WASHiNOTOy, "ov. 8. "The dispatches
from Rio Janeiro via London regarding
another revolution in Brazil should be well
shaken and properly seasoned betore being
swallowed by our people," remarked Major
J. O. Kerbev, recently the United Siatcs
Consul at the mouth of the Amazon; and
about whom.it will be recalled, the Kio
Government officially protested to the Pres
ident on account of the publication in Tun
Pisr.vrcH of a series of letters, some of
which contained critical comment on the
new Republic which foreshadowed this later
South American evolution.
"The history of the new Republic of Bra
zil may be told in one sentence," continued
the Major. '"In the last days of the Em
pire under the reign of l)am Pedro II., the
Brazilian reis, which is the currency of the
realm, was equivalent to 51 cents gold, its
par; after 18 months of Republican 'dicta
torship the same milreis is worth about 33
cents.
'These are the undisputed facts and fig
ure, which speak volumes. Columns have
been printed and voluminous official reports
circulated, partly by the Bureau of Amer
ican Republics, which are calculated to ac
count ior or explain to outsiders this steady
decline in the new Republic's finances.
All Interested in Exchange.
"As the United States Consul at Para,
during the past year, and as an old news
paper fiend, with only the bald reputation
of being a keen observer, I was kept in a
continual sweat, in that perspiring latitude,
by attempting to keep the Government
posted on the probable causes for this fall
inj barometer, which teems to portend a
financial cvclone as well as to indicate
lurther political evolutions.
"The first clance at a morning Portuguese
paper i. to the commercial column, which
prints the closing quotation of the previous
iav: when two friends meet in the street
they discuss in the hot sun, under their um
brellas, the all important question of 'ex
eliarge. "We get 'exchange' in pounds,
shillings and pence for breakfast and din
ner, and after dark the flubs gamble on the
urobable rate of exchange of the following
da'-.
"The remarkable feature to a stranser is
that all this 'exchange is posted thrbugh
the English banks, whieh receive their in
structions oier telegraph wiles owned and
controlled by English capital in Loudon,
end everybody seems to accept, without
question, the quotations that come up from
headquarters in this manner.
A Censorship of Telegrams.
"Precisely the same conditions exist in
regard to the transmission of any political
intelligence over the telegraphs ow ned and
controlled by English officials and those
under the control of the Brazilian Govern
ment all subjected to official censorship,no
cipher dispatches being transmitted. In a
tense England has a mortracc on Brazil.the
conditions being similar to those of Chile.
"Brazilian politics are even more incom
prehensible than are the finances of the
Iw Republic. "When a physician visits a
patient his first move is a quiet reach for
the pulse; with watch in hand, he intently
counts the beats, paying but little attention
to the rambling talk" or, perhaps, the be
seeching and imploring glance of the
silk person. So it is with the sick nations,
which require the sen ices of a doctor, the
phrsician is the capitalist who examines the
pulse, which is likened to the exchange, or
gold rate, and makes his recommendation
or writes his prescriptions according to the
healthtulness of the body politic as indi
cated by this exchange pulsation.
"An American visitor who may under
take to gain information from an intelligent
Brazilian may be apt to conclude that the
tflairs of State are still very much mixed,
and the farther he pursues his investigation
the more fully convinced he will become
that the masses of the people have no proper
conception of the importance to each citizen
of ttie change from an empire to a republi
can form of government. The usual com
ment is that the native population are
habitually indifferent' to all such matters.
Mt personal observation led me to the
opinion that it is not so much a question of
inainerence as ot arrant stupidity.
Caasoil hy the Climate.
"Unquestionably to the terrible climate
under the equator must be chargeable much
of this iuhercnt weakness of the population
that are born and raised under its depress
ing influence. The leading spirits are
cither aliens or natives who have been edu
cated abroad. The Brazilian of tiie
Amazon "Valley of mature years acts in im
portant business or political matters in a
manner that leads the Anglo-Saxon to think
that the brain has not de eloped with the
growth of the body they frequently con
duct crave aflairs after the manner of boys.
Haiiig been so long accustomed to the
paternal form of government, as yet the
masses are practically incapable of self-government.
"The natural consequence is that the
'Republic is in the hands of a few a very
few of the leading minds, who manage anil
control almost everything pertaining
thereto. "Whct!r these leaders are the un
scrupulous and scheming men, as charged
by their enemies, remains to be developed.
Really there are no politics in Brazil to
speak of. There are no organized parties as
with us, simply because there are no issues
at stake, except, perhaps, that of the cleri
cal party, which is quite insignificant in
numbers and influence.
"It is a remarkable truth, however, that
although a Catholic country, but few of the
voters (who admit their "Catholicism) are
friendly to the church party. That part of
the Republican Constitution which sepa
rates the Church and "State is the most
popular with the people. It would be safe
to say that the members cf the partr at
present in power are altogether Catholics,
and those of the opposition are of the same
creed. Therefore, there being no question
of tariff, civil service reform, etc., it
resolves itself to the single issue of "Ins"
and "Outs." The party crv of the "Outs"
is that the "Ins" are robbers. ' It is the
same old South American story that the
liarty in power make the most ot their op
portunity to collect the enormous import
and export revenues, a greater percentage
of which it is charged is being regularly
invested in European securities, with a
view to such future contingencies as these
dispatches indicate.
A Xtevolnticm by the Arm-.
"It is well known that the 'revolution'
which overthrew Dom Pedro IL did not
come from or through the people, but was
conceived and executed by the army, the
ponulace fullv rivins its adherence to the
new order of things. This placed General
Btodora Fonseca, of the Brazilian Army, at
the head of the new Government as Mili
tary Dictator tor a probatiouary period of
one year, during which time elections were
ordered and all the preliminary formulas
promulgated, Constitutions adopted and
other necessary steps taken to put the new
Republic on a solid basis.
"General Fonseca was elected President,
not by the people, but by the newly organ
ired Congress at Para. I learned while in
London recently that the Rothschilds de
clined a proposed Brazilian loan, because
General lonseca obstinately persisted in re
maining at the head of the Government, de
clining to give the opposition any opportu
niiy whatever. The Governors of the dif
ferent States were likewise chosen by the
various State Legislatures, which were
elected by the people. It will be seen,
therefore, that their Constitution is not
modeled after our own, as has been gener
ally represented; though it is claimed that
subsequent-elections for the executive offi
cials will be by the vote of the people.
"I do not apprehend any serious revolt in
Brazil. They are not a fighting people, but
most wonderful talkers, andnow that they
have an opportunity in their Congress halls
for ventilating their peculiar ideas of Re
publicanism, it will end in a war of words,
and after this relief through the Congress
ional safety valve, they will all again
quietly accept the situation and subside.
But it will take a book to tell all I think
that I know about Brazil, and I expect to
have a book on that subject in print at no
distant day."
It will be remembered that Major Kerbey
is an old Pittsburger.who owed his appoint
ment as Consul at Para to his having been a
schoolmate of Hon. John Dalzell. He
would prohablv have been yet in that
equatorial city had he not seen so much to
cricise and make sport of, and found it im
possible to refrain from making the most of
the opportunity. E. W. L.

CALIFORNIA,
The Country of Delightful Winters.
California is the most attractive and de

of the world, and its many beautiful resorts
will be crowded with the best families of
the East during the entire winter. It offers
to the investor the best open opportunity
for safe and large returns from its fruit
lands. It offers the kindest climate in the
world to the feeble and debilitated; and it is
reached in the most comfortable manner

niSSAD STORTREuATED TO A REPORTER
How a stranger might have been acci
dently implicated in a crime was illus
trated in a story told by Oliver S. Backus,
a young man interested in the Little Nug
get mines near Denver, Col., last night. He
stopped over last Sunday in Pittsburg on
his way to 2"ew York, and being of a wild
"Western spirit concluded to go out after
d3rk and enjoy himself as best he could.
Being accustomed to the Sunday night
openness of free and easy resorts so com
mon in Denver, he started out expecting to
enjoy himself listening to an alleged sacred
concert, and putting away copious quanti
ties of liquid refreshments. In this he was
disappointed, however, for he soon discov
ered that the rigid laws on Sunday closing
handicapped him considerably and it was
even betting he would not get a drink at all.
In his wauderings he met a gentleman
whom he asked if he could direct him to
some locality or place where a drink of the
Teutonic beverage could be obtained. "Cer
tainly," said the affable fellow. "I am
just going for an satisfying draught my
self." Afraid He Was Being Bunkoed.
The newly-made friend was well dressed
and seemingly well acquainted with the
city. He was a good tilker. and his con
versation was on subjects of general inter
est, such as manufactures and the large re
sources which Pittsburg had for improving
itself. He deplored the fact that its Sun
days were so uninviting to the stranger
within its gates and bitterly denounced the
Law and Order Society. Mr. Backus was
not an unsophisticated "Westerner, and took
pains to watch his new acquaintance for
fear he would give him a wrong
"steer," in the parlance of the bunko man.
The Pittsburger had plenty of money and
spent it freely when a "speak-easy" was
reached. Mr. Backus didn't know the loca
tion, but said it was near the Monongahcla
river. His description of it agrees with a
well-known resort in the First ward which
is frequented very liberally by a good class
of people on Sunday night The two sat
and sipped beer until about 12 o'clock, when
the "Westerner proposed, in return for the
Pittsbnrger's kindness, that they go and get
a bite of lunch. The invitation was readily
accepted by the new, accommodating
friend.
They went to an all-night house on "Wood
street, where they satisfied their appetites.
After finishing, Mr. Backus said he guessed
he would go to his hotel the Schlosser.
The two walked slowly down Fifth avenue,
when the stranger, who had before made
himself so agreeable, stopped several times
before big business houses and looked care
fully at the windows, doors, etc. He told
Mr. Backus how easy it would be
to enter any of the houses which
ran through from Fifth avenue to
Virgin alley. The "Westerner didn't pay
much attention to his companion's observa
tion, but the latter preesed the subject, and
quietly sounded Mr. Bakns as to his stam
ina and nerve; if he would assist him in a
"job ana share in the plunder and respon
sibility. This question rather startled the young
man from Denver, who now realized lie was
in company with a desperate crook. He
had good "Western courage, and was not
afraid of any personal injury, but the fact
of his being seen with the possible criminal
disturbed him quite a little. He laughed
the man's proposition off as a joke, but in
wardly felt is as a serious matter. He
hastily bid his new companion good night,
after thanking for his attention and kind
ness dnring the evening, and went into the
hotel office, requesting of Clerk Statler his
room key.
Bonnd to Be Snre of an Alibi.
He started to go up stairs, but hesitated.
He was agitated about his night's experi
ence, and more particularly the strange end
ing of the night's adventure.
Visions of burglaries, safes blown open,
detectives, prison cells and other disagree
able things flitted through his mind. He
thought to himself "if that two-faced
devil goes and commits some "job" to-night
and is arrested, it is a moral certainty that
I will be arrested as an accomplice, having
been seen with him all evening, and by men
who are of a sporting character. There
would be nf redeeming evidence for me."
It was now nearly 1 o'clock in the morning.
The city was aft quiet except from the
rattling noise of the heavy street sweepers.
He starts out determined to get proof to
clear himself if any store was robbed that
night, and his new friend arrested for the
crime. He went back to the restaurant
where a. number of newspaper men were
gathered eating theirafter-labor lunch. He
made himself very conspicious, and
talked with the proprietor until broad day
light "It was a long night's talk," said
Mr. Backus, "but I was bound to prove an
alibi by that restiuront keeper if any Ques
tion ever came up regarding me in connec
tion with that sleek gentleman's record for
that one night I have been keening the
experience to myself, not intending to
divulge it, but I tell it to you just to show
how a man may be thrown against circum
stances in the daily walks of life which
might land him behind the bars. The
chances are many innocent people are con
victed on less circumstantial evidence than
that I have just related." Mr. Backus went
to New York last night on the fast line.
It is said there are a few crooks in town,
and it has only been a night or so ago when
a burglar alarm was sent in to the police
from a very prominent wholesale jewelry
house on Fifth avenue.

be dislodged by Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.

It Is Never Too
To recognize the force of a forcible
statement. A plainly-told truth will
travel faster and travel further than
the most glittering and ornamental
announcement ever made. Here's
the plain truth we have lots of
pretty new Shoes and Slippers. You
will find some styles you don't like,
but there are some here you can't get
along without.

And you'll not find a better article for the money than we shall
this week offer for TEN DOLLARS in Men's Suits.
Pfice has been compared to a lever and is said to move the
world, and the price we have made on these suits is bound to
move a world of trade in our Men's Suit Department this week.
But price standing alone means nothing; we want you to
judge by facts, not by fancies;
the quality and real value of the
offer in the suits we advertise.
STYLE AND ELEGANCE!
Ypu may make sure of finding in every garment we offer, other
wise it would find no place among our royal stock. The variety
of materials in which we can fit you is very large, and the make
and trim all you would expect to find in suits of a much higher
price.
You'll find among them nobby Sacks and stylish Cutaways,
and they will recommend themselves to you at sight. Every
suit sold at this price will add another link of appreciation to
our immense and mighty chain of patronage.
