EASTERN DISPATCHES,
Anxiety at the State Department
With Regard 10 Gillian Affairs.

WASHINGTON. January 30.-Still much
concern is felt BY the Presidents and the
Secretary OF State W the immediate
result Of Trescott's action In South
America. Up to yesterday no replies
had been received from hiu aeknowl-
sdging the receipt OF two kilograms Of
January 8 and 4, which were dispatched
BY way Of Europe. and which were de-
signed 10 show him that q complete
change OF policy had been adopted by
the President. These kilograms were
sent as most urgent matter, and every
p~recsution taken TO insure their prompt
forwarding and delivery. The days suc-
ceeding the sending Of these kilograms
were days OF grave anxiety. At the end
OF the fourth day, no reply having been
received. the Secretary Of State sought
o personal interview with the Gillian
Minister here, to impress upon him, In
an informal talk, that the President had
no policy In regard to the impending
troubles between Peru and Chill beyond
Q desire to exercise tho good offices Of
tho United States impartially and In
the most friendly spirit toward both ma.
tons. and solely for the purpose Of
bringing about peace. Both the Prssi.
dent and Secretary OF State, after care.
fully examining the instructions Of Tres
cot. were impressed with the belief that
IL they were executed in the temper they
were written, we were on the threshold
Of o war with Chilli. They further be-
lieved that by prompt and decided 40.
ton trouble could be averted. The frank
conference with the Gillian Minister
was for the purpose OF adding greater
certainty to the desired avoidance OF the
first stage OF the trouble. The anxiety
now Is lest Prescott. before he receives
the new advices sent him. may have ia
ken the first instructions. which will lead
to an open rupture Of diplomatic rsla-
tons. The serious results OF suoh .
misfortune have been in SEINE degree %.
capped. 1t Is believed by the wide pub
LEGATION Of this governments real motive
Of its purpose, as shown In recent in
structions and by tho conference With
the Gillian Minister. at which o good
understanding was reached, the Presi-
dent would in any event have made
known his change OF policy, but IL was
felt that II should DO much less embar.
RAISING to II before trouble
had actually arisen and become publicly
known. It Is not yet certain that diff.
culties have not already arisen. az those
portions OF Trescott's last dispatch not
fully deciphered are OF q character to
create much uneasinoss, and there will
be great relief here when 1t becomes Of.
icially known that Trescot has received
and begun TO act under his new instrue-
tons.
