Bat the most fantastio devices were adopted for robbing everybody.

Some-- tbese are extremely fanny. There was an alarm clock la the offioe, and the rascals passed this otTapoa the ignorant peasants as a tele-graph instrument. They wo aid sound the alarm at intervals four or Are times, representing the noises as messages to and from ihe Hamburg Ship Company and the Emperor of America arranging the peasant's business satisfactorily, and for these would be paid large sums. Then a bogus doctor would examine him on behalf of the American Government and accept a bribe for a certificate that he was unfit to serve in the American army. Then a so-called American costume and a pretended paHpoTt were sold to the poor dope at an extravagant price.

In one year 6,799 emigrants who owed BuUtary doty to Austria were dispatched these miscreants, and 'the whole number yaawd through their hands is estimated at thirteen thousand. In numerous eases it js discovered that they have swindled credulous creatures out of their farms io Gelicia, giving: in exchange splendid ee-. Utes in America bought through the alarm clock. The stories of imposture now Brought out would bo incredible if unhappily Americana had not seen only too muoh of this East European ignorance and stupidity in their own great cities. Tory probably a large proportion ef the Anarch-, iits la the Chicago organisation came from "this very, section and were decoyed into emigrating by these fellows now on trial.

During the time when John Boll is oJ swelling out his chest and returning loud thanks to the Creator who made kirn so much better than other people, it is his ill-lock to be engaged in discase-iager trying to suppress the malodorous tesods Is which spring np eternal inside his island household. There is always some-, thing peculiarly or attractive vhichsTcr you like about a British scan- ill It has become an axiom that when a bank cashier has been a particularly pious man, his flight makes a bigger hole in the sent than ordinary. By the same rule, when anything happens in England to shock the proprieties so dear to the English bosom, these proprieties get an astonishing amount ef sensation for their money. Ten days' ago it looked ae if the official pressure was going to succeed in hushing np the tremendous aristocratic scandal to which I referred last week. Everybody was talking about it and passing on distorted versions to his fallows.

But there was a general feeling that it would never get into the courts. Sow the prospect is different. Mr. Leboucbere has said frankly in this week's Trth: What if the matter is barked by the authorities, it will be brought up immediately when Parliament meets and ventilated to the very dregs in the House of Commons." This threat; ominously enough, follows paragraph alluding to the costly apartments being fitted np for Albert Victor in Bt James's Palace, the ex. yeneeef whioh the Commons will be seised to meek Xo connection between these two para graphs is suggested, but it is obvious to everybody that there has come to be with-a the past few days a general convio-: tion that this long-necked, narrow-headed young dullard was mixed up in the scandal, and out of this had sprung a half- vhimsioal.

half-serious notion, which one hears propounded now about clubland, that matters will be so arranged that he will never return from India. The moat popular idea is that he will be killed in a tiger hunt, but runaway horses a fractious elephant might serve as welL What this really mirrors is a pnblie awakening to the fact that this stupid, lines boy has become a man and has only two bighly-preoarious livee between him and the English throne and is an utter blackguard and ruffian. Heretofore people have not known much about him, save that he was a dull chap whose nickname was Prince Collars and The revelation now that he is some- thing besides a harmless simpleton has created a very painful feeling everywhere. Although he looks so strikingly like his it turns out that he gets only his face from the Danish race, and that morally ud mentally he combines the worst at- "Utttes of sou of George HL at whose mention history still holds her noee. is act toe early to predict that such a fcl-' VT" Allowed to ascend the British throne that Is as clear as anything Mweabe.

It is equally dear that the suppression of scandal which he, with some dozens et young and middle-aged samples of the atry of England, is involved has become impossible, and that further persisted ia wta do enormous damage, not only to the Ooveramsnt, bat to the aristocratic social structure cenriw rrT.m,iT Ut. tar comments have been made on aU aides the action of the authorities ia not only permitting sporting upper ten to have what amounted to i.

'It is only aturu that the nnhlta should ass iAte that with tht mtMM ailif Wal machinery to suppress proceedings gainst titled offenders. There is more indignAtion And ruffling of ue equanimity of the ygtui mind Just new than I kan hafore.

Terr AUl mora repression will be seeded to bring it to fever heat, but. as I have the whole scandal is going to come out. Mr. Labouchere's threat has been succeeded by a demand ia the PnU JfaJI OmttiU for an exposure of the means by which the Home Offioe prevented proeecu' tion. The Paris press for a week has been full of the moot exaggerated and seneeti on" el accounts of the thing, Me.

tin leading the way with an outspoken onslaught on London society under the suggestive caption of La Sodome Moderne." The effects of this terrible revelation, when sooner or later it Is forced into daylight, cannot but be prodigious upon the whole political and social edifice of contemporary England. From many points of view the necessity of a full exposure will seem moot lamentable, but there will be more than compensation if an effective blow is dealt to this wretched little class of titled young loafers and scoundrels who have brought the name of English gentleman down into the mud. It is stated on good authority that the Earl of Euston, the heir of the Duke of Graf ton, was arrested last night. It Is no surprise to find him mixed up with the scandal, because his whole life has been one long, overture to such disgrace. He is just over forty, and married a.

music hall singer when a youngster. The woman is now openly living as the mistress of one of his sporting companions. Lord Henry and Lord Arthur Somerset, the latter of whom has been cashiered from the Life Guards; Lord Beaumont, Lord Beaton, and Lord Dudley have fled and are now in hiding on the Continent There is special Interest in the last named, not on his own account, because he ie a most hopeless young fool and knave, but for the sake of his mother, the Countess of Uerby, who, next to the Princess of Wales. is probably the most generally-beloved and admirable lady in England. It was her vain effort a while ago to save her son from his ruinous courses which led to the police raid on the Turf Club.

The failure of Father Reillr and his com panion, Atkinson, who came over as dele gates from the American National League to secure an interview with Mr. ParnelL or even to learn his whereabouts, is a very In teresting illustration of the effect which Le Caron's evidence and Cronin's murder have had on the Irish leader's mind. Nature made him a very cautious man to begin with, and sad experience has of late multiplied his wariness until he appears and vanishes in politics now like a veritable ghost. Nobody here seems to have any idea what these gentlemen cams over for, and very probably Mr. Parnell is as much in the dark about their purpose as others are.

But whatever it may be, he does not want to know it and hence has disappeared. Apart from this curious little incident the political world reveals very few features of interest. Lots of speeches are beins made throuehont the eanntnr. nf winru and it is reported that the Parnell Commission is still listening to the oratory of Sir Henry James, but nobody pays the slightest attention to either the one or the other. rarty lutes very obviously divide the comment en Mrs.

Secant's action for libel against an East End parson who vainly opposed her recent election to the School Board by circulating a handbill charging her with teaching that chastity was a crime. The jury disagreed, and it is discovered now that foar-nfths of them were on Mrs. Besant's side; but that was no fault of the Judge, who displayed the moot vindictive bias against her in summing up but people are so accustomed to these exhibitions of medieval Tory wooden-headedness on the bench that no surprise is expressed. In a fortnight's time, bowerer. tbe political season will be opened by Mr.

Gladstone at Manchester where unexampled preparations are making for a meeting of the National Liberal Federation there. Gladstone. Haroourt.

The leaven of ferment introduced into London work-a-day life by the dock strike has continued to permeate tbe mass week after week, and threats of strikes have suoceeded in numerous trades in securing better hours and wagee for the toilers. Two weeks ego it looked as if fully bakerc would leave work on Nov. 16. the date they had fixed for a strike, unless the terms were conceded. So many master bakers gave in that to-day's strike is not very important numerically, and no doubt this will be finished by the masters' submission in a day or two.

Publlo sympathy is very generally with the men, who are terribly overworked and underpaid, and it ia still more so with tbe omnibus and horse-car drivers, who are preparing for a general strike. They have been ground down by competing companies until their misery is every-day talk. Many of them work sixteen continuous hours every day in the year for less than a dollar a day. Their strike, if It comes off. will be a muoh more picturesque and popular affair than even the dockers' demonstration was.

Muoh interest is taken here in the story that the Csar has at last fallen foul of PobedonesUeft, the Procurator General of the Holy Synod, who has been so energetically conducting religious persecutions ia Bussia that he baa earned the familiar name of the Black Czar. This sinister title would be moot conspicuously justified by his savage raid upon the Lutheran clergy in the Baltic provinces. The chief Lutheran minister in St Petersburg, an able German named Dr. Dal ton wrote a pamphlet on this subject and managed to have it brought to tbe Csars notice while he was staying at Copenhagen. The Czar read it talked It over with his Danish relatives, and, though he promised nothing at the time, tbe first thing he did when he returned to Bnssia was to write an autograph letter to the Procurator giving him a three months' holiday in which to prepare a full and convincing answer to the vampuiat.

They are free to speak ef the low prices and largo sinenses cf the past and the benefits whleh will result from eoneentrstlon. But they care not to tell how they will concentrate.

The nominal capital stock will be Of this will represent the value cf the real estate, buildings, machinery, and good will of the absorbed companies.

AT THE BRAZILIAN EMBASSY. MIKISTKR TALARTX'S INFORMATION IS MEAGRE AND CONFLICTING. Washixoto. Kov. 16.

Dr. Valante, the Brazilian Minister here. Is still without any official Information concerning the trouble In Brazil. He has, however, received a number of dispatches from London and New-York, and one or two from Rio de Janeiro. Their contents, the Minister said to-night, were substaatially the same aa the newapapers had printed, and from them he waa able to reach only one definite conclusion, whioh was that the situation la Brazil was very serious.

The telegrams were too conflicting to give one an accurate idea of what was going on. One dlspstch declared that the Brazilian Ministry had resigned, and when Dr. Valante read it he concluded that the Ministers had simply got out of tbe way when the trouble broke out, to make room for somebody else to step In and smooth matters ever. Then came word that the Ministers had been arrested and placed in close confinement Dr. Valante apparently regarded the latter news as the more authentic.

He waa first informed that the Minister of the Navy had been killed and afterward that he had been wouaded. and aa to other particulars the Minister's dispatches were contradictory. Thev all agreed, however, that no violence had been offered- to the Kmperor, or te any member of tbe Imperial family. Dr. Valante felt very sure tbat this waa true, and he was also confident that whatever might be the cut-come of the re olution, it would be reached without bloodshed.

It was quite possible, ho added, that the revolutionists had taken poe-scsslon of tbe telegraph offloee and established a censorship over ail dispatches, aad this bad to be taken into account in considering ths reports seat out from Rio de Janeiro. Minister Valante waa unable, be said, to ssy Just what had caused the outbreak. Of course there was discontent somewhere, and he waa Inclined to think tbe army was respoaaible for the movement. Some of his dispatches reported that two military officers and a civilian, who was a prominent Rcpublleaa, had been selected to restore order, and others tbat the same men had been placed ia cnargc of the Government. At any rate, two of the three men wao seemed to be at the head of affaire ware prominent in army elrciee.

It waa ridiculous. Dr. Valante contiaoed. to ascribe the uprising to the act of Prineeoe Isabella, while acting as Regent. In signing the decree for the Immediate emancipation of all Slaves la the empire.

That decree was a law eased by tbe Brsslllea Parliament, for which be Prlneeee was not at all responsible It wss dsmaaded by popular opinion, and was so popular that In two days after It had beca latro-dnced la the lewer house it passed that body uaaaimously. In two days more tt wont through the upper House ef Parliament, aad within five days from the time It was first offered it had received rhe signature of Princess Ian belle as Regent. Although by its terms It allowed the slaveholders no compensation for their slaves, it was not obtccted te by them. Here aad there a slave owner complained that he should be paid for bis property, bnt saeh Instances were rare, and the slaveholders as a class were act affected by tae law. One of Minister Valaate's dispatches stated tbat a provisional government had been formed with the three men already named at the head, aad taat ths people of the Empire were te be called upon to vote upon the sort cf government Brazil should have hereafter.

Whst would be tae result cf such aa election tae Minister was not prepared to say. The Emperor had once said that whenever tbe pevple of Brazil demanded a change of government he would act stand In ths way. Dr. Vales ra believed that Don Pedro meaat this, aad that he weald be the first to aay. I will It be felt tbat ay so doing he coo Id prevent bloodshed and best serve his country.

The Emperor had been as liberal almost aa any of his subtests, aad the people of Brazil had en-Joyed under him the tallest liberty of speech and action. Tbe Republicans bald meetings aad published aewspeper. aad evea had political clubs witaout hindrance from the Government. It was even known that taere were Reoabticaaa la tbe army sad tbey ware permitted to remain. There had beea ao lndica-tloaa, however, that aa uprising was contemplated, and the present revelation, Dr.

Valante added, was a total surprise. Mc. Salvador de Mendonica, Brazilian Co nan I General at New-York, whe is la this city, stopping at the legation et the empire, said that lr. Fonaeea, who ia reported to have keen made President of the newly-orgaulze Gov-ernmenc. Is a General ef the army.

He has net beea et all prominent la public affaire, nor has he been regarded as hostile to tbe Government, He was. however, known to he a republican In hla views, although it was sossethlng at a sarpnaw to hear that his cwnvle-tlone were so strong ia that direction aa to bnnc hlin to the front at a time when no one expected to hear ef a forcible ebeegc Mr. do Meadenlea regretted taat hla ability te apeak lastraetively ea the subject waa enfereeu by a lack ef talormatloa. all the aeera he aad re- Bass, a Mara.

At the btate Departsseat and among the South Aaserteeua, braulieas aa wail aa neighbors of etaer countries, taere was tae utmost ourieeity to learn eemethtag definite aoeut the provotlag causes ef tae revolution aud the eztent of it. Among the representatives of Brazil there la more surprise at the time of tbe revolatiea taaa at tne fact itself. While diplomatically reserved la czpresslag their opinions, it to generally admitted that the tendency te a Republic, urged en by the example ct all the other aations ia bouta America, has been preparing the people for aa auaudoument ef tae empire.

There has been no complaint cf repression ef aay sort; ae hostility to the Emperor; ae blUemees toward the aathcrttwe aauer him.

The mca named in the tew dispatches as the leaders in the revolution have ail been kaowa aa Kepun-ltcaas, but aone of them had incurred sea-plolon as revolutionists.

ME. rVIXS ON THE SITUAX10JT. WHAT HC SAW AND HEARD IN BRAZIL LAST SUMMER. Mr. William M.

Ivina, ex-City Chamberlain who was in Brazil during ths late Minlsteria i crisis aad who visited nearly all the coast oltiee during his stay, gives the following view cf the present situation: Ths active agitation of the present mcv s-ment undoubtedly dates its beginnings In the agitation for the aboliUoa of slavery, aad ia of long standing, bat did not assame a legislative political shape until a couple of years ago. When the law et the 13th ct May. 1898, waa passed, the work of aboUtioa had already beea largely done by Judlolal process. It is estimated that thirty years ago there were ao less than 3,000,000 slaves ia Brazil. The number of those emancipated by the law ef 18S8 was probably not over 1,500,000.

the rest having been emancipated virtually by the Judicial process in this way: Whea an owner claimed a fugitive slave he was compelled to prove that the man waa bora la slavery. Ia the abeenoe of this proof the man was declared to be free. This process was too slew. During recent years large numbers of prominent slave-hold era In the Southern provinces Joined the abolitionists. The result was that, daring tne Begeney of the Prioecss the wife of the Comte a tu, Lion juen aij reao Doing rnme Minister ths lew ef the 13th of May was pushed tarough tbe houses in the course of two or three daya Tbe statute was extremely short, and simply said taat slavery to hereby abolished la the empire of Brazil.

This waa directly la tae line of the Republican agitation. The ex-slave owners demanded compensation. They were unable to exact this from the Government, The slaves being their most valuable property aud the basis of their fortunes, they found themselves by virtue of the law reduced from the position or the dominant ciaas la tbe empire to a very subordinate one. They had little If anything more to lose. Their opposition to the Government and the empire became Intense, and tbey became almost at once leading agitators la favor of a republican Government.

Alfredo, aa the leader of tae Conservatlvea, foond himself In a peeoilar position as aa incident of toe effects of this legislation. He had pleased bat not satisfied the Liberals and had antagonized the slave-osntng class. He however, was an expert financier, aad anooeed-cd in placing a new loan of 11.000,000 with the Rothaehllda at a good figure, had turned the current of exohange to such aa extent that milrels were at a premium In sterling exchange, having run up to above 29L This gave him atrong support with the great body of merchants and bankers. By Msy of the preseot rear, however, the conditions et government had become more diffioult, and toward the end of May It became apparent that tae Conservative Ministry would aave te resign. Den Alfredo bed handed In nis resignation late in May or early la Jane, I forget which.

I was in Rle at tae time, aad the popular agitation was very great. The public streets seemed to be turned into a political pandemonium. From early la the morning until late at night the Ouvlda, Whleh Is the Broadway of tbe city, waa a great political exchange, wita crowds of people on every street eorser and aeeees to the bulletin boards almost impossible. The Emperor Invited six or sevea different moderate leaders in succession to orgeaize a Ministry on a coalition basis. Several of these gentiemeu refused at once.

Others mads attempts to ergaalse a Ministry, but ultimately failed. Every effort was made by the Conservatives to prevent the organization of adictinetir Liberal Ministry If possible. At last, however. aotning else aeing practicable, the mperer asked the Lioerals to organize a Liberal Minta- wel, wblca waa done, xast is the Ministry ich Is now reported to have Jnst resigned. Tne population of Brazil is variously eetl- msted at from 1L.0O0.O0O to lA.000.OOa There are ao absolutely aeourste political ataiistlea la Brazil.

It is generally stated, however, that ct this large copulation the franchise to in tne hands of over 200.000. This relatively small electorate has always heretofore controlled all the political ouioes la one way or another. The Liberal Ministry on comlag la announced Its Srogramme, which was confined to five er six istlnet propositions. One two most Important, however, were (1) aa extension ef the franchise aad (2) autonomous provincial government. -It waa proposed to extend the franchise la such a way aa to give a very much larger voice to the people throughout the empire, embracing, however, both property and educational qnaiiAeaUona.

I found nobody in Rio wbc was in favor ef absolute aad unqualified manhood suffrage, that being considered eet of the question In view cf the very large illiterate negro and Indian population, the proportion being estimated at 80 per cent, ef illiteracy. Brazil. I suppose, more thaa aay etaer couatry la the world, is absolutely free from anything like color lines. Tbe Minis trie ot the past hsve had amoag them mea of all aAedee of color, and in the selection ot the holders ef tae highest efflcee laflasnee and ability have heretofore always controlled apart from color distinction. Thus.

I remember that tae Preel-dent of tae province ot Para, appointed by the Emperor, was a pare Portuguese areola, tae chief flaaaeial officer ef the province being a negro, bat a maa thoroughly educated and qualified te held hla own la any company. The property qoalltleatioa proposed wee a small one. and, aa for the educational qualification, it waa suggested that the franchise be given to all persons exercising certain professions, tradea, aad callings whleh involved the aeeeso ty for intellectual capacity and lodgment. The second principal proposition, that providing for autonomous government, may be explained ta this way: The empire ot Brazil to divided Into a number of provinces, some of whleh are aa large as the States ta ear country. These provisoes ere Imperial divisions aad net units cf a larger aggregate They are governed by a certain Parliamentary form, saeh prevtnee having two noose, the anemberehip ef which to eleetivc Tae Prealdeate of tbe provinces are appointed br tbe hmneror through the Prime Mluister.

The result waa that Para weald find is Preeldeaey ailed by a mea from Bahia er Pernambaoe, taat the President ot Pcraambace would be a maa mca Rie, aad that the province et Mlneas Geraec weald be aader the control of a maa from Maraabaaa. aad so ea. "Tae powers ef the President being very large, and the Presides aot aeccesarlly being la aay sense in Sues a with tae people ef the oomm salty ever whleh he presided, the subject became eae ef aaivereal eomplalat.

How true tela may be a ooe could tell, but It was a azatter ot rumor." THE CAUSE OP DISCONTENT. IT IS THC CVPOFCLARTTT OF DOM PEDRO'S DAUGHTER AND HSR HUSBAND. Don Alease Rovnja. eae ct the Diaralarlas ef the Privy Council ot Dom Pedro, was at tbe Hotel Brunt wick yesterday, Uti Rio Janeiro the last of October oa official business.

He said te a Tntna reporter: "There seems ta be aa erreaeoue impreesloa la this country that he internal troubles tn Brazil are the outcome of the liberation of the slaves. Nothing could, be further from the truth. The Emperor's aetloa in the emancipation et the slaves was aot aloae a popular measure, bat one which caused praise to be showered npoa tae Emperor aot only from within the empire, but also treat foreign countries It must be remembered that Brazillsns are almost eon Usually traveling, fa fact, the wealthy Brazilian may be asid to be never ao thoroughly content as when be is on his wsv from or to his native lead. People ot thto national cbaractertotiO are greatly laflo-eneed by taeir Immediate envlroemeeat aad thay are very susceptible to the op la lens ot for' elgaere. Thus, became the Emperor to ae highly respected ouUlae of his domain ho to doabiy beloved within.

"The actual reason of this a prising Is the la-flaenee exerted by tbe daus-hterof the Km peror and bar km. baud, Comte d'Eu. There hac beea for a considerable time a reunions aad aa eatt-clerical party at Court aad among the pee pi a. The Church seems to be patting forward all net energies to secure eoatrol ef Brazil, aed the elder families aad the crown Prineeee are elding tbe Dries ta la every way In their power. The Liberala.

however, who arc la adeelded majority and who are supported ia a very marked degree by the Emperor, are determlaed that the priests shall be deprived ct all temporal power and that their duties be confined te those whleh are absolutely eeaentlal te their ealliag. During the present regency the pries ta have become daily more obnoxioas to tae Liberal and have eo usurped ths control ef certain exalted offices that the Lioerals aave at last openly rebelled. Tbe Crown Prlaoess to openly denounced on all bands because ef her coper-en determination to make the Empire ef Brazil a mere tributary to the Pope's rev a sea. She has a pressed bsreelt la this regard la many ways aad at many times. She la oppeecd by the Liberals, wbo deeUre iUm: aha will never eae-eeed berfatber as Empress.

It Is aot alone against the Crown Princess tbat this armed protest Is being mad a It is agalnat her husband, a Bearboa Priace. eae who seems to unite In hla personality many ox-eeediagly unpopular attributes. He to a apend-thrirt and Is of exceedingly offensive aad wlelous hsblte. and Is at all times willing to ass his Influence ae consort to the poaetuly foterc Empreea in order to secure pecuniary advantage. There have beea long murmurs of dlaroa-tent against the Comte d'Eu't luaueaee over his wife la a political way.

and It is likely that, with tbe foundation of republic, be will pe banished. Any change to republican form of government would be luteneety popular la Brazil, aad npoa the Emperor's death saeh a ebeegc would be Inevitable.
