 LONDON, Feb. 5-The Pall Mall Gazette to-day further comments on the action of Rear Admiral Bsnham, the commander of the American fleet at Rio Jsneiro, who in c most decided manner, gave the insur- gents 10 understand that they must re- spect the rights of American shipping.
 The paper says that there are so many European interests in Brazil that Admira' Benham will never be allowed to play the game that Patrick Esan, the former Amer lean minister to Chill, played in that soun- try.
 Admiral Benham, 1t adds, has no right to defend his action on the plea that Euro pean powers are intriguing to restore the empire in Brazil, although the powers would have every excuse to re- establish the empire, If 1t was true that Brazn desired an emperor.
