Mr.. Assis Brasil then took copy of
the Rio de Janeiro Journal of Commerce

His visit means continuance of the
relations Of good friendship which Bra

Mr.. Roca comes to show us with his
presence his own esteem towards Brazil

frankly, as representative OF the fed

MI Fitzpatrick said that Sir Wilfrid
lntimated that In the present state OF
public feeling in the United States as
indicated in the press it would not be
safe for the governor general

The Wagon Service.

The wagon service Is developing more
system about 1t rs the strike progresses,
and an Instance of this fact was shown
last night when string Of wagons
halted on Market street, at Twelfth and
Fourteenth streets. to convey Benwood
patrons home from the theatres. and
that this service was appreciated was
shown by the big crowd Of passengers.
Enterprising merchants have adopted

wagons and horses pressed into service.

Patrolling the Tracks.

The big force of deputies was In EVIL
dcnce in Benwood more yesterday. and
strung along at intervals of hundred
yards, they remind one of sentrles at
an army camp. Stationing them this
way had the desired effect. No attempt
to place an obstruction on the track
was made, and with the additional force
OF deputies IN the cars, the company's
new men couldn't find fault with the
protection given. The crowd at the
barns that has been Il feature OF the
strike was not to be seen yesterday, and
at o'clock when the largest number
congregated. there wasn't a handful of
people in sight. The deputies walked
up and down their beats. extending
from Forty-cighth street to the south
ern point OF the Riverside. Their lot
was not SO easy as that Of the deputies
in the cars, who smoked and chatted
with each other. and seemed to enjoy
the situation.

The street car strike continues to be
community, and this interest will now
center upon that old fashioned pile
of stone and mortar at the corner of
Sixteenth and Market streets, known as
the Federal building, for at 10 o'clock
this morning Judge John J. Jackson
will open special term of the United

consideration of cases arising out of the
strike. AT least four persons will face

Although Judge Jackson declines to
talk of the situation, In advance of the
opening of his term of court this morn
ing. 1t is known NAT he Is determined
TO incucate into this community a
wholesome respect for the authority Of
the United States. He has heard with
surprise of the opposition his deputy

mined TO end such state Of affairs. !,
1t was stated last night that Marshal
Thompson would have additional force
II he finds 1t Is needed. He is empower

wants. However, 1t is not yet known
that he will need more men, nor is it
likely that he will. 1t is generally be-

Deputies for Ohio.sIdc,

Late last night 1t was stated that the
Wheeling Railway Company would
probably apply to the United States
marshal for the southern district of
Ohio for protection in the operation Of
Its road in the towns over the river
particularly in Martins Ferry. where
the most serious Instructions have been
found. The rumor could not be con-
firmed. owing to inability to see the OIL
GERS Of the company. 1t seems probable
that such step would be taken, be-
cause the deputy marshals under Mar
shall Thompson have no authority out
side the state Of West Virginia.

THE STRIKE MONDAY.

Judge Jackson arrived Monday .af-

TO open n special term of the United

M. for tho consideration OF strike
cases. AT least four men Will be
before the court to-day on the charge
OF obstructing the operation of the
road.
The deputy marshals made two
more arrests, both In the afternoon.
The first occurred ut Forty-thIrd
street, the person arrested being
Charles Reuter-. In upper Benwood,
later In tho afternoon. Wuverly
Pultz was placed under arrest. Both
are In the Ohio county Jail.
1t Is said the railroad company
will apply for protection of It's Ohio
side properties to the United States
marshal for the southern district Of
Ohio.
a rumor that smallpox had bro
] ken out among the non-union men
Mt the Forty-elghth street barns was
false. The runor was generally cir
culated.
Marshal Thompson Is authorized
to deputize as many more men rs
he needs TO control the situation.
1t is not thought more deputies will
be needed, however.
