CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-The railway
lines running between here and Corn-
Gil Bluffs have served notice on each

the forerunner of revolution in the

Golden Gate special, between Council
Bluffs and San Francisco. This train
will have all the features OF Eastern

seized by q squad of soldiers. The
United States consulate. situated in
the building, was forcibiy closed and
radl0eked, the coat-af-arfnS removed
and the agent prevented from entering
the Office for nearly week. The
American minister, who protested
against the seizure OF the house. on
receipt OF the intelligence OF this
aggression, cahled 10 his government.
who instantly instructed him To de-
maud an apology The Eonse was
vacated after six DAYS eccupatioa.
but the government peremptorily re-
fused 20 make an apology, and rather
upheld the proceedings. On this the
minister telegraphed the intelligence
OF the refusal, and the department OF
state at Washington ordered him 10
forward full particulars of the affair
before taking further steps.
WASHINGTON, Nov. i3.-No serious
troahae is likely to grow out OF the
complications between America and
Peru on account OF the seizure of the
building in which was located the con-
sular agency at Moiendo, Peru.
The facts as reported 10 the depart
ment by United States Minister Buck,
are as follows: The building seized
was the property of the Arequipa Rail-
road Company, the agent for the COM
pany being also United States con-
sular agent. a room in the structure
was occupied as tine United States con-
sulate. The Peruvian government
took possession of the building in the
abs nee OF the consular agent and held
IT Tor q few days, but finally turned il
over TO the agent. on Instructions from
Lima. The Consular records were not
disturbed. As the action appeared 10
be a technical discourtesy towards the
United States, an apology was request
ed, but refused BY the Peruvian gov
ernment On the ground that il had
done nothing for which 70 apologize.
The Arequipa railroai property was
seized by the governments of Porn
a subsequent arrangement with the
bondholders the property has since
been exempted. The state govern
ment is awaiting further details before
proceeding further, but. as already
stated. no trouble is expected.
