The Connecticut Indemnity Ascocia- tion, W’aterbury, Conn. GENTLEMEN:—Your agent, G. A. Franke, having just handed me a New York draft for $368. 57, I wish to publicly thank you for' your promptness and square dealing. I am satisfied from my experience with you that since I. was insured for'five thousand dollars, with weekly accident benefits of twenty dollars in 1889, that your company al- ways will act for the best interests of its policy holders. Your ready payment of my claim for eighteen weeks and three days con- firms my good opinion of you. Wishing you the success that you so well deserve, I remain Very trul yours, ( Signed)‘ INC. W. BANKS. NEW HAVEN, CONN., Dec. 6th, 1890. GENTLEMEN :—-Letm e thank you most sincerely for your promptness in pay- ing me my claim of $1,000 on the policy issued to my late husband,Isaac Watts. I shall always bless the day that he in- sured his life in your company. You have done me a great favor by paying the claim before it was due. My hus- band had only paid in $97.76, and I have received such great benefit. . Yours very gratefully, ( Signed) SARAH A. WATTS. PROVIDENCE, R. 1., Jan. 24, 1891. The Connecticut Indemnity Association: Let me thank you for your prompt and courteous treatment. Mr. W. A. Armstrong formerly of Norwicli,Conn., was insured in your company more than six years ‘ago, and the entire cost to him, at the age of 58, to carry $1,000 insurance, providing $5 per week in case of disability, was only $101.75, or $16.40 per year. Deducting the bene- fits paid him during his life, the net cost of his $1,000 insurance was only $11.75. This money will prove a great help to me. Had he invested the same money in the savings bank, he would have realized nothing during his disa- bility. and would have left me only $113.16, instead of the $1,000 at death. but $303 insurance for the money paid to your company by my husband. ( Signed) ELIZABETH ARMSTRONG. ' DANEURY,CONN., June 16, 1891. I thank you most sincerely for your very prompt payment of the insurance money due under policy 921,0n mylate husband, J. Beardsley. He had been insured in your companysince 1884, and had always found you generous and reliable in your dealings with him as a policy-holder. My thanks are es pecially due your company, because, although Mr. Beardsley, while tempo- rarily deranged. committed suicide, still you in no res ect questioned the validity of my c aim. The payment was not due me by the terms of the policy till August 27th. You have paid me seventy days in advance. MRS EMILY BEARDSLEY. LONG ISLAND CITY, N. Y., July 28-, ’91; E. A.

UNEASINESS IN BRAZIL. l‘ivo Governors Compelled to Resign in Order to Restore Peace. l LONDON, Dec. 21.—News ,from Pernam- buco has been received here stating that the populace of that place had revolted against the governor. The troops sent to put down the rebellion fired upon the people and, it is said, killed sixty of the mob and wounded a large number. The governor has resigned Ind peace once more reigns. This Governor Also Resigned. LONDON, Dec. 21.——A dispatch from Rio Ianeiro says that a revolution has broken out in Espirito Santo. The people revolted against the governor, who was obnoxious to “ them, and compelled him to resign. From Bahia it is reported that the situation of affairsis critical and that an outbreak in WALT WHITMAN VERY ILL. The Aged Poet Stricken with Bronchial Pneumonia. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 21.—Walt Whitman is a very sick man. Mr. Whitman has been a confirmed invalid for nearly two years and has not been down stairs for more than two months.

It soon developed into bronchial pneum‘onia. ‘ N 0 one is allowed to see the aged poet but his doctor, his male attendant and hishouse- keeper. There are frequently messages from friends at home and abroad inquiring as to his condition. He does not fear death.

The American Legation in Santiago, Chili, Besieged. OMINOUS THREATS MADE. To Get the Refugees Now Under Illinister Egan’s Piotection the; Building May Be Blown Up—Thls Outbreak May Lead to Serious Difliculties. WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-—An important dispatch has been received at the state de- partment from Minister. Egan which in- dicates the existence of a. most serious state of affairs in Santiago and warrants grave apprehension as to the outcome of the Chilian episode. ' The translation of the dis- patch follows: . A Mob Around the Legation. “The American legation is surrounded by the police and a. mob on account of the refugees here. Threats are being made of burning or blowing up the legation to get them. A United States ship is in port, but many miles from the legation. The refu- gees cannot fly, but must stay in the lega- tion, which is besieged.” . This cablegram has created consternation ig_t_h_e__navy department, which was fur nished with a copy by the segretary of state. Another copy was taken to the White House and submitted to the president. ' Attitude of the Authorities. A cablegram to Minister Egan has been prepared instructing him to report at once upon the attitude of the local authorities and as to the part which the police are play- ing in the affair. It is important to know Whether the police are spying upon the legs.- tion as heretofore or whether they have been detailed to prevent. the mob from car- rying out the threats described in Minister Egan’s cablegram. It is believed at the navy department that the demonstrations referred to could not be made if the proper protection was given to the American legation by the Chilian gov- ernment. _ ‘ Force May Have to Be Used. If the situation is as grave as Minister Egan appears to think, the navy depart— ment officials are convinced that only force can rescue the refugees now under the pro- ' tection of the American minister. At no stage of the proceedings has there been so great a probability as now that forcible ac- tion will be taken by this government. A Prompt Verdict Wanted. The immediate effect of Minister Egan’s cablegram will probably be to cause Secre- tary Blaine to demand a. prompt verdict from the Valparaiso court charged with the investigation of the assault upon the sailors of the Baltimore. In_the event that the reply of the Chilian government is unsatisfactory the Whole matter will undoubtedly be laid before con- gress for such action as may be deemed ad- visable. Concentrating War Vessels. In the meantime the navy department will take the necessary steps' to mass the largest possible naval force in the harbor of Valparaiso. Should Minister Egan report any further hostile demonstration on the part of the in- habitants of Santiago the president will promptly serve an ultimatum upon the Chil- ian government, and the navy department will prepare with all speed to back it up.
