The Rebel Fleet Spends Sunday in Drop.
ping Shells Into the BGSieg9d City.

LONDON, Oct. "a private cable mes
sage received in this city to-day an
nounces that the rebel fleet at Rio de
Janeiro reopened fire upon the Brazil
ian capital yesterday morning, and that
the bombardment was continued
throughout the day. The same cable
states that though the foreign min
listers at Rio, backed up by
the commanders OF the foreign
war vessels at Rio, have for
Il long time past done everything
possible to avert further hostilities be-
tween the insurgents and the govern
ment forces, in spite of the fact that
these friendly efforts have been directed
continuously towards both sides in the
dispute, a failure to induce the opposing
factions to come to an agreement has re-
suited in more damage to Rio from the
rebel guns and in great loss of life.

A LETTER ON SILVER.
President Cleveland Again Makes Public His
Qninl0nS

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. Pin reply to Il
letter from Gov. Northern, asking the
President to give his position on tinan-
clal matters, Mr.. Cleveland sent the fol-
lowing letter:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, ID. c.,
Sept. a5.-To Hon w. j. Northern-MY DEAR
SIR: hardly know how to reply to your
letter OF the 10th inst. 1t seems to me that
am quite plainly on record concerning the
financial question. My letter accepting the
nomination to the presidency when read
III connection with the message lately sent
to Congress in extraordinary session, appears
to me 10 be very explicit. want currency
that Is stable and safe in the hands OF our
people. | will not knowingly be implicated
in a condition that will justly make me in
the least degree answerable to any laborer
or farmer in the United States for the
shrinkage IN the purchasing power of the
worth OF work, or Tor good dollars worth
OF the product OF his toll. | not only want
our currency to be of such a character that
all kinds OF dollars will be Of equal pur-
chasing power at home, but / want
them to be of such character
as will demonstrate abroad our wis
dom and good faith, thus placing upon
firm foundation our credit among the ma
lions OF the earth. want our financial con-
ditions and the laws relating to our cur
rencN SO SAFE ana fcaSSurlng that those who
have money will spend and invest it III bust
ness and new enterprises instead of hoard
ing It. \ on cannot cure fright by calling
1t foolish and unreasonable, and you can
not prevent the frightened man from hoard
ing his money. l want good, sound and
stable money, and a condition of conf
dence that will keep it in use. Within the
limits OF what have written, | am a friend
of silver, but | believe its proper place in
our currency can only be fixed by re-
adjustment OF our currency legislation and
prehensive financial scheme. | think such
a thing can only be entered upon protitably
and hopefully after the repeal of
the law, which is charged with all
our financial woes. In the present
state OF the public mind this law
cannot be built upon nor patched in such
way as to relieve the situation. | am,
therefore, opposed to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver by this country alone, and
Independently and ! am in favor of the inn
mediate and unconditional repeal of the
purchasing clause of the so-called Sherman
law. / confess | am astOnshed
by the opposition in the Senate to
such prompJ action as would relieve
the present unfortunate stuation My daily
prayer is that the delay Occasioncd by such
opposition may not be the cause of plung-
ing the country into deeper depression than
it has yet known, and that the Democratic
party may not be justly held responsible for
such a catastrophe. Yours very truly,
GROVER CLEVELAND.

BOMBS FOR THE FAIR.
Conspiracy Two Years Ago to Destroy Pub.
lie Buildings Comes to Light.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 29.-When
shown the cabiegram from Vienna to-
day regarding the Anarchists plots
there, the Chicago official who is in
this city said it was we'll known to
the Chicago secret service police that
Anarchists of Vienna, Paris and London
were III constant communication with
those of New York and Chicago. A
plot similar to that discovered by
the police in Vienna was unearthed
in Chicago year and half ago, but
nothing was ever said about it for fear
it might create a dynamite scare and
iniure the Worlds Fair. The reds
were arranging to blow up the city hall
ut Chicago and at the same time to blow
up several buildings then in course of
erection at the World Fair. Maj. Will
lam McClaughry, who was at that time
general superintendent of the Chicago
police, learned of the affair aud by Wig
orous action nipped it in the bud. One
Of his secret service men attended q
number of the Anarchist meet
ings on Clybourne Avenue and an
other group was covered by another
officer on West Lake Street. AT the
latter place woman fanatic on the sub
ject of Anarchsm volunteered to enter
the Council chambers during a meeting
of Chicag's Common Council and dis
charge big dynamite bomb. She said
she was willing to sacrifice her
cause, if by so doing she could de-
stroy the much hated city fathers.
At the Clybourne Avenue meeting,
which was acting in concert with the
one on West Lake Street, the plot was
being arranged to blow up the World s
Fair buildings. When Supt. McClaugh-
ry learned of these he put on an extra
force Of detectives and number of the
leaders were brought to his office"
Among the mass of information
gathered at that time were letters from
Partisan Anarchists which led to the dis
covery that the bombs used by Ravachol
in Rue Clitchy Paris were furnished by
the Anarchists Of Chicago. AS a
result, Maj. McClaughry opened COM
munication with NJ. Lozee, who was
then perfect of police of Paris. A sort
OF compact was then formed be-
Byrnes, of New York; the chief of
the Scotland Yard service and Maj
McCiaughry. 1t was arranged that
when any Of the Anarchistagitators left
Paris, London, New York or Chi
cago, M. Lozee was to cable the fact
to the chief of police whore the
Anarchist was going so that he
could be watched. Each of the
before mentioned cities was to
do the same for Paris and in
this way the Anarchists were to be
kept under surveillance. 1t was by
this compact that Maj. McClaughry was
notified Ct the fact that the Chicago
Anarchists had arranged to bring Prince
krapotkin, the Russian Anarchist of
London to Chicago, and he was enabled
to prevent his coming.
In conclusion the official from Chica-
90 said that Hampstead Washburne,
who was then mayor, found it necessary
to have detectives secreted about his
house on Astor Place for several months
during his term in Office, on account of
the threats made by the Anarchists to

Nashville Railroad along the coast are
