\ MINISTER h&AN GHDiPS from santiago,
i Chilli, that an armed force congregated
about the headquarters or the United
States legation in the CHILEAN capital
and demanded him to give up number
i OF Balmaceda's followers who had taken
/ refuge at the legation and sought pro.
lection under the flag of the United
i States. That he had demanded of the
Gillian authorities the dispersement of
the force and in It's place Gordon OF po-
lice had been posted. The officers were
interfering with the fngress and egress
OF those who had business with the le-
CATION and for the present not only was
| the official business at standstill, but
the neighborhood of the legation had
become Q bedlam, the privileges of the
representatives were restricted, and the
family privileges of the minister COM
pietely dismembered. Appeals of Min
lister Egan were drowned In the din of
the Chilians for the blood Of the ref
uges within the legation doors. The
authorities at Washington Immediately
ordered several vessels OF war to the
scene and instructed Minister Egan to
demand relief from harrassment. A
| Gordon of United States marines will be
sent on shore to replace the CHILEAN
police.
IT is possible that the shortest road to
reduction of the burdens of Europe
from vast ornaments may be found to
lie through the increase of them. AS
the nations best able to afford the in
crease withdraw larger proportion of
their young men from productive in
dustry, and spend larger share of the
national product upon the army. and as
they are initiated by nations less able to
do this, there must come time when
the whole system will break down under
its own weight That point has nearly
been reached in Russia, which, as the
least civilized and least modern of Eu-
ropean counties. is the least able to sus-
tain the burden of war taxes, aggra-
waited as they are by official extrava-
gance and corruption. According to
some observers, Italy is approaching
the same point through her anxiety to
rank as military power with richer
and more populous nations. At any
rate, it is impossible to see how relief is
to come, unless it comes from the carry
ing to an intolerable extreme of the ex-
listing system of maximum force in
time of peace.
