15f.hi.in, April 11.—Dispatches re--
ceived from Rio de Janeiro state some
serious fighting is taking place at Rio
Grande do Sul, and that an important
naval battle may shortly be expected.
Five of the insurgent warships ar - bom-
barding Rio Grande do Sul, and the forts
there are replying- with but little ef-
fect. The Brazilian government has
dispatched a fleet of ten war ships to
the south, with instructions to engage
the rebel fleet at the earliest opportu-
nity. Porto Allegre is also said to be
seriously threatened by the insurgent
forces landed hv Ira. He Mello.

EQUITIES TO BE INVESTIGATED.
An Allrgrd Attempt to Mulct tho <invoru-
lueut -A Helmut lonal Case l.lkoly
to Up Kfiipenoil by the
Investigation.
Washington, April 11.—At the meet-
ing of the sub-committee on Indian af-
fairs in charge of treaties it was de-
cided yesterday to ratifv the sale of the
Kiowa, Comanche and Apache land,
and a sub-committee consisting of Cur-
tis, of Kansas, and Maddox, of Georgia,
was appointed to investigate the claims
of the Chickasaws and Choctaws for
an equity in the lands. This investiga-
tion will reopen one of the most sensa-
tional cases which the Indian country
has ever furnished. If the claims of
the Chickasaws and Choctaws hold
good, the price of the land to the gov-
ernment will be increased from 80 cents
to f-.05 an acre. The equities claimed
by the Chickasaws and Choctaws are
the fame as those in the Cheyenne and
Arapahoe reservations, which were al-
lowed by congress,vetoad by President
Harrison and subsequently passed over
the president's veto.
It was charged at that time, and sub-
sequent developments have tended to
strengthen the belief in the minds of
some, that this claim was the result of
an attempt to mulct the government
aud was a gigantic steal, as any ad-
ditional claim will have to be paid by
the settlers who take the land. An ef-
fort will be made to prevent allow-
ance of the Choctaw equity claim and
the sub-committee will sift the case to
the bottom The equity claim is one-
halt'larger than the price which it is
proposed to pay for the lands, the
Choctaws and Chickasaws claiming
11.25 an acre.
In 1855 the Choctaws and Chickasaws
gave the government a ninety-nine
year lease on the laud for 1700,000, and.
in 18(10, for $300,000 additional, ceded
all right and interest in it to the gov-
ernment According to the conditiou
of those who will tight to prevent an
additional obligation being placed on
the settlers, accorditig to the attorneys
for the Choctaws, their equity in the
lan.ds was never surrendered. The
government plaeod other Indians on
the lands, and not until an attempt
was inade to open it up to settlement
was the claim of the Indians to an
equity known. r
Twice or. attempt has been made to
have an investigation made, but it has
been hushed up. Several senators and
representatives have been suspected of
receiving big fees out of the old case.
The new deal now proposed is open to
the same charges. The conditions are
identical and the same possibilities of-
fered the lobbyists who made $1,000,000
out of it.

Washington, April ti.—There was
a very small attendance in the galleries
when the seuate convened yesterday,
and there was scarcely a quorum of
senators visible. The bill introduced
some time ago by Senator Pefifor for
the improvement of publio roads was
reported back adversely by Senator
Kyle. Mr. Quay introduced a resolu-
tion, objection to the consideration of
which was made by Senator Cockrcll,
that the senate should hold a session
on Saturday, April 31, from 1 o'clock,
to hear a committee of the organiza-
tions of the workinginen of the United
States in opposition to the tariff bill.
A resolution was introduced by Sen-
ator Allen, of Nebraska, requesting tho
secretary of the interior to inform the
senate of the name* and post oftlee ad-
dress of all pensioners of tho govern-
ment whose pensions had been sus-
pended or cancelled since March 4,
1898, and tho reason for such suspen-
sion or cancellation. Senator Cockrcll
objected to its present consideration,
and under the rules it went over with-
out action.
The Wolcott resolution for the coin-
age of Mexican dollars at the United
States mints was laid before the sen-
ate, and Mr. Gallinger read n resolu-
tion favoring it The resolution was
briefly debated, when Senator McPher-
son withdrew the amendment offered
by him to insert the words "for ex-
port," as ho thought the Sherman
amendment agreed to covered the
points of his proposed amend men L
The resolution as amended was then
agreed to, and is as follows:
Resolved, That the president of the United
States, with a view to encourage and extend
<ftir oommeroial relations with China aud otlx-r
Asiatic countries, bo requested, If not Incom-
patible with tho public interests, to enter into
negotiations with the republic of Mexico, look-
ing to the oolnage. by the United States, at
the mints, of staudar.l Mexican dollars, undi>r
some agreem-nt with tho said republic of
Mexico as to selgnlorugj, mothoi and amount
of said coinage, and that ho be further re-
qu< stud to report the result of his negotiations
to the nenate.
Notice was given by Senator McPher-
son, of New Jersey, that next Monday,
as soon as the tariff bill shall be taken
up, Senator Smith, of New Jersey,
would address the senate.
The resolution of Senator Allen to
limit general debate on the tariff bill
to June 4, and to take the final vote on
June 5, was la id* be fore tho senate. Mr.
Allen adVoeated the resolution, when
Mr. Cockrell proposed an amendment,
which was accepted by Mr. Allen, that
general debate should cease April 30
and the vote should be taken May 14.
Senator Chandler suggested as an
amendment that general debate should
cease on November 33, which gave rise
to some ironical comments from the
democratic side.
Senator Aldrieh then moved the ref-
erence of the resolution to the commit-
tee on rules, which was agreed to.
Two o'clock arrived, tho tariff bill
was laid before the senate, and Mr.
Lodge spoke in opposition to it lie
concluded his speech at 4:o0.
Senator Hoar sprang a sensation by
stating that he wished to make a
speech, which he would have read
from the desk. He thereupon sent up
a press bulletin, stating the New York
legislature had passed a resolution of
thankR to Senator Hill for his speech in
opposition to the tariff bilL This was
greeted with some npplause in the gal-
lery, which the vice president checked.

Oodf.v, Utah, April 11.—Oov. Waito,
of Colorado, wired < en. Kelly yester-
day at Ogden that his industrial array
could stop and pass through Colorado.
But Gov. West, of Utah, notified Kelly
that his men would be forced to return
west if they refused to go of their own
motion. Kelly submitted the matter
to his men, who refused, with but one
dissenting vote. Kelly's men said they
knew what it would be to tramp through
the mountains and suffer hardship if
they could not ride. Thoy cheered
(Jov. Waite and CJen. Kelly, who ap-
pears naturally conservative and is a
good speaker.
Encouraging words were received
from (ien. Kelly's wife; 2,000 loaves of
bread, 1,000 pounds of beef, potatoes,
etc., were contributed by the Ogden
Cha ity society, ami everybody waited
to see what tlov. West would do.
The governor and Superintendent
ICnnpp, of the Southern Pacific, had a
series of interviews, ending in Knapp's
refusing to haul the army back with-
out payment of $85 for each person, the
regular fare. Knapp said if he at-

property, but. West said he would at-
tend to that. Knapp then sought in-
spiration from General Superintendent
Fillmore at San Francisco, and was
told the road would see what could bo
done.
Mayor IJrough, of Ogden, has ordered
n carload of provisions, enough to last
the array to the Nevada border. A

Washington. April 11.—There was a
question when the house met yesterday
is to the order of business. An at-

Mr. Heed urged the house must pro-
eed to vote on the motion to dis-
charge the warrants issued to
the sergeant at-arms under tho
(solution of March 19 for
the absentees. The motion came over
from last Saturday. Mr. Reed contend-
ed that the house presented an unseem-
ly spectacle, as members were under
threat of arrest, aud that the report of
the sergeant-at-armsshould be disposed
of as a matter of privilege affecting its
members. Finally, by agreement, it
was decided to allow the whole subjeet
to go over until to-day.
