CONFLICTING STORIES.
1t Is Hard to Get to the Truth About
the NiCtheroy.

LONDON, Jan. 13.-A letter from the AS
soci ated Press correspondent at Pernam-
buco, dated December 81. says that the
Brazilian Government guardship Parha-
baya has been sent n orth suddenly, upon
the plea that her services are needed in
order to suppress an insurrection of con-
victs upon an island used as convict set
element; but the departure of the ship
the fear that she would Join the rebel
fleet. A feeling of distrust pervades
all ranks of Brazllians The better
classes all favor the monarchy and the very
Governors of the States are anxious 20 Join
the rebels, but dare not for fear of the
military. There are 800 men on board the
Nictheroy, though there is scarcely room
for $50. Scarcely one of the 100 Brazilian
cadets on board has ever been to sea, and
the result will be In action that they will
impede the working of the ship, even If
nothing worse. With such crew of
BraZilians, only a half American crew
and off ers without commissions she can
not fire her first gun without danger of
becoming a pirate. In addition to this
many now express the opinion that the
dynamite-gun cannot be worked.
SOUTHAMPTON, Jan. 13-In an inter-
view to-day Lieutenant Conway, formerly
of the Nictheroy. said many false rumors
had been circulated by seamen in regard
to the Nictheroy. There were still, he
added, 10 Americans on board the
dynamite cruz ser. and the lieutenant
asserted that in case of an engagement
with the enemy they could be counted
upon to fight well, and that if the Nicthe-
roy was sunk by rebel shell. the vessel
could be counted upon to 60 down with
colors flying.
PERNAMBUCo. Jan. 13.-In mutiny by
drunken members Of the crew of the
cruiser Nictheroy to-day, two mutinsers
were killed and the remainder ironed.

WHIPPING THEM IN.
Pressure Being Brought to Bear
Upon ReCalcitrant Democrats.

NEW YORK. Jan. 13.-The Mail and
Express Washington special says: The
work Of whipping the recalcitrant Demo-
Gratis into line on the Wilson tariff bill has
been begun. The Democratic leaders in
the House and the Senate have commenced
making their rounds among those mem bers
of the party who are reported to be ia open
hostility 10 the tariff bill or are waverinp.
They are conducting a regular crusade.
First, an appeal is made to Democratic
principles. utilization and the pride of the
protesting members and Senators. Ii this
fails, threats are TO be made. The obiec
tors are given to understand that if thew
do not support the bill on its passage they
will be read out of the party, be excluded
from caucuses and conferences of the
leaders, communicated from political
society. and finally that the administration
will strip them Of every vestige of In
fueDce in the departments and patronage.
Furthermore Democratic newspaper repre-
sentatives are being requested 90 have
their journals lay on the lash to those in
clined to kick in the traces. They are to
be mentioned by name, so as to be left as
a mark for the free-traders of the country.
and every eXtraneous influence will be
brought to bear to intimidate them.

PEDDLING POTATOES.
Three Men Arrested on Suspicion of
Making 1t a Blind.

Owing to the fact that several recent
burglares are attributed to peddlers Chic
Crowley has issued an order that theirf
actions should be carefully watched.
Yesterday afternoon Policeman J.
Greeley saw three men on Seventeenth
street going from house to house, each
with a potato in each hand. As he did
not see any wagon he became suspicious.
After the men had left one of the houses
he inquired what they had offered To sell.
and received the reply, Potatoes" He
was further informed that when the occu-
pants of the house said they did not want
any potatoes thew were asked TO buy pair
of spectacles. Greeley followed tie three
men AID questioned them. They cid not
give him satisfactory answers and he
placed them under arrest pendig further
inquiries.
They said they came from Portland on
the Columbia about week ago and were
peddlers, but why they offered to sell
potatoes when they could not fill the
orders was thing they could not or would
not explain. There is strong suspicion
that they were working around till they
found a house temporarily vacated for the
purpose of robbing 1t.
The names they gave were III. G. Muir
ply, Thomas Kelly and John Deballa.

TAUNTS HIS FOE.
Corbett Has a Poor Opinion OF
Charley Mitchell.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. Is. - The
members of the Duval Club this afternoon
deposited the $4,000 purse in the National
Bank at Jacksonville. Sporting men are
arriving hourly and the streets are begin
ming to have an animated appearance.
With the sporting men are coming gam
blers, three-card monte men and fakirs of
every desert ptIon. They are constantly
on the lookout for victims, and the gam
bling-rooms are crowded every night.
A remark of Aijutant-General Houston,
which he made while in Jackson vile in
reg rd to Governor Mitchel's position, is
being commented on rather freely. Gen.
eral Houston said: 1T is not a question
OF right and wrong, but question OF
might and authority. The Governor has
taken a stand and will not be driven from
his position"
BUFFALO, Jan. 13-Corbett has written
a letter to the Commercial in which he
says: "The Duval Club has had to jolly
Mitchell like two-year-old baby to get
him here at all. He insists 90 knowing
the place of the fight ahead of time so he
can post the authorities. He insisted on
fighting at Roby because be knew it
was impossible there and would not
sign with Coney Island till he had inside
information that the contest would not be
allowed. He would not go to New Or
leans until it became a certainty that the
Governor would interfere. and did not
come to Florida until Governor Mitchell
was On record as positively opposed to the
match. / do not think Mitchell tricky or
smart. He is SIM ly CO fidence man,
who gulls his friends, and il he should ever
summon I'D courage enough tn meet me in
the ring, an event l look forward to with
pleasure, you may rest assured that his
money will be on Corbett To win, thus
throwing dawn his friends, as he has al
ways DONE"
LONDON, Jan. 13-"Pony" Moore and
party OF friends sailed to-day for New
York on the Etruria TO be present at the
Corbett- Mitchell championship fight.

SHE is ALL RIGHT.
If Well, Mrs. Goodspeed Should Be
Her Mothers Guard.

Los ANGELES. Jan. 13-Judge Clark
to-day filed written findings and decision
in the guardian contest case of Lucy c..
GoOdspeed VS.. General Mansfield, for the
care of her mother. Mrs. Pratt and her
property. He finds that the charge of bad
character against Lucy G. Goodspeed is
unfounded. and that she has always been
a woman OF good moral character. He
also finds that the charge that she had no
affection for her mother is untrue. He
also finds she is a fit and proper person to
be the guardian of her mothers person
and estate in all respects except on account
of her physical disabilities. Her attorney,
E. S. Campbell, would be better qualified
as a guardian.
This morning Mrs. Anah E. Mansfield
filed a complaint for S1S,SS1 81 in bank,
which she obtained from her mother, Mrs.
Pratt. This afternoon Attorney Campbell
applied for an injunction to restrain the
bank from paying the money.

D. Miquei's Scheme Knocked
Out by the Centrists.
Probability That Germany Will Raise
Only Money Enough for lmme-
date Military Necessities.

BERLIN, Jan. 13.-The advisory council

the discussion of the Russian treaty. The
prospects for the adoption of the treaty by
the Reichs.ag frightened recently. DR..
Miguel. Minister of Finance. this week
practically suffered his first great defeat
since his appoin tment to his present Office.
The decision of the Center party to oppose
the tobacco tax demolished the chances
for the success of his financial scheme as
a whole, though 1t would be rash TO count
without Miquel's skill as parliamentary
tactician. 1t is probable that some modi-
fication will be accepted. and that the
Government will only raise the sum barely
sufficient 70 cover immediate military ne
cessitIes.
The committee already appointed to dis
cuss the stamp duty bill. and which will
also handle the remaining financial meas

The Reichstag to-day resumed the dis

Vossische Zeitung relates a painful in
cident which occurred last night at a ban
quet of the German Chambers of Com
merce. Herr Michels, president Of the
Mayence Chamber of Commerce, was
toasting the Ministers and in SO doing he
severely criticized DIR. MiquePs financial
