REPUBLICAN politicians are having
their innings now. They are talking
without interruption.
The sun., 1894-03-08

bouchere, protested against the succession
Of Lord ROsebery to the premiership, has
replied to the protests, addressing his
reply to Labouchere. He submitted the
protest to the ministers, and his reply is
said to be couched in conciliatory Ian
guage, his evident purpose being to pre-
vent, if possible, the threatened detection
of the Radicals. At the time the depu-
tatiOn waited upon Mr.. Majoribanks, Mr..
I4abouchere, who spoke in the name of
the Radical party, declared his objection
to the selection of a successor to Mr..
Gladstone from the house of lords, and
said that if the new prime minister was
not taken from the house of commons the
Radicals, who practically hold the ball
ance of power, would desert the govern
ment. Whether this threat can be car
ried into effect is somewhat matter of
conjecture, but it is thoroughly we'll
known that Mr.. Labouchere, who is not
at all lover of the pecrage, will do all
in his power to withdraw the Radical sup
port from a Rosebery cabinet. Mr.
Majoribanks' letter, it is understood, is,
while conciliatory, intended to strengthen
| in the government favor whoever may be
wavering in the Radical ranks.
1t is freely asserted that Lord Rose
berry and the Liberal party will have to
face a grave crisis, and it is difficult to
predict how long the government will
stand

The War Is Practically Fndcd

Rio de Janeiro, March 5.-It is gen
orally believed that the insurrection here
and in the South is virtually over. GThe
rebels are losiAg at all poinls, and to an
impartial observer the end of the strug-
gle is in sight. The rebels are very seri-
ously crippled owing to their lack of men.
In addition to this every one of their
ships here with the exception of the
Aquidaban has been shot full of holes by
the government forces. Their facilities
for repairing the damage done their
ships are very meageF, and, consequently,
their vessels are not at all seaworthy.
With their strongest plea for their revolt
taken from them by the election of q
distinguished and popular civilian for the
presidency, and, finally, with their South
ern allies surrounded by overwhelming
forces, it would seem that they had
reeched the end of their rope,
