p4 ANs AssN iAAsu AHess
 Duenos Aires July sa,-While line remnants of lhe military forces Whieh reyolied al Sac raul0 July were he- ing pursued today into the interior af Drazil by federal troops, Governor Da campos. i0nee more installed in his state eahiial, was taking account nf the lamats il suffered from the three weeks Of 'hOmhardmeni, fire and nil- lagn, and at Rio Ianpira President liernafies was faced with inc problem Of eneetlng a solid restoration af the nations disturbed unity,
 "lt is up to us 10 reorganize Brazil in q manner sn that it will be able to renress once for all the possibilities Of such rehellions, through revision Of our constitution, or confess the failure of our form Of government" presi- dent Rernardes Is quoted as deelar- ing last night in replying 10 com. mittes Of Brazilian senators who wait cd upon him with congratulations for the governmental victory,
 Laws ToD Weak
 The president said nc looked upon the Sac l'aufh movement, coming af- ter the revolt at Rio year ago, as evidence of the weakness Of the laws Of Brazil regarding the repression Of sedition. The thirty millions 0f free thinking Brazilians he declared. could net be left t prey to \ handful Of dis contented adveniurers such as had tried to stab tho nation in the back, surprising the government while it was intensely bending its efforts 10 the reconstruction Of tho country.
 The president has also 10 consider the question Of dealing with foreign governments with reference to the damage suffered by the property Of their nations as well as the killing Of foreigners during the revolt. Although estimates of inc total damage are not yet available from official quarters. fl is believed it will run into many mil lions of dollars and that the number of soldiers and civilians killed or wounded will reach many hundreds.
 City Badly Damaged
 According 10 reports not officially verified as yet, some of Sac Paulo's finest structures were reduced to ruins.
 The greatest interest centers in the fate of General Isidoro Lopez, leader of the revolt, who fled to the interior with his troops yesterday morning. For three weeks he ruled Sac paulo as head of the provisional government of the United States of Brazil, which, with the assistance, the rebels hoped. of the states of Parana, Santa Cata- lima, Rio Grande Do Sul, MattQ Crosse and Mnas Geraes, was to have over thrown the Bernardes government in accordance with plot conceived many ago.
 The rebel troops fled the city in two small columns, according to off cial reports, and news of their capture or dispersal by the government troops which are in front as well as behind them, is expected soon. It is thought Lopez may try to find refuge in his home state of Rio Grande where ilf 1S93-95 he was one of the ringleaders in the revolt against President Peix- oto.
 The censorship in Brazil is expected to continue until the country calms down from what Is regarded here as the most dangerous crisis passed since the republic was established in 1889.

OYSTER FAVORS
REMOV|NGC CAR
PLATFORMS
Commissioner Believes They
Are Unnecessary and
Hinder Traffic.

Removal of all street car plat
forms. except those Of Pennsylvania
avenue, is favored by Commissioner
Oyster.
"They hinder the fire department
in responding to alarms and are
constantly causing slowing up Of
traffic" the Commissioner said.
II believe that mushroom lights,
such as replaced the so-called bar
Der poles will serve the purpose. Z"
The Commissioner believes that
if these platforms are removed, the
traffic situation will be considerably
improved in downtown Washington.
They are too cumbersome, and
I believe, unnecessary" Commission
er Oyster continued. "If they were
removed everybody will benefit
by it.
IF had my way, they would all
be taken away"
The Commissioner will probably
ask the Board of District Co,nmis-
sioners to remove all platforms.

In another regulation providing a

an hour around corners.
"As soon as we discovered the
mistake we took immediate steps to
correct it," Commissioner Oyster
said. II have ordered the police
not to enforce. this part Of the regu'
lation, and / m going to take i'm
mediate steps to repeal the action
of the board in setting the eight.

Protests against the eight-mile
speed across intersections were filed
with the Commissioners by the
American Automobile Association.
