the crevasse eighteen miles bel"W ILtn

ing from the river into the tialton basin ;
that only a small stream waa running
through the river bank and continued
einht miles inland, from which point tLe
water returned to the Colorado. W'here
foui weeks ago a small river ran to
ward Ballon, not a trace of water can
now be found. There will be no rise of
conaeonence in the Colorado tor four
months which can effect the Sulton re
gion and by that time the desert aands
will fill up the openings with sand checa-
hig any further Inflow. The water has
been falling for the past month at bal

sign of the so-called desert lake will be
seen.

Ciiicaoo, Oct. 24. W. F. Burns, a
nalive of San Francisco, lately engaged
in the secret service of the Chilian
government under Balmaceda. has been
in Chicago for nearly a week. Dunnj
that time lie baa been in daily communi
cation with the state department, and
Monday he will leave for Wellington
for a consultation with Assifctant Sscre
tary Wharton, which may result in ad
ding to the seriousness of the present
strained relations with the Chilian
government. Mr. Burns waa asked
about what he thought ot Minister
Egan's position in Chili. Said be:
I don't think he can slay there. Egan
was certainly hand-in-glove with Balma
ceda, and if the junta are a lot of sooundrels,
as 1 believe they are, they have tin legal
right to turn hin. back to America. They
are not afraid of this country. None of the
South American nations are. All their
dealings are with Euroiean oouutries.
When i he United States sent the Talahasaee
or some other tub, lo Ecuador a year or
two ago, that country sent down to tiuu
to ask if Chilli would help Ecuador in a
fight with the United States. Think of
that.
Mr. Barns declared with a good deal
of earnestness that he did not belitfve
that Balmaceda was dead. He wou.d
not tell why. Mr. Burns asserts that
while in Berlin he was thrown in prison
without trial by the German police, ai
the instigation of the Chilian govern
ment, and he demanded satisfaction
from Chili and Germany. According to
his statements, he waa in Berlein pur
chasing arms ;ior Balmaceda when the
news of the Balmacedan government
downfall was received. The Balmaeed
anshadon deposit in the city a sum of
money, and they were, Mr. Bnrns says,,
in his debt about $80,000. He drew the-'
money and placed it to his own credit.
Soon after he was thrown into prison on.
charges put up by the junta. He was
kept in prison ten days till he convinced
the German officials, by snowing lus
papers that there was no reason for hia
detention. Then he started for America,
and was ai rested twice before he readied
the frontier. He was held but a few-hours.

City of Mexico, Oct 24 A dispatch
from San Salvador to the associated
pi-ess Bays : President Lzeta asserts ne
does not aim to effect the union of Cen
tral American republics as reported.
He believes union may come in time
but it cannot be brought about by force,
and if it does come, it will not be for
some years.
Business is exceedingly dull here ana
in other parts of the country. Articles
of prime necessity are growing dearer
and dearer, causing more sutiering
among the poor, 'ihe merchants are
overstocked, and rents are fabulously
high . Scores of houses appear deserted,
and in some of the states the condition
is even worse than this.
