developments, the officers OF the a Fran
cisco say, are expected at Rio de Janeiro
shortly. Admiral De Mello and his war
ships, the Aquidaban and R~epublica, have
not yet arrived off this port, and it does
not seem that there is any immediate
probability Of a naval battle being fought
here. 1t is announced that the United
States and German war ships. acting in
concert, nave notified Da Cana, the rebel
admiral, that the fire of his ships must be
so directed as not to interfere with the
German and American vessels at the an

that she had been reinforced by the Amer
lea, the rebel admiral is said to have put

"A guardsman on duty at Friedrichfeld
was attacked with a bad chill and went

STRIKE OF MINERS.
Three Thousand Men Out Along the
baltimore AZ Ohio RrOad.

PITTSBURG, Jan. 3.-The strike of the
coal miners on the Wheeling division of
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, which was
i~naugurated yesterday, is now complete.
The miners affected are those of the Pitts
burg and Chicago Gas Coal Company, at
Snowden and Gastonville, Hacket county,
at Finley, Henry Florsheim and d. NJ.
Anderson's, also located near Finleyville.
Almost 5000 men are interested and the
struggle will likely be a stubborn one. The
men are determined to remain out until
the 65-cent rate is paid. President Frye, OF
the miners association, says the move
ment is a very important one and much
depends upon the result. Should the men
succeed in winning the strike nothing can
prevent the 65-cent rate being made general
throughout the district.

MUNCIE, Ind, Jan. 3-The death of Mrs.
Peter Mcpherson last evening is making
no end of superstitious gossip here. n few
evenings ago Mrs. Mcpherson was at a
social gathering and some one late in the
evening discovered just thirteen people
present. Another thoughtless person stated
that disaster and death would follow some
member Of the party before the new year
passed, CAS- the Lord would never again
permit those same persons TO again meet
alone" Mrs. Mcpherson, being a suscepti-
bic woman, was much affected and at once
announced that she felt i'll and was con-
vcyed home. She was closely watched, but
grew worse until death relieved her suffer-
ings. Just before her spirit passed away
she opened her eyes and said: THE Lords
will be done" then quietly passed away.

was a surprise when announced. He was
an acting justice of the peace, and one of

had been Respondent for some time because
he had failed to be appointed government
~stOrekeeper by Collector Bracken. He was
also much put out by the defeat of his

gashes in his neck. He was county record

Manifesto by Da CANA.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. 3.-Admiral De
Cana, commander of the insurgent fleet
in the harbor. published yesterday a mani
festo which was intended to counterfeit
the effect of his celebrated declaration Of a
month ago in favor of the monarchy. This
declaration has weakene the cause OF the
insurgents greatly in the last three or four
weeks and has alienated from Mello and
Da Cana several officers who, before its
appearance, had been their trusted friends
and allies. Among the people at large it's
effects nave been still more unfavorable
to the insurgents cause. Consequently, in
his manifesto, yesterday, Admiral Da
CANA asserted that his former declaration
was not a monarchist'S document. This
declaration, as well as other papers at
trIbuted to him. he said in the manifesto
Of yesterday, had been altered and printed
in falsified copies. He had not declared
for the monarchy, but had intended merely
to ask the people of Brazil what form of
republican government they wanted. Other
interpretations of his declaration had not
been made in good faith. This manifesto
has fallen flat. Friends of the republic re-
gard il as a passing maneuver to win sup
port to the insurgents cause. While no
gaining for the insurrection any new re-
publican friends, the manifesto has dis
guSted many of it's former supporters, as

NO SHOW FOR MELLO
The Brazilian Rebellion as Re-
viewed by a Coffee Merchant.
PiexOtO Liked by His People, and Said
to Be in the Right-Admiral Da
Gama'S Latest Proclamation.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3-Thomas Conner, of
this city, has returned from Brazil, where
he has been looking after the coffee inter-
ests of his business house. He was in
Rio at the time of the outbreak of the
Mello rebellion. 1.-The whole affair."" he
says, lis a political fight between the outs
and ms Mello and his party became
jealous of Peixoto's influence and distribu-
ton of patronage. They attempted to
drive him out, but he would not go, and the
people are with him. The Commandment of
the city by Mello's fleet followed. 1t was a
lively time at first and Mello started
in to tear down the town. The i~nterfer-
ence of the naval force of the other
nations, at the request of the business ele-
ment, confined Mello'S operations to the
forts at the harbor entrance and in the
rear of the town. There is very little differ
ence in the business portion of the city
from the prerebellion period. 1t is not true
that the people of Rio are opposed to
Peixoto. He has the confidence of the cit
liens and business interests, save the En-
glish. He has with him the militia, 5000
men under arms, all of whom, with prob
ably some exceptions, are loyal to his gov
eminent. He is in the right. He has given
Brazil a sound business administration,
and 1 believe that he will win the fight.
The Intervention of the foreign war vessels
to prevent a blockade of the port
permits the expectation of coffee, and the
e> port duty being paid keeps the treasury
OF the government In good condition. Mello
recognizes the fact, and it is terribly eX-
asperatng to him to see the coffee-laden
vessels go by his fleet day after day. Once
In possession of the coffee duty he would
