RIO JANEIRO, Jan. 7.-Charges
at the government is suppressing
facts regarding the execution Of

ensational story in the Jornal Do
'ommercio that forty-hve Of these
utineers have suddenly and mysteri-
usly died since the initial outb eak
ovember %, is given absolutely no
eredence. II is interpreted as a lame
tempt by the Government to explain
the absence of the mutineers, who
are believed 10 have been summarily
executed.
According to the Jornal Do Com

others OF the mutineers are reported
70 have died of sun stroke while re-
pairing the fortress on Cobras Island
and eighteen other TO have been &C
cidently suffocated in their cells in the
prison on Villegagnon Island
While there is no sympathy for the
mutineers. the Government is being
roundly condemned for its timidity in
announcing the execution of the guilty
men. Such a policy of weakness IL Is
declared was responsible for tbs

ment is doing its best to block al
