THIN CHILEAN WAR.
New York City the Actual Seat
of the Struggle.
Factions Backed by Rival Mer-
camille Houses.

Each of the Two Firms Accused Of Fur
nishing Arms, Ammunition and Money.
One to the Government Forces and the
Other to the Insurgents--A Suspected
Vessel Seized at San Diego. Cal.
New YORK, May 7.--Judging from
certain developments that have recently
taken place, and from rumors that We're
prevalent in business circles down town
Tuesday, the actual seat of the Chilian
war is located in this city.
1t is claimed that two prominent COM
mercial houses. both having very large
interests in Chilli, are furnishing arms,
ammunition, and money to the two fac
tions--the government, or Bahnaceda
forces, and to the revolutionists The
houses mentioned are opposed to
each commercially, and each is doing its
utmost to have the faction it supports
win.
News was received by one Of the firms
Monday from its agents in Buenos
Ayres that its competitor had sent a lot
of rifles and ammunition to Balmaceda's
forces, The agent stated that the firm
had shipped $50 cases of rifles and $780,
600 rounds of ammunition on the Brazil
mail steamships Vigilance and Advance
from this port to Santos. The ammu-
milton was transferred TO another steam
er and taken TO Montcvideo. AT Montive--
dio, so goes the story, the Chilian men,
of-war Almarante and Lynch, and the
Almarante Condell We're met and the
rifles and ammunition and small arms
put on board them The two war YES
sells then sailed for Valparaiso and de-
livered the arms to Balmaceda's forces.
One of the partners of the above firm
left New York, it is said, just before the
munitions of war were shipped, and
went directly TO Buenos Ayres, and from
there to Montiyedeo in order to be pres
ent at the transfer of goods TO the war
ships.
Commercial house No. 2, the revolu-
ZIONIST baclzer, has been charged by Bal
maceda's friends with aiding the insur-
gents by sending arms and cartridges
down there. The prize for which both
merchants are said to be struggling is
valuable concessions which have been
promised them by their respective par
ties in the event of victory. One Of the
New York houses Interested and back
ing the revolutionists ia said to practi-
cally control one of the Southern Amer
lean republics, The other has large
Brazilian interests.
1t was said Tuesday by many mer-
chants that the war in Chill was being
kept going by the efforts Of the two
merchants here in New York. There
have been several representatives. both
the contesting forces in Chill here in
New York for the past ten days. 1t is
presumed they are purchasing arms for
shipment

necessary facts to justify this grand jury
in presenting indictments"
O'NIalley MAKES Statement.

o'MalIey Makes a Statement.
Detective O'Malley has made a long
statement about the Italian troubles
He says his success as a detective caused
the city detectives and private detec-
tives to be jealous Of him long ago
They were so bitter against him that
when Hennessy was trying the case of
the men who aInbushed The Matrangos,
on May 6, and found that O'Malley was
on the same case, Hennessy dropped the
case and the Provenzanas were convicted
on evidence found by OMalley Then
Hennessy secured a new trial and got
the Provenzanas acquitted
OMalley first offered his services to
the city, but they were rejected, and
then the Matrangos wanted to engage
him. He at first refused to take their
case, but having received letter from
Committee Of Fifty" demanding that
he keep out of the case, he became angry
and took the Matrangos' side of the case,
and became satisfied of their innocence.
O'Malley gives a long review of the evi-
dence, and says the prosecution was
bare-faced conspiracy and disgrace TO
civilization. He gives many instances of
the way he has been, and is still watched
and prosecuted.

A SUSPICIOUS VESSEL


san lIleSOt Vat
SAN DIEGO, Cal, May THE steam
ship Etata, which put in to this port a
few days aga, it was said, for the pur-
poee of obtaining provisions for the war
ships now in possession of the Con-
gressional party Of Chill, has been seized
by the United States marshal. 1t was
also intimated that the vessels arrival
here had some connection with the ar
rival of the schooners Robert and
Minnie, off the Catalina Islands, loaded
with arms and ammunition.
The seizure Of the steamship Etata
was the outcome Of a free interchange
of dispatches, between the officials here
and the department at Washington.
c pt. Mauzeum, of the steamer, was
placed under arrest by Mr.. Marshal
Card.
"The marshal also despatched two tug
boats to seize two suspicious crafts lying
outside of the harbor. One of these is
supposed to be the schooner Robert and
Minnie, which wa>heretofore reported
to be lying off the Catalina islands, load
ed with arms and ammunition. The
other is war-vessel which has been
cruising around outside awaiting an OPP
pOrtunlty TO take on board the supplies
for the insurgcnt Chilian fleet that
might be Obtancd by the steamer Etata.
A party sent ont to investigate the
strange actions Of the vessel, and to get
within speaking distance, il possible, re-
turned and reported that they were un-
able to get within hailing distance of the
vessel because she drew off.
Finally, Secretary of State Blaine sent
orders from Washington to seize both
vessels if they could be captured within
the three mile limit It Is believed by
the officials here that as soon as the
Etata had received her supplies she in
tended TO meet the schooner Robert and
Minnie, take ON board the arms and
ammunition on board of that craft, put
TO sea and at the first favorable opportu-
nifty transfer the supplies and materials
of war to the insurgent cruiser.
Up to o'clock Wednesday morning
no word had been received from either
of the parties who had gone out to.seize
the supposed warship and the Robert
and Minnie.
The captain of the Etata was allowed
10 return to his vessel which is now in
charge of q deputy United States mar

NERRASKA,S GOVERNOR.
Boyd Ousted by the Supreme Court of the
State--The Cause.

State--The Cause.
LINCOLN, Neb., May 7.-Just before
the adjournment of the supreme court
Tuesday afternoon a decision was hand
ed down in the Thayer-Boyd quo-war-
ranto case. A judgment of custer was
rendered against Governor Boyd in favor
of Ex-Governor Thayer.
The opinion was written by Judge
Norval, Judge Cobb concurring, but
Judge Maxwell dissented, Counsel for
Governor Boyd announced Tuesday
that they will at once apply for a super
sedeas, for the purpose of taking the
case, ON a writ of error, to the United
States supreme court. They claim that
the question of naturalization is Fed
eral one, and they arc confident of sue
cess in the court of last resort.
The writ of custer was served on Gov
elnor Boyd about o'clock He received
it calmly, and said: Il am ready to turn
over the Office now" His attorney, John
d. Howe, OF Omaha, who had Just ar
rived. requested him to wait moment,
and Immediately went to the supreme
court room to file motion for a stay,
but as the Judgment had already been
entered and the writ served it was too
late. Boyd accordingly turned over the
office to Governor Thayer, who had in
the mean time taken the oath of office
and filed his bond.
Boyd Not Native.
There is no dispute that Governor
Boyd, Democrat, was elected by II ,331
votes, against Richards, Republican,
6S.S1S. It is admitted that Governor
Boyd is not "a natural born citizen" of
the United States, and that he never
took out naturalization papers. But
Governor Boyd and his adherants CON
tend that the act which admitted Ne
brasky to statehood naturalized all the
residents thereof, and Governor Boyd,
at the time of the admission of Nebras-
ka, was resident therein.

Emigrants to America Actually Depopu-
lating Italian Cities.
ROME, May r. America is draining
away the population of some parts Of
Italy with remarkable rapidity. The
exodus is most most marked in the Pole
sine region, on the Po, near Parma,
where 400 out of 1000 families emigrated
this year. Ninety-five families left
Crespino together last week. Gavello,
which year ago had 5000 inhabitants,
now has but 500. Polesella has lost
at one time. The movement from Ro-
vigO, on the Adige, is so extensive that
special trains are run from there to
Genoa daily to accommodate the emf
grants
The effect Of, so many departures is be-
ginning to be shown in an alarming
manner. Husbandry and trade languish
for lack Of employees. The authorities
would gladly adopt some method of
checking the movement if they could

The Opinione says: 'Mr. Blaine's

the question. The green book proved
that the telegram to Baron Fava was
communicated in confidence to Mr..
Blaine and President Harrison. It is
regrettable that minister of great
power should persist in quibbling while
the principle at issue is unsolved."

calm consideration of the question
