Enthusiasm Over Peixoto's Vic
tory at Armacao.
DE dAMA's WOUNDS TREATED
How the Raw Members of the Ma
tionaI Guard Behaved When
i'm Line of Battle.

NEW YORK, Feb. 22.-The Herald's Rio
Janeiro special says: England's refusal to
recognize the rebels as beligerents is
viewed with disfavor by the British resi-
dents in this city, and it is attributed to
the influence of the United States. The
insurgents themselves feel very bitter
toward Argentina and Chile for their re-
fusals of the same request.
Admiral da Cana has been treated for
the three wounds he received in that fierce
attack upon Armacao, on February 9, by
the surgeon of the British gun boat Sirius.
The elation of President Peixoto's follow
ers over that affair has not cooled down
yet. and the unusual bravery with whirh
young and raw members of the National
Guard conducted themselves in the fight
Is receiving great deal of praise.
The sudden arrival of body Of cavalry
on Armacao beach during that fight proved
a great surprise to the rebel sailors, al
ready almost worn out by their exertions.
and many of them were run down by the
horses. They fought with great bravery,
too, but were outnumbered.
There was no firing after that in Rio
harbor until February IL, when the guns
in Armacao fort, which had been dis
mounted by the rebels in their charge,
were set up again and opened fire on the
rebel warship Tamandare. The Taman-
dare thereupon moved far up the bay, out
of reach of the Armacao gunners. and the
AQuidaban resumed her old anchorage in
front of the wharves, which she main
tained until she left the harbor yesterday.
The Heral6's Panama special says: ut
is said here that Mango. the agent for the
liquidstor of the Panama Canal Company,
will assume the SUPPLEMENTARY of the
Panama Railroad in place of Rives on
March 1. Panama and Colon will gain
much by the change.
The Spanish Consul here sent back to
Havana yesterday twenty-seven immi-
grants who had been deceived int coming
to this country by the false representations

Agriculture.
Cleveland's Secretary Defends His
Position in Regard TO Can
ada ThistIes.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22-Secretary of
Agriculture Morton has written letter 10
Representative Sibley of Pennsylvania
defending himself against the structures
made upon him for his position on the
question of government and in the ex-
termination of Canada thistles and other
matters affecting agricultural interests
He ineloses letter which he wrote to
Governor Shortridge Of North Dakota, ia
which the following language occurs:
mo one more than myself appreciates
the Importance of exterminating this and
other noxious weeds which infest farms OF
the United States, but do not think ii the
business for the Government to destroy
the weeds Tor the people any more than 10
raise wheat for them OF cut corn by appro-
priations from public funds" He adds that
the Government having given the lands TO
homesteaders, they should be inspired to
bring them to the highest state of culiiva-
tinn, and the law OF self-preservation
should teach them to apply ''every means
at their command for either utilizing or for
exterminating the Canadian thistle"
Morton quotes from letters from editors
of and editorials in agricultural papers in
Manitoba and Dakota to the effect thai
the thistle is very valuable for fodder or
as fertilizer, and adds that in view of
the diversity of opinion on the subject he
sees no reason TO change his position as to
the proprieiy. OF appropriating S1.000,000
for its extermiDation. You remark" he
says, 'that l am reported as antagonstic
TO the Bureau Of Animal Industry, opposed
TO meat inspection and adverse to the dis
tributicn of seeds to the farmers" and
adds that he has sent Sibley cnpy of bis
annual report for 1899, and asks him to
read IL to learn his views. He says Sibley
cites other reported utterances without
foundation or grossly distorted, and closes
as follows: Having lived in the country,
on the same farm. and among real farmers
for nearly forty years. l have very strong
and abiding interest in the welfare OF
American agriculture, and wholesome,

The Gun Purchases by Members
of the A. p. A.
Ii Looks as IL the Case Will Have
to Be Taken Higher Than a
Justice Court.

TOLEDO. Ohio, Feb. 22.-It develops TO-
day that the War Department question Of
the local American Protective Association
will turn out to be more serious than suit
in the justice court for the payment of
guns.
United States District Attorney Brins-
made said today: 81 was surprised when
l learned of the trial In the justice court
yesterday, as the matter had not been
brought to my attention yet, but il COM
plant is made l shall do my duty fully. If
men are so foolish as TO break the laws of

will be done in this matter at once. l have
just been examining the statutes and find
that men organizing as armed bands for
the purpose of waging war on citizens of
the United States or the Government it,
self comes under the head of treason and
conspiracy"
1t is generally understood that the mat
ter will be brought before the Federal
Grand Jury and a special sitting may pro b.
ably be called. The case will be fully re-
ported to the Acknowledgement at WASH
ington and Immediately pushed to an
issue.
Catholics, and those who oppose the A..
z. A. for other reasons. have become
aroused against the order since the details
of the gun purchases have been M ade pub
lie, and efforts will be made to crush the
society in this city, where for two years
they have held the balance of political
power.
Some city officials. including the Mayor
and Police Commissioners. are said to
have been among the number fearful of an
uprising. and had purchased rifles.

Situation.
HAS NOT OBTAINED BAIL.
WAS A SENSATION IN GOTHAM.
The Prisoner Says He Has Committed
No Crime, but Will Make a
Statement Later.

New YORK, Feb. 22.-The city was all
agog this morning when it learned for the
first time from the startling headlines of
the newspapers of the arrest and incarcer-
alton of EraStus Wiman, the man who
had been such conspicuous figure in the
commercial life of the metropolis. Con-
trary to the custom IN cases of distin-
guished prisoners, no favors were shown
Wiman when he was locked up in the
Tombs last night. In fact, he was given
quarters in the murderers' row.
In answer TO a note sent in this morning
by a newspaper acquaintance asking for
statement he sent out the following reply:
IL would be very glad TO do so, but under
the advice of General Tracy. ny counsel,
will make no statement till my turn
comes. When the ammunition of the
moving powers against me in the shape of
hired men who have been arraigning and
trying me in the newspapers is exhausted,
1t will be time for me to speak"
The Warden says he passed a good
night. bearing up brayely under his
troubles.
Wiman's son visited him this morning.
After coming out he said: Father will
not try to get bail to-day. as it is holiday,
UAs uO hliA pioDaO19 alAduSO 1OL AZ tO-ulOl-
row." The impression els that be is not
anxious TO get bail.
General Tracy said tonight that he had
been very busy all day looking over the
indictments and examining the papers re-
lating TO the charges made by Dun against
Wiman, and that tomorrow he will en-
deavor to have his client released on bail
Wiman promises to speak when his turn
comes, and it is expected that he will then
give another colon to the story of alleged
forgeres already told. He says he has
committed no crime, but only did what he
had right to do by reason of his business
relations with the mercantile agency.
Beyond this assertion Wiman declines
to discuss the allegations made by Dun,
until be is perfectly prepared TO make a
~r1blic statement of facts concerning the
bharges made against him.
