oId-Fa.hioned Gale at Bunaio.

BUFFALO, N. Y., Nov. 25.-An old time rainstorm struck Buffalo little before o'clock.

First the rain came down gently, then a hurricane seemed to strike the town like cannon-ball, blowing the rain i'm to clouds of mist. There was a verit- able panic on the streets. Women screamed for help. They could not move against the storm, it was so strong. Horse-cars were forced to standstill because the horses could not face the terrific wind.

 an Uprising.

an Uprising.
 LONDON, Nov. 25 A dispatch just received from Rio de Janeiro says that Da Fonseca has resigned in favor of Floriano Peixotte.
 LONDON, Nov, 23.-Intelligencc has just been received here that revolu- tion broke out in Rio de Janeiro to-day. The object is the overthrow of Da Fonseca.
 Later dispatches from Rio de Janeiro brought the intelligence that the oppo- sition to Dictator Fonseca had gath cred sufficient force to break through thu barriers erected by the govern ment to hold it in check and to make itself master of the situation No de- tails have yet been received as to the precise methods adopted. All that is known is that the uprising was so formidable that Fonseca considered it impossible longer to maintain his as- cendancy and surrendered his au- thority.
 In retiring, or "resigning," as he called it, he declared that he did so in favor of Floriano Pexiotto, the vice president or vice-chief of the provisional government of which Fonseca was the head. Whether the opposition will be content to allow Peixotto, about whom little is known here, to assume the leadership of State is not known. It is not believed that he will be permitted to act as chief executive, even tenn porarily, unless he is in sympathy with the ideas and principles of the leaders of to-day's revolutionary movement.
 The instruction seems to have been we'll planned and to have many adher- ants. The streets are filled with armed mobs, and the military are deserting the government. All is tumult and confusion. Foreign residents are en- deavoring to leave the city. No par ticular-s are vet Obtaina ble,
