ing and importing route, it will
swell the national commerce. We
urge that our foreign diplomats and con

with this movement as far as proper.
Col. Avery has conferred with all of the
southern and western senator's, besides
many of the northern senator's, and found

FIRE AND EXPLOSION.
Ten Men injured, Several of Them
Probably Fatally.

Chicago, Sept. 23.-The large malt
house of w. H. V. Purcell Company was
destroyed by fire this evening. Soon af-
ter the flames were discovered an explo-
sion shattered part of the main build
ing, and ten men were injured, several
of them fatally. The cause of explosion
is not known, but it is supposed to have
come from dust and hot air.
THERE WAS NO ESCAPE,
1t came from room into which the
firemen had not penetrated. They were
working near it, however, and the falling
wall and great tongues of flame which
shot from the wrecked portion of the
building gave them no oppor-
tunity to escape. The build
ing was almost entirely de-
stroyed, and the loss upon it is ETH
mated at SO, 900. The loss on the barley
aDd malt stored in the building is esti-
mated at S467 600 All losses are COM

Each Account from the Brazilian
Capital Varies from the others.
London, Sept. GA dispatch this
morning from Rio de Janeiro has been re-
ceived by the Exchange Telegraph Com
pany. The message states that the sen
ate was in session at the time of the filing
of the dispatch, and negotiations for
peace were proceeding between the gov
ernment and Admiral Mello, the COM
mander of the rebel naval forces. If
these negotiations fail of a successful is
sue it is feared that the rebel feet will
lay the city in ashes.
sYMPATHIzERs ON SHORE.
1t is known that the rebels have many
adherents in the city. though the govern
ment cannot place its hands upon them.
They. il is claimed, were surreptitiously
giving aid and comfort to the govern
ment's enemies. The dispatch added that
President Peixotto is haunted with the
dread of being assassinated by some of
those secret enemies.
Every movement on board the war
ships is anxiously watched from the
shore. The poorer class of people fear
that at any moment the BON bardment
may recOmmence, having little faith that
the government will be able to induce
Admiral MellO to accept anything IN the
way Of compromise They believe that
the only alternative to unconditional sur
render is bonn bardment
MELLO HESITATEs
1t may be, however, that the negotia-
tions now in progress will result in some
satisfactory solution of the troubles The
very fact that Admiral Mello is willing
to negotiate is taken by the more iutelli-
gent residents as evidence that he hesi-
tates to put his threat to vigorously bonn
bard the city into execution. Three days
have elapsed since Admiral Mello sent
mis- ulJimatum TO the government, and
as yet he has not attempted to
carry out the threat contained in that
document The excitement in the city
shows little if any sign of subsistence.
Every one who could possibly do 50 has
left the city, and will remain away until
quiet is restored. 1t is understood that
assurances have been given that In the
event of the city being bOmbarded the
rebel feet will endeayor to spare the
