Buenos Ayrrs Advices Allege Large Losses For Pclxoto In Vessels, Men, Arms and Ammunition—London Press Angry With Banham.’ LONDON, Feb. 24.—-—A dispatch from Buc- nos Ayres by the way of Lisbon makes an unqualified denial of the report that the insurgents were defeated in their latest at- tack upon Nlctheroy. The dispatch says that, on the contrary, Admiral da Gama disabled the government batteries and captured all their arms and ammunition, including 5 quick firing guns, 11 mitrailleuses and 10 mauser guns and 1,500,000 cartridges. The same dispatch says that government troops made an unsuccessful attack upon Fort Villegaignon, but were repulsed, their launches and boats sunk and 400 men killed. British Rage at Beialrum. The Pall Mall Gazette, cpmmenting on the application of the captain of the British merchantman Nasmyth to Admiral Ben- ham for protect-ion, enabling the Nasmyth to obtain a supply of water in the harbor of Rio de Janeiro, says, “If the command— er of the British fleet at Rio does not pro- pose to protect British subjects following lawful vocations, it is diflicult to under- stand why he is there at all.” The St. James Gazette says: “Surely Lord Roseberry does not acquiesce in the doctrine that the sole right of interven- tion belongs to the United States. That British sailors should be compelled to seek the protection of Admiral Benham is hu- miliating in the extreme.” The Globe says: “Admiral Benham is doubtless at liberty to bully the insur- gents as much as he pleases. But that is quite a different thing from offering a most injurious insult to the British navy. “Unless the story of his putting the Nas- myth under the protection of the Amer- ican flag is untrue, it should be the duty of the British government to demand an immediate apology from the government of the United States for the extraordinary conduct of its oflicer.” Typical Texas Fight. GALLATIN, Tex., Feb. 24.—The story ot a double tragedy comes from Hughesville, Macon county. Fuller Lawson, an em- ployee of Ben Hudson, felled some trees in a stream that was the dividing line be- tween the places of Hudson and Frank Conyer. Conycr called upon Lawson and said he must quit. Lawson would not. Conyer then attempted to shoot. Lawson struck him with his ax, inflicting a fatal wound. Finally Conyer succeeded in get- ting two balls through Lawson’s body and one through his head, killing him outright. \Vhisky Trust Advances Prices. PEORIA, 1113., Feb. 2«i.—-The most impor- tant action taken at the meeting of the ex- ecutive committee of the \Vhisky trust was to increase the price of spirits in bond 1 cent.
