CHILL IS AFTER DELAY.
SHE WANTS TIME TO GET IN WAR
LIKE SHAPE.

Naval nIeh at Washington Anxious to
Have the President ChoclSinate This
Scheme by TALKING warlike stand.
Senators Favor Doing what Italy Did.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. The navy depart
ment is in a warlil1e mood At all events
the principal naval authorities are talking
war fortissimo just now. From the talk in
the department today it appears that init
nations have been received from good au-
thorities in and about Chill that the Chilians
are delaying their response to our demand
for information concerning the Valparaiso
Incident for the purpose Of gaining time in
which to prepare for war with this country.
Getting a mig warship Ready.
The inference is that if Chill can persuade
the United States to wait few weeks longer
OF until the most formidable new war YES
sci of the Chilian feet, the Captain Pratt, is
completed and equipped she will be better
prepared for hostile demonstration. The
situation thus outlined was discussed with
eagerness at the navy department.
The opinion was freely advanced that
President Harrison would in all likelihood
take measures to chccRmate Chill in this
matter by sending a special message to con-
gress within the next two weeks, reciting
the fact that explanation and reparation had
been demanded of Chill without avail and
proclaiming the necessity Of informing Chill
that this country viii resort to extreme
measures il the desired response is further
delayed beyond a reasonable and specified
time.
She Could Bombnrd Our cities.
This course would take the Chiliaus short
handed and would prevent them from get
ting possession Of the Captain Prat This
vessel is now building in France and cannot
be finished in less than two months. If
meanwhile President Harrison and con-
gress should cause a declaration of war
against Chill, it would prevent France from
delivering the Captain Prat to Chill, and
would save New York and our other At
lantic cities from the danger Of lombard
ment by that vessel. The navy people say
that this action is what may reasonably be
expected from the president. They also
profess to have received intimations that
the Chilians have been lately communicat-
ing with French builders with a view to
hurrying along the construction Of the
Captain Prat
The sentiment among public men today
regarding this matter is far less warlille
than that which pervades the navy depart
ment Leading senators and representa-
tives believe that the preferable course of
action would be to give Minister Montt his
passports, recall Minister Dgan and termi-
nate official intercourse with Chill unless
she speedily comes to terms
