Panama, South America, December 20.
"A Lima correspondent, under date of
November 10th, says: The rumors Of
the Asto visit to ALASKA, which were rife
last week, but which no one credited,
proved true. She called at Mallenedo
and landed brother OF Garcia Calderon,
who is said to have been the bearer of
funds and instructions for the leaders of
the revolution against Pierola. There
seems truth in this statement, since di-
rectly after his arrival at that city troop 8
were marched in the direction of Ayae-
cucho, the heanquarters of Pierola and
his friends and at present the capital Of
Peru. in the eyes of his followers and all
European diplomatists who never
ceased to recognize him as the head Of
the republic. What people in the United
States will soy when they learn that one
of their war vessels has been used to as.
sist party in civil strife can be readily
