MnrrayHillHotel Grand Union Hotel. Cnpyrightod. 180:1. by the Associated Press. Pkosambcco, Brazil, Douombor 19 Since cabling you yestordny thore has boen considerable change ia the situation here.

Captain Bakor, who loft New York in oom maud of tho Nicthtroy, is no longer in charge of tho now Brazilian cruiser. The officer in chargo of hor now is Captain Alvaro Nunez, who was formerly in command of the Brazilian warship Kepublica and who is one of the now naval officers who remained loyal to President Polxoto. This change is a great disappointment to the American portion of the crow of the Nictheroy and has had a bad influence upon those who were Inclined to continue tho Btrike tor an in oreaso of wages upon regularly entering the Brazilian navy. The fact that Captain Nunez has assumed command of theNiotharoy has causod many of the Americans who were still hesitating as to whether they would or would not enter the Brazilian navy at tho same rate of wage as agreed upon in New York to decide upon returning to tne United States; thoy woro Serfactly willing to light uader Captain aker, but they are not so willing to fight under Captain Nunez. It is understood that strong Inducements aro being held out to Captain Baker In order to prevail upon him to serve as second in command under the Brazilian warship oaptain.

but the result is not generally known as this dispatch is sent, it seems certain, however, that a majority ef tho gun crews, which have been so successfully traisied since we left New York, will be prevailed upon, by increased wages and other inducements, to remain with tho Niothoroy, as it seems artmittod on nil sides that it would bo utterly impossible to secure Brazilians who would work the rapid lire guns, to say slothing of tho dj namito giiu, with anything like the ollleioncy displuyod by the American crews. As things look now, it appears likely that the ilromen and stokers, as woll as a number of able senmen and ordinary enmen, from New York, will bo replaced by Brazilians or others who can be picked up at this or other ports. Tho second piece of important nowa which the Associated press correspondent on board the Niothoroy has just received is to tho efToat that our consort, the America, lias arrived safoly at Marankoa, toe largest town and soa nort of tha stale of in tho northern portion of Brazil. We hear, Iiriylly, that nil is well on board the America, out wo have no particulars regarding the nrrci dent which happened to her. "The general opinion expressed hero is that tho accident in the engine room of tho Amriea was simply the ordinary disabling or ono of tho air pumps, and It Is not hero that thoro is any truth In the stories about Brazilian insurgent agents being on board of her or that anybody willfully did dumago to the machinery.

However, everybody is anxiously awaiting tho arrival of the America, which vessel is expected here to morrow, and. it is announced, the two vessels will almost immediately afterward sail for Bahia or somo other port to the south of whero the two cruisers (ixoect to raceivo delln Ite orders as to their future movements. It is currently reported hor thnt Admiral do Mello is as well informed concerning tho movements of the Nicthoroy and America as President Pelxoto himself. Just as I close this dispatch I hear a rumor that there is trouble among tho crew of the America similar to tho troitMn existing among tho crew of the Nii therov. Should this Ik tho case there may some further delay in the departure of the two cruisers southward, bnt we still expect to see tho America hen' tu morrow or the day after, at the latest, and shall fool very much more confident of suwi'ss when our consort is at anchor near us.

Throughout yesterday we won; taking on board provisions, water and coal of a diameter, apparently, very much inferior to what we shipped in New York. In any case, we expeet to be ready to sail southward so soon as our consort, the America, is reudv to proceed with us. As I havo already cablod you, all is (juiot here nnd not muoh is known concerning the situation of affairs nt Klo do Janeiro.

The acting hero was bettor than is often irpoaes. on can find here the day; but ho refused to hear anything of tb motion ns the order to show cause had been, granted by Judge Cullon. Then counsel ar proached Judge Cullen. but ho was engaged In the examination of tho grand jury drawn for the extraordinary session of oyer and terminer to pass upon tho alleged Grnvosend election frauds, and could not hoar counsel. At Urst sst 2:30 in the afternoon for tho argument.

was too busy then, however, and it was not until I o'clock thnt George W. Roderick and ex Judge Troy found aa opportunity of presenting to his honor a small portion of their reasons why stay should be grnnted. Colonel Albert E. Lamb and Jerry A. Wernberg, who have nppearsd for William J.

(iaynor. th plaintiff in tne case, wore on hand to oppose the motion. Edwnrn M. Shcpard and General B. F.

Tracy, reprasentatives of the pnople before the extraordinary oyer and terminer, were also on hand. it will ho remembered that John V. McKnns) and others wore adjudged to havo been guilty oi contempt bv Chief Justice Barnard of the supreme court in disregarding an injunction order on election day. The penalty Imposed was In each ease Hue of 6 jr.O and thirty dnvs in Jail, the full extent of the law. The defendant's, counsel filed a notice of appeal to tko genral term and pending that appeal obtained the present order to show cause why execution should not bo stayed until tho appeal might be heard and pasfed upon.

In opening his argument yesterday Mr. Roderick recited tho facts iu the affidavits upon which tho order wns granted; nflldavits published iu the E.uii.e on Saturday. Then ho went on to state thnt tho application for a stay was tlie usual one mado under suation 1,851 of the code. He rad in support of his position a decision by Justice Brady and then went onto suy that he could havo nppilud to uny judge ia the state ex pnrte: but that he had consented lo upply to Judge Cullen that the matter might bo argued without undue trouble to tho other side. He said that he intended, ia all good falto, to take tho case up to tho highest court In the state on appeal.

He held that it was not necessary to discuss tho merits oi the case or whether or no tho trial judge hud orred in bis decision. Then he proceeded to narrate) in detail somo of tho occurrences of election day tho visit of tbo liepublicun watchers to Gravescnd. He declared that it wns evident on the face of tho thing that the order of tho court had not been violatod in the slightest degree. He said that the ory of the other side was that service of the order had not been allowed by the defendants and thnt the person who went down, armed with the injunction, hud been put in jail. He read portions of Judge Barnard's opinion nnd declared that the caso had been entirely misapprehended by tha eourt.

Moreover, his main point wns that tha court had no jurisdiction in the premises. Mr. Roderick was followed by ex Judge Troy. "All that we ask hore, your honor." said Judg Troy, "is that we be given the right to have an appellate court pass on this question and decide whether there are not errors in the decision by whieh wo have boen adjudged in contempt. We most earnestly contend that the court had no right to issue an injunction iu tho premises that the proper prosoeding was by mandamus, aud mandamus alone.

A final injunction can not be grantad except after trial has been hud. And what offset would a judgment of this court havo had in an injunction proceeding, if issued weeks after election day, whan tne remedy sought could only havo been of any use or service? Tho only remedy in this case was by mandamus, and thnt was not what the court issued" "But are you not required to go as far as showing that the court was wrong in its judgment?" asked Judge Cullon. "Thnt is just what we do contend, your honor," was tao reply. Judge Troy had gone but a little further when the court adjourned for the day. who aro his foils, the graphically extravant ges SB Christmas or 1 IN WAflHINOTOM seen in grand opera.

"From a financial standpoint the fair was a failure," he declared, "but iu every way it was an artistic success nnd an idyll of beauty.

IV. HAMILTON GIBSOX'S LECTURE. Floxvcr and llunr itvy Receive Their Snaert (CiiestN. Mr. W.

Hamilton Gibson dolivorod a lecture lant night bofore tho members of tho Loug Island Historical society the hall on Piorrepout and Clinton streets on "Strange Mannar of Flowers in the lleeeption of Thoir Insect Guests." Tho hall was more than well lllled with nn intellectual appearing and attentive audience. Gibson's lecture was for tho purposo of illustrating tho manner which tho pollen of various flowers is carried from eno to another by insoets. He Urst showed some colored charts, showing in aa exceedingly Blmplo way the various parts ot tho llowers. The pistil, stamon, anther and tho location of tho nectar boiug tho parts to which he oalled particular attention. The charts which Mr.

Gibson used during his lecture were very interesting. Thoy wuro arranged something the same principle as tho charts used by lecturers on physiology, so that leavos turned over showing tho internal parts of tho Uowrs. They were colorod and sufficiently large to bo sen from the back of tho hall and were ingeniously arranged so as to show the incoming and outgoing of the insects, which were cut out of cardboard and made to enter nearly as natural as life. Mr. Gibson said that Kurt Sprengol had spent all his life or nearly all of it in trying to ilnd out how pollen is enrriod from ono flowor to another aud deposited on the stigma.

Iu tho iliscovori he made Sprengol became conviueud that tho pollen was carried from flower to flower in some way, but as tho pollen in some flowers was below the stigma and in others above it ho could not imagine what unknown agency conveyed the pollen from ono to tha other, for it seemed necessary to havo a different agency for nearly every llower. He was fifty years in finding out this mueb, and then he died, leaving to Ilarwln the honor of learning that the insoets were the busy littlo workers conveying tho pollen. The bees, tlie flies, the moths, all have thnt as ono of their missions in life. Mr. Gibson showed with his charts various varieties of different llowers with abnormal development of somo parts of qualities of IL He said that by the carryingvof the pollen of one to another of the same kind that tb peculiarities could be accentuated and almost a now kind of flowor secured.

He used the illustration of the evolution of all of tho dozens of kinds of pigeons from the rock dove to explain this, and showed by his charts tho results obtained by breeder of pigeons. By his charts ho showed how the bees, wasps and other insects enter tho llowers nnd receive tho pollen either upon their backs, necks or legs nnd thn fly to another flower folks blink.

She pitched into the Flatbush asylum as synonymous with bloodshed and horror. The'reinedy, she said, is that the state must tako charge of Kings oounty's asylums. Miss Maria A.

The people heroabouts seem somewhat unoenoerned as to the result. Loxdon, December Tho Times this morning publishes a letter from Bio Janeiro on Brazilian flnanoes. It says thnt the estimates adopted by congress for 1891 do not show a cheering prospect The expenditures on the army and navy are quite unjustilled by tho financial oondltion of the country, when it is considered that Brazil is in no danger of attack from tbo outsido, and that the present internal trouble, is mainly tho outcome of political intrigue, assisted by the army.

The estimate for tho loss on exchange on gold payments 13 largoly under rated. The estimates altogether are of little value. On account of the civil war the estimated deficit will be greatly exceeded. A complete reorganization of ttie administrative and llnaaeial methods of the government is absolutely necossary if national bankruptcy is to be averted. Probably the present obligations are ia excess of uny statements, us common report in lllo Janeiro credits Poixoto'fl government with having illegally issued milrois in treasury bank notes during the past year.

Nobody disputes the fact that Brazil has very reat resources and is capable of rapid development under good government, but suoh development needs encouragement of a kind which does not exist in the country under the present rejime.

There is perhaps no bettor thormometcr of tho comfort ot the working people than tho savings bunks. When work is plenty and money promptly paid each pay day tho thrifty workmen tako their savings to the banks and put thorn by for a rainy day. On the other hand, when times aro dull, tho deposits fall off largely, nnd as the conditions grow worse the drafts upon the money already deposltod lncroase. This is tho condition which now confronts the savings Institutions of Brooklyn. The hard times are being felt.

The drafts daily exoeod tho deposits by from SI. 000 to $2,000 in the larger banks. President Huntington of the Dime Savings bank said yesterday: "Comparing the presont situation with that which confronted us wnilo ngo, it does not seem like anything serious. It Bhowo, however, just how badly off many thrifty people are, for tliey are the ones who are causing the increaso in the drafts, and they have nothing to deposit."
