4 few citizens who happened 10 be out

mob. but were powerless 70 tnwart its
purpose aDd watched the proceedings from
safe distance. No officers were aroused
or even were aware OF what was going on
until early this morning., so quiet were the
:; actions of the mob.
Orders were given by signs, and obeyed
. without word being spnken. IN the Jail
were two steel cells, in which the prison.
.:eIs were conf ed. Guards were placed
about the jail, and it was just about the
% work OF a moment for the balance Of the

the bonds necessary to replenish the re-
serve.
All statements to the effect that orders
have been given the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing for plates, etc, are pure fab
Ticatons. Absolutely no action has been
taken and no plans decided upon. This
much can be officially stated. The attitude
of New York bank, as expressed in re-
cent publications, in regard 10 furnishing
gold tor export, should such necessity
arise, possibly had some effect in siren 9Th
eniug the feeling that the Government
should issue bonds TO protect the gold re-
serve. 1t is denied. however, that any
agreement ever existed by which banks
were TO furnish gold. a prominent Demo-
cratic Senator said to-day that Secretary
Carlisle would not allow the gold reserve
to fall below s5O.oO0,OO0, and should the
reserve be reduced TO nearly that point be-
fore Congress acted Carlisle would imme-
diately issue bonds. When this statement
was shown Senator VOORHEES,, chairman of
the Finance Committee. he declined either
10 verify or deny it, only saying:
The Secretary Of the Treasury has au-
thority and 8 disposition to protect the
credit of the Government and l have no
doubt he will act promptly and effectively
if an emergency should arise"
Senator voorhees, does not deny the re-
port that be is preparing bill to meet the
emergency, but this statement would
seem to indicate be does not expect to be
called upon to formulate the measure.
With reference to the opinion that a bill
for a bond issue cannot originate In the
Senate, it can be stated the LAWYERS in the
Senate are generally Of the opinion it can
originate there as well as in the House.
Senator Gray says the House would prob
ably make row over such action on the
part Of the Senate, but in his opinion the
Issuance Of bonds is not raising the
revenue as provided for in the consti-
tuition.

Regarded as Hopeless.
NEW YORK, Jan. IA special to the
Tribune from Washington says: It is
definitely learned that the administration
ocsria!s have becems convinced that tie
impending crisis in the Brazilian situation
means complete success for the Govern
ment forces. Only short time ago il was
said at the State Department that the
victory or Meil0's arms was only uues-
ton of time.
The change in the official opinion on the
subject is due to the recent sdyices from
Captain Picking and later ones from Ad-
miral Benham, who has now assumed
command of the naval forces a. Rio. The
earlier and misleading advices were prob
ably sent By Minister Thompson. The
State and Navy Departments are now in
formed that an end TO the revolution is
expected wiehin the next few days, and
that there is practically no doubt of the
defeat of the INSURGENTS
Minister Mendonca has received infor-
nation of the arrival at Pernambucc ot
the torpedo-boat purchased by Pelxoto's
agents in Germany. He has also been in
formed that the Tiridentes and Bahia
have been ordered north TO join the
loyal feet under the command of Admiral
Duarto. Mendonca expects soon to hear
that tha loyal fleet has started for Rio.
Nothing further has been heard from
the Blanchuello and Benjamin Constant,
recently at Toulon fitting out for active
service. and the presumption is that the
vessels are on the way to the northern
rendezvous of Admiral DusrtO's fleet.
The Herald's Montevideo s ecial saws:
The garrison of Bage, which is besieged by
the insurgents Of Rio GraDde do Sui, have
been so severely pinched for provisions
that they have been consuming horses,
cats and other animals for the last ten
days.

Anxiety for the Safety of the British
Ship Senegal.
SAN Francisco, May l4.-Anxiety for
the safety of the British ship Senegal lie
increasing. The vessel left San Diego
80 days ago for Tacoma and nothing has
been hoard of her since. All sorts OF
coujectures are INDUCED in by seafaring
men as to what has become OF her, but
they all reach the same conclusion
that she has been lost.
The vessel should have made the trip
under ordinary circumstances in 20 days,
and under the most adverse weather che
should not have been over 30 days IN
reaching her destination.
Today it was learned that when the
Senegal left port she took only 40 days
provisions for the crew of % men, Capt.
w. A. Sleeves. Nate F. G. Pritchard and
the little daughter Of the captain. Un,
less the vessel has met some ships out

FRUITLESS CAUCUS.
REPUBLICAN SENATORS HOLD A
COUNCIL OF WAR.
They Are Unable to Arrive Mt conolu-

Pursued in Regard to tina
Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, May lathe Republi-
can membe OF the senate were in eau
Gus at Senator Sherman's house tonight
until 10 minutes of O'Clock. The eau
Gus partook more of the nature OF an in.
formal conference than business meet
ing, and while it was called with the
purpose of arriving at conclusion as to
the method to be pursued by the Re-
publican party in the senate, it closed
without eliciting anything in the way
of a party declaration. There was no
vote on any proposition whatever, and
the proceedings consisted OF large num-
Der OF speeches.
There were about 25 of the 81 Repub-
lican senators present, and every one
had something to say in the course OF
the evening. There was no agreement
except upon the one point that the bill
should be beaten ii possible. On gen
eral lines the greatest divergence OF
opinion was on the ability OF the Re-
publicans to beat this bill at all, and
while there was no formal division
which would permit of q counting, the
caucus appeared to be about evenly
divided in sentiment on this question.
The statement that the eastern sena-
tors were favorable to continuation oil
the opposition on the lines which are
now being observed, and that the west
era senators were opposed to any effort
to secure delay, would be in a general
way correct, but there were exceptions
on both sides. Senators Aldrich. Chand-
Ter, Frye and others centended that the
bill could be defeated and said all that
was necessary to demonstrate the cor
rectness of thia assertion was
to give the Democrats time to
widen the breach which they asserted
now exists. Some of them declared foui
or five Democratic votes could be count
ed on as opposed to the bill, while one
of those present went 30 far as to cay
he was assured OF the opposition OF al
least seven Democrats. No names oil
Democratic senators were given, how
ever.
The opposition element contendet
there was no positive assurance of AM
Democratic support in opposition to thu
bill, and that the only means OF testing
the truth of the rumors OF Democratic
classification was to let the voting go on
There was an exchange OF views OF
the policy of the Republicans voting 70

this point was to allow, for the preeent
