WAsHINGToN, Aug %. Very little
credence is given by members of the ad-
ministration here to the reported selection
of Gen. William Wells, Of Burlington, Vt,
as Secretary of War to succeed Mr.. PROD
tor. The impression still prevails that
Ex-Governor Cheney is the man the Presi-
dent is thinking about the most seriously
at the present time, but the officials of
the War Department having close rela-
tions with Secretary Proctor do not believe
that any one has yet been actually slated
for the position.

VALPARAISO, Chilli via Galveston, Aug.
90 -Balmaceda's power in Chill is
broken.
His army has been crushed after five
hours hard fighting, and is scattered be-
yond all hope of reorganization. The
revolutionists have taken possession Of
Valparaiso.
The future of Chilli for the time has
been settled, and settled conclusively on
the hillsMo the east of this city by the
grim arbitrament of war.
With Balmaceda practically fugitive
without resources in men or money; with
the principal seaports of the country in
the hands of the Congressionalists and
q consequent shifting off of all income
from customs receipts; with President
elect Vicuna a refugee on board a Ger
man war ship, and the country flocking
en- masse to the standard of the invaders
it is a matter of only a few days when the
capital will fall into the hands of the
revolutionary party.

new government, with possibly Judge
Belisario Prats, head of the last Parlia-

Jose Irarrazaval, head of the Congress
Cabinet, at its head, will be formed and
things will 60 along in about the same
way in Chill as they did before January Z
when hostilities were formally begun.
General Canto and his army won the
battle by superior generalship, good
hard fighting, assisted by good fortue in
the killing of Balmaceda's generals and
the consequent Generalization of the army
and the desertion of entire regiments.
Five Hours of Battle.
The fighting lasted little less than five
hours, and its desperate character may be
judged by the fact that fully five thou
sand men were killed and wounded. The
country for miles around is filled with
men, many of them wounded, who were

ceda.
Balmaceda Runs Away.
Nobody here has any knowledge of the
whereabouts of President Balmaceda
The insurgent leaders are exceedingly
anxious to find out where he is, and if
they succeeded in finding him it would go
hard with him.
The general belief here is that he is

CALCUTTA, Nov. 10-Further details
regarding the cyclone which passed over
this part of India Monday of last week
show that the damage done was very ex.
tensive.
Beside the loss of seventy-seven lives.
occasioned by the sinking of the India,
Government steamer Enterprise, which
was 1oundered at the Andalnan Islands,
and the killing of sixty convicts, there
has been large loss of life at other places
along the coast.
AdVlces from various parts of Orissa, q
province in Bengal, state that cyclone
passed over that section of country and
did great damage. The cyclone cleared
path through the forests. uprooting gi-
gantlc trees and hurting them aside as
though they were reeds. No house could
stand the terrible energy of the gale,
and every dwelling or other structure
within the path of the cyclone was either
swept from its foundations or turned
over.
The wind also did much damage below
Calcutta. AS is well known, the HooeIy
kdver is the natural outlet for the trade of
the Ganges and the Brahmapootra. The
city. OF Calcutta is situated on the east
bank OF the Hoogly River, which is the
westernmost branch of the Ganges. The
Hoogly River empties into the Bay Of
Bengal through number of mouths,
and large number of vessels
were at anchor off these mouths.
They were in such a position that when
the gale suddenly burst it was impossible
to save many of them. Numbers dragged
their anchors and were carried ashore,
and others were damaged by the pound
ing they received by the enormous seas
which accompanied the storm No esti-
mate can yet be made of the total loss of
life, but it will be very large.

plains that the labels of the order are
