LONDON, Oct. 23.-The Times contains
dispatch from Sydney, Australia. stating
that Sanford Fleming, who recently left
canada, is visiting the Australian colonies,
with the view of submitting plans of four
possible routes for the proposed Pacific
cable from Australia to Canada He
proposed that the cable shall be owned by

the cost of working the line at f60,0
annually and considers that the rate might

PORTLAND, Me-, Oct. 23.-A case which
has attracted wide attention has been de-
cded in the United States court by Judge
Webb. When United States Marshal
George D. Bisbee went out of Office some
years ago, there was dispute with the
government about fees. Bisbee held about
81, 300 belonging to the government,
which he did not turn over, claiming that
the government owed him 81 800 for fees
which had been disallowed in Washington.
After trying to induce Bisbee to turn over
the amount, the officials in Washington
ordered legal proceedings against Bsbee.
They sued his official bond and attached
his real estate to the value of $25, 900 The
case has been pending since April 1891
Judge Webb gave a decision for the de-
fendant, finding, that the government owed
Bisbee more than he owed it.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-President and
Mrs. Cleveland are living more quietly
now than has ever before been possible for
them In this city. Outside Of working
hours, the white house sees very little Of the
president. Mrs. Cleveland still keeps to
her custom of either driving in town with
him every morning or coming for him in
the afternoon, when they extend their
drive around the country, now so glorious
in its autumn dress. Those who have
seen Mrs. Cleveland lately say that she
never looked as handsome. Mrs. Perrine,
WHO went to Chicago with Postmaster
General and Mrs Bssell, returned also
with them, and is staying at Woodley.
The ladies are at home to their friends
pretty much the same as at the white house,
but very naturally no other persons would
call at the country residence without a
special invitation. 1t is quite probable
that President and Mrs Cleveland will re-
main in the country for another month at
least and in fact the house will be kept in
readiness for them at any time during the
winter. Mrs. Cleveland is just as devoted
to the quiet of the country as the presi-
dent and as she is fond of walking about
the woods, she can have all the outdoor
/ exercise she wants in company with the
| babies, pleasure not to be thought of by
, her in the streets of the city.

THE BRAZILIAN WAR.

Latest News Indicate that the Rebeli
Still Command the Situation.
New York, Oct. 26-A press des
patch from Montsvideo says that
Frederick Guilherme de Lerena hal
been proclaimed provisional president Of
Brazil by Admiral Mello, In command of
the insurgent feet
Lorena Is the captain OF one OF the rebel
warships, and the provisional government
of which he is now proclaimed president
was established some days ago at Desterro,
which is the capital city of the state of
Santa Catharina.
The despatch also delares that the
bombardment of Rio has been suspended
There are two reasons current in Rio
Janeiro for this action, or rather inaction,
on the part of Admiral Mello.
One is that he is awaiting tho arrival
Of the ship Ciudad de Porto, which set out
from this port recently, loaded with allies
and provisions, but especially ammunition,
for Mello. 1t is surmised that the rebel
gunners have about run out of gunpowder
and projeotiles.
The other reason current for the sus-
pension OF the bombardment Is that the
foreign warships in the harbor have inter-
fered to prevent the further shelling of
the defenseless buildings of the capital.
The rebel war ship Republica, which ap-
peared outside the harbor of Montevideo
Sunday and was quarantined, signalled
the Tiradentes yesterday to come outside
and fight. The Tiradentes did not deign
to reply, but continued TO lie quietly under
the friendly aegis of Uruguay.
The Uruguayan officials refused pratique
to the Rspublica and would not even allow
her to communicate with the shore, 30
that, after being supplied with water and
COAL she sailed north again, tagging tho
Tiradentes an invitation to join the rebels,
and taunting the crew with being towards
for seeking protection from a foreign
power.
Admiral Mello issued another proclama-
tion yesterday exhorting his conrad es to
continue their efforts, and assuring the m
of the ultimate downfall of "the tyrant
Peixoto," whom he accuses of treach cry
and cowardice.
He declares that the president endeav-
ored to assassinate him by means of an
album loaded with dynamite, which was
sent to Mello with the oonnivancs Of
Peixoto.

PARIS, Oct. 25.-The Russians went to
Versailles yesterday afternoon on special
train, Admiral Avelan riding in the car
riage used by Queen Victoria when she
passed through France. They stopped a
few minutes at st. Cloud and Sevres to
receive addresses from the local Sauthori-
ties. At Versailles all the approaches to
the railway station were filled with cheer
ing crowds. Tha waiting room had been
transformed into saloon with maroon
hangings, red carpet, palms and flowers.
"Vive rAlliapce"
The Russians looked through the palace
with minute interest. In response to re-
peated calls for them they appeared on the
balcony outside the saloon where the
German empire was proclaimed. They
were greeted with the cry "Vive PAlli-
ancel" They drove to the Grand Trianon,
the villa erected by Louis XIV. for Nine.
de Maintenon, and saw the apartments Of
Marie Antoinette then to the Petit Tri-
anon and the Bassin Neptune where they
watched the fountains play.
