tain the relations of peace and friend
ship between the United States and
Chili which have ever been close and
cordially.".
In reponse President Harrison said :
'The presence of a representative of the
government of Chill at this capital will
I hope, tend to promote a good under
standing between the two governments
and an early settlement upon terms
just and honorable to both of the diplo
matic questions now somewhat urgently
awaiting adjustment. The government
of the United Stated as well as its
people particularly desire and rejoice in
the properity of our neighbors in this
hemisphere.. We hear with sorrow
every fresh tale of internal strife and
are always' ready to give our friendly
offices to the promotion of peace. If
Ltheee are not. acceptable-it is our policy
to preserve honorable and strict neut
rality, as done during the recent war in
Chili." .

gram from the minister of foreign rela
tions at Rio Janeiro stating that tbe

Turkish Rule In Asia.
Constantinople, Nov. 12. The eultan
has ordered the strengthening of the
military forces in Tripoli, the only im
portant African province eti 1 acknowl
edging the actual sovereignty, of the
porte. 'The Tripolitans have been con
siderably shaken in their allegiance by
the reports . of the . prosperity of Tunis
under French and Egypt under English
rule, and the symptoms of discontent
have of late become alarming to-the
tyrannical pasha. This officer has -en
deavored to put down discontent bv the
infliction of barbarous punishments, and
it is no uncommon sight in the -capital
to see half a dozen poor wretches im
paled in the market-place. These hor
rors have only served to excite the popu
lar feeling in a still higher degree.
Turkish rule is in real danger, and the
appearance of a French fleet would
doubtless be followed by an overwheltn
ming insurrection against the sultan's
authoritv.
The Resigned Ministers.
New York. Nov. 13. The Herald's
Valparaiso special says the complica
tions that have arisen in the provincial
government of Chili on account of the
resignations pf Minister of the Interior
Irrazabal and Minister of Agriculture
Walker Martinez seem in a .fair way to
be straightened out. As I cabled you
yesterday tbey surrendered their offices
because the dominant liberal party failed
to elect conservative counsellors of the
state as, it is alleged, they had agreed to
do. It, is now reported that two of the
members of the council of state intend
to resign, rather than cause any political
ill feeling, if this action is taken. It
will create vacancies in the council for
two conservatives. It is expected, in
view of the concessions made to their
party, that Irrazabal and Walker .Mar
tinez will resume their portfolios.
An Attempt in the South.
Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 13. All un

trainmen and citizens fired on them,
and they fled. One was wounded and
captured. '. Tbe woods are being scoured
for the others.

himself at his hiding place, on a farm
