as quietly as usual yesterday, although
there was very much less accomplished.
Passenger trains arrived and left on time,

eight of its twenty-five switch engines az

soon have full crew. The discharged

from Operator Rainey-Labor Notes
CHICAGO, May l6.-Everytbing was like
Sunday morning in the Chicago and
Northwestern yards yesterday when the
sun rose. Affairs were, in fact, even
quieter than is usual on that day. AS the
day wore on and trains began to arrive
the hum of work commenced, until by 10
O'Clock the new switchmen were handling
business as rapidly as the old crews. At
the company's headquarters it was stated
that all stations out of Chicago on the
line were manned by full forces. At
Winona three new crews did more work
than four oold crews had accomplished on
any day before for several weeks and
cleared the work up at an earlier hour
than usual. The reports from the Wis
consin division showed that up to mid
night of May IA fifty freight trains were
handled.

Ing Mr.. Sweeney copy OF the official
statement giving the reasons for the
action, such as has appeared in the news

who has been resident of Peru for the
last twenty-four years, and who has been
the head of the house OF Grace Bros. & Co.
for Ten years, has returned to this city.
Mr.. Eyre said that the origin of the revo-
luton in Chill was a deadlock between the
Gillian congress and the executive. The
congress felt dissatisfied with President
Balnaceda's measures, and especially the
pre- parations made for the coming cleo
{ ions. Congress, to bring pressure on
the executive, refused to vote the budget.
The president convened an extraordinary
session of congress, expecting that the
budget would be voted.

Wien he saw that it would not he he
exercised for the first time the preroga-
tive which he alleged was vested in the
president of declaring the extraordinary
session closed. Several attempts were
made to settle the differences between the
executive and Legislative branches of the
government, but all failed, resulting in
the revolution which broke out January
last. "The funds which Balmaceda re-
quires to carry on the war;" continued
Mr.. Eyre, "are obtained from the general
revenue of the country, principally the
custom houses of Valpar also and Talca-
huano, but as these were not sufficient to
meet his req -.irements he issued SI2, oO0.-
600 worth of paper money, which was
taken by the people and used to pay the
army.

payable to the Gillian government, which
amount to fully l0,0OO,000 silver dollars
annually. This is where the insurgents
obtain their funds to carry on the war.
As to the duration of the pending struc-
gle, IT is very hard to say, but am afraid
1t will last fer many months yet, as the
opposition is not likely to accept as a
solution to the difficulty the person. that
