SANTIAGO DE CHILL Oct 23.-United States
Minister Egan has received from Capt schley
ofthe United States steamer Baltimore full
report Of the recent attack on the Baltimore's
sailors. The report shows the attack to have
been brutal and cowardly. and to have been
made because the mon were Am orleans. Mr.
Egan will present tho matter to his Govern
ment. but will not make formal demands upon
the Gillian Government until he hears from
the State Department.
The Gillian Government has informed Mr..
E9an that safe conducts will not be issued for
the refugees now in tho United States Lega-
ton. Tho supposed ground for this refusal is
that the men are criminals. Mr.. Egan contin-
ues TO demand safe conducts for the men.
The question now appears far from settlement.
