Buenos Ayres, Jan. 1.-THE rumors
circulated here yesterday of revolu-
tion in the Republic of Paraguay turn
out to be well founded. The revolt

zero, General Escobar. Colonel j. A.
Sccurra, the minister of war; Senior
Mario, a cabinet minister. and Sena-
tor Freitas. President Acevel resign

occurred in the chamber of deputies,
during which. Senator Facando ms
fran, the president of the hygienic
council, was killed and General Cabal-
lero, Senators Miguel and Corbalan
and Deputy Fernando Carreras were
severely wounded. The. congress OF

eminent in the hands of the vice pres

Chicago, Jan. 13.-A book entitled
"Schley at Santiago" is on the press
in this city and will be bound within
the next ten days. The author is
George e. Graham. war correspondent,
who had exceptional facilities for
gathering materials as he was with
the Spanish feet and thus in position
to tell the story of Santiago without
fear or favor" The book is said to
have the unqualified Endorsement of
Rear Admiral Schley, who read and
corrected the proof shets.
When President Roosevelt was gov
ernor of New York he was present
when Mr.. Graham gave an account of
the battle to state officials and mem
hers of the Legislature and said: 81
am sure you feel as pleased at having
listened to Mr.. Graham as | do, for |
have listened to the best account |
have ever heard or read OF the naval
fighting during this war"
This book is the first and only com
plete story of the work of the flying
squadron, commanded by Schley Mr..
Graham was assisted by his camera,
which enabled him to add many illus
trations 1t is free of virulent and
personal attacks and its aim is to
give truthful statement of every oc-
cumence.
In connection with the arrival of the
New York. Mr.. Graham says:
THE commodore reached over to
me took my glasses and looked search
ingly to the east, saying slowly as he
did so: There is the Texas and there
is the Vixen, but l don't see the New
York. and then. as he kept the glasses
up an instant, he had evidently found
her, for he remarked: Yes there she
is. can tell her by her smoke This
was at LAS o'clock and the Colon had
gone ashore at 1915. while Capt. Cook
had received the surrender at 14S
AT 2 o'clock just as the New York
got where we considered her in signal
distance Commodore Schley ordered
the signal raised A glorious victory
has been achieved Details later

Johnson Accuses Parent Who
Is Dead 10 Exienuat|on Of
His Own Misd00ds.

bridgeport, Conn, March ..-For the
sins Of his father Percy l.. johnson 10
now serving a ten-year sentence In tho
state prison. The reason OF Johnsons
absconding TO Mexico after having USED
trust funds TO the amount of $4,000 was
revealed IN court today, when deposit
ton he made was read.
Joseph w. Johnson. father OF the young
lawyer. was executor of several estates
when he died. He also held several trust
funds. Percy L. Johnson took up tho
duties where his father left OF. He found
that his father was short In his accounts.
To cover these shortages the son used
trust funds in bucket-shop gambling.
hoping TO make enough TO pay his dead
fathers defalcations. Between $ll,Ooo ana
$4,000 was the alleged shortage.
His says in his deposition that with dis
grace staring him in the face and with
the hope of protecting his fathers name
he gave his personal note for 5000 TO the
Connecticut National bank and gave as
collateral security an r. T.. Wheeler mort
gage belonging to the Wordin estate.
Then he began the wild game OF the
stock market. beginning by taking few
dollars at first buying on margin ana
taking money enough from the securi-
ties he held to cover drops In price on the
stock he was watching. He made q Jew
gains, took in sometimes several nun
dreds Of dollars, but never enough at any
time TO cover all OF the shortgae. And
so with the wild hope OF making great
strike and getting on the right OF some
big stock operation whereby he would
clear enough TO pay all shortages, he kept
speculating and standing loss after loss.
