Movements of Gov. Cleveland.
BUFFALO, Nov. 3.-Gov. Cleveland ar
rived here this morning at 1855. The
Governor quietly strolled to his usual
breakfasting restaurant, where, after par
taking of a hearty meal, he repaired to his
rooms over his Office, and later, at about
10 O'Clock, was at his desk in his law Office.
1t was expected that the Governor would
arrive this afternoon, and preparations
have been made to give him q reception.
About IL o'clock he left his Office and
strolled leisurely up to the Tiff House.
He was attired in a handsome suit OF black
broadcloth, and appeared in the very best
of health and in excellent spirits. He
frequently stopped on the sidewalk to
chat Familiarity for a moment or two with
some friend. An Associated Press reporter
interviewed him, and in answer to q ques-
ton 40 to his health, he said: l am in
most excellent health. l am more than
pleased TO be at my old home again. He
stated that the most cheering news came
from most every quarter, and the pros
poets for the success of the Democratic
ticket he considered first-rate. In answer
to what he thought about the State of New
York, he declined to give an opinion, and
referred the interviewer to Mr.. McCune,
who, he said, could better answer that
question than himself. The Governor did
not seem to be DESTROYS Of continuing the
subject. At the coming election he will
probably remain here until Tuesday noon,
and will then vote at his old polling place
at the Ninth Ward.
Coast FORTH cations.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Gen. John New
ton has submitted his annual report Of
the Coast Defences. He earnestly urges
that the harbors Of our principal seaports,
be made impregnable to attack, by the
addition Of guns Of heavy calibre, and all
the appliances known to modern warfare.
Past events, he says, by no means justify
the assertions made that our cotton and
| grain have become so necessary to the
nations that they could not engage in q war
with the United States for q short period
| without interrupting their supplies Of these
articles. It seems to be forgotten that q
descent upon our coast, to hold our unpro-
tected cities under the guns Of Q hostile
feet would consume but q few months, and
In the meantime cotton and grain could be
obtained elsewhere. The modern system
Is 70 make q war sudden, sharp and
decisive, and to make the beaten
party pay the expenses. The Board
Of Engineers for Notifications has
prepared an Appropriated estimate Of the
coast Notifications, including ornaments
OF modern heavy gums and rifed mortars
for Portland, Boston, New York, Phila-
delphia. Baltimore. Hampton Roads, New
Orleans and San Francisco, and another
estimate, likewise approximate, for pre-
liminary works for earths and masonry,
without armor, machinery and guns, to
serve as implements for guns. The total
estimate, including armament, is $53, 49,
600. The estimate for implements, ex-
| Guiding armor, guns and machinery, is
$40. 1856, 900. These estimates have been
made with care, and IL is believed the
Notifications, including guns for all the
harbors on the coast, OF sufficient i'm
portance to tempt IN enemy, can be
prepared ct . cost Of not to exceed $780,
000. 900. The following estimates are re-
quired for 1885. and are made for the
defense Of Boston harbor, $3.50, 900; New
York harbor. 81, 100, 900; Philadelphia,
$132. 600; Baltimore, S132. 900; Hampton
Roads, $50, 900; San Francisco, 5000, 200;
modification of the existing forts and bat
t%eries, $500, 900; preservation Of fortifica-
tons. $175. 900; purchase Of submarine
mines, $500, 900; easements, etc., S200, 900;
torpedoes. $50, 900.
