A Rio Janeiro dispatch says: Many con- tradictory rumors have been in circulation in regard to the happenings recently at Bahia. The fact that the government cut off telegraphic and cable communication with that point gave rise to the statements that the government fleet at Bahia had re- volted and that the insurgents’ war ves- sels Aquidaban and Republica were off that port with the intention of cngaging the government fleet. These rumors are set at rest by the United States consul Bahia, Mr. R. H. McDaniel, who telegraphs here that all is quiet at Bahia and that | President Peixoto’s fleet is still in the har- | bor of Bahia. The rebel warship Tamandare is prepar- ing to put to sea on some unknown mission. | She will run the gauntlet of the forts to- | night, and, as the latter are said to be | ready to give her a warm reception, a dis | play of fireworks is looked for this even- | ing or early tomorrow. Nothing seems to be known here concern- ing the whereabouts of dynamite cruiser Rear Admiral Benham has changed his flag from the San Francisco to the New York, and the former United States crutser has gone outside the harbor in order to | enable her crew to bet the benefit of the | sea_ breezes. The approaching election of March 1 | Seems to attract but little attention here, | and the general opinion seems to be that the government candidates will win where- | ever the government rules supreme. It now appears that thirty men and two the insurzents’ ly the Mercurie, Thursday last. m Langange. Star: 1 have read with much interest the transport Venus, former which was destroyed on cn "s issue and their literature. The writer shows a much more intimate knowledge of his sub- ject than is usual in articles upon this and Kindred topics, and while very compii- mentary in speaking of my work and ex- | ceptionally exact in his quotations of tiles | and their transiations therefrom, he makes one statement which I must correct. He} says: the “in Mr. Siouan Pilung’s sibliograpny of Languages imere appear |eredited to Dr. riggs rorty-tnree sepavate | Works in the Daku.an (Si0uan) language. | |* * * ‘There should pe auded to air. rul- ing’s bibuograpny of Dr. Kiggs’ works in the Dakota over books, used in the indian schools.” ‘Tne bibliography lished in Iasi, nearly seven years ago. Whether the writer in ‘the Star means that it omits the titles of fifty school books by Dr. Riggs alone or by al! the writers in the Siouan tongues, whether he publication ot my work, 1 do not know. any case the statement is incorrect. in of the I consider that on the Siouan the most complete, and this fur evident reasons. of the volume in scarcely hope to with any other of the Unguistic groups as he has been with the siouan. Many of those who have fashioned the literature of ! the language are still living; with a number | éf them he has been in daily contact for years, and with nearly all of those sitil living he has been in correspondence during the past eight years.” With Dr. Riggs himself, the most distinguished of te Dakota missionaries, I had close relations, visiting and being visited by him a number of times, and his literary matetial was always accessible to me. With his sons, his successors in missionary work, I have had equally pleasant relations. ‘The literature of these people is for the most part comparatively modern, the first | text in any dialect of their languages hav- ing appeared in 1833—a prayer book in the Winnebago dialect. Add to these facts the further one that I have probably the largest collection in existence of books in the various Siouan languages, and I am safe, I think, in venturing to question the correctness of The Star writer’s state- ment. Instead of fifty volumes there could not be added three titles to those given by me under Riggs’ name; instead of fifty volumes, not half that number of titles! of works referred to, author, could be added, list include those published before, during and since the publication of the Biblic- graphy of the Siouan Languages. To Rev. J. Owen Dorsey should be given the credit of the quaint literal transla- tions of the Siouan titles in the biblio- graphy mentioned. It may interest your readers to know that probably the first book published within what was then the limits of the two states of Dakota is a “Dictionary of the Sioux Language,” a little pamphlet of seventeen leaves, prepared by Lieuts. Hyde and Starring, at Fort Laramie in 1866, having been set up and printed on a hand press by the soldiers garrisoned there. But two copies of this have come to my notice, one of which I was fortunate enough to secure. es JAMES C. PILLING. nae Claims Along the Canal. Mr. W. C. Devecman of Cumberland was whosoever their before the ways and means committee of the Maryland house yesterday to urge the legislature to embody in Mr. Lamar's bill to pay certain claims of laborers on the Chesapeake and Ohio canal a provision to pay the judgment claims of a number of the original construction contractors.

MRS. CLEVELAND ON THE PLATFORM The Revivalist’s Earnest Injunction to Stand Up for Jesus. THE SONG SERVICE. Looking down from the platform where Moody speaks daily to changing thousands, the upturned faces last night seemed like @ great army. Hundreds had been turned away from the doors before 7 o'clock, with none of the 7,000 seats unfilled. The music Was a repetition of preceding nights, with @ new element of interest in the soprano voice of Miss Dorothy Byrde Rogers, and the sermon shifted through the changes of eloquence, anecdote and practical appeal which alternate in all of Mr. Moody's talks. Mrs. Clev Atte: There was a distinguished gathering of people on the platform at the meeting last evening. At a late hour a messenger ar- rived from the White House with the in- formation that Mrs. Cleveland would at- tend, and Mr. C. N. Richards, chairman of the executive committee, at once made ar- rangements for her reception and ~omfort. With Mrs. Cleveland were Mrs. Gresham, Mrs. Bissell and Mrs. Carlisle. They were met at the K street entrance by Rev. Dr. McKim of the Church of the Epiphany, and escorted to seats in the center of the plat- form. At the conclusion of Mr. Moody's talk on the need of confegsing Christ he asked that all those who were not ashamed to acknowledge Him should stand up. Mrs. Cleveland and the others of her party were among those who rose up, and they also remained for the inquiry service which fol- lowed. Mrs. Cleveland and the ladies with her were greatly interested in the services and promised to again attend. These serv- ices, it may be officially stated, will close Wednesday of next week—one week from toright. The Song Service. The first selection of the evening was a solo by Miss Rogers, with organ accom- paniment, by Prof. Foster, the leader of the chorus. “Not Half Has Ever Been Told,” was the title of the song, which was given in rich clear tones, filling the full acreage of the’ hall. There was a brief, fervent prayer by Mr. Moody, succeeded by a rustle |of expectation as Mr. Sankey seated him- self at the organ. The song which he had chosen was a simple Scotch melody, be- ginning, “I Am Far Frae My Hame and |I'm Weary Afterwhiles,” with a deep cur- rert of pathos through It. ‘There was a chorus “So Round the Cross We Sing,” on the refrain of which the bassos rose with magnificent volume, and Rev. J. J. Muir made an ernest prayer. That song of Sankey’s, ‘The Ninety and Nine,” which has not lost its power in the years of his work was giv beginning “What though the way is rough and steep, I go to the desert to find my sheep,” and swelling into the final triumphant shout, “Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His sheep.” - The next prayer was by Rev. Dr. H. J. Smith, and after the announcements by Mr. Moody, Rev. Dr. R. McKim of Epiphany Church kneeled on the platform praying. The scriptural passage which Mr. Moody presented was from Romans, begin- ning: “If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe with thy heart, thou shalt be saved.” How to Be Saved. “No passage of the Bible sets out the truth plainer than this,” began Mr. Moody, in his direct way. “Confess with thy mouth, velieve with thy heart, and be not the only one I ever heard of that people are ashamed of.” In India he had seen the Mohammedan, whenever the hour of prayer overtook him, sink to his knees. Wherever the Chinaman was found he ran up his colors, proud in California of being a follower of Confu- cius. Once when he rode to Salt Lake with a Mormon the man tried to convert him. Believ in every “ism” were proud of their th: “Yet, which of them has done for man what Christianity has?” he asked, with a pause for the truth to sink home: “If there a back door to- heaven some of these people could come in at without being seen, what a rush there! would be. If they could get to the Mount of Transfiguration without going “by Cal- "a all would be there. When did Peter When he denied his Lord.” A Local Hit. There seemed to be something which hit the mark when Mr. Moody told people how they came to Washington into government positions, failed to acknowledge ihat they were members of the church, rotated from one church to another, and finally let slip their Christianity. Then the evangelist touched upon the people who go to church | no signs of it on| on Sunday and show day. What kind of a soldier would he be who was ashamed to put on the uniform of his army?" he asked, “How would Washing- | ,2¢ ton be guarded if the policemen felt that way?” He regretted that some of his remarks | touching churches had been misconstrued. Far trom his purpose was it to belittle the good work of the churches. He was in himself, and did not intend to get out. It had been too hard for him to get in. What ! he did want to enforce was the truth that not the church could save, but only Jesus Christ, and He alone. There were stories drawn from the ex- of a young man who long deferred his ac- knowledgment of Christianity because ne feared to have his room-mate see him read- ing the Bible. Finally it developed that both of them had been attending the meet- ing at the Hippodrome, both felt the power of Christtanity, but each feared the other. ‘Own Up and Don't Dodge. “There. are five hundred of them in this house,” he said. “Own up now. Don't dodge it. I go down there, talk to a man, wife sitting beside him, blushes up to his hair, afraid to have her hear it. Talks tariff all day, free trade, horse racing, but when you beg him to talk religion wants to sneak out. Oh, yes, plenty of these; young men, too. Not ashamed to stay out all night gambling, not ashamed to come home drunk, but afraid to have his infidel roeom-mate find him reading the Bible. That infidel room-mate wasn't afraid to swear before him. Oh, no. “When Christ was doing His work around Carmel there were plenty of croakers there. Said the work wouldn't last, you know; wasn’t the work of God.” de said: “It’s not the most filppant and fluent witness that makes the best im- pression on the jury; it’s the one that tells the truth.” It was a terrible thing in the old days to be cast from the synagogue, and there was no wonder that men hesitated to follow Christ. “It's different nowadays. Methodists cast you out, Presbyterians toke you up. Presbyterians cast you out, Con- Bregationalists take you up. Congregation- alists cast you out, Baptists read: How Many Know They Are Saved. After telling of the young man whose tes- timony was to the point, “This I know, that whereas once I was blind, now I can he asked: ‘How many of you are there here who know whether you are saved? You? Are you? You?” As he put these questions, Mr. Moody leaned far over the rail, gazing into the thousands of faces, which met his gaze with impressive silence. Another reminiscent story followed of how gamblers in Chicago had, by way of joke, once sent him an invitation to the opening of their place, how he had gone to them, told them he would be there, and might have something to say. “But you won't preach?” they asked. “I can’t tell.” ‘hen we don’t want you.” “But I intend to come.” “We'll put a policeman at the door to keep you out.” “Ah, but you can’t, with this invitation in my hand. At last he offered to compromise by pray- ing with them there. “They knelt down,” he said, “‘one at each side, and I prayed God to smash their busi- ness and save their souls.” There was a strikingly eloquent, vivid picture, sketched in a few sharp word thrusts, of that terrible hour of that dark night after Judas had sold his Master for thirty pieces of silver, when Joseph stood up steadfastly for Him. And when Christ was led up to Calvary to be crucified, too tender of heart to witness the agony,Joseph had sent @ trusty servant to report to him. amed.

That seemed to Moody one of the noblest stories recorded in history. A Closing Appeal. There was a closing appeal to young men to acknowledge the truth. Then, like the movement of a regiment, the people rose to sing with a martial swing. “Stand Up, Stand Up For Jesus, Ye Sol- diers of the Cross.” In silent prayer the heads were bowed for a moment, until the voice of the venerable Justice Strong, once “9 Hoel, ——— a the silence lor hearts to bro it to recog- nize the truth. _ While the hymn, “I Am Coming to the Cross,” was sung, a few drifted from the hall, but most of the audience remained for the service of song and prayer. Yesterday Afternoon’s Meeting. At the afternoon meeting conducted by Mr. Moody and Mr. Sankey at Convention Hall yesterday there was a crowd of sev- eral thousand people present, the majority of whom were women. There were not very many members of the choir on hand, so that congregational singing was more gen- eral than usual. There were earnest pray- ers by Dr. Bartlett, Dr. Todd, Dr. Greene and Dr. Hamlin. Mr. Sankey sang a num- ber of hymns in his now familiar in one hymn, “Lead Me, Savioi assisted by Miss Carrie Ayer. One of the most touching hymns that was sung was written by a Washington minister, Rev. Dr. Cornelius, The hymn was written one day after the delivery of a sermon and was originally printed in a western magazine. The first verse is as follow “Thou, my everlasting portion, More than friend or life to m All along my pilgrim journe: Savior, let me walk with Thee. Mr. Moody announced that there would be meetings every afternoon and evening ex- cept Saturday, and added a statement that hereafter there would be a meeting each afternoon at 1:30 o'clock at the Asse nbly Church, corner of Sth and I streets, where a number of ministers and himself would be in attendance to render assistance to all who were in trouble or in doubt about com- ing to Jesus. Mr. Moody’s talk was a very practical discourse on the methods of securing 2eal happiness in life. To a large extent, he said, life is a sort of echo and we usually get back from the world about what we give to it. If a husband is cross to his wife, the chances are she will be cross in return, and both would be to blame. “If you think you have mean neighbors.” he said, “just look in a looking glass and rou will'see the meanest of them all.” People should get down to their own troubles and if they did not know how to overcome these, he would refer them to the fourth chapter of St. John, which he quoted at some length. There were two things needed to win a victomy. One was already possessed in Christ's atonement for sinners, but the other must come from regeneration, which was something the spirit of the Holy Ghost must do in them. Sn NOT COMPELLED TO ANSWER. A Ri ing Which Practically Renders the Interstate Law Useless. Judge Grosscup of the United States court at Chicago, on Monday, discharged the rule on the railroad officials compelling them to answer questions in the federal grand jury investigations of the workings of the inter- state commerce law. The officials have refused to answer ques- tions regarding their rate-cutting, and by this ruling of the judge the interstate law is, to a large extent, apparently, rendered practically valueless. In his decision Judge Grosscup said: “Every man's life is, so far as society is interested, a series of personal acts. Each act not impingeing unlawfully upon the rights of others or falling within the defini- tions of the criminal statutes is a personal right of the individual. “The theory of our criminal proceeding, like that of Grea‘ Britain,is accusatory and not inquisitorial. No person can be sub- jected to the penalties of the law unless every fact essential to the identification of the act charged with the crime is apparent from sources other than himself, or his own voluntary disclosures. The accused caa stand, as against the menace of the law's penalties, upon the sanctity of his own per- sonal knowiedse, and the constitutional guarantee puts a seal upon that knowledge that no legislative or judicial hand can | break. “If the fifth amendment is intended to immunity tion of crime, irrespective of the nature of such consequences, no legislative act can cut down or diminish such immunity.” The court upheld Generai Freight Agent James of the Lake Shore road, and Gordon McLeod, agent of the Merchants’ Dispaten | Freight Line, in refusing to answer Gues- | tions put to them by the grand jury. The questions were intended to draw out infor- mation as to illegal cuts in rates, and both cfficials refused to answer, on the ground that the fifth amendment to the Constitu- tion of the United States gives every man the right to refuse to make disclosures i which will criminate himself. On February 11, 1893, Congress amended the interstate act with the iniention of remedying the defect pointed out in the law in the Supreme Court decision in the Counselman case. District Attorney Milchrist held that the amended law was as broad as the consti- tutional amendment in that it fully exempt- ed witnesses from prosecution for anything they might disclose, and asked for a rule to | commit the witnesses to jail for contempt if they did not testify. Judge Grosscup holds that Consress éid and cannot pass an act exempting anybody from the operation of the consti- tutional amendments, and discharged the rule compelling McLeod and James to tes- ify District Attorney Milchrist said: “I had no idea that the court would decide against us. We now have no way to compel wit- nesses to furnish information.” Attorney Safford, who represents the in- terstate commission, acknowledged that the decision cripples the commission in so far “The cases here,” he sald, “will be dropped, but what the commission will do I cannot sa; John N. Jewett, who argued the cases for the railroad, said: “The decision is an able, just and fearless one. It did not surprise me.” LOYAL TO HIS CHIEF. At a recent dinner given by Dr. H. C. White of the Georgia State University to Mr. Smith, Secretary of the Interior, the latter responded to a toast, in the course of which he paid a high tribute to President Cleveland. He said the President had been called callous &nd stubborn, but that this is not so. “The President,” said Secretary Smith, “is a man whom to fully appreciate one must know intimately. It is known that he is a man slow to form opinions. He takes a question, weighs it well, and hears all sides, and one may, at first, think he is not making any impression on him. He hears all you have to say and thinks over it, considers all things, and when he has exhausted all points of a question and be- lieves he has reached truth, then he forms his own opinions, decides what he thinks is the right thing to do. Then he is un- moveable, is firmness itself, and you migh as well,” continued the Secretary, “try to move a mountain of stone in Dekalb coun- ty_as to change this man’s convictions. “I admire his firmness,” said Secretary Smith; “I admire his courage; I admire his truthfulness. I would say to you now that I am more of a Cleveland man today than I was last November one year ago, when I cast my vote for Grover Cleveland. There are many who say he should do this, that and the other; while he should not do things he does. I tell many of these people they know not what they say, and these very people, at the close of the next three years, will realize their error, for then results will show him to be our friend still, and our democratic President.” iis sates taraety Fight on the Apti-Option a.

WILL CALL IT PEFFERVILLE Proposed New Site for the Kansas Capital. The Removal Question Again Being Agitated—The Hideous Nightmare of the Topeka People. Correspondence of The Evening Star. TOPEKA, Kan., Feb. 20, 1894. ‘The capital removal question has always been a hideous nightmare that has disturbed the dreams of Topeka people and the citi- zens of eastern Kansas at every session of the state legislature. The schemes for pull- ing down the present state capitol building and removing it to some more central point have been hatched at nearly every ression since the state was admitted to the Union. In the early days this was a subject of sreat contention, and since the central an@ western sections of Kansas have been con- verted from the great American desert into the wonderful agricultural district that it is the demand for the relocation of the capital has come up at every session of the legislature, Every proposition favoring the removal of the seat of government from Topeka has had wide discussion, and was invariably accompanied by the agitation in keeping with the Kansas spirit of doing things, but each one has run its course and finally Passed out of the minds of the people, hav- ing accomplished nothing. For this reason the more recent capital removal schemes have attracted little attention. For the past ten years there has not been a twelve-months without some scheme be- ing set on foot for the removal of the cap- ital or the division of the state. The last of these schemes is the one which recently originated in western Kansas, Ellis county being the scene of operation. This time it is a political movement, the populists hav- ing undertaken to start a town with the avowed object of making it the capital of the state. The town is to be christened Pefferville, in honor of the first populist United States Senator. A section of land is said to have been secured, in the center of which commodious capitol grounds have been reserved. The remainier of the sec- tion is to be laid out into 25-foot town lots, which are to be sold, the proceeds to be used in the erection of a stave house which is to be superior to the uncompleted struc- ture in Topeka. AS suggested by a western Kansas paper, it is the plan to make the removal without the cost of a dollar to the taxpayers of the State, so that when the time for voting comes no one will refuse to vote for Peffer- ville because it will increase his taxes. It is altogether probable that Pefferville will not materialize, for town lots in the arid county of Ellis will not ag poms, even with the remote prospect of the state capital being located there. The Kanopolis Scheme. Pefferville appears to have been modeled after Kanopolis, in Ellsworth county. Kanopolis, which was located in almost the exact geographical center of the state for the purpose of making it the capital of Kansas, was, during its meteoric career, one of the best advertised towns in the west. Its natural advantages were heralded from one end of the land to the other. It was the enterprise of a number of prom- inent men in Springfield, Ohio, who, with their money and influence, gave it a brie” boom, such as no other town in ghe state ever enjoyed. In 1884 such notices as the following, from the Ohio State Journal, were seen in papers in every state in the Union: “What is Kanopolis? This is a question which forty years ago might have been asked of Chicago. The answer in reference to the latter might have been: It is ghe new city the southern extremity of Lake Michigan, which, in forty years more, will contain a hal? million inhabitants and be the metropolis of the great northwest. The answer in regard to Kanopolis may reason- ably be: It is the new city founded in the very heart of Kansas, and which in a few years will surpass ail other cities in that mighty commonwealth, and in the year 1900 will contain fifty thousand souls. (The Journal proved a bad prophet, for in 18% Rubepeme does not contain two hundred souls). “Right in the geographical center of Kan- | Sas, and as well in the geographical center | of the United States, is the site of the town. The new city is not dependent on the strug- sling energies of its first inhabitants. It has to back it the resources of an organ- ized company with a capital of $500,000, a company composed of men who have all acquired fame or fortune in the walks of life.” This is a modest sample of the reading notices that flooded the country telling about the future metropolis and capital of Kansas. The great display “ads” which could invariably be found at the “top of column and next to reading matter,” in nearly all the newspapers of the country, ere thing of beauty. For each of these “ads” a cut of the state of Kansas, show- ing the location of Kanopolis, with its score of projected railroad lines, representing the new Eldorado as the hub, and its railway | lines as the spokes to the great wheel, was supplied, raking a picture as beautiful as it_was deceiving. vhile these flaming advertisements were appearing in many of the eastern papers, the press of eastern Kansas never lost an opportunity to denounce the Kanopolis com- pany as a humbug and swindle. But the town was advertised nevertheless,and many people were attracted to it who invested in town lots, erected buildings and engaged in business. A population of nearly 5,000 peo- ple was gathered there in a short time and invested their all in the “4 cen- ter of the state, nation and world.” It was in ISS7 that a syndicate was or- ganized to secure the removal of the capital from Topeka to McPherson. Senator H. B. Kelly was the executive head of the move- | ment. No sooner had it been launched than a dozen other central Kansas towns became capital candidates, and soon Abilene, Salina, Minneapolis, Ellsworth and Kanopolis were fighting McPherson. Of course, with the central part of the state divided, the re- moval scheme was bound to fail, and it never even came to a vote in the legis- lature. The Latest Project. When the stormy session of the legislature Was in progress last winter the populists became highly incensed at the people of To- peka because of the alacrity with which they enlisted as deputy sheriffs to resist ewe miliia and assist the republicans in maintaining their position. They —— that Topeka needed punishment, so the lowing resolution was introduced in the Senate and adopted by a strict party vote: “Whereas, The people of Shawnee county are organizing under the authority of the | sheriff of said county for the purpose of de- | fying and overth>owing the authority of the tate; be it “Resolved, by the senate of the state of Kansas, that a committee of five senators be appointed to consider the advisability of removing the state capital, with instructions to report within ten day: A week later the committee submitted fts report. It had learned that to remove the capital the constitution would have to be changed, so they offered ¢ resolution sub- mitting to a vote of the nenple a proposition authorizing the next legislature to choose @ location for the capital more central than Tcpeka. The resolution wee adopted, but the house failed to act upon it the people will not have an opportunity of voting on the question of capital removal this year. Serator Ieedy of Coffey county was the originator of this capital removal scheme, and it was discovered that Kanopolis was the point to which they expected to remove the capital. Senator Helm of Ellsworth coun- ty, who lives three miles from the Kanopolis town site, was an active supporter of the measure, and to persons who were In the deal he exhibited letters from Gen. Keifer and other members of the Kanapolis com- pany pledging $1,000,000 for the capital at that place. But the plan failed, and olis is today a whistling station on the Union Pacitic railroad. —_— Joe Goddard Wa: to Fight Again. A cable dispatch from Sidney, N. 8.
