MONARCHY IN FAVOR. Many States of Brazil Said to Want It. AIM OF THE INSURGENTS. Zanardelli's New Cabinet Is Still Incomplete. London Hu a Dynamite Scare That Proves Groundless Cause of -Tyndall's Death.

the Associated Tbe Time tomorrow will publish the following interesting letter, dated Not. 14, from its special eorre-spondeat at Bio de, Janeiro. In reviewing the causes leading' up to the revolt, the Timet correspondent says that with the fall of Dam Pedro, the aristocracy withdrew all connection with the government, and that the wealthy men who were in office, were then replaced by adventurers i whose sole object has been personal gain. Continuing, the Timet correspondent says: President Peixoto opened his administration well by canceling the decree permitting tee Bank of the Republic to continue tbe emission of notes, which had been done in tbe interest of a ring of speculators. -But the hopes of reform were soon disappointed when be began removing the Governors of States In an underhand manner.

Thence onward he took the bit in his mouth and made a aeries of blunders and set aside the spirit and letter of the constitution in every way. Rupture with Mellat The Times correspondent then proceeds to show President Peixoto's alleged breach of faith regarding Rio Grande do Sul by persecuting those had been engaged in the revolt, which action led to the President's rupture with Admiral de Mello, who resigned the office of minister of marine in consequence. Much sympathy, the correspondent adds, was" shown in Rio de Janeiro for the people of Rio Grande do Sal who had been engaged in the revolt. and popular subscriptions were opened between May and August, 1893. for the relief of the insurgent sick.

These subscrip-' tions were crowned with success, and it is said the constantly swelling fund was very railing to President Peixoto and led to the imprisonment of its promoter. Dr. Govern. Coming rapidly to the history of the present time, the Timet correspondent states that Nov. 7 the insnrgent leaders held a conference on board the warship Aquida-ban and discussed the question of re establishing a monarchy in Brazil.

It was then shown that the States of Pernam-buco, Bahia, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande, the majority of the population of alinas, Geraes, Sao Paulo, and an important section of the city of Rio de Janeiro favored a return of the monarchy. It was thereupon decided that tbe efforts of the insurgents should be directed to that end. Monarchy an Afterthought. The fact that General Pego, a well-known miiiii uuuer rnrsiuirQi reixuMj, bum mat toiouej Mendez, a violent opponent of republicanism, commands the "National Guard is positive proof that there was no intention when the revolutionary movement first broke out of any attempt to re-establish the monarchy. It was an afterthought engendered by the wishes of tbe people in various parts of Brazil, and it is yet to be seen whether the insurgents will make it the aim of their present struggle.

A Brazilian in high office has just remarked to the Timet correspondent that he believed tbe end of the war would see the finish of the praetorian system of government in Brazil, no matter which side won.

Londos, Dee. 5. The attempted arrest of a nan named Snyder at Hampstead yester-dav has resulted in developments that for a time gave London a dynamite scare. The feeling of alarm was intensified by the memory of the anarchistic demonstration last Sunday in Trafalgar square and the threats made by the anarchist there Whose ravings were chopped off by the strong hand of the police. It appeared today that the authorities had accidentally discovered a plot to cause a dynamite outrage that would perhaps have rivaled the Barcelona horror.

Snyder's apartments were at No. 24 Par liament nu, jb fcue approach of the officers'. Snyder decamped. The officers then began to remove the goods in the apartment and found several bottles of nitroglycerin. Becoming suspicious" they handed the bottles, as well as all of Snyder's belongings, to the 'police, who had them removed to a warehouse at the address in Chancery lane where the infernal machine was eventually found.

At the Chancery lane warehouse the police made a further and complete examination of Snyder's belongings, and this drew attention to a metal-bound traveling trunk, which, upon being opened, was found to contain wooden boxes. Inside this box was found a smaller one, containing a metal case a foot long, six inches wide and eight inches high. To this metal case were attached three fuses. Tbe police took the metal ease and its attachments to the Bow Street Police Station, where they were placed in a tub of water, When the case was finally opened, it was found to contain twenty-four pounds of The Evening Standard caused an Increase of the excitement following the discovery of the infernal machine in Chatcerv ln.n by reporting that the police had found a number of bombs in a swell cafe in the West End of London. The following explanation of the scare was given tonight: The man Snyder, in whose apartments in Hampstead the explosive was found, was the manarinc director of the Snyder Dynamite Projectile Company, wltu an office in Chance rr lane.

He was in arrears for rent for his lodgings in Hampstead and his landlord levied an execution on him. Among the articles seized were a trunk of explosives, many photographs of gun experiments, and a prospectus of the company, including an article from the London Timet printed five years ago which describes Snyder's invention as likely to render the conditions of warfare appalling. It is supposed that tbe dynamite found in Snyder's effects was used by him as a business sample. Berlin, Dec. 5.

Believed That the Vote of Yesterday Shows Mo Majority for the Government. Paris, Dec. 5. '-It is generally admitted in official circles that the Casimir-Perier Cabinet is doomed to a short life, tbe vote of yesterday on Grousset's amnesty motion showing no majority. On the amnesty question the Republican newspapers hall tbe ministerial declaration as being thoroughly consonant with the aspirations of the country.

On the other hand the Socialist and Radical newspapers hold that, though the declaration is in the same tone and more conciliatory than that of M. Du-puy, the opposition must strongly censure the aggressive attitude of M. Raynal, who said yesterday, with reference more particularly to the Boulanger conspiracy, that the government did not believe tbe hour had come to pass a sponge over the crime of treason to the fatherland. M. Dupuy was elected President of the Chamber of Deputies by a vote of 251 to 213, defeating M.

Brisson. This showing of a majority of only forty is not a very encouraging one for the new Cabinet. READY FOR AN ATTACK. Forty Thousand French Troops Stationed Near the Italian Frontier. Rons, Dee.

FLOWER. Canal Men Say He Deals Nig- gardly with Appropriations. HIS DEFENSE IS SCORNED. Delegate Clarke Moves That It Go Under the Table. Committee Appointed to Look After Ctfnal Interests with the islature.

New York, Dec 6. Canal men of this State met in the rooms of tbe New York Board of Trade and Transportation today to consider the policy of the State toward canals and what could be done to further the interests of the latter. James H. Seymour opened the conference by outlining the history of canals in, tbe State. Harry B.

Hard, of Buffalo, was elected chairman. A letter from Governor Flower, la which he said he thought he' had been able to save the State considerable money by not signing appropriations he considered unnecessary, was read and discussed. It was evident that many of the delegates doubted the good faith of the Governor toward their interests. Messrs. Burleigh and Clarke took the Governor to task for being niggardly in bis canal appropriations, and the last named moved that the communication be put 'under the table." Mr Burleigh compared Governor Flower's attitude to that of previous Governors and denounced him.

The use of electricity as a motive power on canals was also discussed. The consensus of opinion was that radical changes would have to be made before it could be made a valuable acquisition.

Resolutions were passed commending the "Seymour plan" of canal as against the "Schenck plan" for the reason that the last would require a much larger appropriation than that proposed by ex-Surveyor Seymour. Tbe conference then adjourned, subject to the call of the chair.

I am in favor of carrying the principles of the Knights of Labor to tbe ballot-box. Knights will vote for candidates who support our principles. If 'there are no candidates who support our principles we should nominate candidates who will advocate them." HE HAD MARRIED THOUSANDS. Rev. Mr.

White, of Brooklyn, Dies Suddenly of an ApopMetse Stroke. New York, Dec 6. Special Telegram. Eev. J.

J. White, better known as the marrying minister, died this morning at his home In Brooklyn of a paralytic stroke. Dominie White was born in -Ohio seventy-six years ago. He was for many years an itinerant preacher in West. He came to New York in 1871 and two years later located in Brooklyn in charge of the church corner of Bedford avenue and South Third street.

It was not until after he had settled in the eastern district that Eev. Mr. White became known aa the marrying minister. The little frame cottage in which he lived became a regular Gretna Green, for all tbe young couples who bad paternal opposition to face went to Mr. White, and he never was known to refuse to perform a ceremony.

In conversation one time the minister said: "I really cannot tell why so many persons come to me to be married. Of course if they were all from Brooklyn I might be able to offer some sort of an explanation, for I have been living here so long now that nearly all the young men and women know me, but a great many people come from New York city, from New Jersey, from Connecticut 'and from up the Hudson to have me marry them. Perhaps those whom I have already married think that one good turn deserves another, and so tell their friends who are contemplating matrimony of me." Even the minister himself never knew the exact number of couples he had started on the matrimonial road, but he said only a few weeks ago that he thought tbe number was over 7,000, "and of these 14,000 people," he added, "many have come back to thank me but none have ever returned to reproach me."

MAYOR GILROT IS DISTURBED. He Cannot Think of Hill aa an Anti-Snapper Minns a Machine. New York, Dec' 6. -Special Telegram. A weird dispatch from Albany toady contained a sentence to the effect that if the proper advances were made Senator Hill might join the element" of the Democratic party.

In plain words the greatest of all the snappers would become an anti-snapper. Strange things are said and guessed in politics in these days of transition, and Mayor Gilroy was asked about the possibility of Hill departing from his old ways. Naturally, Mayor Gilroy was inclined to jocularity, and only said: "Well, I have not talked with Senator Hill for six months. I have not seen Senator Murphy since the election, and have only talked with Mr. Croker on three or four occasions since that event, and then politics was not tbe burden of the eon venation.

As for Senator Hill becoming an anti-snapper, all I should think of would be the difficulty of disassociating the Senator and a machine of some kind." VOCNO REAM CAUGHT TH EAST. Chicago's One Pampered Pet Bona Big Bills la Providence. New York, Dec 6. Special Telegram. Howard W.

AT CENTRAL MUSIC HALL. Large and Enthusiastic Audience ApplaudssThem. Each Pleases with Extracts from Orig- Inal Works of Literary Merit An atmosphere of Hoosierdom settled about Central Music Hall last night, for Jamea Whitcomb Biley was there. He touched the heart with pathos, or at will bade his hearers laugh with him. He rung the ehanres on sentiment from grave to gay, from young to old.

through restful green fields into the tiresome city, and at every turn, with every gesture, by each intonation, proved himself tbe winsome singer of the people. Enthusiastic as was tbe reception given Mr. Biley, the other members of the literary quartet were no less appreciated. There was a newness and a freshness in the entertainment imparted by the advent of rising stars in the firmament of literature. Douglass Sherley, of Kentucky, made his bow to Chicago audiences, Elwyn Barron appeared for the first time at an authors' reading that embraced other than local celebrities, and Opie Bead gave to bis appreciative hearers some rare gems, that smacked of the cotton patch and log cabin, and carried one away to the dusty roads and grapevine fences of Arkansas.

Tha audience which greeted the quartet of celebrities was literary to the core. It represented the people of Chicago who delve in books and revel in the brilliancy of genius. With such a programme aa was given it was no wonder that the house was filled from orchestra to topmost gallery. Friends Who Applnnded. Among the audience was scattered a goodly representation of tbe press and Forty Clubr who came to see their fellows extolled.

Mr. Sherley Opens. Mr. Douglass Sherley introduced himself and the programme ih a few very happy remarks. He said that since he had been with Mr.

Biley be was useful solely in his capacity for lulling people into sleep and quietude, so that Mr. Biley could awaken tbem. He then read ''Perhaps; An Unwritten Story." It was a delightful bit of a society short story, in which love and flowers, blue rings of fragrant Havana cigar smoke blown nonchalantly from the. conventional hero's lips, and a young lady of decidedly unconventional ideas and habits of love-making were closely blended. Mr.

Sherley told his story -welL The hero- was of course Kentuckian, when be was made to aay after the young lady had boxed his jaws, 'I am a mn Inn tlvMfnM I I. for yon are a woman, but I tell you what can do. I can go into that other room and clean out your whole family of stalwart orotners," one saw tne local coloring of the cnnmcier immeaiateiy. Then came Mr. Biley.

He walked down the stage like a man knee deep in June His first gesture said MI am from Posev County." As for tbe rest his poems seemed to tit him. and he tbem, like the sculptor's clav its plaster mold. A smile from him and all lie house rippled with tremor in his voice anjt his hearers wept. He was tbe same inim'table Biley, thrilling his auditors with pathetic shades, cajoling them with clean-cut pictures, or gladdening them with spontaneous wit. His first recitation was from his new book, "Here at Home," entitled "At the Tbe Legend of Bluish.

Following Mr. Biley, Mr. Elwyn A. Bar ron, oi a he limn uceax. rendered his epic, "The Legend of Tnlulah." Mr.

Barron's entrance met with hearty applause. The poem, which was printed orginaily in this paper, dwelt upon an Indian legend, and tells how a crystal lake lying among tbe sighing pines of Lookout Mountain was formed. Tululah, so the story goes, was the pride of her tribe. What the tribe or who the people Matters not. for lone deserted Of the red man is the region.

And the noble race that after Came to claim the wikta unbroken Know but some poor remnant scattered Eveaof the passing hunters Who remained the last of nomads To possess that scene of beauty. -Now the daughter ot their chieftain, Bound and luscious like the rock grape, Rare in rich proportion fashioned. With a skin that, like the berry On the ledges, mixed magenta With the softening glow of cold earth. And a laugh that made the birds mute When they heard iu sweetest music Indian Warriors. This maiden was beloved bv two hntM.

Munjawah, tbe fierce, and Nabuk, who was a milder fashion of man. Munjawah was Jealous and Nabuk sung himself into the soul of Tululah. The revengeful Munja- wno, unoing nimseu aeieatea. aims a oiow at Nabuk which Slavs the maiden. The two warriors found themselves in a position aptly expressed by Mr.

Neither sooght to slay the other As they labored through tbe darkness," For a common faith possessed them That the first to die for other Would In spirit presence ever Hold the soul ot red Tululah. So tbe chiefs lived on until in old age they met at tbe crest of the mountain. Long dead rage possessed tbem and to gether tney plunged over tbe mountain. Where thev fell is now Lake Tnlulah. The poem, which is highly descriptive.

CUUi It Is calm as happy lives are It is pure as is religion It Is deep as love and passion It is round like hope unending. So I'm told It is a legend That the Spirit Great united Souls of Nabuk and Munjawah With their early love Tululah, And that in the waters si ways Shine or darkle these three natures When the placid Lake Tululah Lifts its face to kiss the sunlight. Mr. Barron's recitation met with a hearty indorsation. He was followed by Mr.

Biley in "The War Story." bv reauest As an encore ne gave "That Leedle Boy of Mine." Opto Read's Story. Opie Bead opened the second half of the programme with "An Arkansas Hanging," which won the audience for him immediately. He responded with "He Wouldn't Pay His tare." as an encore, which was a tale in negro dialect. Douglass Sherley then read an unpublished story, "Nsssa," a dramatic Bussian sketch. Following Mm, Mr.

Biley concluded the evening's entertainment with selections from "Poetry of tbe Commonplace." He first rendered "Up to Old Aunt Mary and then as an encore the pathetic "The Happy Lit tie Crip pie." The audience had hardly dried its -eyes when Mr. Barron came forward and announced that Mr. Biley would be unable to appear tomorrow night. He had Just been handed a telegram announcing the fatal illness of his father, and was forced to hasten home at Mr. Riley's place in the quartet will be 3 THE POWER OF THE GRIP Broken by Hood's Pains Driven to the Pour Winds Oood Health Renewed.
