FUTILE PLOT.
Scheme to Capture Rio for the Insur-
gents Nipped Before Ripe.

copyrighted 1894 by the Associated PressD
NEW YORK, March l9.-The following
has been received from the Associated
Press correspondent at Rio de Janeiro
under date OF Feb. IA:
A proposed uprising in the city OF Rio
in favor of the rebels has come to an in
glorious end. 1t was pretty plot, and in
it were involved a number of prominent
citizens and few officers OF the national
guard. Had the conspirators used COM
mon sense they would have succeeded In
carrying out their plans.
The details of the plot were worked out
on Friday night. The citizens, with arms
under their coats, were TO go on Monday
morning to the San Sento. Conceicao and
Sand hills, garrisOned by the government:
The officers therein were in the plot and
were to admit them and then join them
with as many of their soldiers as they
could persuade to do so. TIE other sol
| diers were to be overpowered or Killed
The rebel fleet, at the first shot, or
given signal, was to hurry in and LAND its
men to help the plOtters. Their total force
would be somewhat over 900 men; 1T
would occupy a strong position and would
probably be rapidly increased by yolun-
teers from the city, So far The plot was
strictly business. To tue exurbeut Brazil

Ergo, it had already succeeded; Ergo. they
might boast about It and SO
they did. Nearly every conspi-
razor went about telling his
friends that the next morning Peixoto was
to be humbled and the revolution was to
be successful.
The British, who were very intimate
with the rebels, we're of course notified and
the two principals went SO Ear to post no.
tices informing their clerks they heed not
come to business Oh Monday If there was
heavy firing. In less an hour every one IN
the commercial quarter knew that some
thing was going on Sunday and Monday.
Even the plot came near succeeding
through the influence OF another opera
bouffe idea.
For although the government were full
" aware of the conspiracy, nothing was
Immediately done 10 thwart It. All day
Sunday nothing was done or said TO OBJ
struct the success of the uprising. 1t was
only on Sunday evening when the rebel
fleet anchored close to the city
that any action was taken. The
SUSPENDED regiments were then moved
and a number of arrests of officers
and citizens were made. It is said fifteen
officers were shot. II so it was done
secretly.
a member of President Peixoto's cabi-
net informed the Associated Press cor
respondent positively and mysteriously
that fifteen persons were really shot. and
another minister, with equal emphasis,
declared 1t was false.

SOUND THE HEWGAG.

MASSILoN, Ohio, March I9.-From pres
emit indications the Coxey army will be
ready To march from here next Sunday.
But few of his followers have arrived thus
Ear, but every days mails brings letters
from various parts of the country saying
that companies are being organized and
that they will be on hand to join the
army. Coxey came to towa FROM,
his farm today and after reading
number of encouraging letters he re-
marked: wont things be lively next
week by this timer Do you know that
this theosophy idea Is making wonderful
etfects 1t is surprising To note how inter-
ested an audience becomes when / address

OF my success in this undertaking. l tru-
ly believe this movement IS the second
coming of christ
Coxey and Carl Brown, his assistants,
say it is ridiculous TO think of failure in
connection with the movement. They say
that they cannot fail. They have planned
an attack, Retreat and a method of form
ing a second attack. There will be no dis
order.
'.The conduct Of the army" said Coxey
will be as the name implies-.Army of
Peace"
Extensive preparations are being
made at the Coxey farm. A red
and green baud wagon with a
high platform will be usei from
which 20 address the crowds. In the cen
ter there Will be huge red wheel with
five miles of good roads petitions wound
on it. At every stopping place the assem-
bled crowd will be invited to sign their
names. After reaching Washington the
five miles OF petitions will be unloanded
on congress. There are banners with in
scriptioDs as follows: Interest -Dearing

Will 10 Men. But Death to the Shylock of

OMAHA, Neb., March 19-The Union
Pacific wage conference was resu med this
morning, the engineers presenting their
side of the case. The telegraphers had
left the main conference and were with
Superintendent of Telegraph Korty, en-
deayoring to settle their difference in re-
gard to over time. Little progress had
been made when the conference took
noon recess
Immediately after assembling in the
afternoon the operators proposed TO
Mr.. Korty that a stenographer be
called in, the differences existing be noted
and the conference be dropped. To this
Mr.. Korty demurred. The operators rep
resentatiyes pointed out the tutility OF
proceeding, showing that not siugle
point had been agreed upon, but MIR. korty
insisted on going ahead, some
discussion followed and the con-
ference agreed to abandon the
rules and regulations consideration for the
time and take up the wage schedule They
began the work, station by station, COM
mencing at Council Bluffs, and when adj
tournament was taken this evening had
gotten as far west as Lexington Nebraska.
In this time the operators had made two
concessions and the company had made
none.
During the afternoon the engineers en-
tertained Mr.. Dickinson in the presence of
Mr.. Clark, putting the general manager of
the Union Pacific in a hole on the
overtime question. Mr.. Dickinson con-
Ceded that engineers of the fast mail were
entitled to extra pay. The engineers as
serted that men on slow trains who were
willing to make fast time and could not on
account of the compaDy's fault, should
also be allowed extra pay. This matter is
still unsettled. The afternoon closed with
the cost of engine mileage on different
roads under discussion. The engineers
have one set of tables and Dickinson an
other, and each side insists that its tables
are correct.
After the adjournment the engineers
said an agreement was apparently out OF
the question. They do not hope TO come
together on the rules and regulations at
any point.
