Roxe, Nov. 24.—At a cabinet council, held 0 o'clock this morning, the ministry de- d to resign. The Chamber of Deputies was turonged when it opened today and Sig. Cavalotti caused a lively scene when the minutes of vesterday's mesting were read. He com- Plained that the sitting was closed when the extreme feft was about to submit a motion. The president commenced an explanation of this incident amid great excitement, the ex- treme left imembers in the meantime de- nouncing the ministers. ' Warm!ly Defended Himself. The minister of finance, Sig. Grimaldi, warmly defended himsclf against the a tacks on the extreme left, declaring that he was an honest man and fully as solicitous of public morals as his opponents. He was loudly applauded. Premier Guolitti, before making the minis- terial declaration, declarad that he wished 10 state in hisown name and in the names of Lis colleagues that they wished to resume their seats in the Chamber of Dcputies in order to have full liberty of speech. The remarks of the premier caused much excitement in the chamber, cspecially among the members of the extreme loft. When the noise had somewhat subsided, Premier Giolitti proceeded to announce the resigna- tion of the cabinet, adding that the king had reserved his decision upon this important matter and that the ministers would in the meaunume remain in office. After the dispatch of current business a motion to aajourn was made. The extreme left members and especially Sig. Imbriani strongly dencunced Premier Giolitti, who warmly retorted. Sig. Imbriani shouted: *‘You have fallen litti rejoined: e you will not mud upon my “Whatexer efforts vou even suceced in splashi boots.” This caused reuewed excitement in the chamber, during which some very hot words were heard from the extreme left and equaily warm replies from the supporters of the government.

When order had bien restored the presi- dent of the Chamber called for a vote upon tbe motion to adjoura, which was approved by the whole house with the excention of the left. The sitting closed amid much up- roar, ard afterwards it was reported that the king was taking steps to consult the president of the Chambers and leaders of different parties in regard to the formation of a new cabinet. 5 During the meeting the minister of war submitted a report as to the military posi- tion of Ttaly In July, 1891, as compared with her position at the present day. The report shows that the minimum peace effective has changed, but thav the wmaximum 1s greater, and that the war cffective is nearly 1,000,000 men, as compared*with 791,000 ut the time mentioned. The time of mobiliza- tion has been reduced by six days, and the army possesses 1,625,000 Wotterly repeating rifies. The artillery already has been in- creased by 250 powerful guns, The report gives equally satisfactory de- tails regarding the varous forts and con missiarat departments. aud concludes by de- claring that the report is reassuring to Italians regardiog the eficiecy of the army which was recently questioned in the news- papers.

He took a leading part in the Nuri revolution and afterwards in the Tuxtepec plot, which established the present Diaz government Untila year ago he was in the service of Diaz, when he was insulted in the town of Guerrero and fired upon by federal soldiars, under command of a Mexican captamn. The latter had just reached Guerrero with his scattered band of soldiers, who had been put to flight, with all General Banjelos' troops, by the Tomochians, Provoked u Eatile. He asked Perez wny he had failed to help with meu in the attack of Tomochick. The revolutionist answered that he had obeyed his orders to the letter. The captain called him a coward and they came to blows and immediately the troops of both commanders were firiug At one another across the plaza of Guerrero. Santa Auna Perez was wounded and with- drew with his men to a neighboring town. From there the next day he sent to Guer- rero for some baggage and horses he had left behind, ordering the messenger to say that if the goods were not delivered he would go in person toget them. All were delivered. Siuce that time Perez has been against the government and was a prominent leader 1w the outbreak atTomusachie and Santo Tomas. All he lacks is money and as soon as he can gain a victory he will secure financial aid. On this side of the river the government is forcibly pressing men to the army and the riveris being patrolled on both sides, till small bands from Texas continue to cross over and are traveling westward. It is probably some of these detached bands the federal troops have encountered instead of Perez. JavVA forces i¥ A TOTAL LOSS. No Effort Wil Be Made to Kaise the Iu- surzent Ironclad. [Co' yrighted 189 by James Gor Moxtavipeo, Uruguay (via Galveston, Tex.), Nov.24. —[By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald—Special to Tae Ber.]— Mello's ill-fated warship, the Javary, was sunk, as I have already cabled the Herald, by the guns of Fort Sao Joas, in Rio de Ja- neiro harbor, and is considered a total loss.

NEW Yorg, Nov. 24—The new Brazilian cruiser America made her first move toward the scene of her future action by moving down to the East river this morning to a point near Upper Bedloes island. As much of her preparation for warfave as could ba done with the Morgan lIron works, where she was transferred from an ordinary pas- senger steamship to a man-ol-war, had been already completed and all that now remains is to put the destructive gunpowder and dynamite aboard her and to ship the two bie fifty-five pound rifies which arrived here this morning from Europe in the White Star liner Germanic. The mounting for one of these guns is already 1n position. The other mounting came on the Germanic, but as it is « duplicate of the one now on hand,jt has been no great trouble to prepare for setting itup. The platform of wood has been con- structed on the cruiser's forward de even the boltholes have been cut thro that all that remains is to bolt the mount- ing down o the deck and adjust its machin- ery. It will then beready for the big gun.

A number of large designs were re- ceived from late ofticials associates at Wash- ington,from ex-President Harrison's family, from fellow members of the cabinet.the Loyal Legion aud the Masons, The public services Wi of an extempore cnaracter and were conducted by Rev. Mr. Huzum of the Metho- dist church and Prof. D. Butler, a warm personal friend of General Rusk. Prof. But- ler was for many years wiith the Wisconsin university and was previously a Congrega- tional minister. He was %0 years of age today and made a feeling and beautiful ad- dress, a last sad tribute to his lifelong friend. Shortly before his death Mr. Rusk had his wife send for Prof. Butler to help bury him. A choir rendered a number of favorite selections and there were one or two solos The religious services were followed by tne reading of the beautiful burial service of the Masonic olue lodge by H. Bensonberg, com- mander of Wisconsin cousistory. The Masous all wore mourning. The little churen was effectively drapad. There was u large portrait of General Rusk back of the alt framed iu crepe, and a large silk flag draped the altar—the favorite “'eld glory" so.affec- tionately referrcd to by the general iu one of his recent public addresses. !

Chief Clerk Smith said that advices from Sayre were to the eflect that passenger trains were all on time today and that the local passenger service was re-established and that there were good prospects for moving freight ehst and west from tdat point tod, The strikers are encouraged by the federa- tion leaders, who are here, to keep up a con- fident bearing and declare their belief that they will win in the end. They say that the majority of new wmen are incompetent aud the company will flad it impossible w0 do business with them. Following ten trains of merchandise sent eastward by the Lehigh this forenoon and containing 117 cars three more freights wero dispatched this afternoon. This was con- sidered a great duy's work, and the officials said it would hardly be policy to send out any more until the ability to move them at e was manifestéd. ‘he stories spread the strikers that the first train had broken down and all four trains were blocked were unfounded. Other statements of strikers that new men had burned out their engines were aiso found to be untrue. It was pretty well understood today that the action of the engineers and firemen on the Nickel Plate and Lake Shore roads in handling the westbound freights delivered 1o those roads by the Lehich Valley tod would be the subjoct for action at this afler- nooa’s meeting. The freight was handled by nouunion men and, inwccordance with the rules of the federation. this road should be boycotted by union men. It seems that the men on these roads will be asked to go out. The question of the hour is: Will they do so? If they decide to join their brethren ou the Letiigh, the spread of tho strike seems almast certain. Certainly, the events on the Lehigh today are not such as to encourage men on other roads o go out. Hopes of n Compromise Dissipated. WiLkesBaRRE,Nov. 24.— Theve was hopeall along until today that a compromise might be effected betwesn the striking Lehigh men and the company, but now that hope has vanished. This hope was dispelled this morning by the issuance of the following communication to Chairman Rice, from Messrs. Simpson and Watkins, the coal operators delegated at the operators meeting to meet Mr. Witbur and see if he would not assent to a hearing in the matier at iss ““In your insisting upon the reinstatement of the employes, our negotiations for a con- ference have failed. Mr. Wilbur is stanaing v his circular of November 21 in its en- tirety.” . Mr. Rice, upon reviewing the situation, said: I very much regret that the hopes that we cherished yesterday of an early ad- justment of our difculties have about vavished. It looks like a long fight, but we are preparea for it.” The officials say the old employes cannot now be received as an entirety, but they may apbly for and obtain work upon the same conditions as outsiders. Qulet at Sayre. Savee. Pa., Nov. 2£.—This has been a quiet day here and the strikers this after- noon almost entirely deserted the depo; and yards, They have been well behaved. Their surprise was great when they were informed late this afternoon that the sheriff nad sent for 100 deputies to help guard the yards, and the men suy there is nothing for the forty already there to do and there is no reason for additidnul drafts, exeept to make trouble and then blame them forit. They assert that every efiort is being made to force them to commic violence. Sheriff Powell refuscs to suy what he wants the extra deputics for. Passenger trains have been run today with about the same regularivy us yesterday and some freight has been moved. On the whole, however, a great deal has not been done. The strikers have not lost a man by desertion, but have captured quite a number from the railroad compan. Found a Cache of Dynamite. Rocnesten, Nov. 24.—Five large cartridges supposed to be filled with dynamite were found beside the Lehigh tracks a lite above the railroad station tos Each eartridge is about elght inches long and two inchies In_diameter. They aro not of the ordinary kind used in blasting and no blasting has been done in the neighborhood recently. Oue of these cartridges would have wrecked a train if properly used. They were tied tozether and evidently had been placed hurriedly there to hide. Ofiicers are at work trying 10 learn who is responsi- ble for the presence of the dynamite. The strikers_committee disclaim any knowledge afluir. ns are still runping irregularly with enger wrains. The company is still enrolling men to take the strikers' blaces. iou of the Broezes JersEy Ciry, Nov. 24.—A cold, stiff wind whistled over the freight yards of the Le- high railroad in Jersey City today and was the only sign of activity that pervadad the vicimty. There was not a person visible who gave any indication of being a striker, and the puffs of engines were few and far between. One or twp switch engines ran up and down the tracks, but their services could have easily been dispensed with. 1t is said the Jersey Central has determined not to handle the Lehigh freight and so avoid trouble on its own lines. Freight and Coil Trains Moviog. astON, Pa., Nov. 24.—The Lehigh Valley oficials announce that during the past tweuty-four hours three freight trains and oue coal train were moved east and three freiehts and two coal trains went over the Eastern & Auiboy division, and four freights and eiglit coal trains went' over the Lehigh division. : Tho sheriff has sworn in fifty special depu- tics. The strikers held a maeting at Wilkes- barre today and resolved to remain firm. QO Engi ra Roturn Home. Gaespukg, 11, Nov. 24.—A number of the Cnicago, Burlington & Quincy engineers, who left nere on Mouday night to 1ake pos! tious on the Lehigh, have returned to their runs on the Burlington. They expected they would get passenger rung on the Le- high, or atleast, be able to better their con- dition. They found, however, they were ex- pected 1o sign a contract that did not specify the nature of the run or the exact nature of the service. This seemed oo risky, and so they turned back. Strikers Huave the Upper Hand, Suaxokiy, Pa., Nov. 24.—The Lehigh Val- ley strike has extended to its Mahanoy ivision.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS, HELD A LOVE FEAST Notable Gathering of Prominent Republicans at Bostan Last Night, WERE GUESTS OF THE HOME MARKET CLUB Speeches Made on the Living Isimes of the Presant Time. GOVERNOR M'KINLE\*S WORDS OF CHEER Success for Republicans Made Easy by Democratic Blundering. OTHER SPEAKERS INTERPRET THE SIGNS Ex-Speaker Reed, Senator Hoar and Othe Eioquent Leaders of the Grand Old Party Take a Part in the Evening's Proceedings. Bostoy, Nov. 24.—Twelve hundred repub. licans sat down to a love feast in the big Me- chanics hall this evening. The gallcries about the hall were crowded with several thousand more, while the air was alive with enthusiasm. Governor McKinley of Ohio was on the speakers’ platform, and he looked like a man of victory. Tom Reed of Maine was there also, and at his side was Gov- ernor-elect Greenhalge of Massachusetts, Governor Fullerof Vermont and Congressman Cousins of lowa were in the midst of them. Collector Beard, the old republican war horse of Massachusetts, was present and by his side sat the venerable Senator Hoar. President Bent of the Home Market club was the center of them all. After dinner he opened the specchmaking with a brief address. He then introduced Senator Georgo F. Hoar as the first speaker. Senutor Hoar Speaks. Mr. Hoar said: *Ldo not think just now that there is any occasion for the Home Market club to disband. There is plenty of work for it to do. The party in power is opposed to everything like good government and opposed to every principle upon which the happiness of the employe or employer depend. There are certain principles that the repmblican party stands by whether in victory or defeat. We believe eovern- ment is a failure unless every man receives,a reasonable compensation for his labors. We took this country thirty-two years ago, its flag dishonored, its bonds below par, its credit ulmost gone, treason and revolution rampant in twelve states out of thirty-one, and we left it at tte height of prosperity. Iight short months of demo. cratic rule and the apprehension of three years more of it have brought us to our pres-: ent condition. It is the duty of the Howme Market club 1o do its best to bring the country back to its former condition.” Massachusetts' Governor-Elsct, Governor-elect ¥ T.° Greenhaige then spoke as follows: *One of the chief ends and aims of the government is to give, so far as the government can give, security and prosperity to every home in the land. And day by day we are nearing the point where apparently conflicing interests and rights are 1o be brought in just and harmonious relations. You cannot adopt the easy maxim, To buy 1 the cficapest and sell in the dear- est market’ until you have arranged to pay the running expenses of your business ana wade a fair adjustment of the expenses. One of tne first steps toward giving security and prosperity t the home is to give secur- ity and prosperity to the home market and to establish permanent ana profitable recip- rocal relations between the American pros ducer and consumer “Gentlemen. to few men in their lifetime has God vouchsafed the great vindication which has come to William McKinley. They that sat within the gate spoke against him, and he had becowe the song of the drunk- ards. Now his vindication hus been borne to the ‘our corners of the earth on the voice of millious, among which rose high and clear the pure voI¢ of Massachusetts, The vindication of another great leader of the party began even earlier, the leader of the parliamentary reform, ‘"homus B Recd. Not only was he the great speaker of the Fifty-first con zress, but he became the real speaker of the Fifty-second and Fifty- third cougresses, if anything was o be done. But over and above all stands the vindication of the party. In 1500, the peo- ple. hasty and impatient, served notice to quit on that party. Yet., while working out its notice in the last two years of its term, it put the country in order, gave peace, security and prosperity to all within its borders and left s record which will form a bright page in the coun- try’'s history. What honest democrat can look with pleasure or pride on the history of his party since March 4, 15937 Where shall he look for comfort? At home or abroad, on lana or sea, domestic or diplomatic re- lavions! But another change has come. The elections just held will promote cheerful- ness and hope. Confidence is even now comm- ing back to the heartof business. Follow up our advance, Hold what you have gained, Today win back Boston and then in 1504 wi back congress, and in 1505 win back the whole country from ocean to ocesn.’ MeKialey's Choering Words, Governor McKinley was received enthusi- astically and the applause shook the great hall to its very foundation, Hesaid: 'h year in this state, as in Ohio, politics was business, and politics and business unitedly triumped. 1v was discovered business rests on confidence and certainty, and indus- try is only the agency to meet the wants of man. While the wants of munkiund are the great factor in our industrial prosperity, the ability to gratify these wanis is eseen- tial. The manufacturer makes cloth because the merchant will buy it and can give ample sccurity- for payment and the merchant wunts it because his cus- tomers wunt it and are able to pay him for his investment with a profii If the great cousuming classes are cut off in their income and wages, the merchant's sales decline, and when this oceurs ‘the manufacturer’s orders decline and when they decline the demand for labor declines and the workman's wages decline. If capital cannot get a profit out of its in- vestment it cannot work and if capital does not work labor is idle. When labor is idle wages reach the lowest point even to the few who are employed. Capital must have faith in the future. It must bo able to calculate on the future. The too common expression that the tariff could not affect busiuess is little heard now. Free ar & revenue tariff is the remedy oftered by those who differ on this question. Democratic Remedy. “More foreign goods, aud more casily to be obtained, is the prescription offered by the democrats as sure to reopen our idle mills, Will 1t helot Wil it do itt Free trade cannot rekindle the fires in our factories. Free trade caunot increase our production at home. Nobody advocates it with any such view. Its whole aim is to increase foreigu imvortations, which iu- crease must of o necessity diminish like domestic production. There can be buy one of two results to follow the introduction of free trade or a revenue tariff, Rither do mestic production will be dimivistied or the wages of labor will dimioish, or boib, and
