The Elk Secretary's Reply 30 Randall
Supplementary Statement

The Eek Secretary's Reply TO RandaII's
Supplementary Statement
WASHINGTON, d. c., July 25.-The
House Committee on Foreign Affairs to
day, by unanimous vote, reconsidered
its former decision in regard to state.
ments recently received from ex-Secre.
| tRTy Blaine, in response 10 one submit
Ted by Robert Randall, and without OBJ
| lection the statement of Blaine was
made part of the record of proceedings
in the Chilli Peruvian investigation.
The committee also decided TO permit
Randall TO submit an additional state
ment if he so desires. Ex-Secretary
Blaine sent to the committee a long
letter in reply to the supplementary
statement made to the committee by
Robert L. Randall. The letter begins as
follows:
AUGUSTA, Me-, July 81, 1SS2.-Hon.
Charles G. Williams, chairman of the
Committe on Foreign affairs, House of
Representatives SIR have received
copy of the supplementary statement
which Robert E. Randall has been per-
mitted to place before your honorable
committee. AS RandaIl's statement
relates solely 10 my official conduct as
Secretary Of State, l respectfully ask
the privilege of replying to his various
privilege of answering the testimony of
Gilmore, Minister from Peru, who asso-
ciates himself with Randall rs q corrob-
orative witness.
Blaine then takes up the subject of
the Credit Industriel, with regard to
which
CORRESPONDENCE WAS IN PROGRESS
when he was appointed secretary of
state, and quotes the proposition known
as the "Guillaume program" made by
that company and set forth in q letter
from Count Montferrand and Quarez TO
Eyarts. This proposition, Blaine says,
was founded upon the idea Of an Amer
lean protectorate, and was in effect that
the United States should recognize and
constitute the Credit Industriel General
liquidator, for the benefit OF the bond
holders and creditors, all resident in
Europe. This absurd proposition,
Blaine says, II always rejected, and
never consented TO entertain for q mo-
ment. The United States was perfectly
willing European boHdholders should
get their pay in any honorable manner,
but the idea OF making this government
guarantee for the Credit IndGstrIeI of
France, and of extending an American
protectorate over portion of Peru for
the benefit of the subjects of four Euro
pean nations, is piece of wild policy
which may be safely left 10 the anihers
and representatives OF the Guillanme
program, including their attorney, Rob,
ert Z. Randall Blaine then quotes a
number of extracts from his cores
pondence with Minister Hurlbnt tuI show
that il was never his intention to urge
the .progEem of the Credit fntIuatriel
upon the government of Peru, ''andi in

Wichita Eagle: Several hundred peo-
pie witnessed game of base ball last
Monday between the Emporia and WITCH
tia mines that for excellence is seldom
surpassed even by professionals. At the
beginning OF the sixth inning the stress
had impaired itself to the crowd of spec
tators. Up to that time but one score
had been made by each club. The game
was q return one and for the champion
ship. The Wichita nine had never been
beaten and as it turned out came of
victorious again. In the sixth inning,
by q mistake as to the loca-
ton OF the pad on the first base,
Emporia Numbered which, as the boys
say, 'rattled" the whole nine, leaving
the victory that followed q comparative
ly easy one. But the playing by both
sides was very flne.. q tunes, superb.
There were no accidepts, and after an
enjoyable evening the visiting club took
ats departure for home.

The mortar, a coarse grout, although
composed only of common red CLAW
and small sandstone pebbles, has
withstood without any signs of
deterioration the Wondering effects
of sunshine and storm, summers
heat AMI winters frost for unknown
ages: Hieroglyphics and sign
writing can be seen on the face of
the canyon walls in every direction.
OF this there are two distinct classes.
In one appears the rude figures of
men, beasts. birds and reptiles inter-
spersed and commingled with rude
representations of trees, shrubs, etc.
The other class consists of charac-
tiers closely resembling in their
shape the cuniform letters used by
the ancient Chaldeic races: a singu-
lar Saw-tooth-shaped sign being
invariably preceded by the repre-
sentatlon Of crown, sun, stars, or the
moon in some of its different phases
and occasionally the face or figure
of human being. The first men
toned class is done indiscrimin-
ately, and without seeming order,
all over the cliff the second class is
done in parallel lines, as we fancied,
being written from left to right,an
sometimes in columns up and down,
as the Chinese write. This writing
has been done with some sort or
red paint which, by long exposure,
has become so hard that we were
unable to cut it with our knives.
Various estimates were made as
to the probable numbers of the once
Inhabitants of these dwellings, and
the conclusion arrived at, was that
at one time there could not have
been less than 5000 souls in this
canyon. Considering the fact that
the arabic land is at no place more
than 200 yards in width, and only
occurring in patches of not more
than half mile in length, for dis
lance of thirty miles, they must
have been a laborious and pains
taking race, and although to sup
port such a population every foot
of arabic land must have been
under cultivation, the period OF
their determination or migration is
so far removed that no sign of cul-
tivated land now exists, and where
at one time there were villages con-
tanning hundreds of inhabitants,
the ground is now covered with
dense forest Of cedar and pinion.
Some of the trees standing on the
site of the ruins will measure two
feet in diameter at the base.

depth of sand and other accumu-
lated matter, we found the fireplace
"a round hole in the rocky floor,
charred wood ashes and half
parched corn. This building Is
Situated or a ledge 122 feet long.
The length Of the bIilding is about
seventy feet, the ledge varying in
width from eight to seventeen feet.
The natural wall back Of the build
ing rises perpendicularly for about
twelve feet, then gradually project
ing forward oYerhangs the building,
forming a complete, and in case of
attack from above, an impenetrable
roof. The ascent to this Yerltable
air castle is by means of small pro-
iecting Lodges, with ROtcheS cut in
the rocky wall to enable
persons ascending or descend
ing to pass from one shelf or
ledge to another. The entrance
a lew, narrow door which will adj
nit Of but one person at a time, is
in the center Of the building, and
leads into a room five feet wide and
about eight feet in length, from
which there is no egress except by
climbing the wall and again dis
cending into the interior of the
building The main portion Of the
structure is one story high, but the
southwestern end has aSecOnd story
of a later build. This we inferred
from the fact that the mortar is
composed of white clay, that Of the
previous construction being Of red
CLAW and sandstone pebbles. The
structure contains thirteen apart
mentS on the first floor and seven IN
the upper story.
I have said that these dwellings
were rudeIy constructed. To a cas-
ual observer they appear so, being
obliged as the builders were to con-
form to the irregular shape Of the
rocky wall against which they are
erected vet, after careful exami-
nation we failed to find asingle stone
in its natural state. All had been
dressed either to a square or key
stone shape; each one was OF the
same thickness as its fellows IN the
same course or layer IN the wall.
