Associated Press Dispatches.
New York, Sept. 2. The Herald's
Valparaiso specia! says: Balmaceda will
not have as much money when he
reaches London as he thought he would,
by million dollars, Deputy Verduga
was captured today at Yalca while on
his way out of the country, with the
purpose, it is supposed, of joining Bal
maceda. When turned over to the
authorities at Santiago he had 100000
in Chilean bank notes and $500, 900 in
drafts on London. This was confscated
by the junta. There is little doubt that
Balmaceda is making his way over the
Andes through South pass. 1t would
be impossible to stop him'now
THE FEELING AGAINST EGAN.
Minister Egan's friends are doing
their utmost to dispel the impression
that he has acted Extensively as parti-
san of the late government. One of
them, named Spencer, is authority for
the statement that it was largely due to
Egan's efforts that the president de-
cided to turn over the government to
Baquedano, and give UP the struggle.
This was due, says Spencer, in the face
of the opposition of Balmaceda's minis
ters, who insisted that the victory of
the revolutionists at Placilla, was not
decisive, and were desirous of keeping up
the fight despite the fall OF Valparaiso.
Be this as it may, the bitter feeling
against Egan in particular, and Amer
leans in general, shows no sign of abate-
ment. The Congressional leaders pro-
Tess to be puzzled az the continued re-
fusal of the state department at Wash
ington to recognize their envoys at the
capitol, and are generally inclined to
attribute the hardness to ulterior mo-
tives, though just what these may be,
they do not say. There are vague
rumors of fat contracts and nitrate beds
in the air, but nothing definite is speci-
fed.
RESTORING ORDER.
No further news has been received
from the mob-stricken town of Coronel.
1t is understood that the provisional
government has taken steps which will
insure the restoration of order very soon.
Probablysome fighting may occur before
the mob is quelled, and the leaders will
most certainly be shot when captured.
The members OF the junta are expected
to arrive tonight or tomorrow on q
steamer, and great preparations have
been made for their reception.
Many bodies of the dead from the bat
tie field were buried today, and the
balance will probably be cremated to-
morrow. The wounded are all receiving
the best of attention.
Intendente Walker Martinez has got
the city government in working order,
and the place is gradually settling down
to the ante bellum state. The same is
true of Santiago. A proclamation has
been issued that all harboring Balma-
ceda's officials will be shot.
BALMAcEDA's FAMILY.
Balmaceda, when he fed, left his
family behind. They are now under the
care of his brother-in-law, Senior Torres,
who is a strong supporter of the Con-
gressionalists.
EGAN AT LAST HEARD FROM.
WASHINGTON, Sept. AT last the
department of state has heard directly
from Minister Egan. The news came in
the following cablegram:
SANTIAGO, Sept. 1.
Blaine, Washington:
Decisive battle at Valparaiso, 2Sth ol
August. Revolution entirely successful.
President Balmaceda resigned the 29th.
Revolutionists installed. Everything
tranquil. (Signed) EGAN.
The delay in receiving this report is
solved by the department. Acting
Secretary Wharton has received
information that all the tele
graphic connection between Santiago
and Valparaiso, the western terminus
had been cut and just repaired, ano
that the line eastward from Santiago tc
Buenos Ayres was interrupted by SHOWS
on the Andes mountains. Although the
cablegram officially indicates the sue
cess OF what he describes as the revolu.
ton, he has not vet. informed the de-
partment of state that a government
has been set up that may be recognized
as the government of the people of the
country. Accordingly the department
will await further information from the
minister before according formal recog
milton to the new government.
BALMAcEDA's PELF ENJoINED.
LONDON, Sept. 2.--An injunction ap
piled for on behalf of the agent of the
iunta or provisional government o
Chile, was granted in court today, re
straining the City bank from paying o
negotiating until the case is decided b,
trial, or until ant0rder is issued, a bill
of exchange for $4,000 drawn on tn
National bank OF Chile, made payabl
to joaquin, President Balmaceda's chic
financial agent in Europe, and accepted
by the City bank, but which has no
been discounted.
