A MILD REVOLUTION
Consul DOugherty Says the War
in Chill is Ridiculous.
BALMACEDAN OFFICERS CAUGHT
They Had Escaped Into Peru-Bold and
Daring Bank Robbery at Column
bus Grove, Ohio.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-The Post this
morning prints an interview with Aquilla
J.Dougherty, United States consul at Callao
Peru, who has just returned from that
country. He says the present war in Chill
is the most ridiculous revolution he ever
knew or read of. 1t does not deserve the
name of a revolution. The revolutionists
are stationed at Iquique, several hundred
miles from Santiago where Balmaceda has
his headquarters. Balmaceda has force

carry across it that which is necessary TO
support an army. The insurgents have no
ships with which to carry their men by
sea, and if they had they would
soon be destroyed, for Balma-
ceda has the whole coast protected
by torpedo boats. Balmaceda is well sup
piled with the sinews of war and goes on
with the government, ignoring TO great
extent the efforts Of the insurgents. The
idea OF party of revOlutionists being 40
miles away from people against whom they
have revolted, and totally unable 10 come
nearer to them. strikes an American as
being very far removed from what we
would call an Instruction or rebellion. In
the meantime, while opposing the party in
power, the insurgents are living well and
some may be prospecting. They occupy
the rich district of Taraparca, with bound
less quantities Of nitrates. This territory
of Chill years ago was wrested from Peru.
From the large revenues they derive from
these nitrates they are enabled to feed
themselves and live comfortably. Mer-
chant vessels put in at Iauique and trade in
this product as they did before the rebel
