurgents have complete
control of the harbor and asking instruc-
tiODs whether 10 use force TO protect ship

Is STILL IN SOCIETY.
The Princess of Wales Shows No
Intention of Retiring.
She Has Only Given Up Dancing
Since the Death of
Her Son.

NEW YORK, Jan. 29-Edmund Yates ca.
bles the Tribune from London that the SEN
sational statement in contemporary that
the Princess of Wales has decided to with.
draw from society is utterly untrue. Nor
is IL a fact that sne mas announced any re-
solve on the subject.
The Princess has to considerable extent
Withdrawn from society ever since the
death of the Duke of Clarence, but she
would have attended this seasons draw.
ing-rooms il her health had not rendered il
advisable for her TO pay another visit to
Italy and Greece.
The Princess of Wales has not attended
single ball since her eldest sons death,
and year ago she intimated an intention
OF not going to any function at which
there will be dancing, so that she was not
seen at either of the state balls last season.
and as | mentioned last November the pro-
posed winter balls at SandrIngham were
abandoned because the Princess objected.
L have the best possible autho ority for
stating that not a word respecting the
alleged intention Of the Princess to with
draw had been written or spoken either
oy the Prince of Wales or any other re-
sponslble authority. The fact is. it was
never the regular custom of the Princess
OIL Wales TO accompany the Prince
upon his country house visits, and
OF late years she never went with him
except to the houses of intimate friends.

VERY MUCH DISAPPOINTED.
No Aid and Comfort to Be Had in
Wall Street.
QUESTION OF LEGALITY.
Men Who Have Gold Will Let 1t
Go Only Upon a Sure
Investment.

New YORK. Jan. 29.-By direction of
Secretary Carlisle, Assistant Treasurer
Jordan sent out Invitations TO thirty bank
presidents and officers of other prominent
financial institutions asking them to meet
the Secretary of the Treasury at the SUBJ
treasury to-day. The conference lasted
for all hour and a half, and at its conclu-
sion several of the bankers present said
that Carlisle had spoken at length on the
action of the judiciary Committee. saying
he ihought its resolution showed the
legality of the issue. He also said that he
believed the resolution would fail to pass.
Referring to the action of the Knights of
Labor. the secretary said he was of the
opinion that the decision of the courts
would undoubtedly affirm his right TO
issue bonds.
The bankers present. asked numerous
questions concerning the points at issue.
They assured sthe Secretary that If the
legality of the bonds was shown he could
rely on it that all of them would be taken
IN New York uncouditionally and above
the set price.
The general report of those present at
the conference was that the proposed Is
sue was much strengthened by the discus
sion. One of the mem bers of the Clear
ing-house committee said that in the minds
of those who heard Carlisle's statement Of
the case there was no doubt of the safety
of the bonds as investments. Their
legality, be said. was assured.
How far the issue had been subscribed
for could not be learned. The conference
is said to have been the result of the with
drawal of a subscription which had been
made. At the conclusion of the confer
ence Carlisle refused to make any state
ment about it and he returned to Washing
ton by the 5:20 train this afternoon.
A prominent banker stated this after
noon that he believed when Carlisle re-
turned to Washington this evening he was
much disappointed man. Il am cer-
taiu," continued the gentleman, "the Sec
retary was satisfied that after he had fully
explained matters to the bank presidents
ne would receive positive assurances that
they would buy at least so many blocks of
debentures, whereas all he got was. We
will bring it up and discuss it tomorrow
at specially called meeting of direct
ors.'

DEATH IN THE WAVES
Tragic Fate of the Crew of the
Port Yarrock.
Drowned in Sight of Land Despite
All Efforts Made to Save
Them.

DUBLIN, Jan. 2a.-The British bark
Port Yarroek, Captain FORBES, which
sailed from Santa Rosalia on July for
Queenstown aud Antwerp. and which has
been reported anchored in Bandon Bay,
Ireland, dragged her anchors during a
heavy gale yesterday and stranded at
Keelcomn this morning. All efforts ON
the part of shoremen could not save the
wrecked seamen and twenty-five men, in
cludiDg the captain, were drowned. When
the heavy seas struck the vessel the main
and mizzen masts went by the board and
the seamen took to the fore rigging.
Shortly afterward that was carried away
and the unfortunate sailors clinging to it
were thrown into the sea. For a time the
sailors clung to pieces of wreckage floating
about. but one by one gave up the struggle
and were drowned before the eyes of on
lockers powerless to help them. The
vessel was completely broken up.
a Dublin lifeboat with a red star on
each bow and with name ending in
Field has been stranded at Burton Port.
Donegal. A Quantity of cotton has also
been stranded at the same place, and it is
believed that a large steamer has been
wrecked somewhere on the coast.
The British ship Port Yarrock was first
reported as anchored at Bandon Bay on
January % short OF provisions and with
nearly all of her crew sick with the scurvy.
She must have been driven ashore on ac-
count of the physical inability of her men
to handle her, as private dispatches re-
ceived in this city yesterday intimate as
much.
The Port Yarrock's crew was shipped
when the vessel left Liverpool for Santa
Rosalia, Lower California. but a number
of them deserted when the latter port was
reached, and draft of men had to be sent
for from this city to fill the places OF the
deserters One of these men was Thomas
Morganthau, a ships carpenter, who is
well known in local shipping circles. He
leaves wife and a child 10 years of age,
who are said to reside in Seattle.
The Port Yarrock was at one time char
tered to load from San Francisco, but the
charter for some unknown reason was sub
sequently Cancelled.

NO BREAKUP.
The Frisco Line VIII Be Kept In the
Santa Ee System.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 29.-General Solicitor
George Peek, Judge j. b. johnson, master
in chancery of the Santa Fe system. and
W. ii. Rossington and c. B. Smith, repre-
sentative of the Union Trust Company OF
New York, arrived this morning from
Topeka and proceeded to the Office of
General Attorney kenna of the st. Louis
and San Francisco Railway. where they
remained in close consultation until long
after noon. Their arrival in town gave
rise to numerous rumors, among them be-
ing these: That it was the intention to
appear before Judge Caldwell of the
United States Court, ask for the rsscind-
ing of order No. 10. to keep off the branch
lines, and to ask for the dissolution of the
receivership of the system as far as it re-
lates to the St. Louis and San Francisco
road. Peck, however. denied them all
positively. He said the conference was
primarily to consider the affairs of the
system; secondly. to arrange to appear
before Judge Caldwell Wednesday and
ask for an order allowing the receivers to
pay certain debts.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
1t Is Said Benham Showed Even
More Vigor of Action.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-The Herald's
Montevideo correspondent cables: The
Herald's correspondent at Rio Janeiro
Brazil, sends word that the captains of
American merchant ships in Rio Bav
are jubilant over the prompt action taken
in tn cir behalf by Admiral Benham. and
they contrast it sharply with Captain

views already stated. The United States

it is believed that Benham's action will re-
suit in another conference of foreign
naval commanders here for a plan
of concerted action. Admiral da Cana
has already been informed that lighters
loaded with American merchandise will
be protected, and that American vessels
must be allowed to go to and from any
part of the harbor without being fired
upon, and that if a Dombardment is to be
begun at any time forty-eight hours no.
tice must be given by either side in order
that foreign merchantmen may get out of
the line of fire.
In view of this determined action of the
foreign naval commanders, Da Cana. 1t is
thought by many, may now attempt to go
south and join MellO.

some time. On some of the divisions the

that the story of Cain and Abel is myth,
with no more truth in it, as far as is
