[St. Louis Relubllcan.1 WAS;INGTON, Nov. 15.- The President and Cabinet are now almost every day in joint conference over recommendations that shall he made to Congress in the various depart- ment reports and the Pri-sident's message. The message will contain a full history of the President's Southern po icy, and will discuss in e-xteno frauds and intimidations stated to have been practiced in the South at rcent elections. Its tone and the announcement of the President's opinions and intentiono in this regard will be very gratifying to the Radical Republican element of the count.ry, who will find him in full sympathy wi.th ttlemselves. The message will be otherwise important, as will be the reports of the Sec- retary of the Treasury in the treatment of the financi3al question and methods of bringing about resumption of specie payments, as provided by law, on the first of January next, xnd mailntenance of commercial pror-perity, which both the President and Secretary Sher- man believe to have begun. Thk use of silver money will be discussed at length, and Sec- retary Sherman will suggest a method for maintaining the value of gold, silver and the paper currency of the government at par. The President will (leal at length, too, with the fisheries award, which will receive most of the attention of the Secretary of State in his annual report. The Secretary of War will ask Congress to reimburse the army for sup- plies furnished yellow fever sufferers, which aggregate nearly $75,000. NEW YORK. NOTES.

The Puipe Congratulaltei Klng HRImbert. RoiEar, Nov. It.-- Pope Leo has sent King Hlumb brt his conigrat,ulations for the King's escape from assassination. Congratulation. to the Mlng--The Would- be AsRaauin's AtlIllatlons-The Austrlian Riot. LioNDON, Nov. 18.- Dspatcheso from tornoe and Naples say telegra.ms of congratulation r roim all parts are arriving at Naples for King iiuribe trt, Among the first to arrive was one from PIope Leo, and the King was greatly pleased with its tone. It Is reported, notwithstanding the denial of Giovanni Pas- sam ante that he does not belong to any socie- ty. and was actuated only by a general dis- like to the King, that investigatioatin shows he a is a member of one of the lrnumerous branches of the secret associations that cover all Italy with a network. Th irnamfifestations of popu- lar rejoicing over the King's escape are very gernerai and genuine; but in certain quarters are heard 'expressions to thie effect that the - sufferings of the poor In Italy are really too - hard to bear, and the King should either allo- t viate thern or make roonu for one who will. The riot at Lembierg, Austria, appears to have been wantonly provoked by bad man- agerment on the part of the authorities. I, emonstrations in holnor of I)eputy Haius- a ner, whose ctourse in opposition to the adlrin- istratiron had incurred for him the ill-will of - the authoritie's, would have passeal off quietly - or been abandoned had notice been given ihim, but the police acted very hastily, and thirteen well known in fluential citizens, some of whomr had nothing to do with the disturb- ance, were killed. Repressive Measures Demanded - Fatal Accidlent at a Popular Demonstratlon. RoME,, Nov. 1• .- All of the Italian journals doermail that repressive laws shall be passe]l. Many Inte'rnationalists have been arrested for alleged complicity in the attempt to as- sassinate the King. There are widespread !and spontaneous congratulations over the I escape of the King from the danger of assas- I sination. a At Florence to-day, during the passage of > the procession forming a part of tre demon- strations in honor of the King's escape, a bomb was thrown into a corps of veterans, and, exploding, killed two of the soldiers and wounded many others. GERMANY. Heavy Bank Robbery at Frankfort. NEw YORK, Nov. 18.- A late copy of the I,'rankfurrler Zrutung, just rece:ived, announces that all Frankfort is talking of a new case of bank robbery. A few days ago Herr Jacob Franck, head of the firm of the same name, committed suicide. The firm was known to have been for some time in a tdecline. His suicide was followed by that of the clerk of the Frankfurter Hank, named Habermrreil. It now appears that last week 200,000 marks of Wurternburg 4% per cent stock passed through the bank to Franck. The packet was, however, returned apparently unopened, but on opening it it was found that the papers had been abstracted, and on making inquiries the discovery was made that HIabermeil was con- cerned in the affair and had been appropriat- ing other sums to the extent of 200,000 marks. The case has been placed in the hands of the police and numerous arrests have been made. Of the 2010,000) marks of Wurtemburg paper 110,000 marks have been recovered. RUSSIA. The Demands of the Government of the tzar Upon Roumania-What They Imply. LONDON, Nov. 18.--A Vienna dispatch says: Although Count Schlouvaloff's assurances have produced a good impfression, and the CGar's orders to the Russian civil and mili- tary functionaries in Turkey really look like the beginning of the fulfillment rf the Berlin treaty, still it is difficult to reconcile the in- tention with Russia's demand on tRoumania to make the evacuation of Roumania condi- tional upon the recognition of Russia's right to occupy and fortify Kustendge and other strategical points in the Drobudja, and to maintain a miltary road through Roumania, which would make Roumania a vassal of the Czar.

CENTRAL AND) SOUTHI AMERICA. A Famine Threatened in Panama-Dam- ages by an Earlhquake--The People Fleeing from Threatened Volcanic Eruptlonw-A Bloody Riot in Ihill. [Correspondenee of the National P'ress.] ConoM BIA, Panama, Nov. 7.---Orasshoppers, which recently made their appearance in this State, have devoured nearly everything and are still contiinuing their ravages, cons•,quent- ly prices of provisions have increased cnor- rously, so that a famine may actually be said to exist in the land. An earth ruake of c onsiderable violence was felt In the State of Antlorquia on the ninth of October. In several of the small towns of the Statse more or less damage was occasioned, but in Manizalls, the capital, where the scene of slaughter took place some eighteen months ago, its effects were most seavrely felt. One hundred and twenty houses were more or less ruined, Including the Catholic church and boys' school and jhospital. The front portion of the church was completely destroyed. The buliding cost $100o,000. News received from this republic confirms the report previously recelved as to the prob- able eruption of the volcano of Santa Anna. Telegrams state that smoke and flames issue in imnrnense quantities from several distinct apertures. The whole country is filled with smoke, and ashes are falling In quantities for miles around, butprinclpally in the direction of Sarsonati and Marano, the side of the volcano towards the sea. The inhabitants in the neighboring villages are seriously alarm- ed. Those In the immediate neighborhood of the theatre of action contemplate moving t) a safe: distance. The volcano of Igalco• is also particularly active. The effect is startling and terrifying. So far the outcome from the craters has been smoke and ashes only, but people are uncertain at what hour lava may follow, pouring down In torrents into the country below and spreading ruin in its track. Chl.l, Threatened manitestations against Manuel Bil bade, on account of the position he assurn ed regarding the question as to the true bearings of the boundaries with the Argentine Repub- lic and Chili, terminated in a riot. On the night of the seventh of Octo,,ber a motb attacked the house of Honor Bilbade, but, for- tunately, that gentleman was absent. They next attacked the office of his newspaper, without doinig serious damage. This state of affairs continued three days, when the mili- tary had to be called. A. few shots were ex- changed. Eighty persons were killed and wounded on both sides. At the latest dater order had been somewhat restored. The Argentine Republic Makes a Demand on Chill. L.O•rno, , Nov.

Th irnamfifestations of popu-lar rejoicing over the King's escape are verygernerai and genuine; but in certain quartersare heard 'expressions to thie effect that the-sufferings of the poor In Italy are really too-hard to bear, and the King should either allo-t viate thern or make roonu for one who will.

The riot at Lembierg, Austria, appears tohave been wantonly provoked by bad man-agerment on the part of the authorities.I, emonstrations in holnor of I)eputy Haius-a ner, whose ctourse in opposition to the adlrin-istratiron had incurred for him the ill-will of

thirteen well known in fluential citizens, someof whomr had nothing to do with the disturb-ance, were killed.

News received from this republic confirmsthe report previously recelved as to the prob-able eruption of the volcano of Santa Anna.Telegrams state that smoke and flames issuein imnrnense quantities from several distinctapertures. The whole country is filled withsmoke, and ashes are falling In quantities formiles around, butprinclpally in the directionof Sarsonati and Marano, the side of thevolcano towards the sea. The inhabitants inthe neighboring villages are seriously alarm-ed. Those In the immediate neighborhood ofthe theatre of action contemplate moving t) asafe: distance. The volcano of Igalco• is alsoparticularly active. The effect is startlingand terrifying. So far the outcome from thecraters has been smoke and ashes only, butpeople are uncertain at what hour lava mayfollow, pouring down In torrents into thecountry below and spreading ruin in its track.
