BRISK FIRING AT RIO; Cannonade Between the Insurgents and the Federal Forts. ps eck SUCCESS OF THE FRENCH IN DAHOMEY Comment of London Papers on the Wilson Bill's Passage. -_- GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS at Se LONDON, Feb. 2.—A dispatch sent from Buenos Ayres last night has been received in this city saying that advices have been received from Rio Janeiro that the insur- gents have obtained a renewal of their sup- plies. A brisk cannonade has occurred be- tween the insurgent squadron and the go’ nment forts. The insurgent warships Almirante, Tamandare and Aquidaban were slightly damaged. Hitherto the in- surgents have not had a sufficient supply | of rifles to carry on land operations, hut! | now, having received a fresh supply of arms, preparations are being made to dis- embark part of the insurgent forces. The dispatch adds that the government wires have been cut. Report of Nictheroy’s Capture Repeat- | | LISBON, Feb. 2.—A dispatch received j here last night from Buenos Ayres reiter- | ates the statement in yesterday’s dispatches | that Nictheroy, the town across the bay | from Rio Janeiro, had surrenderel to the insurgents. It adds that the insurgents now occupy a position from whicn they command Santa Cruz, the important fort); at the entrance to the Bay of Rio Janeiro. | The dispatch further says that the insur- gents are blockading Bahia, the capital of the state of that name. It is stated in Buenos Ayres that Admiral Da » the commander of the insurgent forces at Rio Janeiro, has eight torpedo boats steaming about the bay. An Official Communication. NEW YORK, Feb. 2.—An official commu- nication from the Brazilian government at Rio, dated February 1, to the Herald, reads as follows: Admiral Benham's action toward the re- volters is highly gratifying to all loyalBrazil- jans, and to the established government, as | showing which side has the sympathy of the United States. President Peixoto has prolonged the state of siege in Rio until the end of this month, in the confident hope that the revolt will; have ended before the expiration of that period. The Herald’s Rio cable says: There is |apparently a general agreement between | | the foreign naval commanders in the harbor to prevent Admiral Saldanaha Da Gama |from in any way interfering with foreign commerce and he has been informed of their Position. The operations of the rebels in the last | twe days have amounted to little. An at- |tack on the war arsenal by night with launches was spiritless and easiy ¢-poweu It is learned that the British government , has sent orders to its squadron here to) protect to a similar extent all property afloat under the British flag. Admiral Benham Criticised. LONDON, Feb. 2.—The Pall Mall Gazette, commenting upon affairs in Bragzil, say: “Brazil is no more under Cleveland’s suze- |rainty than the United States is under our own. Admiral Benham, quite rightly, has met with the steady opposition of all the other powers. The Monroe doctrine is not yet codified with the law of nations.” THE WILSON BILL ABROAD. Comment of London Papers on Panange. LONDON, Feb. 2.—The Daily News com- menting upon the passage of the Wilson tariff bill’ in the American House of Repre- Sentatives says: “it fulfills President Cleve- land’s pledge to the nation and comes only Just in time to restore the wanting indus- | trial property in the United States. It Is hardly a free trade measure, but it re- moves some monstrous burdens from the | national industry which the protection oli- | garchy imposed upon the country. The bill | deals tenderly with many interests which are still able to establish a claim to be cod- | died for the national godd. It is not likely that the Seaate will modify the bill much. The country wants it. The widespread mis- ery has pleaded against the old iniquity more stronsly than words are able to do.” The Chronicle commenting on the passage | of the bill suys that the measure is so com- promising that advanced men have little enthusiasm over it, but, ft adds, even a truncated measure heralds the breakdown of protection. More important, it says, is the | tion of the income tax as a part of the | measure, Tne Senate will reject this’ fea- | ture of the Hill and will pass the tariff bil} | in a modified form.

Mitchell's Father-in-Law Charged With Assaulting a Car Conductor. NEW YORK, Feb. 2.—Charlie Mitchell and his father-in-law, “Pony” Moore, were in the Jefferson Market court today,“Pony” having been arrested on a charge of as- saulting Jacob Cohen, a Broadway cable ear ccnductor, last night. The pugilistic party came early and went into the judge’s private room. When Jus- tice Taintor arrived he promptly ordered them out and they took seats on the front row of benches in the court room.

Who Want to Stop It. THE WEDNESDAY NIGHT CONTEST A Decided Opposition to Exhibi- tions of That Character. IS SAID ABOUT IT Pete Se The account given in The Star of the so- cailed sparring exhibition at the Columbia Athletic Clubhouse Wednesday night Las caused considerable talk among members of the club and called out a published state- ment from the president of the club, Mr. Charles E. Coon, who speaks of The Star’s account as “a fake story,” and a “malic- ious invention.” According to Mr. Coon, the slugging contests were“pronounced very tame, as compared with the usual nwre warmly contested amateur bouts our city has been accustomed to.” Other members of the club, when spoken to by Star report- ers, agreed with Mr. Coon to the extent of saying the Wednesday night exhibition was tame compared with some that have pre- ceded it in the same clubhouse. There is evidently a feeling among many members of the club against a continuance of exhibitions like that of Wednesday night, and which can hardly be classed under the head of “healthy and honest athletics.” This feeling is so pronounced that prominent members declared today that there never would be another such exhibition given there. The Columbia Athletic Club numbers many good citizens, who have been inter- ested in athletics. For a long time sparring exhibitions were given by members of the club which could not be criticised any element of brutality in the this the club drifted by degrees into secur- ing professionals and -providing regular “knock out” fights for the delectation of its members and those of the public who paid the admission price. This has come about WHAT so gradually that it seems members of the} club have hardly realized it themselves, and the account of Wednesday’s fights printed in The Star and which The Star would will- ingly retract for the credit of the city and of the club, if it could truthfully do so, came to them as a shock. The result, it is said, will be to put a check on such exhibitions at the club. The Columbia Club always has been looked up to by other athletic clubs in the city as the organization to take the lead in movements intended to promote athletics, and its mem- bers, as a rule, realize the responsibility their position as leaders imposes upon them. So one result of the publicity given to the character of these contests will prob- ably be a change of policy and a condemna. tion of exhibitions of a character that con- not be classed as “honest and healthy” athletics. When SuNivan Was Objectionable. The discussion over Wednesday night's contests has recalled the controversy that took place in the club, scon after its new building was completed, over a proposition to have John L. Sullivan give an exhibition in the gymnasium. A special meeting of the club was called and many warm speech- es were made. The meeting was a pro- tracted one, and when at length the ques- tion was put to a vote, there was an over- whelming majority aginst the proposicion. The club at that time, or a majority of the club, did not want any prize fighters about. There seems to have been a change of sen- timent since then. In the exhibitions Wed- nesday night, as in contests that have pre- ceded it, men recognized as professional Pugilists took part and fougnt for the money offered. It may be that the opponents of such ex- hibtions may, unfortunately, find them- selves in the minority 'n the club, but it was learned today that an effort will at once be made to prevent hereafter such affairs as occurred at the club Wednesday evening, and which have excited the dis- gust not only of the community at larze, but also, it is claimed, of a majority of the members of the club. ‘ What President Coon Has Said, It is understood that such contests as took place at the club night before last have from the very first been deplored by no small number of the members of the or- ganization as detrimental to the dest in- terests of the club, and it is also stated that no less a personage than the president of the club, Mr. Coon, considered the sub- ject of such importance as to merit more than a passing reference in his annual re- port, made to the club by him last month. In his report, so it is stated, President Coon, after calling attention to the financial benefits resulting to the ciub through the giving of such pugilistic contests, stated, in substance, that it would be well for the club to consider whether tne disadvantages aris- ing from the giving by the club of sparring contests would not more than offset all the temporary financial benefits which might | accrue to the club. Since the making of this report, it is said, the suggestion made by President Coon has been given considera- tion by not a few of the members of the club, with the result, it is explained, that quite a decided opposition to future exhibi- | tions of the kind has been manifested; al- though, it is said, the opposition has not yet officially communicated {ts sentiments to the club management. It is understood, however, that the exhibition of Wednesday evening, and the publicity given it through The Star, have intensified the opposition to the matter, and the opponents of such af- > fairs, it is believed, are now sufficient): strong, numerically, to effect their purpose.
