New YORK, February 23.-The stock
market opened generally strong and higher,
and subsequently rose a fraction, making
the full advance from Il to per cent, the
latter In New Jersey Central. Before the
first board, however, the entire market be-
came weak, and prices took downward
turn. Speculation continued much de-
pressed throughout the afternoon, and, al
though there were occasional slight
recCveries, prices continued to tend down

THE CONQUEST OF PERU.
PHOSPHATE AT THE FEET OF
THE VICTORIOUS CHILIANS.
Great Suffering Among all Classes
The Dead Unburfed-LOya1 10 the
National Rulers The Reign of
Martial LaW-The ChiIIan Losses.

PANAMA, February 15.-Latest dates from
Lima are to January 90. From 5000 TO
5000 Gillian troops had re-embsrked from
Arequipa. Fugitives from the Peruvian
army were fleeing In great numbers over the
track of the Oroya Railway to the interior.
Eight hundred Chilians were sent after
them, and disarmed four thousand, but
would not take them prisoners because
they did not wish to feed so many. The
fugitives were in most deplorable condi-
ton, Though want of food.
Great distress Is experienced In Lima
even by the well-to-do classes. Hundreds
of beggars swarm the streets, and General
saaverada, the civil and military head of
the department, has personally dis
tributed three thousand sales among
them. The Chilians cannot find
any one to sign peace with, as Pierola had
refused to come to Lima for that purpose,
and no pronunciamento had taken place at
either Lima or Callao. General Saaverada,
Chief OF Staff Of the Chilian army, had as
sumed the chief civil and military command
of the department of Lima.
A few days after entering Lima the army
OF occupation was completely organized.
Callao was entered on the same day as
Lima, and Colonel Patrico Lynch was ap-
pointed Chief of that province. On the
18th the Alcalde of Lima, at the request of
the Chilian authorities, convoked meeting
of prominent citizens to consider the situa-
ton.
They decided that Senior Pierola's authori-
ty was sufficient to establish the govern
ment at any place, and that while accepting
the situation they could not disown the
National Government. In consequence of
this declaration martial law has been pro-
claimed over the territory occupied by the
Chilians.
Twenty-eight hundred prisoners were
taken by the Chilians and carried to the
island of San Lorenzo. Chorillos was
burned to the ground. The streets of the
city and the baach were, up to the 22d,
streWn with dead bodies, supposed TO exceed
ak thousand In number. The Chilian loss
In the battle of the 18Th WAS over twenty
seven hundred. The battle, which was
vigorously sustained by the corps under
command Of Colonel Iglesias, lasted ten
hours.

THE TELEGRAPH CONSOLIDA-
TION.
Examination of the Western Union
Directors Before His suit is Tried.

NEW YORK, February 23.-Robert Sewall,
as attorney for William s. Williams, in the
suit brought by him against the Western
Union Telegraph and the Union Trust Com
pany, to restrain the purchase and consoh-
dation Of the telegraph companies by the
first named defendant, applied to-day to
Judge Sedgwick, in the Superior Court
chambers, for an order for the examination
of the Directors OF the Western Union
Company before the trial.
He stated in his argum 3nt that the order
was necessary In order to properly amend
the complaint aud make 1t more definite
and certain. Ex-Judge Porter appeared
for the Western Union and opposed the mo
tion. He argued that the plaintiff based
his complaint entire on information and be-
lief, and alleged conspiracy concerning
lawful act. That If conspiracy as charged
was true the effert of the order, II granted,
would be, according to plaintiffs papers, to
make the directors testify against them
selves. The Judge reserved his decision.
