1 WASHINGTON , May 10. The republic of
Brazil la having an experience In finance like
that of the United States , but her methods of
dealing with the subject are different and
they promise to advance her to an enviable
position. Stnor Mendonca , the Brazilian min
ister here , has been a close student of the recent -
cent financial developments In his country ,
anil this , with Ills long service In the United
States , permits him to make Interesting ob
servations. Ho has received copies 'of the re
cent decree for an Internal loan of 100,000,000
contos , or $50,000,000. Part of this was taken
by the poplo In tlio form of a popular loan ,
much as Senator Sherman urged as the most
desirable manner of floating bonds. Of this
$10,000,000 was at once used In redeeming
paper money , and $15,000,000 more will be
used for the same purpose. The Important
feature of this step Is that Brazil has begun
to strengthen her gold reserve and reduce
her paper money with a view to bringing her
two forms of currency gold and paper to an
equality. It will not be bimetallism , as Brazil
has little sliver except for subsidiary coin ,
but It will Inaugurate the unlciue but ef
fective system of gold and paper circulating
aide by sldo on an equality.
8TAUTED THE I'HINTINO PRESSES.
"At the present tl.ne , " said Senor Men
donca , "our paper currency Is worth 40 cents
on the dollar In gold. This depreciation was
duo to the largo Issue of paper some years
ago under the provisional government , be
fore the republic was constitutionally organ
ized. The printing press38 were started , and
a flood of piper bills , aggregating $375,000,000 ,
a little short of the United States Issue of
greenbacks , was put Into circulation. The
gold reserve of Brazil remained at $100,000-
000. The natural result , therefore , of putting
c-it this large amount of paper while the
gold reserve remained unchanged , was to
send gold to a premium and the paper money
to a discount. At one tlmo our paper circu
lation was so Email compared with the gold
balances that paper was actually at a premium
over gold , each , paper mllrel being a gold
penny above par. But with the Increase ol
the paper currency Its value gradually fell
until , as I have stated , the current rate la
about 40 cents on the dollar of gold , or CO
per cent discount. "
Senor Mendonca was asked : "Will Brazil
"ultimately bo on a strictly gold basis , meet
ing paper , bonds and all obligations In gold ? "
"It Is not so much that as It Is a deter
mined purpose to restore complete credit tc
Its paper currency , " said he. "There Is some
silver used ns subsidiary coin , but not suf
ficient to give us bimetallism In the sense
used In the United States , with gold and sli
ver coined and circulating sldo by side. Will :
us It Is coin and paper. Instead of gold ani !
silver , and we expect to make our paper at
good as our gold. ' '
BANKERS GOT WHAT WAS LEFT.
Senor Mendonca was asked concerning thf
popular featuris.of the recent loan.
"Tho government was careful to give everj
advantage to the peopleat large In prefer
cnco to the bankers , " Raid he. "Within threi
days of the time notice had been given of th <
loan It had been subscribed. It wns for $50 , '
000,000 , but the subscriptions Inside ot threi
days reaclrd $04,000,000. Of this amoun
private Individuals put In subscription !
amounting to $21,000,000. Instead of maklni
a pro rata allowance between the Individual !
and bankers the government gave the fill
$24,000,000 of bonds subscribed by Individuals
leaving the banks to take a pro rata amoun
of the balance. "
"As a rul ? the Rothschilds are the banker ;
of Brazil , " continued the minister , "but It
thin last Instance the confidence In the gov
ernment was so strong at home that there wai
no need of going abroad for money. Thi
Rothschilds and all other financial homes an
ready at any time to take the bonds of Brazl
under a somewhat peculiar system which w
have. Thus the government Is always sup
piled with ready cash , and the1 scrip Is takei
up as fast as the customs and other revenue
are realized. The bankers never have causi
for Hn'aslnesi , becausa Brazil has never beei
a day late In paying an obligation. "
Senor Mendonci has recently received ad
vices concerning the annual meeting In Lon
don ot the directors of the London & Brazl
bank. Ho regards the meeting as Importan
In bringing out the fact that financiers wh
are Intimately acquainted with th ? Interna
affairs of Brazil attach no Importance at a )
to the alleged rebellion said to exist In southern
orn Brazil , and to the continued reports of ai
attempt to overthrow the present admlnlstra
tlon.
tlon.Senor
Senor Mindonca was asked as to the recen
report of United States Minister Buchanan t
the fid to department to the effect that Sout
American merchants were unable to secur
bills of exchange on New York because- th
fear among South American bankers that th
United States wan on the eve of a sllve
crisis , which would prevent the honoring c
these bills In gold.
"I regard that report with Interest , " sal
the minister , "and was much surprised by II
It Indicates that there Is great mlsappre
hctulon or lack ot Information among th
merchants or bankers , As a matter of fac
they tired have no fear whatever that a bl
of e-xchange on New York will not bo Jionore
In gold. It Is the Invariable custom to pa
these billy In gold , even If a gold paymen
Is not specified. The mere mention of th
word dollar In the bill of exchange would 1 :
sufficient to Insure gold payment. "

WASHINGTON , May 10. The condition In
which the Delaware senatorshlp was left by
the adjournment of the legislature ot that
state yesterday Is regarded with especial
Interest In senatorial circles. It Is believed
that the cape wilt present aspects that are
unique In the history of the senate. It Is
held by some persons that the outcome of
the contest may prevent the organization ot
the senate by the republicans at the begin
ning ot the next session , as the democrats
may find It to their Interest to continue In
control of the committees as long as pos
sible. The Delaware question would be re
ferred to the committee on privileges und
elections , ot which Senator Gray of Delaware
Is now chairman. In cas3 of a purely
partisan contest the control of this committee
might be ot no llttlo Importance to the
democrats.
Senator Morgan of Alabama , In discussing
the question , bald : "The action of ihe gov
ernor will be of Importance In determining
the course of the senate when the question
ot seating Mr. Dupont shall come up for
consideration. The law requires a certificate
f election from the governor and while I
o not feel that I know sufficient of the
'acts ' In this case to express a positive
pinion 1 should Imagine the presumption
ould be against a man who should apply
o be sea'ed without presenting such evidence
if the validity of his claims. I know ot
ut one Instance In which the senate has
eated a man In the absence of a certificate
f election from the governor and that was
n the case of Senator Conkllng , whose
crtlficate failed to arrive on one occasion
11 tlmo for the organization of the senate ,
n that case , however , Mr. Conkllng's elec-
'on was undisputed and there was a telegram
aylng that the certificate was on the way to
iVashlngton.
"The only way In which the Delaware
.emocrats can legitimately secure a hearing
n the senate Is for Governor Watson to cp-
iolnt a senator on the theory that the lugls-
ature bad adjourned without electing , ami
his , I presume , he would do , In that event ,
n all probability , there would ba a close
ontest. I have differed from many of my
emocratlc colleagues in holding that unJer
uch circumstances the governor of a state
iad a right to appoint , and that when I.e
Id appoint It was the duty of the senate to
leat the appointee. This was the question
nvolved at the beginning of the Fifty-third
nngrcss In the case of the appointments
rom Washington , Montana and Wyoming ,
ml I then took a position In favor of aeat-
ng these men. You will remember , however ,
hat the verdict of the senate was against
hem. "

DEATH BY HIS OWN HAND.

John Cnrrlgnn Tnk i IIIi 1-1 fc.
John Carrlgan , a well known amateur base
> Jll player , committed suicide by shooting
ilmself In the right ear early yesterday.
The deed was committed at Carrlgan's home ,
2510 Ohio street , and before the eyes of his
wlfo and child.
As nearly as can be ascertained the suicide
was the result of Carrlgan' * dismissal from
ho service of Allen Bros1. , wholesale grocers ,
which occurred last Saturday night.
Just a week ago yesterday three of the em
ployes of the firm \ \ ere .arrested . by local de
tectives' and charg.d with petty embezzle
ments. As the trio left thaatore In company
with the officers who .tqrred the warrant
Carrlgan stepped up to netof them and en-
lolned him to "keep hh month shut. " This
was obs.rved by a member tot the firm , who
told Carrlgan that ho evidently was not actIng -
Ing In the Interests of his employers and that
ho might go upstairs and get his pay. Car
rlgan claimed that he had > warned the pris
oner because he was a member of ths same
lodge of Woodmen to which he belonged , but
this explanation was not satisfactory , and
when Saturday night came he was formally
discharged.
Since then Carrlgan seemed to be much
affected by his discharge. He seemed tc
think that ho was under a cioud ami that he
was suspected of being concerned In the steal
ing. He worried over It for several days and
It Is claimed that he drank heavily. It was
nearly 2 o'clock yesterday morning when he
reached his home. Instead of going to beJ ,
he sat down at the kitchen table and began
to write. Ilia wife was awake and asked
him why ho did not go to bed. He said that
he would If she would take off his collar and
necktie , as they wore choking him. She rom-
piled and had scarcely returned to bed when
she heard the report of the pistol. Carrlgan
had fallen on the floor and the flow ot blood
showed that the bullet had entered his right
ear. Ho soon expired and Coroner Maul was
notified.
On the table was found the letter whlcr ,
Carrlgan had been writing , and which ac
counted for the deed. It was Incoherent Ir
composition and Indicated that he was elthoi
much excited , or out of his head. H was
written on the back of an agreement for the
organization of the Anhcuser-Biuch Base Ball
club , of which ho was a member , and was :

MARDI GRAS FLOATS COMING TO OMAHA

Mondiimln" Hurliiff i'olr AVeok.
As soon as It was settled that the state
fair had been located In Omalm the business
men and the members of the Commercial
club commenced to plan for street attractions
that would glvo the visitors to the fair the
worth of their money , providing they wanted
to come to town and spend the night after
the daily closing of the gates at the fair
grounds.
Many meetings were held and many plans
for furnishing amusement were discussed , and
at last It was decided In the event that funds
could be secured , to purchase the floats used
In the MardI Qras parade at New Orleans.
Some parties tried to throw cold water upon
the scheme by declaring that to buy the floats
would require an expenditure of at least
$20,000 , and that so large a sum of money
could not be raised. At this time Major
Wllcox and W. R. Dennett jumped Into the
arena and expressed themselves In a most
forcible manner , urging that double that
amount ot money could be raised It It was
necessary. The statement had the desired
effect and a soliciting committee was ap
pointed to go out Into the wholesale- and re
tail districts of the city. This committee
went to work with a will and It was not
long ere the , JulU amount was subscribed.
The committee ! having been successful , a
public meeting was held and by a unanimous
vote It was decided to buy the twenty-one
floats which were used In the last MardI
Gras parade at the Crescent City , In the
event that their condition was as had been
represented.
Before the adjournment of the public meetIng -
Ing It was decided to send a committee to
New Orleans to examine Into the condition
of the floats and negotiate with the parties
by whom they were owned. The committee
was made up at that time and consisted of
the following business men of the city :
Dudley Smith , W. R. bennett , E. M. Uart-
lett , H. D. Kooser and G. A. Rer.ze , who
were given authority to purchase and close
all contracts looking to the buying of the
street attractions. Ten days ago these men
left for New Orleans and a few days later
they telegraphed that they had closed the
contract for the purchase of all of the floats.
Since then all of the members of the commit
tee , with the exception of Mr. Rcnze , have
returned , he having remained to see that the
floats were loaded on the cars.
Thursday night a telegram was received frpm
Mr. Renzo to tfio cffec'i ' that the floats had
been shipped over the Missouri Pacific road.
With no bad luck they -vlll arrive In Omaha
about next Wednesday , when the work of
repainting and reglldlng will be commenced.
To transport the floats to this city re
quires a train of fifteen cars. Each float Is
15x35 feet In dimensions and each will b3
mounted upon flvo large wheels. H will
require four horses to pull each of these
gilded pictures of magnificence.

I.oulR Arnold Arrr ted After Heine Trucked
Ac rum the Occnn mill Duck.
SAN FRANCISCO , May 10. Louis E.
Arnold , a member of the defunct and notori
ous West Coast Plumbing Supply company ,
Is behind the bars at the city Jail. The po
lice have been looking for Arnold for two
years , having trailed htm constantly since
that time , even across the Pacific ocean and
back. He was caught In a lodging house In
this city yesterday. Ho was recently In
dicted for felony and embezzlement.
After the organization of the company flvo
years ago It was represented to have $100,000
capital , though It really had only $16,000.
Louis E. Arnold , the manager and vice presl
dent of the company , was sent east and
bought a largo line of fine plumbing supplies ,
all of standard make and readily worth their
value In cash , being about $31,000 , from well
known houses.
The bills ot lading came within a week
after Arnold's return and were hypothecated
with banks and money lenders. The pur
chase of goods was settled by four months
notes due In August , 1893. A week before the
notes were due the firm failed. The sheriff
could find no assets. At the same time
Arnold disappeared and with him all the
books , correspondence and other papers of the
firm.
It Is said that there Is ample proof that
$37,000 In gold coin passed through the com
pany's hands within sixty days prior to the
maturity of their paper , but that not a dollar
was devoted to the payment of the creditors
and goods. '

Impression In speculative circles Is that tho-
