wreck and will sink. The injuries are
mostly by steam.

As to PataronIs:

New York, June 28.-A Times edi.
torial says that Patagonia was ceded
to the Argentine republic by the gov
ernment of Chilli. Patagonia is not a
territ ory which any civilized race OF
men should greatly coyet; has been des-
cribed as land of ice and fire. The
Chilian government hss tried many
costly experiments in colonization in
Patagonia, and various improvements
intended to facilitate steam navigation
through the straits of Magellan have
been undertaken. Nothing but disaster
has come of these, and Argentine colo
nies on the Atlantic side of Cordillera
have not been much more fruitful. By
common consent, after some disputes,
Chill occupied the Pacific side of the
central mountain range and the Argen-
tine republic took the Atlantic slope.
Latterly the Argentine republic taking
advantage of Chili's numerous foreign
and domestic complications, has claim
ed an extention of her boundary line in
Patagonia.

What Will They Dor

Washington, June 2s.-Should con-
gress adjourn next Monday afternoon,
as now agreed upon by the house, with
out providing for the failure of caucus
bill number two, the president will
Immediately call congress together
again. This is a contingency that had
hardly been foreseen by the democrats.
The president in determining to recall
congress Immediately, does it to make
sure of the passage of caucus bill num-
ber two.
1t is the sober judgment of the ma
jority, that if congress adjourns early
enough in the day, the president will
call them back the same day. The
main object of the recall is based upon
belief that the majority in congress
is really desirous of passing an unre-
stricted bill, and that by sending this
bill back an unrestricted one will be
passed by the conservative democrats
and republicans. He thinks there is
no strength in the present union be-
tween southern and northern mem
bers upon the last caucus compromise,
for there is nothing in the position of
the northern democrats that should
impel southerners to stand by them, as
to marshals, because the latter have
obtained repeal of the test oath for
jurors and declaration against the
use of troops.
