PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 5. —N ever in the his-
tory of Philadelphia has the death of one
of its citizens caused more widespread re-
gret than has that of George W. Childs,
the eminent publisher and philanthropist.
The city is bowed in mourning, and tele-
grams of condolence from prominent per-
sons in this and other countries are being
received by the score.
Mrs. Emma Bouvler Peterson Childs, the
wife and loving helpmate of the philan-
thropist and an earnest and affectionate
partner in all of the latter’s labors, pleas-
ures and vocations, did not witness his
death. So buoyant were her hopes that
Mr. Childs would recover—a fact partially
attributable to the encouraging bulletin
of the physicians before death came—that
she conferred with her family associates
as to what she and Mr. Childs would do
when the husband should regain his health.
The sudden change for the worse and
finally the bulletin of the doctors that dis-
solution was inevitable prostrated her.
Mr. Childs was unconscious from 8:30 p.
111. until the end, and his death was pain-
less As one of the physicians described
it, “Mr. Childs simply ceased to breathe.”
Speaking of the dead philanthropist,
Bishop Whittaker said Mr. Childs was a
typical American citizen. He was a lover
of his country and an ardent supporter in
its time of trial. His devotion to literature
and art took the beautiful form of friend-
ship to artists and literary men.
His sense of justice made him the friend
of every man who earns his daily bread
and the advocate of his interests. The
church found in him a faithful adherent
and a liberal supporter. As a high mindn
GEOR 713 W. CllILDS.
ed, right principled journalist, he had no
superior. First pure, then penceable, seems
to have been his motto in everything he
wrote or published. The announcement
of his death will bring sadness to many
hearts in both hemispheres, and his mem-
ory will be honored wherever his name is
known. .
Archbishop Ryan said: “I have always
regarded Mr. Childs as a natural philan-
thropist. To relieve distress and make
others happy was not as much the result
of principle and intention in him as it was
an instinct of his heart. It was a passion
with him. If it pleased him to be compli-
mented on this, this pleasure did not arise
from ostentation, nor was it the motive
for future acts of beneficence. I have
known him to be most generous when the
outside world knew nothing of his chari-
ties. The religious element in his nature
elevated and intensified his human philan-
thropy.
”As an. employer Mr. Childs was a
model. Having risen from the ranks him-
self, he ever felt sympathy with honest la-
b'or. After a certain numberof years of
service he pensioned those whom he had
employed and even showed himself a father
to them. \Vere capital always represented
by such men as he, labor would never be
found its antagonist and anarchy should
hide its head. '
“A man whose leading characteristic is
benevolence is likely to be estimated by
superficial thinkers as more or less weak.
This is a great injustice to such men. Mr.
Childs was a man of much greater strength
of character than many imagined.”
Henry Irving, who made the chief speech
on the occasion of the opening of the
Shakespeare fountain, presented. by Mr.
Childs to the town of Straford-on-Avon,
said last night: _‘
“I knew Mr. Childs as my friend, and a
sweeter, kinder friend I never knew. Such
a citizen is a loss to a nation. He seemed
to have strewn, as far as one man could,
the path of all with roses without thorns.
He realized in every truth Shakespeare’s
lines:
The kindest man,
The best condition‘d and unwearied spirit
In doing courtesies.
“Even with my own scope of knowledge
I know of so many kindnesses which he
did, so many benefits which he conferred
and all unknown to those who received
them that I could not if I would but hold
him in my memory as a rare and perfect
man, of whom I never heard aught but
good.”

The death of Mr. Childs will not alter
the policy of The Public Ledger, nor will
any changes he made in the management
of the paper. .By an agreement entered
into by Mr. Child; and the late Anthony
J. Drcxel and in accordance with a provi-
sion in the latter’s will the Drexel estate
will now purchase from Mrs. Childs the
interest Mr. Childs held in The Ledger and
will accordingly own the paper absolutely.
The four surviving children of Anthony J.
Drexel—John R. Drexel, Mrs. John R. Fell,
Anthony J. Drexrl and George IV. Childs
Drexol—will hold equal shares in the prop-
erty.
Never Known to Be Angry.
George \V. Drexel was installed as pulr
lisher of The Ledger early in October last,
and he will continue in this capacity and
have sole charge of the plant.
At the Ledger building, at Sixth and
Chestnut streets, a knot of black ribbon
was attached to the knob of each door. To
each knot was pinned one of Mr. Childs’
engraved visiting cards. W'ritten under
his name was the announcement, “Died
Feb. 3, 1894.”
At the beginning of Mr. Childs’ illness
City Editor McW’ade of The Ledger, at the
request of Mrs. Childs, placed a reporter
in the house, and the physicians’ bulletins,
as they were prepared from time to time,
were given out through The Ledger re-
porter. Consccfucntly there was an ab-
sence of the hurrying to and fro of carri-
ages containing reporters which usually
attend the last days of a great public man.
NO definite action has yet been taken in
regard to Mr. Childs’ funeral, but the serv-
ice. will be held at St. James’ church, of
which Mr. Childs was a vestryman. In-
terment will be either in Woodland or
Laurel Hill cemetery.
In person Mr. Childs was rather below
the’medium height. He was inclined to
be stout, but made it a rule to walk to and
from his office and to live very temperate-
ly. He had a bright, smiling, amiable
face and was never known to be out of
temper. He was gifted with the faculty
of placing every one at ease in his com~
pany, and it was said of him that he gave
a Christmas dinner to newshoys and boot-
blacks or dined traveling dukes and earls
with the same ease and familiarity.
Mr. Childs leaves a widow and no other
direct relatives.

DYNAMITE FOR DAGlMl
English Interests Working For the
Brazilian Insurgents. ‘
PEIXOTO MAKES A BIG HAUL.
Ila Captures a. British Vessel Loaded lVlth
the Deadly Explosive That “’43: In-
tended For the Rebel Admiral.
Government Troops Defeated.
RIO DE J ANEIRO, Feb. 5.-The excite-
ment created in this city and harbor by
the action of United States Admiral Ben-
ham a. few days ago in firing upon one of
Insurgent Admiral da Game’s warships in
order to teach the revolutionists’ the les-
son that they must not wantonly bombard
vessels carrying the stars and stripes had
not died out when a fresh sensation was
created yesterday by the summary seizure
of a British tug by order of Peixoto.
There is no telling what fresh complica-
tions may arise from this incident, and
the British residents here, who for some
days past have had a good deal to say
about Admiral Benham’s conduct, now
find the all absorbing topic of conversation
with them to be Peixoto’s very decided in.
terference with the schemes of some of
their countrymen in this city.
For a long time it has been well known
that the sympathies ofthe English officers
and civilians in Rio harbor and city have
been almost altogether on the side of the
insurgents,and not satisfied with encourag-
ing the revolutionists by words, supplies
of food, coal, etc., and with money have
been smuggling aboard the insurgent ships
arms, ammunition and even dynamite.
Peixoto and his advisers have for along
period felt a good deal of anger on this
point, and the Brazilians who favor the
government cannot be persuaded that the
explosions some time . ago in the harbor;
by which a party of English sailors were
killed, was not due to the fact that these
sailors were just then engaged in manu-
facturing dynamite for the .. rebel navy,
and they insist that the explosion was
caused by an order from Peixoto to throw
a. shell into the midst of the dynamite
manufacturers and put an end to their at
tempt to aid the insurgents.
The Dynamite Captured.
Ever since this incident Peixoto has
kept a. very sharp watch upon themove-
ments of the English ashore and afloat,
and the result of the sharp lookout which
has been maintained by the government
officials resulted in the seizure yesterday.
The boat captured by Peixoto’s men is the
tug Cardiff. the‘ property of an English
coal company. She arrived here some days
ago loaded with coal, which she promptly
proceeded to discharge, and has since re-
mained in the harbor.
Of late the movements aboard her have
been of a mysterious character, and the
actions of her crew aroused the suspicion
of the Brazilian officials. Shortly after
she left the wharf at which she had been
loading with a cargo, about which her
men were reticent, she was overhauled by
one of Peixoto’s boats and commanded to
stop. With some reluctance her captain
obeyed the order, and the Brazilian offi~
cials promptly went aboard, despite the
vigorous protests of her captain.
A few moments’ search shOWed the Bra-
zilians that their suspicions were well
founded. The Cardiff had stored between
her decks a quantity of dynamite sufficient
to have played a great deal of havoc with the
government forts and other strongholds.
The Cardiff, it was then learn’ed,was taking
the dynamite to the insurgent warship
Trajano, which is lying just outside the
entrance to the bay. Informing her cap-
tain that he had been detected in the act of
smuggling the explosive aboard a vessel
belonging to the enemies of the govern-
ment, the Brazilian officialscompelled him
to return to the wharf, where the dynamite
was taken ashore and put in possession of
those loyal to Peixoto.
Instantly the news spread throughout
the city and became known on board all
the warships in the harbor. The matter
was reported by the captain of the Cardiff
to the British officials, but nothing has so
far been done except the cabling of the
captain’s statement and of Peixoto’s rea-
sons for making this seizure to the home
government.
Government Troops Defeated.
News has just been received here of a.
battle at Curitiba, a manufacturing town
108 miles west of Paranagua and situated
on the left bank of the Curitiba river. It
was fiercely fought, and its result was for
a long:time in doubt. At first the govern-
ment troops seemed to have the advantage.
but the insurgents, urged on by their offi-
cers, who displayed a great deal of bravery,
regained what they had lost and finally
drove their enemies from the field.
It is said that between 3,000 and 4,000 men
Were engaged on each side. The govern—
ment troops are said to have had 200 men
killed. The number of injured on their
side is very large, but no estimate can be
fixed. The insurgents also suffered con-
siderable loss, and while the number of
men killed in their ranks was not quite I0
large as the number of the government
troops it is nevertheless asserted that it
reached over 100. As the report of the
battle was brought to Rio by government
messengers, the inability to fix the number
of killed on the insurgent side is explained.
Admiral de Mello has apparently recov-
ered from his recent severe attack of ill-
ness, as word has been received that he has
been very active within the past few days
in the southern part of the republic and
has succeeded in sending 1,000 men to the
north. It is supposed that De Mello. real-
izing that a battle was imminent at Cari~
tiba, dispatched the 1,000 men in order to
give aid, if necessary, to the insurgent
army. The victory of the insurgents at
Curitiba will undoubtedly lead to the two
insurgents forces joining in an advance
upon the north, and as Peixoto is making
every effort to check them an engagement
. between the opposing armies is imminent
near Santos.
Admiral da.Gama has again asked the
foreign ministers in Rio to recognize the
insurgents as belligerents. They have,
however, up to the time of sending thls‘
dispatch made no renlv to his message. '
recon armor. PLATE.
It Throw Back the F378 Hundred Pound
Projectile, Breaking It In Two.
BETHLEHEM, Pa, ‘Feb. 5,—Under the
supervision of Commodore W. T. Samp-
son, chief of the United States bureau of
ordnance, and Lieutenant F. P. Alger, a
member of the ordnance board, a. very suc-
cessful test of armor plate, which was man-
ufactured by the Bethlehem Iron company
and which had notbeen treated by the
Harvey process, was made at the proving
rounds at Rediugton Saturday afternoon.
‘he plate tested 'was one of those which
are being made for the side armor of' the
United States cruiser Puritan, now build-
ing at the Brooklyn navyyard.
The result of the test gave the greatest
satisfaction to the government officials.
The tested plate was 18 feet long and 6
feet wide. It tapered from 6 to 14 inches
in thickness. The projectiles, weighing
500 pounds, vcrc fired from a 10 inch gun
at 360 feet distance. The gun was aimed at
a point on the thickest part of the plate,
and a charge of 132 pounds of powder was
used.
With a velocity of 1,381 feet to the sec-
ond the projectile was hurled against the
plate. It struck the mark fairly and re-
bounded, broken in two pieces. It had
penetrated the 14 inch plate to a depth of
12% inches, but not a. crack in the armor
was visible. A second shot was made to
determine how far the projectile could
penetrate the plate and its oak backing.
If it did not‘go clean through, the test
would be considered successful.
The same size projectile was used as in
the first shot, but 40 pounds bf powder were
added to the char e, making 17?. pounds
used in the sccoh firing. The projectile
this time attained a velocity of 1,630 feet.
It penetrated through the 14 inch plate and
1% inches further into the oak backihg, a
total penetration of 15% inches. The result
of the second shot was considered as suc—
cessful as the first, and all the side armor
of the Puritan, amounting to about 400
tons, was accepted for the government.
Commodore Sampson paid a high tribute
to the plate made by the Bethlehem Iron
company. He said that he had seen tests
made of plate manufactured in this coun-
try and in Europe, and none excelled that
turned out by the Bethlehem company.
