Admiral Gama Carries Weight
Into the Revolutionist Ranks.
THE MOHAROHIBTS PREDOMINATE
Many People Have Arrived at the Concla-
•lon That It Is Time to Recognize the
IJunifeiU as Belligerents — A Crisis
Seems to Be at Hand and Business Is
Suspended Awaiting Results.
London, Dec. 20.—Tho Times pub
lishes this despatch from Rio do Janeiro,
dated Dec. 0, via Montevideo, Dec. 15:
"The manifesto of Admiral da Gama,
in command at Rio do Janeiro during
the absence of Admiral Ue Mello, has
produced excitement and greatly in
creases the popularity of the revolution.
“A messenger who has returned from
Sao Paulo and Santos says the monar
chist element predominates everywhere.
Tho people nrc prepared to follow Ad
miral do G.una's lead.
“I-Yrdando Lobe. minister of justice
and the interior, reigned yesterday, in
consequence of n dive'gence of opinion
with President Peixoto. This shows
that the position of President Peixoto is
weakening.
“I have seen a copy of two official de
spatches sent to Rio Grand * by the war
minister, who is beginning to use every
effort to prot**ct the retreat of General
Oacal and to retrieve the great disaster
resulting from the defeat of General Isi-
<ioro Nov. 23.
‘•Several officers have been arrested
during the past week on suspicion of
•simplicity in the revolution. The gov
ernment has suspended tho Rio News,
an English newspaper whose editor is an
American. During the past week there
has been some slight skirmishing in tho-
viclnity of Nicthoroy and Annacao, with
small casualties and no result. Tho ar
tillery tire of tho forts upon Fort Vil-
lcgngnon continues daily without ap
parent alteration of the situation.
“On Wednesday night I visited Fort
Villegagnon in an insurgent launch.
When we passed between Cobras island
and Fort Villegagnon, the troops lining
the shore front opened a heavy rifle fire
and Fort Villegagnon replied briskly,
ROMANTIC ROVERS.

A Couplo Who Bare Made
Several Cities.
Philadelphia, Dec. 20.—Quito a ro
mance is entwined around the lives of
Annie Waldeck and W. A. H.Waldeck,
alias Capt Hibbard, who were arrested
on Friday, charged with stealing a dia
mond ring from the store of Bailey,
Banks & Biddle. On the woman were
lound two diaries, three handsome stick
pins set with diamonds and pearls and
two checks for trunks that had been sent
to New York. The diaries showed that
the couple had started from .Buffalo and
li;id visited Baltimore and Washington.
When they left home they, had $20,
when arrested $22 was found in their
possession.
The police of Baltimore and Washing
ton were notified and the trunks were
brought on lrom New York. An officer
from Baltimore identified oneof the pins
as having been stolen in that city. The
trunks were found to be foil of papers
and newspaper clippings. They proved
that the woman was the daughter of
well to do people of Loudon, Ont. She
had married a man named Cozzens in
Detroit, who died a year or so ago, leav
ing her some property. She had been
married to Waldeck in Loudon iu Feb
ruary.
ihe police say Waldeck is an adven
turer. IIo was born in Holland, and
lived for yea is in Java, and had also
been a captain in the east Indian army.
On his arrival in the United States he
had lectured with success through Can-
‘Java and Its Resources.” This

brought him into prominence, and be

killing and wounding a hundred sol
diers.
"I found the fortress much damaged.
All the buildings are in ruins, and the
masonry of the centre, towards the
mouth of the harbor, is much cut away
in consequence of the shelling it has re
ceived from the government forts.
“The guns were working well, hut are
greatly exposed, and three wero dis
mounted. 200 officers and men form tho
garrison. All were cheery, contented
and confident of ultimate success. I ex
amined the fortress thoroughly and con
sider that it can resist for two months
longer. On Saturday night 1,500 gov
ernment troops, lining the shore near
tho war and marine arsenals, opened a
heavy fire from machine guns and rifles
upon Corbras Island, to cWor the ad
vance of storming parties. Corbras
Island replied strongly, causing tho
troops to abandon the attempt after two
hours’ heavy firing, the government los
ing over 100 men and the insurgents
having only two men wounded. Tim
firing on both sides was very wild.
“The government proposes landing
troops npon the Island of Governador,
now belonging to the insurgents, to pre
vent supplies reaching the insurgents.
The latter are prepared to resist. The
insurgents intend keeping up a contin
uous fire upon the custom house, thru
preventing all future business. m
"The insurgents have seized the steam
er Parahyba, flying the Argentine flag,
carrying war material ana provisions
and proceeding to Santos and Rio
Grande. The vessel refusing to heave
to, the insurgents fired, killing one and
wounding four. The insurgents then
loakded her.
“Admiral de Mello wired on Saturday
asking Admiral De Gama to send him
another transport to carry troops. Many
important business houses propose clos
ing their doors until the end of the revo
lution, as they consider that the present
situation is too dangerous. The British
minister has notified the community that
much danger exists at the present time,
and advisee residents to leave the city.
“Many people consider that the time
has arrived for recognition of the belig-
erent status of the insurgents.”
Bristoi^ Dec. 20.—Walter Sherman
and Ann Davis, two colored people of
the eastern suburbs of this city, were
murdered sorno time Sunday* night. No
one save tho murderer knew anything of
the deed until morning when George
Hitt, stepfather of tho murdered man,
went to the Davis home where Walter
slept.
When he entered tho houso ho beheld
the victims lying across tho boil with
bullet holes in their heads. They had
expected some ono to enter during tho
night, os two pistols wero found under
the pillow. The suicide theory was er.
ploded when it was found that the weap
ons had not been need. Mat Davis, hus
band of the woman, was arrested on sus
picion. and it is generally thought that
he did the shooting, though he stated to
the coroner’s jury that he knew nothing
of the shooting. He came up from
Knoxville Sunday evening, but says he
did not go homo, but spent the night
with his mother in the western part of
the city.
When he walked up to his house
where the inquest was being held, he
was immediately placed under arrest.
After testifying he was jailed. Davis is
a half brother of Charley Clemens, who
is now serving a term of 20 years in tho
Tennessee penitentiary for the murder of
Sallia Carter in 1831. Sherman was 22
or 23 years old and unmarried.
