Wickersham Tells Congress What the
Governments Legal Depart
ment Has Been Doing.

Washington. - In his annual report
sent to congress Monday, Attorney
General Wickersham shows that
more than $6000,000 either has been
collected by the government or is in
volved in judgment cases against
firms and individuals for smuggling
and differentiation of imports. He
promises a continuance Of the inves-
tigation now in progress and believes
more indictments for customs frauds
will follow.
There have already been fifty-eight
convictions in the southern part of
New York, says he, and at least a
score more indictments will be found.
In this same connection the attorney
general asks congress to pass law
forbidd}ng revenue men from accept
ing perquisites from importers and
another law granting immunity to &C
cused persons who turn states evil
dence and assist the government in
the prosecution of others. Il is also
demanded that heavier penalty be
placed upon the statute books for i'm

The Encouragement briefly reviews
three of the most important cases
ever brought before the United States
Supreme Court, all of which are now
pending They are the suits to dis
solve the Standard Oil Trust and the
American Tobacco company-the to
bacco trust'-and the suit to deter
mine the constitutionality OF the cor
poration tax law. All these argu-
ments will be presented in January.
Mr.. Wickersham wants the salaries

QUELLS NEW MUTINY
MARINES REBEL IN RIO JANEIRO
AND ARE ALMOST ANNl-
HILATED.
SEIZE A FORT IN THE BAY
Only Surrender When 200 or More Are
Killed and Wounded--Senate De-
clares Setge-Scoutship Joins in
Sedltious Movement.

Rio Janeiro-The soldiers at the
day night, captured the fortress and
withstood bombardment lasting
from $50 Saturday morning until IL
o'clock at night. The rebels were al
most annihilated by the fire from the
land batteries and warships, losing
over 200 killed and wounded.
The scoutship Rio Grande do Sui
joined in the rising, but the mutinous
sailors soon were subdued by their
officers and part of the local garri-
son that remained faithful.
The seditious movement, it is be-
lieved, has now been completely throt-
tied, but the senate, despite the OPP
position of Ruy Barbosa, the former
president of that body, voted to de-
clare a state of siege for 80 days.
The guns of the land batteries
were trained on the island, which lies
In the bay of Rio Janeiro, only short
distance from the city and opposite
the marine arsenal
A heavy fire was directed against
the rebels, and this continued with
out cessation for five hours. Then a
white flag appeared, and it was be-
lieved that the rebels were ready to
surrender, but they asked only for an
armistice, probably for the purpose
of removing the dead and injured.
Two land batteries and two loyal
warships took part in the lombard
ment, and the artillery duel continued
with great violence for many hours.
The decorations of the big guns
caused the whole city to tremble.
Many persons were killed along the
shore and in adjoining streets
The fight against the Rio Grande
do Sui lasted three hours. and among
the killed was one officer. Small
bands of rebels climbed into launches
and drew near the front of the Palacio
Cattete, but they were forced to re-
tire.
