Peruvians Ordered Under Arms-An In-
 vitatiOn to Foreigners Chflian
 Transport Blown Up-Conduct of the
 War.
 PANAMA, July 1.-The last steamer from the South brought advices from Lima to June 30. The news received is that on the 18th ''bando'' was published calling every man between sixteen and sixty years of age to arms. Those excused from duty are the clergy aud medical men and few Govern ment officials. To enable the men to assem- ble each day all places of business are to be closed from 10 a. m. until 2 p. m. Those who do not comply with the order will be immediately sent to join the active army. All foreigners are invited to form themselves in a corps to maintain order and protect property in the event of the city being left at any time without the usual guardians of the peace. No inhabitant of the province of Lima is allowed to go beyond it's limits without passport. Every private individual in possession of arms is to give them up at once to the Government or be considered traitor and treated as such. It is reported that the Archbishop of Lima has placed the treasure of the church at the disposal of the Government to be used in the service of the country. new torpedo boat equal to that which was lost in May has just arrived at Callao
 An official telegram reached Payta from Lima the 4th announcing the blowing up in Callao bay of the Chilian transport Amazonas. No particulars have been received but the authen- ticity of the fact cannot be doubted. It is supposed that the Amazonas ran foul of one of the torpedoes in the port of Callao.
 General Baquedano, victor at Tacua and Africa, has been promoted to the rank of gen. era1 of division. Other promotions are an- nounced, and in the Chilian Congress resolu- tions thanking the army and congratulating 1t upon its triumphs have been passed as well as assurances that upon it rested Chilfs hopes of securing Ca suitable and an honorable peace."
 The Chilian Government is said to have agreed upon the following propositions look ing to the prosecuting of the war. First, to raise SC, ,OOO, ,OOO for the continuance of tn @ war second, to organize the army with new divisions and. third to raise the Manco Capac. Congress was also discussing proposition for giving to the army as Q premium for it's services lands in the South, to each soldier or sailor 15 hectares, to each general or rear admiral ? 1000 hectares, and to other officers in proportion. A serious debate was occa- stoned in consequence of the deputies saying that it was now time to offer peace to Peru through the mediation of another power, and that the bombardments of Callao were bar barous and useless proceedings.
 Complete lists of the killed wounded and prisoners at Tacua and Africa had not reached Lima at last accounts. Various shipments of Peruvian wounded had been taken to Callao from Africa by Chilian transports.

Desperate Struggle With Burg1ars-One
 Killed and Another Put to Flight.
 OMAHA, July 27.-About o'clock last night the farm house of Daniel Solomon. attorney for the St. Louis, Wabash < Pacific railway, ten miles south of Hastings, Iowa, was the scene of an exciting encounter, end ing in a tragedy. Solomon was absent and the remainder of the family had retired, when noise was heard outside the dwelling followed by the breaking in of two burglars They were confronted by Solomon's son Logan, and desperate encounter ensued, one of the burglars firing three shots at the young man, who courageously grappled with his assailants. After brief struggle he wrenched the revolver from the burglars grip and shot him through the head, killing him. The other burglar then made good his escape. The man who was shot proved to be a farm laborer named Fred, who worked in the vicin- ity. Yesterday afternoon in his fathers ab- sence young Solomon had sold 2,500 bushels of corn and received payment for it in cash. This fact and the elder Solomon's absence, it is supposed, were known to the burglars who determined to obtain the money.

Cuban Insurgents on Turks Island.


 HALIFAX, N. s., July 27.-Captain Williams, of the brigantine Sarah Carney, arrived at this port, eleven days from Turks Island, publishes a report that shortly before he sailed a Cuban insurgent general with forty followers landed at Turks Island by mail steamer from Hayti bound to New York. They had escaped from Cuba to Hayti on a small vessel and were closely pursued by a Spanish man -of-war. While at that place their money and property were con6scated and they were ordered to leave by the Hay tian authorities. The Cubans then got on board the mail steamer and were landed at Turks Island. Shortly after landing there a Spanish war vessel arrived and demanded the surrender of the Cubans, which the Governor of Turks Island refused. The affair made quite little excitement and Captain Williams brought dispatches to the naval authorities here, giving the details of the event.
