Serious Events Said to BE Happening at
Rio de Janeiro
BUENos AYREs. Jan. 31.-It is re-
ported here that the situation of affairs
at Rio de Janeiro is most critical.
Heavy firing is reported and it is said
that the United States war vessels
have been engaged, with the result
that Adm. da CANA is said, by one re-
port, to have surrendered, and accord
ing to another report to have with
drawn his ships from the immediate
neighborhood of the city of Rio de
Janeiro.
These sensational reports are not yet
confirmed, but there seems to be no
doubt that serious events are happen
ing at Rio de Janeiro, and that the
American admiral has taken energetic
steps to protect American interests.
AS this dispatch is sent a report
reaches here that Adm. da CANA is a
prisoner in the hands of President
Peixoto. 1t is also rumored that the
insurgent man-of-war fred upon the
American fleet, and that the latter re-
turned the shots

PRESERVING FISH.
Freezing Is the Latest Method and tn
Style of tho Future.

Freezing Is the Latest Method and the
Style of the Future.
Science has conquered nature and has
demonstrated that to preserve fish it is
not necessary to salt them. Freezing
is the thing in the future, and San
dusl>y, O., is the place where the first
attempt has been made to carry on the
business in general way. Frozen fish
are taking an important place in COM
merce and in the cuisine, and as the in
dustry becomes more general the de-
inand for salt fish will probably drop
off to great extent
About three years ago a fish commits
sion dealer in Sandusky began to ex-
pertinent with freezing fish, and soon
found that the invention of the ice
making machine would be his saliva
ton. Last year he completed his
scheme and now he has a plant in full
operation. employing twenty-five men
and a capacity of freezing and preserv-
ing many tons of fresh fish each year,
and in year he expects to double the
capacity of the plant.
The method used is very simple, yet
interesting. The fish are unloaded
from the schooners and placed in dress
ing vats, where the refuse matter is re-
moved and the fish sorted and graded
according to the species. This is only
done with the larger fish, but the small
ones are not mutilated The fish are
placed in pans made of metal that will
not rust, being placed in layers and the
pans carried to the cooler. This
cooler is sort of vault filled with pipes
arranged in tiers and compartments
like the shelves of pantry, and
made to fit so perfectly that no space is
| wasted. These pipes are filled with
freezing fluid and the temperature is
zero. From here, after freezing twenty
four hours, the pans are removed to
the preserving vaults, where they are
placed on pipes arranged as in the first
mentioned vaults.
Just step in once, after standing
around in the hot sun of a July day.
OF course overcoats are neglected in
the summer, but in two minutes you
discover yourself in the atmosphere OF
the Arctic regions, and, glancing at a
Thermometer, you will see the mercury
registered at eighteen below zero. A
massive door is opened and before your
eyes is big stock of block wood-no
things are what they seem, for You find
the wood very cold. 1t is the fish that
will be distributed to your market man,
perhaps many years hence. and the
meat is SO frozen that when emptied
from the pans the fish appear like
chunks of wood. and are solid that
they must be thawed seve+al hours be-
fore the fish can be separated.
1t has been demonstrated already
that fish kept frozen at such low de-
gree of temperature will remain per.
feet for a period of years, and il is be-
lieved that the fish may be preserved
ten years, and then be turned over to
the fish dealer fresh as the day they
were caught
Brine is circulated through every foot
of the pipes. and returns to the tank
for redistribution in the space of one

There is nothing to compare of COM

1t is a curiosity to visit its large antique
workrooms, and especially the drying
rooms, filed with the finest skins that
the Hudson Bay regions and the LaD-

to be found the greatest quantity of
moose, deer, and cariboO heads and

ard, polar bear and musk OK skins,
suitable for rugs and robes. This firm
buys its pelts direct from the Indians
in the interior, and the employees, who
speak both French and English tell
many stories of the customs of these
primitive people, who have become
nearly extinct in eastern America,
which seem almost incredible. Their

London Dec. 81 have had very in
teresting time this week explaining our
American politics to the English girls
here at our house. They have seen, in
my American newspapers that party
called Republicans have won the day,
tremendously, in the elections in my
country lately, and so l have been
piled with questions every day and put
through as vigorous an examination as
any American girl ever had on this
subject l am sure. To begin with,
they have, from hearing bits of their
elders conversation, | fancy, or from
the English papers, perhaps, somehow
gotten a certain fondness for Grover
Cleveland, and for the Democratic par
ty in the United States. They think
that this party is the best for them and
their interests, as, perhaps, it Is. | have
been laboriously explaining all / know
of the differences in the platforms and
principles of these two parties, and of
some of the little parties which we
have had cropping up lately, too. do
not know much about politics. but what
! know | certainly had to teach to these
inquirng Englishers here They are
very loyal to their countrys interests,
and are really sorry that our tariff will
have to be reversed again soon, to suit
the new party.
The interest which they take over
here in our politics is surprising. |
have met great many different people
who have, as soon as they found that l
was an American, said something
about the result of the recent elections
at home and asked me if it would af-
feet their markets very soon, and so
forth. The English all are in love with
our Democratic party, and 1t must be
because of its loose protective policy,
j suppose, as they all say their times
are so much better when that party Is
in Office than when we have the Re-
publicans at the helm. OF course, | tell
them that we really cannot run our
country to suit theirs, and If their mar
kets are affected by our frequent
changes of tariff, why, they must only
have to watch out" that's ALL and not
depend upon us to feed their poor and
underpaid workmen by fostering too
much free trade.
Lively Tea Table Debates.
We have great talks. We have ac-
tually become heated in our arguments
at the dinner table o nights, over
these things, but 1t is all great fun.

Special Correspondence of The Tribune.
Quebec, Dec. 3-Every visitor to this
antique city is interested in the ancient
city gates. Even in their modern at
| tire, they remind one of the old military
| regime, as they form a part of the
reconstructed line of Notifications A
rich history is attached to these gates,
and to them the eye of the visitor is
especially drawn. None of the original
gates, with their old grassgrown walls,
is left standing. Prescott and St. Louis,
in 1871, yielded to the necessities of a
later civilization, preserving, however,
much of their unique military charac-
ter, and memorial structures and pie
| turesque archways have been rebuilt
in a style that does credit to the taste
of the public-sprited citizens of Quebec.
of the public-spirted, progressive citi-
zens of Quebec.
A magnificent new portal of masonry,
with towers and medieval appur-
tenances was erected on the site of the
| st. Louis gate in 1877 and 1879; also an
other very imposing entrance, called
Kent Gate, was opened between this
and st. Johns gate at the same time
The foundation of st. Louis gate was
laid by Princess Louise; and as me-
mortal of her father, the Duke of Kent,
J who was at one time commander of the
British forces in Canada, Queen Vie
toria contributed generously to the
other, which was named in his honor.
1t is a very interesting piece of feudal
architecture, with turrets, arrow-slits,
etc.
St. Johns gate is a strong and grace
full structure, though more ancient in
style. 1t was erected in 1869. From the
top of each gate one gets good views of
the oddly planned streets of the Upper
Town. Palace Hope, Prescott and
Mountain Hill gates, the picket flanked
structures which marked the era of 300
years ago, were removed in 1873, and
have never been restored. In ye olden
days the gates were closed at sundown
and opened at sunrise.
Some Ancient Relics.
Quebec is city of relics, both archi-
tectural and antiquarian. AS matter
of course many of the antiquities of
Quebec are well worthy of study. Not
only in public repositories, but in the
homes of many of the old families of
the city also are found rare treasures
and heirlooms, with many quaint old
bits of furniture and bric-a-brac. Quite
recently small mahogany cabinet or
cupboard, said to have belonged to
Champlain, was discovered; certainly
the style of workmanship marks the
founders era of nearly three centuries
ago; also a combined toilet and writ
ing case, said to have been in possession
of General Wolf, and the sword he car
ried when wounded in 1853. Another is
General Montgomery's sword, found
near him when he fell. These and other
ancient relics are deposited for safe
keeping in the museum of the Literary
and Historical society at Morrin col

THE WORLD'S FAIR CRAZE.

Many years ago the example of an
international exhibitor of manufac-
lures and industries was set by the
successful carrying out of the World's
fair in London. 1t was not long be-
fore the example was i'm itated in Par
is, and shortly afterwa I'd the exhibit
ton in what would now seem the lit
tie Crystal palace in New York made
a creditable beginning Of tn series of
American undertakings of the kind.
Another Worlds fair in PARIS, an one
in Vienna, followed by the centennial
exhibition in Philadelphia, brought
the fever to it's elimination and it be-
G an to decline.
France, which carries the financial
!; analysis Of such enterpris, to great
detail, found it profitable TO continue
the series at intervals of about eleven
years; but with these exceptions and
that of the worlds fair, the great ex-
hibitions of the last twenty years have
been most local or devoted to special
ties, like the great electrical exhibit
ton at Frankfort and the colonial and
fisheries exhibition in London.
Now, Notwithstanding the oft-re
peated demonstrations of the pecuni
airy unprofitableness of general fairs,
the fever for them seems to have set
in once more. France is already ar
ranging for one on an immense scale,
to be held in Paris in 1900; Berlin is to
have one in 1896: Japan will have one
in 1895, and smaller ones are announc-
ed in various places.

What is "a team?" Is it an animal
hitched to a wagon, or two or more
animals and wagon, or simply two
animals which are harnesSed up to-
gether? Does the word include the We
hicle? An exiled Bostonian, writing
from Nebraska to Boston paper, con-
fesseS his humiliation when, upon re-
marking that a 'team" had been left
in the street, he was told by cow
boy that he meant a wagon. He adj
mits that the cowboy was right, and
so it seems here. In the State of New
York, where a high standard of Ian
guage prevails, "team' property in
cludes the animals, if more than one,
which haul a vehicle, but not the We
hicle itself; but improperly it is used
to designate any animal or animals
hitched to any vehicle. 1t is not used,
no viewer, to designate the vehicle
without the animals, as seems some
times to be the case in New England.
A synonyme for team in it's degener-
ate sense in New York State is "rig.''
In the more Objectionable phases of
newspaper English a horse and bug
gy are Invariably a rig" and livery
stablemen and farmers boys employ
the same brief and comprehensive
term to almost any vehicle drawn by
anything on four legs.
