MANY OF ITS DEFENDERS WERE KILLED ello Sald to Be Preparing a “Forlorn Hope"—Nictheroy W Supposed to e the Objective FPoint of the i Contemplated Attack. Spectal Brazilian Cable—Copyrighted, 1894, by the Associated Press. Rio peJaNEmo, Jan, 12.—The cxplosion which took place at Fort Villegagnon is first sup- had been men much more serfous than was at vosed. First report had 1t that & gun exploded and that several people had injured. It now appears that fifteon were killed by the explosion. Exact details as to the cause of the explosion are not kunown in Rio. One version of the affair has it that the loss of life was caused vy the ex plosion of a gun, and another account says the disaster was the result of the expiosion of ono of the magazines. In any case, the blow is a sovere one to Fort Villegagnon, which is already much damaged by the fre- quent storms of shot and shell which have visited it during the pasv few months. It also appears that the explosion on board of Admiral de Gama's flagship, the Tamandre, was more scrious than at firsy announced. Later reports say that six men were killed and eight wounded by tho ex- plosion. These disasters to tho revels have had the effect of considerably disheartening them, and it is reported that they may cause a decidod turn of tide in favor of President Peixoto. Usual Sonsational Rumors. The usual sensational rumors have been circulated in regard o these two explosions, among them being the report that the ox- plosion at Fort Villegagnon was the work of an agent of President Peixoto, who managed to obtain admission to the rebel fort and who blew up the powder magazine in one portion of the island’s fortifications. Friends of the insurgents ashore, however, deny this and say that the disaster was the result of an accident and that it is impossible for an agent of the Peixoto government to set foot inside of Fort Villegagnon. Keports received hero from Pernambuco confirm the statement that the trouble on board the dynamite cruiser Nictheroy con- tinues. It was at first reported that the crew of the Nictheroy refused to put to sea unless they were paid arrears of wages which were said to be due to them. The correct version of the affair seems to be that the crew insists upon the payment of a con- derable sum in advance and that they will not sail southward until this money is paid. The governmen, officials here deny this and say that the Nictheroy, America, Aurora and the vessels from Montevideo and other places will sail for Rio de neiro 80 soon as the entire fleev is gatherca at Pernambuco. The most conflicting reports are in circu- lation ns to the contemplated movements of the rebels. It is still announced that the rebels are preparing for an attack with thewr full force upon the city of Nictheroy and that they expect. if it is successtul, to make 4 determined attack upon the city of Rio de Janeiro itself. If this is the case the robels are sure of meeting with a warm reception, as President Peixoto has been long aw: are of their reported intentions and has taken steps to defend Nictheroy in the most thor- ough manner, and i view of the brilliant re- sistance which. that town has so long made against the rebel fleet Itis bolieved here that the government troops will be able to repulse any attack made by the rebel forces, Admiral Mello's Henlth. megarding the health of Admiral de Mello there are two versions in circulation. Ac- cording toone story he is suffering from complaints which r\‘mler him unfit to take command of the rebel operations. Accord- ing to another story the rebel commander is enjoying the most robust heaith and will personally conduct the attack on Rio de Janeiro. The United States cruiser San Francisco arvived here today and the American offi- cers were astonished to find Admiral de Mello and his flagship Aquidaban here, as the last they heard from the rebel com- mander at Bahia was that he was still oper- ating in the south. Admirat Benham, upon his arrival here, had & long interview with Captain Picking of the United States steam- ship Charleston and later received some for- eign officer: Admiral Mello is reported to have been in coustaut communication with the shore since his arrival hsre and important de- velopments are expected shortly. INSURGEN T SU ESS. Reported Battle_lu Rio Grande do Sul in Which They Were Victorious. New Yonrk, Jan. 13.—The Herald’s special dispatch from Montevideo says: News has just been received from the scene of fighting in Rio Grande do Sul. The rebels have cap- tured San Juan Dautista without meeting any opposition. Two cases of yellow fever were reported on board the Austrian corvette Zrinyi and five other cases upon merchant vessels in the bay. The health of all on board the United States men-of-war was excellent. A correspondent 1 Rio also reports that on January 4 all the ministers of foreign powers having warships in the bay informed President Peixoto and Sal- duba they would suspend all efforts at Intarvention between the contestants and that hoth sides might go ahead and bombard each other to their hearts' content, but the foreign warships did not move from their anchorageand the rebel vessels still remain ensconced behind the islands safe fro.n Peixoto's guns. News has just reached Itio of a small mutiny on the theroy at Pernambuco which forced Captain Baker to shoot one or twogf ihe crew. Is is believed by some in Ri6 That the New Yorkers were really afraid to take the Nictheroy into a fight. CAN'T FIND A © AIRMAN, Statement that th British Miners' Arbi. tration Board Will Fall Through, Loxpoy, Jan. 12.—The St. James' Gazette asserts that the acbitration board which was arvanged at the meeting of coal mine owners and representatives of their em- ployes, held at the Foreign ofice in London last November uuder the presidency of Lord Roscbery, is likely to prove a failure. At this meeting it was decided that the men should go back to worl at the old wages until January 81, and thata board consist- ing of fourteen ' representatives should be chosen to decide the scale of wages to be paid from Kebruary 1. This board was to choose 1ts own chairman, who was to he some public man not connected in any way with the coal trade. It was hoped that cither Lord Rosebery or Speaker Peel of the House of Commons would consent to preside at tho conference. 1f this allegation of the St. Jaraes' is well founded there is every possibility that the big strike of mmers will be resumed in the uear future. for the mine owners vid to be firmly determined not to continue the present wage vato any longer than theiv bromise binds them to The St. Jumes' Gazotte may be representing the mine owners' v situation. ken as ew of the a Channel Fog.

Vaillant's great desire was to become possessed of money enough to buy a chatelet in Algiers where ne could live in idlenes Times correspondent says: The domi- nant impression among the pubiic and in the | clubs and other resorts is one of surprise ut the cournge exhibited by the jury in con demning Vaillant, and the majority of the | newabavers, so ufectious is heroism as woll | as weakness, do not hesitate to commend the | jury's uction.

The number of guards around the prison of [La Roquotte, where Vaillant, the condemned auarchist, is con- fined has been doubled in consequence of threatening lettors which have been received by the authorities and which lead them to believe that the auarchisis may attempt to cause an explosion in or about the prison mentioned. At a meeting of anarchists connected with is known as the freeman group letters wore sent contaming throats to the jurors who took part in tho Vaillant trial, It is adaded that the jurors referred to have de- cided to petition President Carnot to grant Vaillant a pardon. Ic 1s also said that thi petition will be presented to President Car- not tomorrow. At a meeting of 2,000 an- archists in o night refuge at Marseilles a protest was made against the sentence im- posed upon Vaillant and resolutions of an wHammatory nature were adopted. BAD FAVOR. iliant Jury 13, w Brazitlans Do Not Take Kl Americans on the ) BreNos AYres, Jan de Janciro state that the bombardment of tho city has recommpnced. There is much fecling among the inhubitants both of the city of Rio de Janiero and of the provinces aguinst President Peixoto. This has been owing to the action of Peixoto in envolling many foreigners for vico under tho Brazilisn government. Men from tho Nictheroy ~ have been engaged in a serious disturbance at Pernam- buco. They were ashore at that placo and after a heavy drinking bout procecded to make themselves obnoxious. Vigorous measures were resorted to to overpower them and in the struggle two of the Nictheroy's men wera killed. ~The other men of the party will be dealt with rigor- ously by the Nictheroy’s command 1t is reported from Rio Grande do Sul that the goverument troops have defeated the in- surgents at Itajahy. se Urging the Government to Tnterfere.

Adams sued for £5,000 damages, claiming the death of his son represented 'a pecuniary loss of that sum to him. The case was fought strictly on the pecuniary value of the services of the boy to his father.

Evans broke in during the rancner's absence and exchanged his own rifle for a lighter onc and took the rancher’s field glags. The bandit left a note saying his own rifle was too heavy for his one arm and that he would pay for the rifio and glass at the first opportunity. Thero is no doubt about Evans' handwriting.

SLOSSON DIDN'T GET A GAME | End of His Share of the Great Matoh Leaves Him at Zero, IVES' LUCK AND SKILL SAVES HIM An ther Long Game In Which th apoleon Was Biessed by n Se to Start a Run that Won Him, tor met Cuicaco, Jan. 12.—~Ives and Slosson for the second time in the bali-line bi tournament tonight, this time tions more favorable to the who was completely snowed under Tuesday night by [ves' big run of 457, made almost entirely with the ‘“anchor nurse.” Tonight the anchor was barred and Slosson felt that he had a living chance atthe all avound game Stosson haying won the bank and missed the lay off shot Ives cornered the balis on his first shot and started off ata rattling pace, but soon lost his hold and sat down at nineteen on an easy spre He let go on the sume kind of a shot at his next opening, while in his third inning he got sewed up on abad line break with his own ball jawed Slosson started off with unusual slowness even for him. For his first four innings ho rd under condi N Yorkoer, w had vlenty of opportunitics, but could hardly make a shot to suit him. His fifth inning showed some improvement, his run of thirty-nine bemng well played. He had now taken the lead, 50 to 43, and as Ives let go easily, he got another chance in the sixth and put 1n another good run, though it was chiefly of the siedze hammer style, his miss at thirty-eight being n very hard round-tho-table shot. In the seventi he had every chance in the world for bil liards, but stopped at twelveon an easy masse. Score: Slosson, 100; Ives, 42, Poor Work for Ives. Tves began his cighth with a perfect set- up in the lower right-hand corner, but lot RO at seven on n shot a beginner would make. The balls were left very safe, however, and the young Napoleon got another benefit in the shape of a good leave, and he now sot to work to do sometbing with it. At seventy tie had the anchor, but did not use half his allowance. He now struck a smoother gait and was trotung very fast. His 100 was passed with the balls well in hand, but a freeze and bank split them at 121, and at 124 after a very poor drive ho missed u hard cushion shot. Score: Ives, ISl Slosson, In his twelfth inning Slosson did some very neat ball line nursing for forty-four and seemed likely to muke an important run, but unuccountably siipped up on the easiest possible carom. Ives for his half inning gave a fine exhibition of nursing, halting on a slow follow for lack of force. The run of fifty-nine carried him to 241; Slosson, 154. Slosson's Best Show Slosson found the balls ready bunched and showed his appreciation of the fact by doing his very best work thus far. His vun was six; even, and the score now stood: Ives, 241; Slosson, 221, In his fifteenth Slosson steppad to tho front for the first time leading off with a magnificent long shot around the table for position, which hogot to perfection. His fortieth' shot was & long and extra hazardous bank, which he would have missed but his Kiss went into a count. His devout thankfulness for this prize-taking was exhibited by some supert playing, in which he showed a perfect stroke and rare judgment. As he reached 100, his best run for the tournament, the audience cheered neartily. On he went with close position worlc and accurate use of the short drive ana never stopped until, at 144, a hard double cushion play for position downed him. He had now gained a strong lead, having a score of 65 to in his favor. Hara broaks stopped his sixtcenth inning at eight, his ninth being a kiss which devrived him ot count. Ives, in his sixteenth, played for the anchor and got it, but froze at twenty and missed on anoutand i masse. Slosson agam found the balls in a heap, but could twenty-two out of them. In his eighteenth he failed on an casy masso to the cushion and quit at seven when the outlook was most promising. Ives Goes to Work. Tves had five rather barren innings, while Slosson was reaping his harvest, and i his half of the eighteenth sot to work in dead earnest. He found the balls in casy shape and held them for a long time in_the uppe right-hand corner. He was playing balk line bifllards at its very vest, and stood to make a big run, butstrangely decided to smash his position out of all shape when there was not the slightest ueed of 1t, and so fell down at 106, Score: Slosson, 402; [ves, 368, “Chen followed two blanks on either side, due to cffective safety play, but in his twenty-first Ives broke the deadlock wich o screaming long bank shot, but let upat seven on an easy di ting go on rather slight provocation just now, as both seemingly felt the stage was a critical one, Lves in his twenty-fourth got a nico break in the lower teft-hand corner and worked it for eighteen before changing to the opposite side, but in geting out of baik he scattered the balls and quit at twenuy- seven.
