His the Archbishop Casanova Orders Clergy Not to Interfere With Elections—Feeling Against the United States, [Copyright 1591 by James Gordon Bennett.] VALPARAISO, Chill (via Galvoston, Tex.,) Oct. 4,—[By Mexican cablo to the Herald— Special to Tue Bee|—Archbishop 8Casanova issucd orders to his clergy not to interfere in any way with the elections this month, which are to decide who shal Balmaceda as president of Chili. The archbishop is a mau of broad mind and liberal spivit. He has great faith in the new provisional gov- ernment, believing that under it republican institutions are secured and that 1t will give the country full electoral liberty—one of the main objects the junta had in view when it started out to overthrow Balmacec His orders are hailed with enthusiasm here. The arch-bishop is a great admirer of the Herald. Some years since while ona tour of the United States ho visited the Herald office in New York, an event he recalls with pleasure, All through the unhappy war in Chili he acted the role of a true patriot. He did everything in his power to establish peace. As election day draws nigh rumors about the candidates for this high offico increase in number. Among those who have been very prominently mentioned is Senor Irarasavel. Iam given to understand however that the majority of the leaders are in favor of tender- ing the honor to Admiral Jorge Montt who, with Waldo Silon and Ramon Barros Lusce, form the now widely cele- brated junta de gobierno, In fact it is r ported that he has already teen urged to allow his name to bo used as a candidate. I am not able to learn tbat he had acceded to the request. Certainly his nomination would be the very best thing for Chili. The victorious party is composed of a number of political factions which, while differing widely on many subjects, were united by a common firm determination to drive Balma- ceda from power. No one could be selected who could sausty all these factions as Admi- ral Montt would. Word has reached hers of tho arrival of the flag ship San Francisco at Payta, Peru, of ber orders from the American govern- ment to return to Valparaiso and of her put- ting into Callao while en route to this city. The news has not been received pleasantly here. The Chilians regard her return with undisguised disfavor. succeed FRIENDLY SENTIMENTS, French and Italian Speakers at the Unveiling of Garibaldis Monument, Nice, Oct., 4.—The mayor of this city un- veiled the monument to Garibaldi heve today.

Other speakers, among them several deputies, spoke in a similar strain. Mr. Rance speaking on behalf of the French ropublic. contemptuously repelled to charges that the Irenco desired to restore tho temzoral power of the popo, He begged the Italians not to bo alarmed. M. Rouvier oxpressed similar sentiments. LASCIVIENT ROYALTY, 1y Rumors Concerning Prince Vic- tor of England.

Tho soft lndian summer air with its soft autumn hazo broueht thousands to Central park, which is only oue block from Cloveland’'s home, Hundreds sauntered from the park through Sixty-sixth streot, to yiew the house whero General Grant was so long sick before going to the mountains, and where his widow lives. Turning into Madison avouuo tho sight-seers strolied up tho ayenuo to look at the house where, according to tho mora- ing papers, a new born baby was. Oppesito the houso across the street, all the afterncon was loitering crowds of curious peoplo, who stopped in littlo Kaots and groups to look at the house whose open windows let in the soft air which gently lifted the curtains behind the window. "Phere were many messages of congratulation during the day, but the doctor and the mes senger boys chielly mado up the caller Word came ont from the quiet bouse that the littlo one uud her mother were in a satisfactory condition, Tho little one's grandmother, Mrs, Cleveland's mother, left tho house for'n brief airing during the afternoon. The most definite description of the child is to the effoct that tho baby has light hazel oyes, and that there are indica- tions that she will bea brunette.

The' house stands upon & wall with the water on_threo sides of it. The ncarest houso is a milo away. They spent a very quiet summer. k. C. Benedict, the Wall street bauker, had his big steam yacht, the Oucida, anchored near tho house ihe greater part of tho timo. Every littlo whilo the Clevelands would go with Mr. Benedict on a short_cruise. Nearly every day they would sec the Jeffersons who lived two miles away, or the Gilders who live in Marion. Early in the summer Mrs. Cleveland would drive to Marion. The queer little town 15 cight miles from Ciray Gables and the road is a beautiful one. They were very fond of Mus. Cleveland in old fashioned Marion. But in July the drives to Marion became less frequent. By the Ist of August thoy had ceased altogother. Then Mrs. Cleveland rarely left tho grounds sbout Gray Gables. Whon Mr. Cleveland was away she would lio in the hammock on the Lroad eastern veranda all the long summer day.
