:." . Chilian News.
Saxtiago de Chili, Jan. 27. A spec
ial dispatch to the Associated Press says :
The text of Chili's replv to President
Harrison's ultimatum has not yet been
made public. ,It is awaited upon all
sides with intense interest," The sub
stance of it has already been; indicated
in the associated press dispatches from
here, and thist so far as learned, meets
with general approval on the- part of
the intelligent' classes. The news that
President Harrison -sent a special mes
sage to congress Monday relating to the
points at iesue - between the .United
States and : Chili and the dispatches
published here yesterday and today,
describing the attitude of the American
public toward the matter, caused no
little popular excitement here. The
Baltimore incident, the President's ulti
matum and message and the dangerous
tensions of relations between J.he two'
governments ."were the sole topics of
conversation in all circles. They domi-f
nate the newspaper columns,, to the
virtual exclusion of all other questions.
The younger and hotter-headed, portion
of the public continue to indulge in
much war talk. Rather than' have the
government ai-knowledge its fault or
apoligize for its utterances, these young
patriots declare they would rather resort
rto arms. ; Such talk as Uais, ibis believed
reflects ,the opinion of a large element
of the common people. Naval officers
are reported to be much stirred up at
the, thought that they may be called
upon to salute the Stars and Stripes.
They go so far as to say, according to
reports published in today's papers,
they would see the Chilian fleet sunk
before they would salute the American
flag. Whatever the government may
J.say omcially in withdrawing the-' onen-
sive note of Matta, there are abuudant
indications that Matla's popularity will
riot in any way be decreased because of
the authorship of that now "famous dis
patch. Instead, it looks nery much as
though tliis was the most popular act of
his administration. While the cabinet
is deliberating upon the precise form of
anguage in whih to apoligize to the
United States, preparations are actively
going on by a committee of leading citi
zens to honor Matta with a grand, im
posing banquet. This affair takes place
Saturday and promises to be a brilliant
affair." ' "
Just" From 'Chill.
Tacoma, Jan. 27. T. J. Edmondson
has returned from Chili, where he spent
eighteen months. - While, there he was
permanent in commercial matters and
was personally acquainted with Presi
dent Montt and many navy officers. ' He
says: "Unless the United States does
subdue Chili and make., her apologize,
the life' of American citizens will not be
worth a 5-cent piece in that country, or
any other part of Spanish America from
Mexico to Patagonia. - They, will be
killed or driven out of the country. The
sentiment of the people and press when
I was in Chili and, now, as shown by
letters and papers recently received, ris
impertinent. -- Life there is almost un
bearable to Americans, but nothing like
what it will become If Chili is not made
suitably apdlogize. . - Chili is no't a repub
lic any more than Russia is. It is an
oligarchy - ' ,
Peasants Driven Desperate.
i St. Petebbbubg, Jan. 27. Matters in
the famine-stricken .districts are getting
worse. In many instances the-ignorant
peasantry, exasperated by hunger and
sickness, have turned against the doctors
on account of the latter' s failure to effect
cures, and physicians are fleeing in ter
ror In some cases' where governors of
provinces haye threatened to call out the
militia to preserve order, peasants have
plainly told the governors if the military
was called out they would kill the gov
ernors. In some instances the peasants
have , attempted to derail passenger
trains by tearing up portions of .the
tracks. - The men of a regiment stationed
at Villna have been displaying a mutin
ous spirit, and today refused to salnte an
artillery officer. The-officer thereupon
rew a revolver and shot two noncom
missioned officers. As he-was about to
kill a third, the mep complied with the
-regulations saluted.
Not at Liberty to Tell. .
Paris, Jan. .27..4. representative of
the Associated Press, today asked United
States Minister Reid if negotiations were
being carried on in Paris tor reductions
in American duties on silks and wines,'
in rettftn for 'reciprocal advantages in
French duties. ... After Reid had read the
article j he said ;.j "There is nothing in
Jt," adding, I'l am not at liberty to tell
what the negotiations are about?
. ; Hotel Destroy ea by Fire.
Walla Walla, Jan. 27. Fire this
morning destroyed the Washington
hotel, i a two-story building owned by
Stine & Stone. Loss on the building and
contents, $2300 ; insurance, $1300. The
adjoimng.buUding was oned by J. L.
Miller, of Spokane, and was to the ex
tent of $500 damages; .fuliy insured.
The firemen worked heroically and de
serve jireat praise. -
i In Favor of Cb.ll.
Xew YoBK,'Jan. 27. The Herald's
cable from Panama .says the feeling in
Columbia is favorable to Chili and the
Spanish press believes Uncle Sams move
is a death blow to the . pan-American
union.- It is .understood in cape of trou
ble the vessels of the South American
Steamship Company will be 'placed at
the service of Chili. ,
Little Prospect of an Early Fight.
San Antoxio, Jan. 27. There is little
prospect of an early fight between the
troops and Garza's men. It is stated
upon reliable authority that Garza has
only two men- with him his brother
and an experienced scout ; that they
hide in the. brush during the day, and
venture out only at night to obtain sup
plies from friendly ranchmen.

A. D. Moon, a young -br&keman in the

injured by. the cars that he died this
afternoon. As he stepped from an en
gine his foot slipped on. the ice and he
was tnrown unuer the wheels. lie was
frightfully mangled.
Chinese Still Coining In.
San Fkancisco, Jan. 27. Justice John
F. McCreight, of the supreme court of
British Columbia, is in the city. "Cus
tems officials tell me," he said yesterday,
"that large numbers of Chinamen still
continue to enter the United "States
through the Canadian provinces. The
United btates government, maintains a
staid old cruiser, the maximum speed of
which is eight knots an hour. Some en
terprising . citizens of Victoria own a
craft which can run sixteen miles an
hour, so they quietly drop down from
Victoria and easily elude the vigilance
of the American officers, it will be lm
possible to keep Chinamen from entering
the United btates unless some change is
made.
England Still Meddling.
London, Jan 27. The Post comments
upon the 'inability of the United States
to fight Chili except by a prolonged
struggle upheld by superior wealth. It
condems Egan and says: "An incredible-
congress - will support Harrison,
whose message is most interesting as
marking an epoch in the. history of dem
ocracy' in its natural borne.' Surmise
wi'hout evidence, and suspicion which
refuses to be allayed, form a bad foun
dation for a declaration of war. If Har
rison is -serious he is scarcely mindful
of the extreme responsibility imposed
by power. If he is merely thinking of
elections he cannot be said to consult
the dignity or interests of the country
by thus playing with fire.
Mew tine of Freight Steamers.
San Fbanxisco, Jan.' 27. It is stated
this morning that some dozen wealthy
merchants.: of San Francisco have 'de
cided to organize a- California ..corpora
tion, which 8 hall have foe its object the
maintenance of a line of freight steam-
Lers between this port - and New York.
Six steamers are to be built, here at a
cost of $2,000,000, and the money is to
be raised by selling at par "a total of
$1,000,000 in stock and issuing bonds to
a like amout,-- The stock is said -to -be
virtually all taken now, and provisions
made for promptly floating the bonds.

Washington, Jan. 27. There w.re no -
now facts developed today in regard to '
the Chilian affair. Members of the cab--inet
preserve perfect silence on the sub
ject of Chili's concessions, and will not
admit or deny anything. Secretary .
Tracy is confined to his home today with
a slight attack of rheumatism. Captain
Schley, commander of the -Baltimore,
said this morning it would be improper
for him to rqake any statement whatever
in regard to-what was said during his
conference with the president and secre-, :
tary of the navy. Lieutenant "M'cCrea,
of the Baltimore, is in the city. No
movements of naval vessels were an
nounced today. Representative Blount.
chairman of the house-committee on
foreign affairs, called at tie department
of state and had a chat with Secretary
Blaine on the question of submitting to
congress the reply of the Chilian govern
ment to the so-called ultimatum oi the
United States. The additional corres
pondence will probably be sent to con
gress jn a few days.
In the Senate.
Washington. Jan. 27. In the eenate
among the bills presented was one in
corporating the society of American
florists. .
Hale from the. committee on naval
affairs reported back the resolution " re
questing the president to report what
steps, if any, were taken to have sound
ings made between San Francisco of any
point, on the Pacific coast and the
Hawaiian islands; agreed on. '
Morgan offered a resolution directing
the secretary of state to send to the "sen
ate copies of the correspondence with,
the government of China relating to,the
non-acceptance of Blair as United States
minister to China. After considerable
discussion Morgan modified the resolu
tion eo as to request .the president to
furnish the correspondence, if not incom
patible. It was then agreed to.
The resolution heretofore reported
from the committee on privileges and
elections, declaring Chilton of Texas en
titled to hold his seat in the senate, was .
agreed to without division.
The senate then proceeded to business
on the calendar.
In the House.
In the house a bill was introduced
providing that all oleomargarine trans
ported into any state or territory, or re
maining therein for use, consumption,
sale or storage, shall, upon arrival there,
be subjected to the laws thereof in the -manner
as though such oleomargarine .
was produced in such state or territory.
The bill was referred to the committee
on agriculture.
Martin, of Indiana, presented a reso
lution, calling on the president to pub
lish all correspondence whatever had by .
the United States government upon
matters concerning the Chilian trouble
Referred to committee on foreign affairs.
A number of bills of little importance -were
introduced and referred.
The couse then, proceeded to further
considesation of the proposed rules.. .
A Smart Chinaman.
New York, Jan. 27. Chu Fong, the
Christianize young- Chinaman, who
was on trial yesterday in the general
sessions . before Judge Cowing on an in
dictment charging him with forging the
signature of Vuen Sing, the president of
the Chinese Six Companies, oiva prom
issory note for $1500, Is probably the
brightest-looking -young Chinaman in
thisjeity. . He wearshandsome clothing
and expensive jewelry, . He formed the
acquaintance, of Lawyer eth.RtlJohn- i
son in, the Sixth A v4nue Baptist church '.
-inn Krookiyn -,on . the ; night . mat .ne re
nounced' heathenism and was -baptised
into Christianity. Soon afterward he
presented, himself at Lawyer : Johnson's
office, and - induced Mr, Johnson to dis
count notes apparently made by Chinese
merchants. Chu Fong is Ihe Chinaman .
who-is accused of - having organized a
Chinese syndicate to smuggle opium.
He collected $5000 from the syndicate
and pretended to order -opium" from -China.-
' Thtf opium was consigned to a
fictitious 'party in Newark. - - When the
representative of the syndicate opened
the barrel it was found to be filled with
flour of a cheap grade. , y"
