GLADSTONE ALL RIGHT.
British Interests Being Protected In
Brazil.
By Gable to the United Press.

LONDON, Jan. 2, 1s94-In reply to ques-
tion asked in the House of Commons today
by the Right Hon. Arthur Forwood, who is
a prominent shipowner, Mr., Gladstone said
that during the operations at Rio Janeiro
the Government had been in
constant communication with the
British Minister to Brazil, and the
senior officer of the British fleet at Rio Ja-
neiro. British ships, he added, had received
from the British representatives the same
protection that had been accorded the ships
of other nations by the representatives of
the several powers. The Brazilian insur-
gents were not recognized as belligerents
by Great Britain, and the Government
could not undertake to in any way interfere
with the quarrel in progress in Brazil. Mr..
Gladstone concluded by declaring that he
was surprised that such question as had
been put by Mr.. Forwood should have been
asked

His Career.
By Gable to the United Press.

By Cable to the United Press.
MADRID, Jan. 2, 1s94.-An anarchist
named Santiago Salvador, alias Jacques Sal
vador, was arrested today at Saragossa,
capital of the province of that name. As
soon as the police placed their hands on him
he drew a revolver and attempted
to kill himself He succeeded in
infiicting a severe wound in his
right side, but it is not supposed that the in
Jury will prove fatal While one of the
officers ran for medical assistance the Others
stood guard over the prisoner, whose revol-
yer had been taken from him. Salvador
was lying upon the floor of his lodg.
ings, and the officers though he would
make no further attempt upon his life.
In this they were mistaken, for Salvador
drew from his pocket a small packet that
was found to contain deadly poison, and
attempted to swallow its contents. The
officers took the packet from him before he
could get the contents into his mouth.
After physician had dressed his wound
he was taken before a magistrate, to whom
he confessed that he had been concerned in
the plot to blow up the Lyceum Theatre in
Barcelona

WANSER'S DECISION.

It is known that Mayor Wanser has ar
rived at a decision in the
matter of the charges recently
heard against the Street and
Water Commissioners The Mayors de-
cision is prepared for delivery to Governor
Werts. He finds them guilty, as charged,
under number of the charges.
The document is an exceedingly interesting
one. 1t was to have been made public to
day, but the Mayor withheld it
in order to put few finish
ing touches to it. Secretary Nevin an
nounced at two o'clock this afternoon that
the decision would not be made public today.

given them a clue to her assailant, but this
was denied by the doctors.
One thing, however, is certain, that the Of
ficials in the hospital will reveal nothing CON
trary to the direction of the Police who when
they obtain any information from her will
suppress it until after the case has been
worked up. One well versed in detective
cases gives what is probably the most
rational of all theories yet presented. He
discards the tramp theory and the. friend
theory. He that some tough in the
neighborhood is the author Of the deed. Miss
Barrowcliff was born and brought up in that
section of the city and she must have been
well known by the residents. Her move
ments and habits must have been matters of
common knowledge in place sparsely built
up and containing a handful Of people, and
consequently most improbable foraging
ground for the genus tramp.
