THE RIO REVOLT.
Contradictory Reports and Nothing
Official Known.

New York, Sept flames A. Schrym-
ser, president of the Mexican telegraphic
cable, received a dispatch from Buenos
Ayres this morning that the morning pa
pers of that city reported that there had
been a revolt against the government at
Rio de Janeiro on the part of the Brazilian
naval feet, but that the MontevideO pa
pers declare tae reports lacked conhrma-
tion. Private advices to Mr.. Schrymser,
however, from correspondents whom he
regards as well informed, confirmed the
report of the revolt.
ONLY RIO CUT OFF, IT Is SAID.
From the agent of the company at Gal
weston information was received that dis
patching to any part of Brazil except Rio
de JaneriO would be admitted by the gov
ernment. Mr.. Schrymser inferred from
this that the trouble was thus far con-
fined to Rio He said he had no fears for
the company's property in Brazil, and
| that so far as the revolutionary troubles
go, they rather helped than hindered
business.
GENERAL UNCERTAINTY OF REPORTS.
, r. st. G. Walker, superintendent of the
| coffee exchange, said he had received a
cable despatch from the London CORES
pondent of the exchange saying that the
cable was in the hands of the Brazilian
authorities and that communication from
| that country had been entirely shut off
Mr.. Walker said the interruption Of inter-
communication with Brazil must tend to
| injure the coffee trade every day it lasted,
und sthat if it continued any length of
| time II would intlict serious damage.
