All ia Ouiet,

Buenos Ayres, Jan. 24.-Dispatclles re-
ceived here from Rio de Janeiro say that
the insurgents are running short of pro-
visions, and this is ono reason which has
led Admiral DeGama to enter into nego-
tiations with Admiral Benham, in COM
mand of U. 8. feet at Rio de Janeiro,
looking to satisfactory settlement of
the disputes between the government and
the insurgents. It is believed that there
will be no further fighting at Rio de
Janeiro and that the American admiral
now has the key to the situation and he
will be successful in arranging matters in
manner satisfactory to both sides.

about $4O,O0O,0O0, which will be sent to
Philadelphia for coinage.
All the gold bullion will be maie into
coin as fast as possible. The mint has

English Interference.

San Francisco, Jan. 24.-Authentic in
formation has been received here that the
address to Mr.. Cleveland, issued by the
Hawaiian Patriotic league, was written by
L. M. Davies, guardian of the princess,
who is heir to the Hawaiian throne
Davies objection to wishing the ex-queen
restored is obvious. Davies is an English
man with business interests in Honolulu,
and he is ambitious to shine in society
and represent Hawaii as minister at the
court Of st. James. Davies is extremely
British, and regards the increase of Am
erican interests in the island with great
disfavor.
