THE WAV CROSS HERALD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1893. 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. Record la 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 Waycross-Air Line Railroad- Don’t Neglect This Opportunity to Secure a Home ada c brought him into prominence, and be was instrum ntal in inducing prominent A DOUBLE MUI i Negro*» Km*,! -| n the 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.

Wilkesbarrk, Pa., Dec. 20.—About the middle of last October while Harvey Spooaenberg, a jonng man of Hazleton, was driving with a woman in that city, his buggy was run into by a Pennsyl vania passenger train.

Oneof the officials called npon him, and after much bar- called npon him, and after much bar gaining ne agreed to make a settlement lor $600. promising that he would not trouble the company with any suit. The settlement was made, and when Spoonenburg’s relatives heard of it there was so much quiet talk that Detective Hefferan, of too company, was put on the case. After dose investigation, it is said, he discovered that Spoonenberg’s wife was living in a small town in the lower part of the state, and that the wo man who hod been killed was a disrepu table character.
