Two Officers Killed for not Saluting- Flr In Walla Walla Other :." . 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. Slexico Takes a Hand. . . City of Mexico, Jan. 27.

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. - A Murderer Captnred.

The Chilian Question - Will ProoaMy lie Settled in a Few Days. THE DOINGS OF THE SENATE Trying to Find why Blair Was not Ac- , . ceptable to China. CATCHING ON KATHKK V FAST. A Yome Chinaman Plays a Vrry Sleek Confidence Game A Murderer Captured. 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.
