WAS ENGLAND BEHIND HIM? Possibility That He May Have \Vanted to Surrender to Benham Rather Than to Potato—Awaiting Eur-ther Particulars From Rio. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1. — There iS' great though suppressed enthusiasm in naval circles over the course things have taken in Brazil. It is said that there are 80 mer- chautmen in Rio harbor bearing the Brit- ish flag. They have fumed and fretted and practically been rotting in the harbor without being able to land their cargoes. The fact that the American government has taken the initiative in insisting upon the commercial rights of its citizens in a foreign port is cherished as a glorious be. ginning for the new navy. It is considered that Great Britain will now feel forced to definitely assume an at titude and disclose her sentiment toward parties in Brazil. It looks as though she would either have to follow the lead of the United States and insist on the right of her merchant vessels to land cargoes in Rio unmolested or to recognize the insurgents as belligerents. If the insurgents acquire belligerent rights, their blockade of Rio could not be interfered with. There are some questions yet to be an- swered as to whether Da Gama has not been impelled to his bold action by a promise from some power that he would ultimately be recognized as a belligerant. The only power likely to take such a course is Great Britain. When Da Gama first gave notice that the anchorage for merchantmen was to come within the line of fire, the difficulty of making landings was obviated by lighters for cargoes, and the United States, urged by conservative motives, allowed the point to the insur- gents. But Da Gama has encroached still fur- ther on the same line until it had come to be so that no landings of merchandise could be achieved. Then Admiral Benham took the matter into his hands and an- nounced to the department here that he proposed to secure the right of. American merchantmcu to land their cargoes at the wharves. It it suggested as another motive to lead Du Gama to so aggressive an action that, seeing his cause hopeless, he might desire to surrender himself into the hands of the United States authorities rather than to Peixoto and was trying to give Admiral Benham provocation to capture him. It is not considered that any such provocation was given. The peremptory announcement of Com- mander Brownson of the Detroit after the second shot was fired at the American merchantman, that if there was another shot fired he would sink the Brazilian ves- sel, seems to have effectually put a stop to any further advance by the insurgents. As nearly as can be learned, the official report to the department shows that the white vessels of the American fleet lined up between the insurgent fleet and the merchantman which was being convoyed. There are rumors that two men were in- jured on the Detroit. The probability that they were injured by shot is denied quite positively. It is believed that they were hurt by the breech mechanism of one of the guns, if the report of their injury be correct. The Bennington, now in the Mediterra- nean, has been ordered to the Pacific sta- tion,and orders have been issued for the transfer of her surgeon to the Detroit upon her arrival at Bio. The proposal to have the Bennington touch at Rio is believed to be only an incident of her trip to the Pa.- cific and is not to be made with any pur- pose to strengthen the United States naval forces there. N 0 official statement can be had of Ad- miral Benham’s report of the incident. Until something further is heard from him it has been decided not to give out any- thing,r on the subject. Admiral Benham has been asked for further information by the department. The English Press Opinions. LONDON, Feb. 1,—The St. James Gazette, commenting on the Benham-Da Game in- cident, says, “The precious Monroe doc- trine seems to be construed into allowing the United States alone to interfere in South American affairs.” The Globe remarks: “Admiral du Gama tried to bully Admiral Benham and got the worst of it. Events show that Admi- ral Benham does not take the same view of the affair as Lord Rosebery, the British secretary of foreign affairs, who, replying toa correspondent, wrote that he regretted the deplorable state of affairs in Brazil, but said that the government cannot de— part from its general policy of noninter- vention in the affairs of a foreign state. Lord Rosebery added that the British na- val oflicer at Rio de J aneiro was giving the same protection to British subjects as oth- er foreigners were receiving from the na- val forces of their respective govern- ments.” Continuing, The Globe says if Washing- ton indorses Admiral Benham’s action England~ will be at direct variance with the United States on a. vitally important provision of international law. “The Exchange Telegraph company says that dispatches have been received in this city today, which appear to establish be- yond a. doubt that Admiral da Gama .pro« posed to surrender to Admiral Benham and that he would have done so had it not been for the fact that his officers refused to permit him to carry out his intention. It is also again announced here that Ad- miral de Mello has captured Curitiba and a large quantity of specie. Were They Not In “Real Earnest?" BUENOS Areas, Feb. 1.——Dispatches re ceived here from Rio de J aneiro say that the Brazilian insurgents are making prep- arations for a vigorous attack upon Santos and Sao Paulo. The news that firing had taken place between the United States warships and the insurgent vessels seems to have been greatly exaggerated. Dispatches received state that only sig- nal shots were exchanged. and that no shot was fired in real earnest. It is added that the insurgents feel very much discouraged at Admiral do. Gama’s practical surrender to the United States admiral, and it is re- ported that the younger ofi‘icers are In favor of having Admiral da Gama replaced by a younger and more energetic com- mander. - A Famous Trotter Dead.
