QUEER ACTION.
yhe Peruvian Governments Department
Toward Insurgents.


WATHINGToN, May ia cablegram
has been received at the state depart
ment from Consul Daugherty at Callao,
Peru, relating to battle fought IN that
neighborhood. The consul cabled that
Cllilian mail-of-war had been worsted
by an insurgent cruiser, and had come
into Callao for repairs. He further stated
that the Peruvian authorities had re-
fused to allow the man-of-war to make
the repairs and fit out again.
The consul does not give the name OF
the ship, but it was probably one OF the
large cruisers of which the Balmaceda
government Kept control. AS Callao IS
several hundred miles north of Iquique,
the insurgents headquarters, the infer
ence is that the civil war is far from
ended, and that the snsurgents equal the
government III naval strength.
The action Of the Peruvian author1-
ties would indicate that they are not
friendly to the Balmaceda government,
and probably recognize it simply on a
level with the insurgent as belligerent
power.

AN INFANTS SWIFT RIDE,

1t Goes Sweeping Down Steep and
Rocky Hill.
BRAZIL, Ind, May 15.-lThe two young
sons Of H. G. Miller, Of Knights Addi-
ton, took their little 9-months-old sister
riding in the baby carriage. The car
rage got away from the children at the
top of high and steep hill. 1t rushed
with lightning speed down the incline,
when the wheels struck a rock, throw
ing the baby out. 1t was picked up for
dead, but recovered consciousness. The
infant was terribly cut and bruised, and
received internal injuries that may re-
suit fatally.

Oyer the Pardoning of Young Piatt by
Governor Campbeu.
COLUMBUS, o.. May 15.-Hon. s. M.
Taylor and Prosecuting Attorney G. B.
Heiserman, of Champaign county, who
were in the city, state that the feeling
at Uurbana over the action of Governor
Campbell in pardoning young Rivers
Piatt is intense and may take form in
the shape of an indignation meeting to
express disapproval of the governors
action. Prosecutor Heiserman has called
on the governor and protested strongly
against the latter's action in releasing
young Piatt, and if the prosecutors
statements are true, the young man was
fortunate in getting off with an eighteen
months sentence.

THE WAR SHIPS.
The EsmeraIda and the Char
lesion Nearing Each Other.
No News Of an Engagement Yet
THE ITATA NOT OvERTAKEN.

CRY OF Mexico, May ia dispatch
received late last night from Acapulco
says: The Chillian cruiser Esmeralda
entered this port yesterday and sailed
again to-day. Several of her officers
were ashore and used the wires and made
various inquiries regarding the action OF
the United States, showing that they had
been informed that the cruiser Charles
ton had been sent in pursuit of the ltata.
1t is said that she has steamed north to
intercept the Itata and protect her, should
the Charleston attempt to capture her.
The officers who came ashore were very
reticent. but from one of the sailors 1t
was learned that they expected to sight
the Itata and act as her convoy down the
coast. The Esmeralda has large crew
and from appearances they are veterans
and will fight. The opinion prevails here
that should the Charleston attempt to
capture the :Itata an engagement will
take place and the United States cruiser
will get the worst of it.
The above dispatch was confirmed at
the War Department, but the officers
were inclined to be reticent.
The captain of the fishing boat, which
was nearly run down by large steamer
which carried no lights, says that after
his boat was out of danger, bright,
binding light was suddenly flashed upon
his craft, and that it was undoubtedly
produced by an electric flash light from
a man-of-war. He said further that the
vessel was steaming north. With this
fact in view it was little doubted that
the Esmeralda was going north to inter-
cept the Itata. 1t is the general idea
that the Esmeralda meet the Itata before
she should be overtaken by the Charles
ton the arms that she has and the cargo
will be transferred.
If naval engagement takes places, il
cannot be delayed, if the Charleston is
on the right track, much later than to-
morrow, and will doubtless be fought of
the coast of the State of Jalisco.
