J.IO Jam-711:3, Jan. :31.——.-‘. conflict be—
tween the American and insurgent fleets
is still p! ssilsle. Admiral da Gama. is
angry because, the younger officers are
eager to fight. The admiral said to the
United Press correspondent last night:
“It would be better tobe conquered by a
foreign power than to yieled later to
Prixoto.”
The in; and launches promised to the
G 10d News were not. furnished.
" ‘ lil‘:0;.t st: a'ncr Parahyba an-
ohorel n a th e i‘ening position
near, cz- . e tar a}; n1 )l‘llillg, and may fire
when sh: 5 wt: in 10-day." In that case a
531‘. u . conflic‘; is inevitable.
The situation was extremely delicate
Monday when the Detroit was beside the
Good News. The Guanabara and Tra-
jano had their guns loaded and aimed on
all the American vessels, while the two
insurgent tugs were ready to ram the
Detroit. .
The Guanabara and Trajano together
have eight splendid rifles, but when the
Detroit fired a six-pound shell into the
Guauabara, and Captain Brownson
warned them that if another gun was
fired, even by accident, he would sink
them, and advised that they take the men
from their guns, they weakened.
Admiral Benh in had the Newark
ready to aid the Detroit, while the New
York, Charleston and San Francisco were
alert to receive the Aquidaban and Tam-
andare, which were under steam.
Admiral Benham said last. night: “If
Admiral da Gama. was contending for
any principle or for any position in which
any civilized nation would sustain him,
he ought to make a fight, but he is wrong
in law everywhere in opposing us.”
The commander of the Austrian war
ship has asked Rear Admiral Benham to
be allowed to help in case of a fight. The
German naval officers applaud Benham.
The English ofiicers naturally are in op-
position, while not denying that Benham's
position is lawful.
Bcnham now has two propositions re—
garding arbitration, but he will not. reveal
them. A settlement by such means, how-
ever, is at. present. improbable. \Vhile
angry at his decision, the insurgents com-
ment upon Benham’s great courtesy and
tact in the negotiations. The day before
the conflict Benham notified the city au-
thorities that the water front would likely
be endangered.
A cOnsultation of tl e senior officers of
the foreign naval vessels will be held to—
day on the San Francisco.
Admiral da Gama had fair warning
that American vessels would be protected.
On Saturday the American bark Amy,
Capt. Blackford, from Baltimore; the
American bark Good News, Capt. My-
rick, also from Baltimore, and the Julia
Rollins gave notice that they were going
to the Sandro piers. Admiral da Gama
learned of this and notified Admiral Ben-
ham that if the three vessels attempted to
go to the piers referred to he would fire on
them.
Admiral Benham at once replied that
the vessels would go to the piers if they
wanted to, and that he would send the
Detroit to protect them. If the Detroit
could not furnish sufficient protection
every vessel of the American squadron
would be employed in the work of protec-
tion.
In the meantime an American citizen,
G. M. Rollins, who had acted as the agent
of Admiral da Gama. in the arbitration
negotiations, had visited all three of the
American merchantmen and offered to
have them towed at the expense of the in-
surgents if they would not go to the piers.
This the captains of the merchantmen
agreed to. The arrangement was re-
ported to Admiral da. Gama. on board of
his flagship, the Liberdade. He then re-
plied: “It is too late. The glass is
broken. I must yield to this foreign fleet
of superior force. I will resign and give my
sword to the American admiral.”
Later in the day Admiral do. Gama.
called a council of his officers, expecting
that all of them would seek an asylum on
board the American fleet, but the younger
officers would not yield. It was stated at '
the council that Admiral Benham had
offered Admiral da Gama and his officers
asylum on board of the American war-
ships.
Admiral Benham said that Admiral da
Gama, by his failure to surrender, had"
lost an easy way out of his trouble. He
added, “However, that is nothing to me,
but we have established our principle.”
THE NEWS IN “WASHINGTON.
‘mrk
Admiral Benham’s Action Approved.
Much Interest in the Afi’air.
WASHINGTON, J an. 31‘.——At the navy de-
partment this morning no further news
concerning, the critical condition of affairs
I
at Rio‘than that contained in last night's ’
dispatches had been received. it was
postively asserted at- the state department
that Secretary Gresham had received
nothing whatever from Minister Thomp-
son, and that his only information as to
Rio complications was obtained from Ad-
miral Benham’s despatches of last‘night.
The cable message from Bcnham, giving
an account of the vigorous measures
taken by him to stop interference with
American merchantmeu by da Gama,
was received by Secretary Herbert. at his »
home. It was transmitted in naval cipher,
and the secretary immediately sent; for
Lieutenant Mulligan, the cipher trans-
lator of the navy department. For several
hours Lieutenant Mulligan Worked on
the message, and then handed a trans-
lated copy to the secretary, who was
waiting to receiveit. A copy was imme-
diately prepared for Secretary Gresham,
an d it was delivered at his hotel at once.
Members of the senate committee on for-
cign relations, and of the house commit-
tcc on foreign affairs, who have seen the
despatch, say its purport is to the follow-
ing effect:
Admiral Benham, finding that Ad-
miral da Gama persisted in reckless
firing that endangered the safety
of American merchant; vessels, entered a
protest. Da Gama. paid no heed to this,
end lilo-uday Benham sought to warn the
insurgent- admiral by clearing his decks
for action. then da Gama refused to
take this hint, Benham fired several shots
across the bow of da Gama’s flagship.
T llS had an immediate and salutary
effect and the matter ended at that. point,
so far as Admiral Benham’s dispatches
disclose.
The American squadron, consisting of
the cruiser New York, the finest ship in
the navy, the cruisers Detroit, Newark,
Charleston and the flagship San Francisco,
are, of course, overwhelmingly superior
to anything that (la. Gama. has to bring
against him.
The news of Admiral Benham’s action
was regarded as of such importance that
Secretary Herbert laid the matter before
President- Cleveland and the two discussed
the situation until the cabinet met. The
questions presented were considered at
the meeting and press dispatches from
Rio were also carefully read in the hope
that they would throw some new light; on
the aspect of affairs. After the meeting
adjourned, Secretary Herbert declined to
make pubiieany information sent- by Atl-
miral Benham. lle said. howover, that
he had heard nothing from the admiral
concerning the reported surrender of (la
Gama to b‘cnham, but if anything addi-
tional came in from Rio he would make it
public, providing it had no political
bearing.
The course of the American admiral
finds warm endorsement. in oflicial circles.
An oflicial a prominence told the United
Press reporter that Admiral Bcn‘nam had
a perfect right to interfere with da Game’s
movements when they became a menace
to the interests of American vessels. The
insurgents, he said, had not been recog-
nized as belligerents by the United States
orany other nation. They had no right
to establish a blockade, but they had done
so. Yet in establishing it, they took no
means to enforce it by giving warning to
incoming vessels. He believed Benhani
had done right and that- he would be en-
dorsed by the administration for stopping
the arrogance of da Gama.
BR] TISH. PRESS COll 3i EXT.
The Standard Believes the Rebels May
Yet. Viin.
LONDON, Jan. 31.—eThe Standard, in
commenting on the news from Rio Ja-
nciro, says that the only question now is
how far the \Vashington government
will approve and support Rear Admiral
Benham’s action. If the United States
no longer abstain from interference be-
tween the two factions, it says, Great
Britain and other. interested countries
will doubtless follow suit». The Standard
remarks that though such an event
may end the insurgent’s hope of con-
quering Peixoto by starving Rio, their
success in the provinces may enable
them eventually to triumph.
The Daily Telegraph says: “There will
be very general sympath with the Ameri—
cans’ decision not. to permit commerce to
become absolutely crippled by the wanton
struggle in Brazil.”
The Brazilian minister in London has
not. been informed of the surrender of
Admiral da. Gama t-o Rear-Admiral Ben—
ham, but has no doubt that the report to
that. effect is correct. He expresses the
opinion that the insurgents will be com-
pletely broken up by the surrender, and
that the end of the revolution is only a
question of a few days. '

ANOTHER RlOT IMPROBABLE.
Great Suffering in Mansfield Vslley~
Rioters Hold for the Grand Jury.
PITTSBURG, Jan. 31.~—The twenty-four
rioting miners brought from Mansfield.
yesterday by the sheriff’s pcsse and lodged
in jail, are vicious‘and rcpulsive looking.
The cases of all the rioters arrested
went immediately before the grand jury,
resulting in the indictment of 39 on the
charge of unlawful assembly and three
on the charge of arson and riot. They
are all foreigners.
The deputies who accompanied the pris—
oners state that there is much destitution
and suffering among the miners families
in the Mansfield valley and that. immedi-
ate steps for their support will have to be
taken. The deputies agree in the belief
that another outbreak among the miners
is now improbable. They state that sev-
eral mines in the district are now in Oper-
ation and that repairs are in progress at
those places damaged or destroyed by the
raiding rioters on Saturday. While the
officials are confident that the rioters will
not. renew their hostilities, deputies, in
sufficient numbers to protecn the coal
interests, will be continued on guard for
some time to come. '
The ruinous tour~rof the rioters means
a further delay in the resumption of many
mines, so that the 5,000 or more men who
calculated on resuming work this week
will be forced to remain idle.

Proceedings in Senate and House.
W'Asmxorox, Jan. 31.——The leading
feature of the proceedings of the senate
yesterday was 1the speech of Mr. Sherman,
who made a powerful defense of the au-
thority of the secretary of the treasury to
issue the bonds, of which he had given
notice, and solemnly declared that any
attempt to impair the credit of the gov-
ernment was not only unwise but. un-
patriotic. Before he had concluded his
speech, Mr. Sherman rebuked the dem-
ocrats for their attempt to interfere with
the tariff and said that any deficiency
created by such change in the tariff must.
bemet. by the democrats in their own
way. fr. Teller also spoke, admitting
the legality of the issue of bonds for
the purpose of maintaining the gold rt-
serve but declaring that the real intention
of the secretary was not within the letter
and spirit of the law, but that he wanted
bonds to provide him with money to pay
the current expenses of the govcrmncnt.
At the conclusion of the financial discus-
sion, Mr. Turpic, dorm, Ind, made a
speech favoring the repeal of the federal
election laws, in which he paid particular
attention to the operations Of the law in
the state of Indiana. At the conclusion
of his speech, Mr. Turpie and Mr. Chand-
ler got into a short altercation in which
Mr. Turpie retorted in language so sharp
that Mr. Hoar felt. constrained to call the
senator to order.
agreed that the general debate on the bill
should close at 4 o’clock on Tuesday next,
at which time debate on the amendments
should begin under the five minute rule
and proceed until the final vote was taken
on the bill the same day. The senate then
adjourned. '-
House of Representatives.
The entire day was given over to general
debate on the income tax bill, the main
interest centering around the speeches of
Bourke Cockran, of New York, against
the bill, and of Mr. Bryan, Nebrask, who
advocated it. Both came at the end of
the day’s proceedings and both created
great interest in the galleries. The other

Jersey Bloodmoney Cases.
BRIDGETON, N. J ., Jan. 31.—~The trial of
Excise Commissioners Norton \Vestcott
and Jacob Richman for extortion in de—
manding “bloodmoney” of saloonkeepers
for their licenses came to an abrupt termi-
nation yesterday. . Lawyer John S. Mitch-
ell withdrew their plea. of not guilty and
moved to quash the indictment. on the
ground that; the supreme court having
decided the excise commission law un-
constitutional they were not lawful offi-
cers and therefore the indictment against
them as such would not hold. Justice
rleed refused to quash the indictment but
granted a writ of certiorari, to take the
case immediately to the supreme court.

All else is more or
less uncertain!
Take your own case. What do you know about CARPETS, for instance? Are you
competent to detect poor materials, or imperfect weaving, or unreliable colorings, or
old style patterns? N 0.
Then Will it. not be wisdom on your part to make your purchases of carpets where
all these points are taken care of in your interest, and where you are protected, not
only from direct misrepresentation, but from the results of your own inexperience?
That seems plain enough.
Just. two things we promise to every customer; they are these.
That our salesmen shall tell the WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT EVERY PIECE OF
GOODS OFFERED FOR SALE; that anything which proves imperfect through the
appearance of any hidden defect subsequent to purchase, shall be made right.
The name of our firm stands behind these two guarantees.
Very likely you are thinking of purchasing one or more Carpets shortly.
