vive President Victorino Not Friendly.
Trouble Feared.
New York Nov "A dispatch to
the Herald from Buenos Ayres, says:
The Herald's correspondent in Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil, sends word that Vice
President Victorino did not visit Mo
aes after the attempt to assassinate
the latter last Friday, nor did he at
tend the funeral and burial of Minis
ter of War BetancOurt, who was killed
in the affair. His attitude has caused
great deal of comment.
Gen. Canturia has been appointed to
succeed Gen. Betancourt as minister
of war.
The principal officials of the navy
have expressed to the government
their adhesion to its policy.
The situation is still regarded as
grave in Rio Janeiro. The police are
watching the offices of opposition
newspapers, fearing there will be at
tacks made upon them, by citizens.
The troops remain under arms ready
to quell any outbreak.
Imperialists in Brazil are preparing
to make a demonstration at the fun
eral of Count MOtta Mais, who was
physician to the late Emperor Don Pc
drO and whose death occurred yester-
day.
A message has been presented in the
chamber of deputies demanding that
martial law be continued in Rio jan
GIRO, because of the existence of a con-
spiracy against the government, and
that a pension be granted to the fam
lily of Gen. Betancourt. Five men,
bers of the opposition have gone over
to the government side OF the cham
Der. 1t is asserted that the murderer
of Gen. Betancourt has made revela-
tons and that the government now
knows the plans of the conspirators
who have been plotting it's overthrow.
An official statement has reached Rio
Janeiro that in the recent fight in San

ed eight Italians, the aggressors were |

GUATEMALAN REFUGEES.

San Francisco, Nov. 9-Gen. David
Fuentes, the prime mover in the re-
cent revolution in Guatemala and COM
mander of the insurgent forces, has
arrived here from the south on the
steamer City of Sidney. When his
plans failed Fuentes and Morales fled
to Mexico, but were ordered to leave
their first hating place, Tapachula, by
President Diaz, who feared interna-
tional complications if he allowed
them to remain upon Mexican soil.
Therefore the went to the City of Mex
leo. whence they made their way to the
coast. While conceding that Barrios,
his brother-in-law is master of the sit
uation in Guatemala, Fuentes says
that the feeling of rebellion is still very
strong there and he expressed the
opinion that the Barrios administra-
ton would not last much longer. The
general attributes his defeat to the
fact that his force which was badly
in need Of proper equipment only num-
bered about 5000, while the govern
ment had at least $4,000 men in the

HE WILL BE THE LEADER OF
THE FOLLOWERS OF THE
DEAD CAN0VAS.
CarlistS Are FavOring Weyler And
Will Grace The Reception On His
Arrival At Santaniar-RO-
tledO Openly PrOnOunleS
For Weyler.

New York, Nov. "a dispatch to
the Herald from Madrid says:
On Monday Sener Robledo made an
important speech to his adherents.
About 400 persons were present. AT
ter abiding to the national loss sus-
tanned by the death of Canovas, he pro-
ceeded to say that the Conservative
party in Spain no longer exists. He
declared bitter determinations against
those Conservatives who have gone
over to Silvela, and severely cenSured
Marshal Martinez for his behavior
since Canovas' death.
He eulogized Gen. Weyler and prais-
ed Canovas' memory for having kept
him in office in Cuba through thick
and thin and he drew a comparison be-
tween Canovaists and Silvelaists
strongly in favor of the former, and
said if the Liberals fail in the present
program it is all up with Spain.
He declared that the Spaniards rec
ognized Gen. Weyler's success and
condemned the Autonomist regime.
He said the Liberal government has
dreams every night as to where Gen.
Weyler is going to disembark, but that
the government does not know what
Gen. Weyler thinks, because it is going
to ask him.
He concluded by saying that he APP
proved of Gen. Weyler's views and
that he was resolved to come to an un-
derstanding with him.
Romero Robledos speech is consid-
cred throughout Madrid as a wonder
full piece of oratory and it has created
a great sensation here.
on Tuesday afternoon at o'clock
Romero RobledO's leading adherents
will meet in private council. This
meeting, it is understood, will ask for
the converting of the assembly in De-
cember to consult as to a memorial in
honor of Canovas. to propagate these
doctrines of Romero RobledO and to
arrange a manifestation in favor of
Weyler.
The Carlists held a meeting a SAINT
ander in honor of Gen. Weyler on Fri
day. During the speeches Gen. Wey-
Ter was flatteringly spoken Of His
health was drunk and the body re-
solved to attend the demonstration on
Gen. Weyler's arrival at Santander.

REAR ADMIRAL RHIND DEAD.
One of The Most Gallant Commanders
OF The Navy.

OF The Navy.
New Yirk, Nov. 9.-Rear Admiral
Alexander Holden Rhind is dead in his
home in this city. He had been con-
fined to his bed for five weeks.
Admiral Rhind was born in this city
October 81, 1921, his father being
prominent ship owner in those days,
who afterward became distinguished
in the diplomatic service of his coun-
try as plenipotentiary TO CONSTANT
nople in 1927.
After receiving an education in this
city, the future admiral entered the
navy as a midshipman in 1888, receiv-
ing his appointment from Alabama.
He became lieutenant March II, 1915
and at the breaking out of the civil war
was in command of the steamer Cru
sader, one of the south Atlantic block
ade squadron.
He performed operations in Edward
Sound for which he received the thanks
of the navy department and was in
command of the Keokuk during the at
tack on Charleston, April !, 1868, when
he ran his ship to within $50 feet of the
walls of Fort Sumter, drawing the fire
of all the forts upon her. She was
struck ninety times in thirty minutes
and nineteen shot hulled below the
water line. She floated during the bat
tie, but sank early the following morn
ing, but all hands were saved.
Through the next year Commander
Rhind was in James river assisting
Gen. Grant, and commanded several
vessels, among them the Paul Jones,
the Wabash and Agawam. 1t was at
the attack on Fort Fisher, however,
that he won his greatest renown. Pres
ton and a volunteer crew from his own
ship, commanded the Louisiana,
which, loaded with 215 tons of gun
powder and bombs set to explode by
clock work, was towed close to the
fort. The officers and men were taken
off by the steamer Wilderness. The
powder boat blew up as expected, but
did little injury to the fort.
This operation was suggested by Gen.
Benjamin F. Butler and Admiral Por-
ter, who detailed the officers in his re-
port, said: Commander Rhind and
Lieutenant Preston, engaged in the
most perilous adventure shat was per-
haps ever undertaken. rs an incentive
l beg leave to recommend them fol
promotion. None of this squadron con.
sidered that their lives would be saved
and Commander Rhind and Lieutenant
Preston had made an arrangement to
sacrifice themselves in case the vessel
was boarded, thing likely to happen
At the close of the war Capt. Rhind
served on the Congress for time, was
lighthouse inspector in 1S76-7S, when
he was commissioned commodore and
was president of the board of inspec-
ton in 1SSO-S2, and October 80, 1888 he
was promoted to rear admiral, and was
retired the following day, having
reached the age limit. He never mar
ried.

THAT CHINESE RAID.
Intense Excitement Among Miners and
Merchants.

Intense Excitement Among Miners and
Merchants.
Streator, ILL.,, Nov. 9.-The announce
ment that Cinnamon would be placed
in the mines of the Northern Illinois
coal field has caused an immense
amount of excitement here and a call
has been issued for a full convention
of the district to be held next Wednes-
day afternoon in this city. Every shaft
will send delegates and in the mean
time the various organizations will get
together and take action.
1t is understood that Wednesdays
meeting will be of Importance to the
craft throughout the state, as it is
claimed that if Cinnamon are allowed
to go to work here and elsewhere it
will only be a matter of time when
mines employing that kind of labor
will be able to undersell those employ
ing skilled hands and thus prices will
be again forced down. The situation
is looked upon by business men as
most serious.
The Chinese question has put an en-
tirely new phase upon it. 1t means to
Streator alone the displacement of
about 5000 men.

chairman aud IN hnr union,


H. l.. Chapman, Democratic candidate
for governor of Ohio, is finding out that
he is badly handicapped by his record to-
ward labor unions, and his supporters
who have been attempting to prejudice
the worklngmen against Mr.. Hanna have
about come to the conclusion that that
sort OF argument has about all the quail
ties OF boomerang.
The Central Labor Union OF Columbus
held a meeting Wednesday night, at
which some resolutions were adopted.
They are mol calculated to prove that
Mr. Chapman Is friend OF labor. The
secretary of the Central Union reported
that Chapman had been the first man In
Ohio "a cut prices and the first to oppose
an advance OF wages for the miners
Heretofore Chapman had always refused
to assist the miners when they were on a
strike, bot this year. since his nominal
tion for governor. he has contributed
some money.
The resolutions adopted following
these charges and a discussion of the
question among the members OF the Gem
trail Labor Union, advise workingmen to
inquire of Candidate Chapman or his
managers If 1t is true that he is a heavy
stockholder in the Columbus Bicycle
Works, which locked out Its employees
for Joining the union, and whether the
concern is not entirely non-union at this
time, The resolutions also quote the
assertion of Columbus labor paper that
Mr.. Chapman said that III the miners
union was in the internal regions, where
all other unions should De, the country
would be fit to live and do business in"
This hostile attitude OF Mr.. Chapman
against organized labor Is not likely to
strengthen his chances, In view of the
fact that the Popocracy of Ohio is at
tempting to turn the labor vote against
the Republican party, especially at a
time when labor In Ohio is more general
~ employed in these Republican days
than 1t has been any time during the past
four years.
