Rio Janeiro, Nov. 13.--iis5ssar Viera,
one of the governments supporters in
the Brazilian senate, declared III an
open session of that body that tie op-.
position had predicted tie death OF
President Moraes before Nov. O. This
statement. taken in connection with
the alleged plot which led to the re-
cent attempt to kill tho president,
caused a sensation. Senor Earcelos,
of the opposition, protested Vigorously
against the charge. In the chamber of
deputies Seabria, in an attack upon
the opposition, declared that the party
was made up of anarchists. This
caused a hot discussion in that body
The many charges made have caused
the opposition to publish manifesto
denying any responsibility for the at
tempt on President Moraes' life. This
manifesto, which sets forth that the
attempt grew out of discomfort IN the
army was not well received. Com
parative quiet reigns in Rio, though
the chamber of deputies has passed
measure declaring that the city is I'M
der martial law. An armed patrol
surrounds the city.
