nations OF impatience he listened I'd
the recital of the grievance. when
the American officer had finished max
ing his statement, Da Cana, with q
shrug Of his shoulders, said In very
sharp tone:
ut Is not my fault. The American
ship captains should know enough to
keep themselves and their crews out OF
range of our guns. ] shall not take
any notice OF this matter"
This curt response to his message
aroused the ire of Admiral Benham,
and he determined to make such q
showing that it would produce last
ing effect upon the insurgents. In the
morning the decks OF the vessels of the
American feet were cleared for action.
The bark Amy, the captains OF the
other vessels having weakened, took
her position in the ranks of the Amer
lean vessels, and was escorted to the
wharf
Throughout the whole affair not a
single shot was fired, but the scene
was quite as impressive as II this had
been done, and the incident has taught
the insurgents lesson. After passing
along Rios water front the feet re.
turned out into the bay and anchored
in nearly the same position 1t had oc-
cupied previous to the demonstration.
Full protection from this time on will
be given to all American vessels.

tion. Da Cana refused to take this
hint. A musket was fired from the
Guanabara, Da Gama's flagship, at the
Good News.
The Detroit at once fred a six-pound
shot across the bows of the Guanabara,
whereupon the latter vessel replied
with what is supposed to have been a
blank cartridge. The Detroit then
turned one of her guns upon the Guam
abara and sent a small shot into her
stern p )st, and was on the point of de-
livering broadside at the insurgent
ship when the Guanabara signaled that
she would stop firing.
Da CANA Would Surrender.
In the meantime an American citi-
zen, G. NJ. Rollins, who acted as the
agent of Admiral da Cana in the arbi-
Il alton negotiations, hal visited all
three of the American merchantmen
and offered to have them towed at the
expense of the insurgents If they would
not go to the piers. This the captains
of the merchantmen agreed to. This
arrangement was repOi t I'd to Admiral
da Cana on board his flagship, the Lib
erdade. He then said: 1T is too late. The
glass is broken. / must yield to this

miral da Cana called a council OF his

would seek an asylum on board the
American fleet. but the younger off,
GERS would not yield. 1t was stated at
the council that Admiral Benham had
offered Admiral da Cana and his Off
GERS asylum on board OF the American
war ships.

One of Them Fatally Wounded and Sew
eral Are Badly Hurt.
A wave of anarchy in whose train
followed bloodshed, arson, and the
destruction Of property passed over the
Mansfield, Pa, coal region the other
day. 1t began at dawn and at dusk it
was estimated that 100000 worth of
property had been destroyed. Made
mad by fancied grievances and liquor,
a mob of several hundred foreigners
Hungarians, Slavs and Italians-swept
over the county surrounding Mans
field and through the valleys of Toms
and Painters run. They attacked
mine owners, miners. and few scat
tered deputy sheriffs, and destroyed
railroad property.
Until noon the mob met hardly any
resistance. At that time it reached
the mines of the Beading Bros, near
Federal, on the Pittsburg, CHARTERS
and Youghiogheny Railroad. Here the
rioters met determined resistance and
were checked. With repeating Win
chester rifles in their hands, Thomas
F., William and Henry Beading stood
their ground and opened fire upon the
mob as it advanced. They fired four
volleys in quick succession, fatally
OIc anu lhS ~
others. The man fatally wounded was
Frank Stable. Frenchman. He was
shot through the body. The names
of the other men injured could
not be learned. After the fourth
volley the rioters turned and fled
precipitately down the hill. At this
moment train bearing Sheriff Rich
ards and forty deputies pulled into
Beading and the OFF GERS, quickly
alighting, started in pursuit Of the
rioters, firing as they ran. The chase
was long and hot one, but finally
sixteen we're overtaken and captured.
They were marched to the Mansfield
Jail at the point of revolvers. On the
way the party was met by a posse of
citizens OF Bridgeville, under command
OF Squire CASHIER Meyers. They will
be held for riot and arson.
AS result of the fighting 1t Is stated
that demand will be made by the cit
liens of the Mansfield region that the
coal operators discharge all foreigners
now in their employ, and hereafter
hire none but American workingmen.
To avoid similar trouble in the future
it is thought this course will be neces-

BAD YEAR FOR FARMERS.

Report OF the Agricultural Department Ia
Not Encouraging.
In the report OF the Agricultural De-
rartment the total value of the corn
crop for 1893 is placed at 1851, 1926, ,627,
and although the crop is only about
1900, 900 bushels less than that of 1892
its money value on the farm is $50, 500,-
600 less. The value per acre is 1921,
the lowest figure for ten years, except
for the years Of 1886 and 1880. The
falling off in the wheat crop for the
year Is even more marked. The
total product, as estimated, amounts to
1916, l3l, 1925 measured bushels, which
falls below the average for the ten
years 1880 to 1889 to the amount of 3d.
$50, 1864 bushels, ard is 81, ,B48, ,958 bushels
less than the average crop for the years
1890 to 1893, inclusive. There has also
been fall in the price of wheat, so
that the farm value of the crop is esti-
mated at no more than $213, III, ,3S1,
which Is believed to be the lowest ever
recorded. The crop of oats in 1893 was
%, $50, $50 bushels less than in 1892, and
the farm value was $21 ,677, ,5l9 less
The report also shows corresponding
decrease in the crop of potatoes, rye
and barley, not alone in the production
but in the price.

DECKS CLEARED FOR ACTION.

American war-ships Prepare to Resent m
Insult at Rio.
Monday was one of the most exciting
days that Rio Janeiro has experienced
since the commencement OF hostilities
between the insurgents and the Brazil
ian Government. The United States
naval fleet stationed in that harbor has
furnished the excitement. Provoked
beyond the endurance OF patience by
the continued carelessness OF the gun
ners aboard the rebel warship Aquida-
ban, and tried by the Indifference
shown on the part OF the revolutionary
Admiral TO all his protests that Amer
lean vessels entering or leaving the
harbor were not afforded proper pro-
lection by the rebel feet. Admiral Ben
ham made q demonstration with the
American war vessels under his COM
mand which will undoubtedly have the
effect hereafter of securing proper rec
ognition of the rights of vessels under
the American flag.
Three American vessels, the bork
Amy, Captain Blackford; the bark
Coed News, Captain Myrick, and the
bark Julia Rollins, Captain Kiehne,
were fired on last Saturday by the in
surgent vessels. The three captains
held hurried conference and deter
mined to appeal for protection to the
United Sta es war ships and to request
that the barks be given an escort to
the wharves. Capts. Kiehne, Myrick,
and Blackford put off in small boats at
great danger to themselves, and pull
ing up to where the flag ship New
York was stationed, stated the case
TO Admiral Benham. He promised to
adjust matters.
Admiral Benham then sent one OF
his officers to the Aquidaban with or
ders to acquaint Admiral Da Cana
with the facts and 10 ask him to have
an end put to the reckless gunnery.
Da Cana was apparently In very bad
humor when the American officer ar
rived on board, and with many excla-
