THE GILLIAN SITUATION.

AnaIrs Assuming More Stable Character
The United States WIN Recognize the
New Government In Due Season-Pro-
ceedIngs Against the Itata Ordered.
Discontinued.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The Chilian
situation is gradually assuminga stable
character, and less interest is manifest
ed in IL in official circles, since 1t is
taken for granted that the new govern
ment, with Gen. Montt at its head, is
fully installed in the confidence of the
people, and all that is lacking to an Of
fetal recognition by the various powers
is the perfection of the details of gov
esnnenL .
Minister Egan has full instructions on
that point, and when he indicates TO the
United States that the time is ripe for
such action the state department will
formally recognize the accredited rep
resentatives Of the Montt government
at Washington, and the cordial rela-
tions which have always existed be-
tween the United States and Chill will
again be resumed.
- As an evidence OF this, is said that
the United States has dropped the
case of the Itata, the insurgent vessel
which was libeled at San Diego, Cal,
for furnishing arms 10 the insurgent
man-of-war "Esmeralda." II is alleged
in official circles that TO continue tho
prosecutions under the changed condi-
tions Of affairs would be to exhibit u
feeling of unfriendliness TO the Montt
government
