LIKE A ——— EARTHQUAKE. Buildings in New York Between Twenty- third and Fifty-ninth Streets Shaken. New Yorx, March 8.—Many persons living in that part of the city between 23d and 59th streets perceived a shock like that of an earth- quake at about 12:40 this morning.

L, March &—All Long Island seems to have felt what is now sup- posed to have been an earthquake at 12:30 o'clock this morning. At Long Island City the shock was — specially se- vere, in many instances shaking — pic- tures from the walls and creating havoc among chinaware and bric-a-brac. At several points persons fled in terror from their houses to the street in their night robes, supposing that the houses were settling or falling. Most of these persons sav that a dull boom and a strongly marked simultaneous trembling of the earth were perceptible. The seismic disturbances lasted several seconds and then passed away in a southerly direction, ———- OPPOSED TO A STRI E LAW. Views of the Grand Master of the Brother- hood of Kailway Trainmen. Gavespuna, Int., March 8.—8. E. Wilkinson, grand master of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, has defined his position on the threatened switchmen’s trouble growing out ot their demands for increased pay. There are many switchmen in the brotherhood and his attitude is deemed important. Mr. Wilkinsor: does not believe the demand under the circumstances is timely or judicous, and is advising the switchmen in bis organza- tion not to be implicated in any outbreak. His proposition is that railroad men will fait until the next big event when the companies are en- joving larger profits, and then ask a just share of these increased earnings — THE EASTERN LEAGUE'S GRIEVANCE.

For some weeks past a conflict hag been raging in that territory, which it is feared if not soon checked may lead to war be- tween the two greatest powers of the southern half of this hemisphere—Brazil and Argentina. A gentleman familiar with the progress of events and causes leading to them makes this state- ment: ‘The trouble in Rio Grande do Sul is not a revolution against the federal authority of Brazil, but a struggle between factions headed by Cas- tillios and Martins. The latter was formerly the most popular man in the state, and possibly has still the largest personal fol'owing. ‘The adherents of Castillios, however, are in pore ie the state and the contest ws been waged inst their authority. Martins has not n actively engaged in the affair, but is in Buenos Ayres. ‘The Brazilians in Washington believe that he is receiving moral and material support from the Argentine Republic, and now that the fed- eral government of Brazil has sent a force down to Atio Grande do Sul to suppress the insurrection a feel- ing prevails among them that after sccompliah- ing that the army will go on and invade Argen- tine territory, That the Brazilian goverament is contemplating the possibility of hostilities is Proven by the fact that she has 10,000 German rifles, which are now ready for delivery. $ “Brazil,” continued the “is. pre-’ bali to into a conflict tie without fear of embarrassed by nations. She has perfected an alliance with Peraguay and Chile, which, if not in ‘Copper unchanged. expromed that acrigus' trouble between Brasil and the Argentine Republic is not unlikely to ‘occur. ; State | Washington Light | ‘ican Security and Trast 54,1905, | c, -witbxespay’ NAMEN) a, ben. xiy| AT THE WHITE HOUSE President: Cleveland Has Another Very Busy Day.

They all saw the President and gained oppor- tanity to,fulfill their several missions, whether | business, Senator Mills secured the first interview, and | being the early bird had ample opportunity to | catch his worm before any others came, IN BEHALF OF JUDGE GOODE. Virginians, however, are early risers and Pretty soon came Senator Hunton and Repre- sentatives Wise and Meredith, who presented the name of Mr. John Goode for appointment as solicitor general. They said many nice things about Judge Goode, which, however, Was no news to the President, who knows Mr. Goode of old. Senator Gordon of Georgia, with his courtly bearing, occupied the attention of the President long enough to pr sent some constituents, giv- ing way to Senator Peffer. Representative Breckinridge of Kentucky, called to present Senator Lindsay, Secretary Carlisle's successor in the upper house. CONGRATULATIONS OF THE POPE. ‘The Rev. Dr. O'Gorman, assistant rector of the Catnolic University, came to see Private Secretary Thurber upon an important mission He bore a letter to the President from Mon- signor Satolli, the papal legate to the United States, conveying to the President the con- gratulations of the pope. The letter was not tude public, but was simply of a congratulatory nature. Dr, O'Gorman did not ak to see the President, But contented himself with deliver- ing the letter to Mr. Thurber. ILLINOISANS WANT OFFICE. Senator Palmer and Representatives Dur- borow and Newberry called and with them were three men who are willing to serve their coun- try for a consideration. Delos P. Phelps, irman of the Illinois central democratic committee, wants a consul generalship. Gen. Smith of Chicago, backed by the Iroquois Club, is running against Frank Lawler for the post mastership, and ex-Congressman Scott Wike wants to be first controler of the currency. Capt. Ousley of Illinois, Geo. M. Pullman's nephew, wonld like to be consul at Glasgow. | INDIANIANS ARE APPLICANTS, Representatives Holman and Martin of In- diana saw the President. Indiana has a big delegation of patriots awaiting the John P. Frenzel, an Indianapolis bank president, ix urged for appointment as assistant secretary of the treasury and ixsaid to have an excellent chanee. Col. Jordan wants to be first auditor of the treasury. Eb. Henderson of Martinsville wants to be ussistant commissioner of internal revenue. Editor Wadsworth of the La Porte Argus is said to have the backing of the whole Indiana delegation for public printe: “object.” sid the President when Con gressman “Buck” Kilgore’s card was handed to him. The objection was withdrawn, however, and the tall Texan got his audience. "They say that Mr. Kilgore has an excellent chance for appointment as minister to Mexico. A PROTESTING DELEGATION. A break in the monotony of the proceedings occurred when a delegation arrived, not to seck office, but to protest agaist an appoint- ment. They were E. W. Kraft of Philadelphia ‘Typographical Union, John T. Burke of “Big "Union, New York, and W. E. Shields of e Washington, Union. ‘They were presented by Representative Amos J. Cummings and lodged a protest against the appointment of C. W. Edwards of Wilmington, Del.. as public rinter. They stated their objection to be Pesedon thegronnd that Mr. Edwards fe op- posed to labor unions, was at one time a “ra printer and is generally objectionable to or- ganized labor. WHAT KENTUCKIANS WANT. Kentucky was well represented in the presi- dential audience chamber, and the wishes of her sons were expressed to the President with Jacksonian simplicity by the Congressmen. Senator Lindsay introduced C. 'T. Allen of Ken- tucky, who wants to be an assistant postmas- ter general. W. C. Watts would be content consulship. while C.K. Whe higher and asks for a foreign mission.

Sayres of Texas and Taylor, Bretz, and Brookehire of Indiana, Vice Present Stevenson culled for a moment and after he left the President went down to the east room to hold a public reception, NEW SENATORS CALL. The new Senators are rapidly getting their gait and show no indications of being left in the sprinting match for office. Among the callers today were Senators Martin of Kansas, White of California and Roach of North Dakota. DON'T WANT AN OFFICE. Realizing this, as every one does, the crowd in the lobby looked in wonder this morning upon one ex-Congressman who announced to a group of friends that he did not want anoffice. It was ex-Representative Castle of Minnesota, who Mr. . Switzler, formerly chief of the bureau of statistics, and “Bishop” Oberly, who was a civil service commissioner under Mr. while, Mr, Oberly declared that he was not after an office. Senator Wade Hampton and ex-Congressman Dibble of South Carolina called. The largest South Carolina appointment is the collectorship of the Charleston custom house, which will probably go to Col. Geo. D. Bryan, ex-mayor of Charleston. MR. LUTTRELL CALLS, Mr. T. J. Luttrell of this city spent a few moments with Private Secretary Thurber. When he came out be declared himself not gaily of seeking office, but could not deny that would accept one if tendered him. SECRETARY GRESHAM CALLS. Secretary Gresham called upon the President about 1:30 o’'cloek and remained in conference with him for some time. Lt is said that Gen.

She is about the medium height, hasa slight girlish figure and a very pleasing and intelligent face. She is just about as unlike her distinguished aunt, ex-Queen Liliuokalani, as it is possible for two persons to be.
