Buenos Ayres, Feb. 23.-Advices from
Rio state that Peixoto has stopped ali
photographic communication between that
city and Bahia.
This action is supposed to have been
taken on account of the recent events
i'll Bahia, which have weakened the
acting preaident's position.
1t is reported here that the govern
ment squadron has mutinied and the
insurgent army is in the southern part
of Brazil, advancing without 5pposi-
ton
The government troops sent to meet
the army are said to have been seized
with panic and fed. 1t is feared the
continued depreciation of paper money
will lead TO a financial crisis. The Bo-
livian forces have invaded the western
part of Brazil and established military
posts along the upper course of the
river Purus, in the state of Amazonas.
Later advices from Rio say the gcv-
eminent battery at Ponto Madam has
sunk the insurgent transport Murcurio.

Washington, Feb. %. = Numerous
plans for strengthening the House rules
are under consideration.
The one most generally approved
provides that the attention of the
speaker may be directed to the fact
that members are present and not vot-
ing, thereupon the speaker may direct
that the members be brought before
the bar of the House and their names
recorded as present to make a quorum.
1t is said this obviates the criticism of
the Reed rule" method. The quorum
feeling is so strong that Democrats are
ready to accept the Reed rules on
the quorum question without any ex-
cuse or explanation.
