Prior to Mr.. Blaine's appearance before
the committee Mr.. Belmont had placed on
record the following statement preparatory
to a question which he based thereon:
on tho 10th Of December Mr.. Blaine wrote
his last dispatch TO South America in which
he says, in effect, that there shall be no treaty
Of peace without u recognition OF the Ian
dreau claim.
Turning to the dispatch which Mr. Bel
mont translates as above, we find the actual
language to be entirely and irreconcilably
different. What Mr.. Blaine did say was as
follows:
Government Of any Impression that the United
States meditates Intervention on behalf OF pri-
vate claims beyond the use OF its good offices,
you win say that justice seems to demand
that Landreau should have an opportunity to
be heard In support OF his claim before a tri-
buual in Peru competent to decide IT, and that
IL decided in his favor, treaty OF peace,
which might cede territory 10 Chill, should
not be made In disregard OF any rights which
Landrenu may be found, after an impartial
judicial Investigation, to possess. Further
than this the Department of State has not
yet authorized to go, and ! must ex-
and Chill, to both Of which you are accredited,
will recognize tho moderation and Justice of
the request made by this Government
Here it will be seen that so far from say
ing that there shall be no treaty Of peace
without a recognition of the Landreau
claim" Mr.. Blaine expressly instructs Mr..
Trescot to "disabuse the Chilian mind of
any impression that the United States
meditates any Intervention beyond the use
of good Offices" On the first day Mr..
Blaine appeared before the committee he
called Mr.. Belmont's attention to his mis-
statement and asked him to correct it, At
fhn f1nec IF bia I'M tla
having meanwhile been frequently referred
to and fully understood, Mr.. Blaine again
asked Belmont to do him the Justice to cor
rect it. Mr.. Blaine stated that all he de-
sired was that Mr.. Belmont would frankly
admit that he had through error made a
misquotation and that the record of exami-
nation should be corrected. Mr.. Belmont
refused to make the correction and de-
clared afresh that he had correctly quoted
Mr.. Blaine. Whercupon Mr.. Blaine de-
sired to place on record his declaration
that Mr.. Belmonts statement was "un-
truthful" and, therefore, Mr.. Belmont bel
lowed out that Mr.. Blaine was " a coward,
a bully"
And now, with all these facts plainly be-
fore them, the New York Herald, Times,
World, San, Ereniag Post and Commercial
Adreriiser come forward and declare that
Belmont correctly quoted Mr.. Blaine. The
Springfield. Republican and some Boston
papers follow suit and the organ of the Ad-
ministratlon in this city joins in the same
cry. We place these facts on record as a
psychological curiosity and exhibit them
to the American people as specimen of
Congressional investigation at its worst
point and of the recklessness of newspaper
Endorsement of plain and palpable false
hood.

FoRTYTHREE dollars a month is not
enough to pay station-keepers, who have to
work twelve hours out of twenty-four, and
have eleven different sets of books to keep.
1t is less than twelve cents an hour, and
common laborers get more than that. As
we have three other engineers, the "com-
putting engineer" at 50 400, might be dis
pensed with, and as we have an attorney at
$4,000, the assistant attorney at $4,000 and
the special assistant attorney at $1,000
could be spared, and the $5,400 paid to
them be divided among the sixteen sta
tion-keepers thus adding $2S to the month
ly salary and making it s7l, instead of Sl3.
General Ketcham, who has charge of the
District appropriation, can lop off these
superfluous engineers aud lawyers and give
the money thus saved to some deserving,
hardworked and underpaid men.
