the daughter of Mrj. John W. Mackay , bus
applied for a separation from Prlnco Ferdi
nand ( Inllntro Colonnn and for the custody
of her three children , Andrea , aged 8 ,
Blanco , aged 0 , and Marie , 4 years of ago.
The marriage took place In Paris In 1SS1 ,
Algr. ( li Htnde , the papal nuncio to Franco ,
officiated at the religious ceremony , which
was one of I ho special events of the season.
Two years before the marriage Prince
Colonnn mot Mrs. Mnckay's daughter , then
Miss Bryant , in Italy. Ho followed her to
Paris and asked Mrs. Mackay for her hand.
She replied ;
" 1 don't approve of her marrying a
foreigner. Moreover , don't he deluded ; she
is not Mr. Mackay's child , but his slep-
She has no "money of her own.
Therefore she has no dot. She Is my
Kluughtor by my first husband , but she takes
Mr. Mackay's name at his request. "
The prince persisted and his uncle , Prince
Stiglcatio Colonnn , wrote in his behalf , sayIng -
Ing that money was of no .consequence , as it
was a love match. Mrs. Mackay eventually
gave way. The bride was married without
a dot or settlement , but Mrs. Mackay
allowed her an income of $175.000 a year , be
sides giving her many valuable presents.
Showed lilt Cloven Hoof.
The prlnco nnd his bride wont to Naples.
Six months after the marriage the prince
began demanding money of his wife. She
thci ] discovered that ho had a taste for
gamblini ; , horse.raclnir and a fast life. She
bore lu > abuse , taunts and vulgarity until
October last , wlJJh bho loft him in Paris and
took her throe cl-.vldren to the Hotel Brigh
ton , where her grandmother. Mrs. Hunger-
ford , was staying ! Mvs. Mackay at the
ftimo tlino came o-i from Scotland to her
daughter's aid.
The Ilurnld'fl correspondent saw nn Inti
mate friend of the family yesterday , who
sftW : "Princo Cc-lonna and Mrs. Mackny
have not spoken for years. No one would
believe the enormous sums Mr. Mackay has
paid for-tho prineo's gambling debts over
1,000,000 francs in live years , apart from the
allowance ho made his step-daughter. Ho
also gave hcr-sho money with which to fur
nish their house ! All went in gambling.
When his wife left their apartments , the
prince sold all the tapestries and furni
ture und oven her wedding presents , and is
now living on the proceeds.
Ilii Mlitook Her Nature.
"He frequently suii ( to his wife , I will
take your American independence out of
you.1 She replied , 'You may If you kill mo. ' "
The friend who told mo the above added
that such a long-sufterlng and devoted
wife us the princess was never * known.
Finally she lost alt respect for her husband
nnd determined to leave him. The only time
they have since mot was during the prelim
inary proceedings In court.
Mr. John W. Mackay IMS written to his
daughter : "I am glad you have taken this
Htep. People will talk , of course , but you
do not live to please other people , nnd need
not care what anyone says , as lorni us you
nro happy and frco , " *
The case comes on shortly. The princess
nnd her mother are living quietly in adjoinIng -
Ing apartments at the Hotel Brighton In this
city , and have refused all social Invitations.
Mrs. Mackay , however , expects to attend the
wedding of Miss Adel Grant and the curl of

News has Just been received from the Her
ald's correspondent nt llio , He writes
under duto of November 21 that from his
observations of the city It Is hardly possi-
bio for n stranger to rcaluo that
u itato of blcgo exists. The streets
are crowded with pedestrians and , while
business Is paralyzed , the shops are all open.
The damage to the luniscs which have been
hit during the bombardment Is apparent.
Most of the persons killed during the firing
were along the water front , where Admiral
Mello'H launches patrol day and night , ex-
I'hanglng shots with Pcixoto's guards.
round ! ) ! ! ; Aw.iy lit thu I'orr ,
The government forces have , been pouring
shot and shell into Fort Villogulgnon dally
for the Inst 'veolc. The barracks there nro
now almost in ruins , while the fort is In
fairly good condition. Thn garrison In the
fort Is still united In adherence to Mello's
cause , Mello's licet replies tn thn attacks
from shore with its heavy u'uns.
The garrison Is supplied with
food by the launcncs , which are constantly
patrolling the harbor. Many of the shore
batteries have been put out of action by the
guns from YiUoguignon ,
There was continuous firing on Niclhcroy
yesterday , but few of tbo shuts /ell where
they were directed , It Is thought the poor
marksmanship is duo \o the use of un
Inferior quality of powder ,
Mi'irhiint * Ara luiiiMe > l.
I have talked with many of the loading
merchants of the city , They suy they are
disgusted with the present tstato of affairs ,
nnd hope for n speedy termination of the
war , I'nder the present condition every
thing is in suspense. A rumor Is put In circu
lation dally th'ut it is the Intention of Mello to
bombard the city. It Is believed that this
it probable , as Pcixoto's battorlea nro liable
to draw ilru'on the city. I tallied with several
people hero. They expect that Mcllo will soon
make a lundlng hero and that many will join
lilt cause. The people are afraid to speak
openly owing to the rigid police restrictions
and number of the government spies in the
street.
Residents of the city regard the constant
firing 'with Indifference. Crowds collect at
| ) ohits of advantage on the water fronts to
witness the flrlntr. Mcllo is nt present de
terred from l nilinB' owing to the small force
on his ships.
Hupprcmcil n Ncwupappr.
The government today suppressed n
church newspaper because ot unfavorable
criticism of the government orean. Pclxoto
has thus Incurred thodlsllknof the Catholic
clergy , many of whom are seriously in favor
of the restoration of the monarchy , because
they were deprived of their salaries under
the republic.
The- government expected an Important
move on the part of the squadron today.
To prepare for nn emergency sandbag
bulwarks were erected along thn shore.
The wildest rumors were nlloat. There ni-o
now nineteen ships of foreign power In the
harbor.
IIHtUli Ship Inlcrfrri-d.
Pclxoto attempted to arrest Captain
Cooper ol the Cinllcia for taking Huy Bar-
boni : to Buenos Ayrcs. The British warship
Hacer which escorted her in prevented the
arrest.
The Herald's correspondent In Buenos
Ayrcs sends word that Minister Assis of
Brazil visited Uemetrio Hibcrio last night.
Demetrlo Hlberlo is an aitcnt of the BrazilIan -
Ian revolutionists. The result of the con
ference between the minister and the agent
is not yet known.
Solid Shot riylnc ,
A man was killed in front of the United
States consulate on November 21 by a slug
shot fiylng over the houses. Mcllo was
compelled to return the shots-owing to the
government soldiers firing 9:1 : his boats.
The Herald correspondent can state with
authority that Admiral Mcllo has no Inten
tion to Inlllct damage on the city of Ulo do
Janeiro or Nictheroy. Ho only fires whei < 3
ho is attacked. Shots have been occasionally
fired from the Armacao In an attempt to dis
lodge the government forces who are trying
to prevent Mello's launches from obtaining
munitions of war for his ships.
Pclxoto places great reliance on tbo tor
pedo boatswhich were purchased In Ger
many.
News has been received confirming the
accounts previously cabled you of the arrest of
United States Consular Agent Grant at Dos-
tcrro. Minister Thompson was notified of iho
arrest at his residence in Petropolis , which
Is three hours travel from the city. In case
Mello makes a landing , cuts t.ho wires and
destroys the railroads Thompson will be
unable to reach Hlo do Janeiro. He would
be shut off from all communication. It is
believed that if the foreign ministers would
confer with Mello and then submit a propo
sition to Pelxoto , insisting firmly on its
acceptance , the situation would be relieved.

Since the news of the rebel victory larger

It is said they will meet at Tres Jacalca and

hero linvo telegraphed to Diaz asking rein

totally Inadequate in numbers to cope with

The forced levy , which was made with the
view of making suspected rebels fight their

not been ns great a success as was antici

of a battle between the Insurgents and the

Heports received here , .Jiowovcr , trom In-

note to the editor of the Times saying that
the rebels were not fanatics , but were fight
ing for the overthrow of a tyrant.
Another special from Darning says a
A courier reached there this evening with
an account of a skirmish which occurred be
tween Mormon colonists and rebels last
Wednesday. A party of seven colonists who
had been reconnoitering wore ambushed by
over forty revolutionists. The colonists
made a stand and killed one of the rebels
and wounded several others. The colonists
then retreated to < ji canon near by and kept
the rebels off till night , when they were res
cued by a party of citizens and soldiers sent
out by Colonia Dublan. All the colonists es
caped injury. The failuroof the government
to afford the colonists proper protection has
resulted in the colonists arming themselves
and standing guard day and night. Every
colony has an armed force of least lifly men.
O'l'lio rebels have apparently separated , the
larger part moving to the vicinity of Guer
rero , a city about 200 miles southeast and of
nearly f > , UX ( ) inhabitants. Over 1,00(1 ( troops
are now stationed at Guerrero and it is
scarcely probable that tbo rebels will make
an attack. Small bands arc still encamped
in the Sierra Madrcs , apparently waiting
for recruits , as signal fires can bo seen every
night. The colonists distinguished them
selves by their great bravery in a skirmish
which occurred.near Colonia Pacheco. The
rebels nro circulating reports that if the
troops glvo battle the officers -will bo shot
down nnd the soldiers will join them , which
injilccs the officers slow to advance upon the
rebel strongholds.

WASHINGTON , Nov. 27. I
It seems that the letter which Andrew
Cainegie recently wrote to a democratic
member of the ways and means committee ,
nnd mentioned in a Hin : special , respecting
the proposed cut In the duty on Imported
steel rails was penned either in a spirit of
sarcasm or passion. Mr. Carneglo hud been
notified that the duty on stcol rails was to
bo reduced to fl or W a ton from JliJ.oO , as
the present law provided , and ho was asked
what ho had to say about It. It came to tl'o
great steel manufacturer of Pennsylvania
like tlio question which Is propounded to
the condemned man on the gallows when ho
is asked if ho has anything to say before his
execution. Mr. Carnegie wrote that ho
had no favors to ask and ho did
not care what the committee did about
the duty on steel rails ; that appeared
as though the ways and means committee
was bout on destroying the industry in this
country , and that ho could stand it as well
as the democratic party could ; that if it
wanted to throw down the bars to competi
tion with England , the brunt of the burden
would full upon labor , and that so far as ho
was concerned ho could manufacture stool
rails without any protective duty and in
frco competition with England , but that ho
would produce the rails with labor paid upon
the British basis. This puts the sentiment
of Mr. Carneglo in a very different light
from that , In which democratic newspapers
reported it nnd which sonic of the demo
cratic members of the ways and means com
mittee gave it out nt the tlnmlt was received
from one of them by Tun UIBcorrespondent. :
ot thu Xew TiirllT.
Vaccillatlon has marked the work of the
ways and means committee on the now tariff
bill from start to finish. It was the inten
tion when I wired Tnu Hen last niirht to
make the law take effect In April or March ,
ISO. ) , but at ! i o'clock this morning it was
agreed that March , 1SOI , shoulu be the date
put into the bill as it will go into the house ,
and leave the senate to extend the time.
The duty on lead was also changed at the
hist moment. Upon the demand of the Mis
souri democrats , lead ere was placed upon
the free list and then taken olT and made to
pay 15 per cent ad valorem for the net lead.
Silver-bearing lead ere is free * however.
This is important to the smelter at Omaha.
Pearl buttons arc made to pay an ad
valorem duty of 40 per cent instead of 23
per cent , as at present'nnd 2. ' cents a vow
specific duty. The cut is enormous , being
from -duty of over : tOO per cent to' 40 per
cent.
The farmers como in for a great cut as
well us the manufacturers. Whereas the
McICinloy lau : glve'8' the farmer a protection
of .10 per cent or more , this bill p.its many
articles like eggs anil vegetables on-thc free
list , and cuts the'dutiable articles down to
an average of 15 or 20 per cent.
The most important feature of tlio bill is
the change from specific to ad valorem
duties. ' 1 nis is oven more important to the
country and thogovernmeilt than the lower
ing of rates. It means that all is to bo left
to the honesty of the appraisers and any im
porter , who Is willing to "tlx" a dishonest
appraiser , can got under-vu'uatlons. ' The
republicans Mad the law so arranged that
there could bo no swindling by undor-vuluu-
iiotis and every one , including the govern
ment , was treated honestly. Now the doors
to fraud are to bo thrown wldo open.
Income Tux Almost Cortiiln.
It is the understanding that Mr. Bryan's
incnmn tax scheme will oo accented In a lim
ited form. Corporation shares , as hereto
fore announced , will pay a tux. Mr. Bryan
alked cheerfully to Tin : Bun man today and
expressed the oelicf that an income tax
would bo agreed upon thii week. It Is be-
ieved that all corporations and firms acting
on the principles of corporations or partner
ships will bo compelled to report to the gov
ernment their gross earnings and expanses
ind pay a tax of about ! i per cent. If they
refuse or attempt to evade the law , an In-
Lornal revenue officer will bo placed
over their establishment , the same as a
jausrer or storekeeper presides over a dls-
LilleVy or liquor warehouse. It is very prob
able thnt the whisky tax will be Increased ,
init that lias not yet been settled. It ap
pears to bo a necessity. The bill us it now
Hands is intended to bo a revenue measure
only , but it falls almost a hundred millions a
year short of raising enough revenue to meet
the expenses of the government. It is more
a bill to destroy American industries than
anything else. It will bo modified in the
house and greatl.v amended before it gets
through the senate.
Wnnt Aciilun Mr. Hoot.
The supreme court of the * United States
today , through Assistant Justice Jackson ,
affirmed the decision of the United States
circuit court of Nebraska , In tlio cuso of
Allen Root , appellant , against James M.
Woolworth. The case dates back to 15479 ,
and Involves the tltln of property In Omaha
which at one.tlmo was hold by Governor
Oliver P. Morton of Indiana. The property
\vas obtained by Morton through a sheriff's
deed , which was finally transferred to tils
brother , William S. T. Morton , The supreme
court says that the statute of limitation
does not constitute any bar to ( ompkiinant's
right to maintain thu bill , nnd thnt the appel
lant stands In the sumo position that
lie did in the former estate ; that it was
decreed that ho had no right or
title , or if since that decree ho has enclosed
a part of the land , cut wood from It or cul
tivated it , ho would no considered as hold
ing it in subordination of the title of Morton
and his privy In estate until ho gave notice
that his holding was adverse and In tbo
assertion of actual ownership in nimsolf ,
The supreme court decides further that in
his position ho could not have asserted ad
verse possession after the decree against
him without leaving express notice to
Morton or his vendees that ho was clalmlttg
adversity ; that without such , notice to
Morton , the length of time intervening be
tween the decrees and the Institution of the
present suit would give him no better right
than ho previously possessed , and his Hold
ing would be treated as In subordination of
title to the real owners ,

WA IIINHTON , Nov. 27. The Treasury do-
mrtmcnt is somewhat concerned over the
irospeet of Chinese rcclstrntton under the
lew law bearing upon that subject which
Kissed upon the eve" of the adjournment of
ho extra session and under which the do-
lartmont has Just issued Its regulations.
The supposition is that the Chinese will COIM-
ily with the law , but no one can say dell-
iltely until thu experiment is tried.
Tlio only experience which the department
officials have had wLh thoChincso isngainst
, hc supposition. There had been uo reason
to suppose that they would refuse to register1
miner the ( Scary aft , but they did infuse ,
i ml when It came to applying the law they
Idled It openly and went into court upon the
constitutionality of thn question with all the
temeilty of native Americans. 'Ihoy at
tempted to use the law with their usual
shrcwdncsi to got a few of their aged people
loported to China without expense to them
selves , but otherwise displayed n stolid In-
llfTcronco to their fate. When they received
the filial verdict of the courts , which was
icutnst them , they again appealed to con-
eress for a stay of proceedings In tbo shape
of an extension ol the time In which they
might register.
Congrca's U'ns I'rlniully.
In making this request they made no act
ual promises , althomrh they held out some
inducements which led congress to believe
that they would accept the terms of the law.
The negotiations were conducted by the Chi
nese legation In Washington. It was repre
sented that in refusing to icgl ter the Chi
nese residents had acted under the advice of
eminent counsel and at tlio instance of the
| Xwcrful Six Companies , nnd the belief was
expressed , without specific promise , that if
they were granted the extension which they
asked they would bo much gratified , It was
upon this representation that the adminis
tration espoused the cause of the Chinese
and congress gianted the extension.
It Is , of course , possible that the cost of
deportation had some inllucnce upon the
government , and it is probable also that
there was a feeling that public sentiment
would bo strongly aroused by the wholesale
arrest of Chinamen throughout the country ,
under the provisions of the ( Scary net ,
which were in some quarters considered
harsh.
Almost a month has elapsed since the new
law has gone into effect and no test of the
temper of the Chinese has been made under Us
provisions. The instructions of the depart
ment tellinjr the federal olllclals how to act
have now been prepared , and it is to bo pre
sumed that no great time will be permitted
to elapse before the United States marshals
and other officials throughout , the country
will bo Informed as to the course they are
expected to pursue toward the Chinese.
Could Atliku TlihiKH A\vk\v.ini.
If they should again refuse to comply the
situation would uo awkward. Estimates
made at tlio Treasury nnd Judicial depart
ments have placed the cost of deportation of
all thoChincso at something over$10.003-
000 nnd there"is but little money available
for the purpose. Congress will. In ail proba
bility , bo in session when the vexed
points shall bo determined , and It
could , of course , bo appealed to
for an appropriation. But with the
treasury receipts 'falling behind the
expenditure nt the rate of otOOjOOO , per _
month , the question of gnUinc'llfe' money
would still bo u puzzle , nnd it would doubt
less need soma hard pressing to go' , the nec
essary funds appropriated. The Pacific
const representatives , who have taken the
greatest Interest in the question , say the
money would be lorthcomtng and that there
would bo no more temporizing.
It is said that the Chinamen generally did
not object to tlio registration , and really
look upon it as a ineans'of personal protec
tion , but the bulk of them would bo con
trolled by their employers now as Curmerly.
They do not , as a race , take Kindly to having
their photographs taken for tbo purpose , but
there is no reason.to suppose that this oh
jection will long stand in the way of coir ,
plianco with the law if the Six Companies
and the attorneys bo not obdurate.

WASHINGTON , Nov. 2" . The ilcinocratla
tarilT bill was given out to the public thin
morning. Its provisions fulfill every oxpec-
tntlonof tbosovho have predicted Hint It
would bo n radical mcisura : of reform. In
many respects it is a surprise oven to tint
democratic incmbors of congress , as it Is
unprecedented In innny of Its provisions.
The free list is liberal enough In its seopo
to satisfy tbo most iadlcul advocates of reform -
form , mid the rcpiuliation of tbo principle
of reciprocity , which bus boon the pride oC

the democrats for 11 number of yours , la * ,

in addition to the re form which it makes hi
the customs , will necessitate new treaties
with those of the .South American countries
which enjoy practical or theoretical freu1
trade with the Unltcil States.
The bounty on sugar which was to ba so
promptly repealed Is , instead , to Ue repealed. ]
by easy gradations and will not reach its
