st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. 9.-The require
ments of the funeral of Edward ].
McBridge We're the most unique that
ever marked a funeral in st. Louis.
The deceased was an accomplished
musician and an expert banjoist. His
dying request was that the only music
at his funeral should be from the BAN
jos of his friends, they to make the sell
ectiOns. Among the selections played
by trio of banjoists were "Massa's
in The Colo, Cold, Ground" and an
air from the Bohemian Girl" These
were favorite tunes with the deceased.
The body was then taken to the st.
Louis crematory.
McBridge was the only person but
one who could play the overture of
William Tell on the banjo. 1t was the
second time that ever such a funeral
took place in the United States, the
other being in New York several years
ago when the services consisted of
classical selections by six banjoists.

A BRAZILIAN SLAUGHTER PEN.

New York, Oct. "a dispatch to the
Herald from Rio Janeiro, says:
Late reports from Caundos place the
number of persons killed in the battle
there a few days ago at 1000. The
reports also state that the fanatics
now admit that Antonio Conselheiro,
their leader, was killed.
Few details of the battle have been
received, but there is no doubt that
the fight was one of the largest in the
number of persons killed that ever oc-
CURED in Brazil. While there is a
probability that the number OF dead is
less than is now estimated the reports
show that the battle was literally a
slaughter of the fanatics, who were
hemmed in on all sides by govern
ment troops, and armed principally
with knives and swords, were practi-
cally helpless under the steady rifle
fire of the soldiers.
This One-sided fighting continued for
several hours. and at the end of the
time hundreds of fanatics lay dead in
heaps all over the ground which they
had so long held from the government
The Brazilian order was to "annihilate
the fanatics" and it was obeyed to the
best ability of her soldiers.
COnselheirO, it is authoritatively
stated, was killed as he urged his fore
es on to last stand for their lives.

LOCAL WEATHER FORECAST:
MILWAUKEE is SHORT OF COAL.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 9.-Milwaukee
is threatened with a soft coal famine.
In order to meet the present contracts
the dealers are borrowing from each
other with promises of returning the
coal when their Individual supplies
come in. Official reports from all
coal yards in the city backed up by
freight bills, show the receipts for the
year ending October 10. to have been
100000 tons. The amount required to
supply the trade, rated at last years
basis is 100000 tons. This leaves
100000 tons to be landed here during
the next two months when the season
of navigation will close. Records
show that December is the latest
date on which boats have left the low
er lake ports for Milwaukee. Dock
men say it will be impossible to bring
the needed amount of coal here before
the close of navigation, even under
most favorable circumstances.
