further attempts at Iynching will
not be attempted and that the law

how the end is attained so that

An agreement should be entered

NOW A NAVAL BATTLE.
TeIxOto's Dynamite Throwers swoopins
Down on Mello.

Rio DE JANEIRo. Jan. 24.-After a long
delay, puzzling alike to the people who
continue loyal to the government and to
the insurgent leaders, Peixoto has given
orders to the new warships purchased in
Great Britain and the United States to
sail southwark and begin the long expect
ed naval contest which in all probability
will decide the struggle for supremacy be-
tween Bra2i's chief magistrate and those
who are seeking to overthrow him.
Word was received here that the Ncthe-
roy, America, Aurora and Parnahy ba
reached Bahia on their way from Pernam-
buco to Rio. They are reported to be fully
manned and in better condition for fight
ing than it was supposed their officers
would be able to get them, considering the
fact their crews are made up of mixed ma
tionalities.
The dynamite gun aboard the Nictheroy
has been subjected to a number of further
tests and is now said to be working to the
satisfaction of the officers of that vessel
A great deal of comment has been eX-
cited by the visit of the insurgeut Admiral
da CANA to Admiral Benham. 1t con-
firms the rumOrs current here for some
time that Da CANA has made proposals to
Admiral Benham to act as mediator be-
tween the insurgents and the Brazilian
government. The conference lasted for
four hours. The nature of it up to the
time of sending this dispatch is kept Sc
cret. The information that the govern
ment's war vessels had sailed from PEI
nambucO, it is believed, waS~conveyed to
Da CANA by some of his adherents in the
north, and his visit to Admiral Benham
was the result of this news.
