WasmINGTON, Jan, 30.—At a late hour the following details from the official advices of the Navy department are learned concern- ing the 20th at Rio de Janeiro Previous to the 20th Admiral Benham had communicated with Admiral da Gama, warning him agawmst firing upon American ships and refusing to allow the in- surgent commander's excuse that he had given warning concerning where the danger ine was. The commazders of the American ships having signified their desire to go to the wharves on the morning of the 25th, the admiral sent word that he would coavoy them. Healso sent to Admiral da Gama to that effect. Fired on the Flag. incidents on the word Tywo ships were convoyed to the wharves by the Detroit, the insurgents warships fol- lowing them. When pearly at the wharf, while a tug was taking a cable ashore, the insurgent warships opened fire. sending a volley of musket shot under the bow of the tug. The Detroit answered with a warning * shot, and the insurgent ship then sent a shot over the Detroit. The Detroit in reply sent a shell which reached a portion of the stern of the insurgent ship, doing little damage. Answered by a Shot from the Detrolt. The insurgent commander then fired in warning a broadside to leeward in the oppo- site direction from which the Detroit lay. ‘This was answered by another shot from the Detroit. The insurgents signaled that unless the Detroit ceascd firing, they (the insurgents) would sink the American ship. The language which was used by the American admiral in answer to this was of such a nature that the incident closed for that day and the ships were allowed to land.

The question raised in the dispaiches this afternoon as to what the United States government would do with da Gama ana his forces if he has surrendered to Admiral Benham, is exciting considerable interest in oRicial circles here. The statement that he may have so surrcndered s credited. It is supposed that if he surrendered he did so with some assuratces or promises from the American admiral. Officials are wondering what promises may have been made and whether or not Admiral Benham may have promised too much.

These scnsational reports are not yet con- firmed, but there seems to be no doubt that serious events are happening at Rio, and that the American admiral has taken ener- getic steps to protect American interests.

Easy Way Out of His Diiculty. A high ofticial of the British foreign ofce, who was questioned by the Associated press reporter as to the accuracy of the dis- patchies, expressed the opinion that it might be true that the rebel admiral had sur- rendered to the United States admiral, as it would be the easiest way out of a great difficulty. In conclusion, the foreign offiial said he did not know what the United States admiral would do with Admiral da Gama and the iusurgents who surrendered with him. Admiral Benham, he added, could not very well surrender the insurgents to Presi- dent Peixoto, who would undoubtedly shoot them, aud 1t was nardly probable that the United States government would care to as- sume the care of a mass of Brazilian wsur- gents for an indefinite period. This accord- ing to the representative of the foreign office, if iv was true that the insurgents had surrendered to the United States admiral, the latter would scem to have an elephant on lus hands.

To this communication the iusurgent admiral made no answee, The captains of three Amcrican vessels, Admiral Benham continues, idtimated that they wauted to go to the wharves and tho Americun admiral notitied Admiral da Gan that it was his intention to convoy them at sunrise on Monday.

RIOTOUS MINERS KEPT QUIET BY COLD They Are Ominously Sullen and Silent and a Renewal of the Trouble Is Expected at No Far Distant Date— Deputies Active, Prrrsnene, Jan, 30.—Reports from all points in the regionsabaut Manstleld to Sher- iff Richards up to 1 p. m. show no further trouble, and the sheriff is confident it is over. A large number of persons reported to him, but he informed them no more depucies were needed, A dispatch received this afternoon fron Mansfield says the miners employed at the Moon Run mines in Robinson Tipple struck for 70 cents this morning. No deputies have been ordered there yet. About 150 men quit work. Massrienn, Pa., Jan. 3).—A bitter cold wave which struck this valley is probably as much responsible as the activity of the deputies for the quietness of the riotously inclined miners. [t is certain that last nizht was absolutely free from disorder along the Bridgeville, Miller's Kun, Tom’s Run and Panhandle lines. The shivering deputies patrolling all night did not sce a single man who seemed by his action to have hos- tile intentions against tho tipples. The mob which assembled back of the Ridgeway mine yesterday afternoon got word that tho deputies were watching them, and like magic disapoeared. Another crowd was seen above McDonald, but this morning even their foot-tracks had been obliterated by the snow. Chief Deputy Sheriff Lowry made an carly tourof the works up the Lake Erie lines and especially in the Tom's Run district. He wired back that there were a number of men at work in the mines and conddence had been generally restored. An overator said that the presenceof the doputies was having a wonderful salutary effect upon the foreizners. Had they been 1n uniform though, the effect would have been greate There is little doubt, however, that there still exist grounds for uncasiness from the very sullen silence of the men themselves. The fact that they show no disposition to return to work extibits a spirit of deflanc which may resuit in further disorder when the deputy sheriffs leave, and this causes some apprehension. The situation at pres- ent is one of martiul quietness, with all the larger pits guarded by armed deputies, and with the prompt arrest of all who are claimed to act disorderly. To Keep Up the Guards. Peace has been thoroughly established. The only further ptan proposed is to main- tain the present forces and guard until the necessities force the Slavs to return to worl *Squire Muilin this morning gave a pre- liminary h to the Slavs arrested for rioting at Tom's Run. Of these four were aischarged and tweunty held for court. John Tomac and Andrew Stabulo, who were par- ticularly violent in urging the mob to burn the tipples on Satmiczy, were arrested today and seat to jail to await t t court. Three others, Adam Bauth, August Boozer, and Frank Shaver, said to be ringleacers in the riot, have also been arrested and placed in jail. Tnes2 men are charged with riot and arson. All the others were arrested on warrants charging them with unlawful assembling. There is only one opiuion among the lead- ing residents of Mansfield about the policy of bringiny in foreign miners and that opinion is decidedly adverse.
