SANTOS, Brazil. July 23-Enorts of
the Sac Paulo revolutionists to enter
into negotiations with the govern
ment relative to an armistice have
failed, President Bernardes sending
word to the rebels that they must
face the penalties prescribed by the
laws OF Brazil
The president Of the foreign Cham
Der OF Commerce at Sac Paulo acted
as intermediary for the revolution
lists. who demanded that in addition
to an armistice the government give
them a guarantee that there would
be no reprisals and that the revo-
lutionists would be restored to the
original status,
The governments reply was re-
newed vigor of action, and federal
forces now are gaining advantageous
positions. American observers in Sac
Paulo say that the revoIutionists are
showing nervousness owing to the
failure Of the government to agree to
an armistice and also to their lack
OF success in obtaining the consent
of leading politicians to accept the
presidency rendered them by the
rebels.
Federal troops are continuing their
artillery attack on the rebel outposts
and other positions. The industrial
section of Sac Paulo, which was seiz-
ed by the revolutionists early in the
uprising, has been leveled, and the
rebels are reported to be abandoning
1t to federal forces.
The federals today captured a rebel
airplane which has been flying over
