can papers, just received here, say that
the Indian uprising in Peru has beer
quelied. The government sent Colone
PARA, an experienced Indian fighter
against Jacobo, with good infantry and
cavalry and two gatling guns. In small
parties the soldiers penetrated into ths
mountains in pursuit Of the savages
whom they encountered in several camps
Battle was given by the Indians with
the result that the gatiings so depleted
the rebels that old Jacobo, their chief
was hunted down with few hundred
braves. Colonel PARA united his com
mand in such a position as to rake the
camp, and thus practically the uprising
was exterminated.
The stua ton in Uruguay is critical
The government troops have been worst
ed in their encounters with the rebels
and there is a strong movement in favor
of deposing President Borda and estab-
fishing a triumyirate.

AGRARIANS HAD TO HAVE 1T.
London, Dec. 31-The Times Berlin
correspondent records the extreme irri-
tation manifested by business men that
the regulations for stock and produce
exchanges in the bourse bill. coming in
to operation in the new year, were pub
lished only thirty-siX hours before the
end Of the year.
the whole of the regulations" says
the Times correspondent, "are pervaded
by drill sergeant spirit of an excessive
ly calling character. The measure is a
gigantic experiment instituted In the
hope of satisfying the demand of the
Agrarians, but it's prospects are not
rosy. The produce exchange at Halle
has already been dissolved, and the
Stettin and Brunswick exchanges have
decided to create free associations to re-
place the bourses. Everything points
to a struggle between the government
and the commercial community, and it
is not unlikely that the government will
soon regret yielding to the Agrarian
clamor. The members Of the Berlin
bourse, at meeting last night, attend
ed by all the firms interested in the grain
trade, unanimously decided to establish
a new private organization despite the
difficulties raised by the government. 1t
is expected that the rope, oil and spirits
market will follow suit"
