Foreign Reds Said to Haye Laid Plot
to Destroy Vessels at Rio de
Janeiro.
Rio Janeiro, Jan. 20.—Tbe Brazilian
police have discovered an anarchistic
plot here having as its object the de-
struction of part of the American fleet
now lying in the harbor. The con-
spiracy, while centering in Rio de
Janeiro and Petropclis, has ramiflca-
tipns in Sao Pauln and Minas Geraes.
An individual named Jean Fedher,
who resided, in Petropolis, was tbe
chief conspirator here, although it is
understood that foreign anarchists are
deeply Involved in the plot. Fedher
is believed to have fled to Sao Paulo,
and police Who know him* have been
sent to that place (or the purpose of
apprehending him.
Ae yet the people of Brazil are ig-
norant of the details of the plot to
do injury to the visiting warships
though there bas been some slight
Inkling of tbe matter. The impres
sion which the exposure of this plot
will "Create here will be a profound
one, because It Is the first anarchistic
conspiracy that has%ven been known
In Brazil.
The police of Sao Paulo have sent
word that they are on the track of
the malefactors, who, theg declare,
will not be able to come to Rio de

Longview, Tex., Jan. 17. — Alex
Walker, a negro, yesterday afternoon
at 2:10 o’clock, walked into the Citi-
zens National Bank, ordered the bank-
er® to leave the piace, and began
shooting with a revolver, and as a
result of wounds during a fusillade
of shots is probably in a dying condi-
tion at the jail.
Another negro, whose name Walk-
er gave the officers, disappeared when
the shooting began, and is being pur-
sued by a posse. Two negro women,
with whom Walker and the other ne-
gro haul associated, are being held by
the officers.
SherifT Little was near the bank
when the shooting began and ran in-
the place and onto Walker, who at
that time was shooting from the rear
end of the counter.
’ X. J. Everett, lR-esldent of the bank,
at an opportune time sprang on the
negro and took the pistol from him.
During the struggle the revolver held
by the negro was discharged and a
bullet passed through Mr. Everett’s

The powder ignited Mr. Everett’s

During the struggle Assistant Cash-

ers were shooting.
The negro fell at the door of the
bank vault, with five bullets in him
and begged for mercy. He was hur '
ried to the jail through the crowds
that were clamoring to take him into
their hands, and the officer® succeed-
ed in placing Walker in the prison
only because of statements from a doc-
tor that the negro was In a dying
condition. Walker received a bullet
in the right hip, one in the right

Plot to Use Mails as a Liquor
Carrier.
Washington, Jan. 18. — Representa-
tive Sims of Tennessee discovered a
man whom he knew to be the legis-
lative agent of distilling interests, in
the Balcony of the House. Mr. Sims
recalled that he had seen thi3 man
several times during the consideration
of the bill to revise and codify the pen-
al statutes.
The codification bill is a most im
portant but at the same time a most
uninteresting subject of legislation. No
one who can escape ever listens to
the discussion.
“There must be a nigger in the wood
pile,” thought Mr. Sims, and no soon-
er did he say it than he began to
explore the wood pile, which, in this
case, was tbe huge codification bill.
It was a long, tedious search. Sev-
eral sections were ransacked, but no
suspicious circumstances discovered.
After a while he came to the section
which describes what shall be non-
mailable.
He discovered that the section had
been copied faithfully, except for the
omission of the words “and liquids,”
so that if the section had beep re-
enacted with this omission, whiskey,
if properly packed, would have been
mailable matter.
Mr. Sims thought it perhaps was due
to inadvertence, until, looking into an-
other section, he discovered that words
had been inserted which made it man-
datory on the Postmaster General to
prescribe regulations for packing that
would have left him no discretion as
to the carrying of whiskey In the
mails.
Every rural and star route would
have been an agency- of distribution.
The saction in which it was sought to
make this revision of the laws had
not been reached. Mr. Sims rose and
warned the House.
A suit was brought to an abrupt
end a few days since in New York
City by one of the jurors pulling off
