HOME FROM BRAZIL.
Minister Bryan Returns After Two
 Years Efficient Service.

Minister Bryan Returns After Two
 Years Efficient Service.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 29. - Charles Page Bryan, United States minister to Brazil, called at the state department yesterday to pay his respects to Secre- tary Hay. He has returned to the United States on leave for the first time in two years and is going from Washington to his home in Chicago. Mir. Bryan reports a considerable im- provement in the financial conditions in Brazil and says that the entire coun- try is tranquil. Aboard the United States steamship Atlanta he personally visited nineteen governors of Brazilian states. This cruise took the Atlanta into many ports where a United States man-of-war never before had been seen and into some where warship of any kind never had been.
 MT. Bryan has devoted himself for the past two years to an earnest effort to cultivate closer trade relations be- tween Brazil and the United States, and now all American products are accorded most favored nation treat ment on entry into Brazil. Minister Bryan in speaking of a published re- port to the effect that Brazil discrimi- mates against American four in favor of Argentine four said that such was not the case; that there was no dis erimination.

Last of the Criminal Business Dis
 posed of for This Term.
 The trial of Martin Gardner and Paul Jackson, the two young men charged with entering the grocery store of Vincenzo De Toro at the cor ner of Scovill and Cole street and talk ing a quantity of tobacco and other goods, besides from $5 to $7 in small change, began in the superior court, criminal side, today before Judge Wheeler and jury. The accused were defended by Attorneys Meigs and Phelan, appointed by the court The evidence was substantially the same as that given in the lower court. De Toro did not know exactly the amount of money that was taken, but it was something like the figures given above. Entrance was effected by breaking q rear window. The accused were taken into custody on the follow ing morning by Patrolman Brickel. They looked to have had an uncom- fortable night, or else had not been at home It had been raining and the boys clothing appeared to have been wet One of them looked as though he had been drinking. A package of tobacco and f>.oout S3 in nickelS and cents were found upon them. The to- bacco they said they had bought and the money they got for work they had done.
 The case was not long one and was given to the jury in the forenoon. The jury was out three-quarters of an hour and returned a verdict of guilty against both. Gardner was sentenced under the indeterminate sentence law to not less than one year and not more than two in the state prison, while Jackson was sentenced to one year in the coun- ty jail The reason Gardner was sen fenced to the state prison was his bad record. This disposed of the last of the criminal business and the court ad- iourned to tomorrow morning. was the longest criminal term held in many years.

Tbe Dt.coxerx o Poor sh,n.

LONDON, Oct % Sir Clements Markham, president of the Royal Geo. graphical society. writes to the papers today appealing for subscriptions to the amount of another E1O,OOO to cover the cost of the Norwegian whaler Nor genen, which has been purchased as a relief ship to the antarctic exploration Ehip Discovery The Discovery on the voyage to Cape Town showed very se- rious defects Although proving her. self an excellent and stiff sea boat, she leaked badly, turned out to be a slow sailor and was found wanting in ade- quate coal capacity. These shortcom- ings, Sir Clements Markham points out. are additional reasons why a re- lief boat for the antarctic expedition is an imperative necessity. As the Dis covery was the first ship built in Great Britain for polar expeditions these rev. elations are disappointing.
