HE OMAHA DAILY BEE ITEENTH A" REVOLUTION IN BRAZIL, The Army Takes Possossion of the Government. A REPUBLIC IS DEMANDED. The Mintstry Has Resigned—Very Little Known as Yet—Dom Pedro Minister at Warhington Thinks It 1s Exaggerated. Tired of Monarvohv, Nrw York, Nov, 15.—A private cablegram secewed this evening dated at Rio Janeiro, . ! ‘A revolution has broken out here. The Brazilian army is in control. The ministry has resigned.” ‘T'lhe revolution is for the purpose of form- ing @ republic. In the Same Vein, LoxpoN, Nov. 15,—Dispatches from Rio Janeiro concerning the revolutionary out- brenk assert that the movement is in favor of a ropublican form of government, which has recently been strongly fomented, and is the sole ewuse of the uprising. Up to the present hoar there is little in- formation of a tangible character. A Conservat v Denial. WasniNarox, Nov. 15.—The Brazilian min- ister said this evening that he had received no information from his government in re- gard to the reported rovolution in Brazl, but had heard from a third partv intelli- gence of the sume purport as that contained in the cable message to New York, The minister said that since neleft Brazil in July he bad heard considerable about the great strongth of tho republican party in Broail, bt in bis opinicn its strength was overrated in this country, He did not think it at all probable that whe situation had taken the turn indicated by the cablegram. There might have been a ministerial trouble which Tias given rise 1o the report of a revolution. ‘The correspondent cuiled on the minister again at midniznt with the report that the Brazilian minister of marioe had been killed in the revolt. The minister refused to be- liove it. Ho said the republican party, to which the revolt 18 ascribed, could not have rown 80 largo as to bring about arevolution, t the last election mnot a single member of that party was chosen on the first ballot, and on the second only two or three were elected from a single province, and that the election was entirely free and open. A revolution, ne said, could mnot have occurred in 80 free a country us Brazil without some premonitions. There is notning in the latest pupers received which gives any intimation of what is reported to have occurred and there 18 no reason why the revolution should have taken vlace. Brozil is a free country and thore is aperfect guarantee of the rights of everybody in their persons aud property. A revoiution against a government us free as Brazil seems 80 absurdthat the minister can~ not believe it Baron La de Rio, the minister reported killed, is well known in the United States. His carecr as u naval officer began in the United States navy thirty years ago, he hav- fng been sent hero for that purposs by the Brazilian government. Coff '+ Men Excited, New York, Nov. 15.—Messrs. Hard & Rand have received the following from Rio Janeiro: YA revolution has broken out here. The Brazilian acmies are in control. The minis- try has resigned. One minister has been shot. Itisanattempt to establish a republic.” Dispatehes were also received by Arbuckle Bros. and Joseph J. O'Donohoe & Sons. Thess dispatches were received just afterthe coffee exchunges closed for the day. ‘'he reports came like a clap of thunder to the coffee dealers throughout the city, who were made acquainted with them to-nightand are likely to cause serious trouble on ex- change if contirmed. ' While the deulers generally spoke ina hopeful strain, they exhibited signs of un- eusine William H. Crossman, of Cross- man Bros., who had received a dispateh, but had correspondence from Brazil of a very recent date, which gave no hint of even an anticipation of trouble in that country, said: “Ir the report 1s true,’ said that gentle- man, “coffeo i5 likely to advance to unhesrd of figures, and when quiet is again restored In Brazil the enormous shipments are likely to cause a panic.” . . The blockading of Brazilan ports attend- ing the rovolution in that country will result in the cutting off of more than three -fourths of the entire India rubber supply of this country. Fully Confirmed. Loxvox, Nov. 15.—Later dispatches from Ri0 Janeiro fully confirm the previous re- ports. The revolution aims at the overthrow of the government and proclaims a republic. T'he army supports the movement. A provisional government has been cstab- lished including Reohors da Fonseca and Benjamin Constant, Among the dispatches received, but\not fl“’ officially confirmed, is one stating that aron La da Rio, minister of marine, hus been killed, h ANl Quiet in Guaremala. * New Yonk, Nov., 15.—The latest,papers from Guatemala tell of the immediate down- foll of tue riotous outbreak which was thouht at the time might result in a revol tion, ‘Three louders were shot, the others surrendered and all is quiet. e OUK CONTRACT LABOR LAW.

President Livingstone devoted half an hour to the discussion of the principies of the allance. He described the condition of the farmer in the south, how ke nhad contended against the greatest difficulties since the war und how he now was laboring 1n the hope that he might educate his cbildren. The mortgaged condition of the southern faurms formed one feature of his talk. His address made a deep impression and was frequently ap- plauded.

NO ADVANCE COPIES PRINTED. An Air of Mystery That Suggests a Docament of U ual Interest ~Allison’s Possible Defcat and Its Effect. WasmNoToN Bureau Tre OMAnA Ben, £13 FOURTERNTIL STREET, Wasmisaron, D. C., Nov. 15, Prosident Harrison's anseuce from the city on a three days’ duck shooting tour in Mary- land is taken as evidence that he has about completed his message to congress. It is un- derstood that the president is awaiting some roport from his cabinet officers in order that he may be possessed of certain routime infor- mation necessary to give his message the fin- ishing touches. Certainly he has in his pos- session the salient points which the report of the cabinet officers will contain and he has been given the benefit of them sin the prepa- ration of his message up to this time. It is understood that Secretary Windom’s report will figure more prominently in the ‘message than tuat of any other cabinet officer, Among the most interesting features of the message will be those relating to the cir- culation of national bank uotes, national bank deposits, the abolition of the internal reyenue laws and the expansion of the monthly coinage of silver. The secretary’s and the president's views aro in accord on the latter subject. Senator Sherman has visited the white house several times recently and it is stated that his missions h.ve been to impress the president, with tho necessity of ot only ad- vocuting a national election law, but of treat- ing it vigorously and earnestly. Representative Burrows of Michigan, and other republicuns who recently stumpea Virginia, have also urged the wpresident to take positive stops iun- favor of a national election law. T'he determination of the president not to have his message printed at the government printing ottice 1h advance of its delivery to congress, as has been usual, but o have manifold copies made by his private type- writer, 18 taken as evidence that the docu- ment will contain unusually interesting rec- ommendations, ALLISON'S POSSIBLE DEFEAT, The reports published here from Iowa concerning the possibility, i1f not the proba- bility, of the defeat of Senator Allison for re-olection have had the effect of stirring up the senator’s friends in the national capital as they wero never perturbed before. It is not likely thau the republicans of Towa fuiiy appreciate the services of Sena- tor Allison, a8 he has been away from the presence of his constituents 80 much during the past ten years. His re- tirement to private life would be very un- fortunate for the country at large, Demo- crats, prohibitionists, republicans and citi- zens of all other political faiths would suffer alike. He stands as a breakwater against all kinds of vicious legislation ana is the ablest representative of those western inter- ests which have been waturing during the past quarter of a century. A writer in to- day’s Post, under the caption, **War on Sen-~ ator Allison—do the Iowa republicans pro- pose to commit political harikari{’ quotes a dispatch from Des Moines announeing that the small majority in the Iowa legislature makes it probable that tho senator's oppo- nent will defeat his re-election, and then Roes on to call attention to the misfortunes, especially to fowa, that would follow Sen- tor Ailison’s retirement to private life. In the course of the long article, the following is said: ““I'he position Mr., Allison has attained as chairman of the committee of appropriations of the senate makes lowa at this time one of tho most influential states in congress. His defeat means the loss of this vantage ground. lowa can afford no such loss,” Since the Fortieth congress down to the Pifty-first, inclusive, - a period of twenty-four years, three states have held the chairmanship of this most important. committee on apvropriations twenty years of tbis time, It)1s a plain proposition that if Towa allows herself once to loose her griv on he purse strings of the nation, und the con- trol to pass to another state. she will not under senatorial usage soon agwin be called upon to resume churge of them. HBesides his position of commanding influence on the ap- propriation committee, Senator Allison 18 fourth on the committee of finonce, and was chairman of tho sub-committee to shape tariff legislation in the Fittieth congress and will be at the head of the sub-committee in the Fifty-firsy congress, 80 that Lowa not only shapes all appropriution bills, but the west has tuus in Senator Allison’s person been accorded the rivilege of shaping the new tariff legis- ation. ‘The main fact is the politiciag is not born who will live to see Iowa in 8o commanding place as she to-day occupies by reasonof the national confidence repoged in her senior senator, and the republican legislator who would muke oueof rhe few to combine to tear Jowa from this, her proud position, will fill 8 most unenviable page 1 the his- tory of the nation, his state and his party. THE BPEAKERSHIP OANVASS, The tide 1n the speakership campaign s turniog against Mr. Reed, of Maine. Southern and western members are look- ing up his record on certain questions of vital importance to their sections of the country. They say that Mr. Reed has ro- peatedly announced bimgelf in opposition to the river and harbor appropriation; that he not only votea agamst the last two or three river and harbor bills, but assisted the fil. busterers in defeating the measure in the last congress. - They also say that bie has on more occasions than one said that he was in favor of the demonetization of silver and that he beifeved thore was only one safe metal- lic base for currency and thut was gold, 1f upon examination of the record he is found to have thus ovposed the river and harbor bills and the regular monthly coinage of silver thera is very little if any doubt that the south and west will combine aainst him, It develops thut the private business that Major McKinley went to New York on the other duy relates to the speakership. Mr, Reed hus worked all summer and fall to secure the solid custern delegition and his friends are claiming a sohd delegation from New York and New Eugland. Major Mc- Kinley during his stay in New York City is seelug members of the New York delega~- tion with a view to securing some of them for his support. General Ketchum, one of the oldest New York members, suys the talic bout the delegation being solid for Reed all fol de rol, and yet Geuerrl Ketchum is one of Reed's supporters. The siiuation poiuts more strongly in the direction of & combination of the south aud west and a withdrawal at an early stage in the caucus of turee of the four western candidutes with a view to securing the defeut of Mr, Reea by the field, Mr. Caunon, of Illinois, is to-night very hopeful that he is the wan of destiny, and there are good reusons why he shouid take hope.

General Crook, 1 answering the charges that the delay in opening the rescrvation was due to the fact that the promise which he had made to the Indians to induce them to cede their territory had not been fulfitled, said : I may say that neither I nor any member of the commission made any promise of re- dress of grievauces that we were not amply able 10 carry out and which will not be carried out to the letter. Thers were some small grievances which we could not, from theiv nature, pledgo ourselves person- ally to have redressed, but upon our promise to represent these in as favorable a light as vossible #t Washington, the chiefs expressed themselves as perfectly satisfied."
