Don Pedro Mount Says the Half
Has Not Been Told.
THE BONDARDaESI OF lQUIQUI CITY
Citizens Fired Upon Right and Left by
Col. Soto Nine Blocks OF Buildings
Set Ahre-Other DastardIy Acts
of Baimaceda's Men.

New YORK, June 27.-Don Pedro
Mount, of Chill, who arrived here to-
day, when shown the article in the
United Press dispatch, referring to Bal
maceca's cruelties. stated that the
actual truth far exceeded the published
account of the affair. The whole of
Chill, he SAID, was suffering dire dis
tress rs the result of the cruel war, and
all classes were losing their property,
whether IN city or in country. He had
no doubt OF the ultimate success of the
revolutionists, as the people of Chill
were almost unanimously with the con-
stitutional party. Signoi Mount did
not care to talk Tor publication at pres
ent. He said he preferred to state his
case later on, and for the American
people to Judge as to which cause was
Just. From Mr.. Schiell q promine mt
merchant of lqu:que, who ar
rived with Don Pedro Mount, q
graphic account of the bombardment
and destruction of portion of Iquique
was obtained. He says the fight began
at 5 o'clock i'll the morning. Many
citizens We're gathered in force on tine
roof Of the cnssom house ane vt this
prison. Col. Soto, IN command of
Balmaceda's troops, Immediately at
tackled these places. A small detach-
ment of troops also went through the
streets shooting at small bodies of citl-
zens, right and left. Soto's men then
set fire to a block adjoining the custom
house IN hopes of smoking out the citi-
zens. Nine blocks of the best buildings
of Iquique were burned to the ground.
At 4 p. IN. a big force of men landed
from the fleet. and Balmaceda's forces
retreated. Next day Soto surrendered
to the revoluuonis.s and Iquique has
since been the Official headquarters of
the constitutional party.

wAsHIxcros, June e7.-There is no
limit to the fancles which public men
cultivate. but one of the prettiest is
that of ex-senator Palmer, of Michigan.
IL is not horse or dog, nor game
rooster, but little boy. "a genuine Cas-
titan, whom the ex-senator ran across
while travelling in Spain. The chiid's
father was an officer with more chill
dren and less money than he felt the
need of. Senator Palmer's circum-
stanceewere quite the opposite, and the
logical result of the situation ensued.
The father Was willing that the child
might be cared for 10y the Senator. who,
with his wife, having learned TO love II
deeply during their solourn IN SPAN,
could not bear to part with II, and SO
the boy was brought TO America. The
little fellow was not old enough To

stance. Indeed, he has particular diff

sorts of pretty tricks with il, seldom
omitting to give IT the preliminary ''e"
| sound that would he expected in his
| native tongue. Ssh" is lar beyond his
abilities and it has SO far proved too
much for him. Repeated efforts bv the
doung members of the Palmer family
to get him to pronounce the word
"ship' bring forth an emphatic but
earnestly meant "s-s-slp."
Not only does he add the charms Of
babyhood to the quaIntness OF a for
| eigner, but
He Is a Thoroughbred.
A horseman would grow most enthusi-
astic over an animal that showed the
"points" that this little protege OF good
| fortune shows. His hair IS wavy and
beautiful; ms eyes are big, dark and
expressive, as only Castllian's can be;
his features are most delicately nodded
ard as to form he is an Apollo in minia-
ture. In fact, so beautifully perfect is
his figure that his parents by adoption
had a cast taken Of his whole body IN
order to have his graceful shape pre-
served in marble. Already he is the
despot of the household and relgns
supreme in the Palmers' big house in
Michigan. No quiet could possibly
eclipse TINS midget in interest, so he is
always present, even at late dinners.
He
Occupies tho Seat OF Honor
hy his proud stepfather, who lends de-
voted attention to every Spanish lisp.
No founding prince ia fairy vale

graces or wealth either. for Papa
