New York, March 21.-The Herald's
Montevideo dispatch says: Friends of
the Brazilian insurgents in this city
have received word from Rio saying
that President Peixoto's defeat of the
rebels in Rio bay was fasco.
According to the accounts, Admiral
Da Cana, being unable to hold out any
longer on account of lack of ammuni-
ton and provisions, caused his forts
and ships to be abandoned on the night
before the final bombardment of the
rebel fleet. The government forts fired
upon the vessels next day, although
President Peixoto knew that the enc
my had left them and the reports say
such bad craftsmanship was never
seen in Rio harbor.
When enough firing had been done
to satisfy Peixoto, his troops were
sent aboard the ships, which made no
reply. They found them empty. the
guns spiked and the machinery dis
abled.
The garrisons had also disappeared
from the rebel forts.

st. Joseph, Mo-, March 21.-It was de-

en- and men in this town are extensive
ly engaged in the practice of Turing
country girls from their homes and
starting them in lives of shame.
Two people gave their names as R..
S. Dowell and Eta Dowell appeared in
the police court this morning, charged
with having occupied rooms used for
immoral purposes. Both pleaded not
guilty and this afternoon the man
sent his bail and left the woman in
prison. She then broke down and said
she was not the mans wife, as she
had claimed, but that her home was
near Savannah Andrew county, and
that she had been enticed away from
home by a woman named Shepherd
and Dowell.
This is only one Of several cases
which have come to light here within
a few months that country girls are
being lured to lives Of shame.

NAVAL APPROPRIATIONS.
Much Larger Than they Have Been
In the Past.

Much Larger Than They Have Been
In the Past.
Washington, March 21-The naval
appropriation bill, as prepared by the
subcommittee on naval affairs, was
laid before the full committee today.
In preparing the bill the sub-commit-
tee followed very closely the estimates
submitted by the secretary of the navy,
making but few changes. The esti-
mates of the secretary amounted to
$27,975,9 14, and the total amount rec
commended by the subcommittee is
$27, 6S7, $780, The estimates of 1915, $50 for
the bureau of navigation submitted by
the secretary is cut down by the SUBJ
committee to $14S, 000 The total run
ming expenses of the navy, the esti-
mates for which were SIS, APO, $50, are
cut down to S15.332, 9O5. Under the
head of increase of the navy" there
| is appropriated $500, 600, a reduction
of 100000 from the departments esti-
mates. 1t is learned positively that
this reduction is directly due to the Car
negie armor plate disclosure, as the
! is now debited against it's qrmor ac-
counts.
The total Of the bill is considerable
of an advance on the navy bills for the
last two Congresses. This is due to
the increase of ships and their need
of men and supplies. The number Of
enlisted persons was increased from
$3.50 to 5000 by the act of 1893 This
alone requires marked increases fol
pay of men, The new cruisers have
made necessary an increase for Goa

Washington, March 21-The presi-
dent is carefully listening to the argu-
ments of the politicians and others,
addressed to him regarding the seig-
niorage bill The best information OBJ
tainable is that he has not yet made
up his mind what action to take
Messrs. Tracy, Dunphy and other
anti-silver congressman, say they be-
lieve the bill will be vetoed
On the other hand the Democratic
senators who voted for the bill are
generally very hopeful that the presi-
dent will sign it.
The message which the president
sent to the New York delegation advis-
ing them not to come to Washington
they think, indicates he has decided
to approve the bill and does not think
it necessary to argue the point, view
quite different from that of the New
Workers themselves.
The president has until the Goth to
decide what he shall do with the bill.

ENARs ARE GRoUNDLEss.
Revenue Bill VIII Collect 100000
600 More Than is Needed.

Revenue Bill VIII Collect $3O,OOO,-
600 More Than is Needed.
Washington, March 21-The esti-
mates of the amount of revenue which
the tariff bill as reported to the Senate
will probably show are that the total
amount will be about 1881, 100000. This
is reduction of $13,OOOOOO and $14,OOO,
900 from the estimates in the first bill
reported to the committee. The prin-
cipal reduction is made in the inter-
nal revenue part of the bill, through
the restoration of the present tax
rates on domestic cigars and cigarettes,
which amounts to a loss of over $10,-
000, 600 There will also be falling
off on tin plate, caused by changing
the duty on that Importation from
1 Ills cents to 1 cent a pound.
The change in the fruit schedule,
whereby bananas, pine apples and Co
coanuts are taken from the dutidble
list, will make up the other principal
items of loss AS the bill stands, if
the estimate is correct, it will produce
at least $3O,OO0,OOO more of revenue
than will be needed
The change made in the sugar sched-
ule will not cause a showing in the
estimates different from the sub-com-
mittee bill, as the first estimate was
made upon sugar testing 80 degrees
fine
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1894-03-22

of $4,000. For construction and ma
dhinery the departments estimates
were $5,955,025, and this entire amount
has been allowed by the sub-commit-
tee.
No new naval vessels are provided
for in the bill in its present form. 1t
is probable, however, that provision
for three or four new torpedo beats
will be inserted by the full committee.
A proposition to that effect is how
pending. 1t does not contemplate a
new appropriation for the torpedo
boats, but the use of funds heretofore
appropriated and not used. Such funds
are available from the amount allow
ed for a dynamite cruiser similar to
the Vesuvius, which cruiser is not
likely to be built The torpedo boats
are small and inexpensive crafts.
No project for battleship nor other
big craft has yet been put in the bill.

JOHNSON WAS A BAD MAN,
Little on the Stand in His own
Behalf.

Little on the Stand in His Own
Behalf.
Olathe, Kan. March 21.-The testi-
mony in the Banker Little murder trial
today was to the effect that Johnson
was a bad character.
In the deposition of j. H. Dukenart,
which was read, it was stated that
Dukehart was in the drug store with
Johnson just previous to the killing,
and that the latter, referring to Little,
had said, with an oath:
I'll kill the wretch on sight"
In the afternoon, Little took the
stand in his own defense. On the day
of the murder he had large sum of
money in his possession and had the
pistol to protect himself. Shortly after
leaving home he met Johnson and sa-
luted him in the usual manner In
reply Johnson called him a foul name.
They passed. and met again shortly
afterwards. This time it was in front
of a drug store. AS Little approached,
he drew his revolver and shouting,
You have been bounding me all day,
I'll not stand it any longer" he pointed
the revolver at Johnson and fired. John
son reeled into the gutter and died in
a few minutes"
Little will be cross-examined tenor
row

IS BECOMING GRAVE.
European Vessels Gave Aid to the
Insurgents.

European Vessels Gave Aid TO the
Insurgents.
Rio De Janeiro, March 21.-The Por-
tuguese warships were allowed to leave
the harbor under the stipulation impos-
ed by the Brazilian government that
Admiral Da Cana and the insurgent
officers and men who are with him
should remain on board the Portuguese
ships when the question Of their ulti-
mate destination has been settled be-
tween the two governments.
The international complications aris-
ing from the revolt and subs equent
surrender of the Brazilian war vessels
in these waters is assuming q grave
aspect.
There is considerable excitement here
in regard to the action of the Portu-
guese naval officers who have so far
protected Admiral Da. Cana and the
insurgents who are with him. 1t is
feared the action of the Portuguese in
giving shelter TO the rebels will lead
to a dangerous condition of affairs.
This is all the more likely as it ap-
pears President Peixoto mas obtained
possession of important documents
(which show beyond a doubt that GER
tain European vessels Systematically
gave aid to the insurgents.

ALL HOPE HAS GONE.
Prendergast Must Dance on Air
Tomorrow.

IHfenUerS8sI MUST Oance on Alr
Tomorrow.
Ottawa, ILL.,, March 21.-The Illinois
supreme court has refused to grant a
isupersedeas in the case of Prender-
CAST, the murderer Of Carter Har-
rison, who is sentenced to hang Fri
day.
AS calmly as if allowing a litigant
ten days in which to file abstracts and
briefs, Chief Justice Baker this after
noon killed the last hope Of Prender
CAST for further movement in the
courts for either a stay Of proceedings
or a new loophole by which he may
escape outraged justice. The judges
filed solemnly into the court room, and
after few unimportant decisions in
civil cases, Chief Justice Baker opened
the docket at the criminal page and
said:
People No. 81, Prendergast VS.. The
People; motion for writ of error, and
that the writ be made a writ of super
sedeas. The court has carefully exam
| ined the record, abstract and briefs in
full and has concluded to deny the ap-
plication.''
This was ALL but it decided that the
judgment of Judge Brentanos court,
and the conduct of the trial of the
murderer of Carter Harrison, had been
fully Endorsed by the highest court of
Illinois, and that the case was prac-
tically closed forever All that can
now interfere between Prendergast
and death on Friday is the governor S
respite, and the latter is absent from
the state.
Mr. Gregory, who was in Ottawa,
said the governor would be asked for
a reprieve, and that an application
would be made to the United States
court for a writ of habeas corpus on
the ground that the state court mis-
construed the constitution of the
United States.
Prendergast was apprised by the
authorities at the Jail Immediately
after the announcement was made and
all he had in his pockets was taken
from him. He made a great protest
when they took his lead pencil.
IF 1 am going to die, 1 will need
that" he said. 81 have some serious
writing to do
| Prendergast'S attorneys, at a late
hour this evening, reported that they
this city and placed the matter before
them. Their point was that the state
! court refused Prendergast permission
to appear as his own attorney. Thu
federal judges agreed to consider the
points raised and will render decision
tomorrow.
Upon his application to Judge Woods
for a writ of habeas corpus, Judg'
Bum. Seamen and Jenkins, met Judgt
Woods. From $50 until midnight they
considered the constitutional point
raised and announced a decision would
