They are far too heavy and clumsy for the

Santiago Sacked by q Mob.

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-The Herald's Val.
paraiso cable says: The Chanaral regi.
ment OF the Congressional army took for.
NAL possession of Santiago Sunday night,
and practically the last act in the bloody
drama OF revolution which has torn Chill
to pieces for the past seven months il
closed. The capital city was in the hands
OF bloodthirsty mob. and while it was
unable to satisfy its murderous instincts,
1t did destroy vast amount of property.
Comparative order has at last been re.
stored in this city. 1t took drastic mea-
sures to do it. Rioters who were caught
in the work were summarily dealt WITH
and many Of them were shot out Of hand.
These prompt measures have cooled the
ardor Of the law breakers at last, but riot
ing was not stopped until property esti-
mated to be worth 1900, 900 had been de-
stroyed. Admiral Brown has had long
consultation with the leaders Of the Junta
and his explanations have had the effect of
putting an end to the irritation against
the Americans. The Junta are exceed.
ingly anxious to secure recognition from
the United States government, and are
now hopeful that it will be accorded them

They Don't Like Eagan.

VALPARAISO, Sept. 2-There is no dis.
guising the fact that there is a very bitter
feeling against the Americans on the part
of the successful revolutionists. This feel
ing is so strong that unless it is placated
in some way it may seriously affect Amer
lean commercial interests in Chill for some
time. The capture Of the Itsta first created
the impression that the United States gov.
ernment was actively unfavorable to the
Evolutionary cause.
Then other things have served to
strengthen the feeling against the United
States. Not the least important among
them is the very general belief that Minis
ter Eagan has been an active partisan of
Balmaceda and has used his influence in
preventing the stats department from
recognizing the belligerent rights of the
insurgents.
Admiral Browns action in refusing to
give up the political refugees who have
found AN asylum aboard his ships has also
added to the general irritation.
The feeling against Mr. Egan is very VIC.
lent and there is little question that his
recall will soon be demanded.

THE SEAL CATCH,
The Company Ordered to Limit Its killiug
This Season to $500.

The Company Ordered to Limit Its killiug
This Season TO 1900.
The government has notified its agents on
the Alaskan seal islands to stop the killing Of
seals by the North American Commercial Com
pany when the catch has reached 1900. 1t has
been supposed that this order would not be
issued until after the English parliament had
passed the Boring sea bill and an agreement had
been formally arrived at between Great Britain
and the United States to submit the dispute to
arbitration. The President, however, is salts
fied that only some necessary formalities re-
main In the way of complete understanding.
The Rush carried orders limiting the catch to
$500. This shows that the government has
put into actual operation its proposition to
Great Britain pending settlement Of the long
controversy. II the recent negotiations should
be broken off and the efforts of the two gov
ernments come to naught it will be necessary
to send vessel to notify the seal company's
agent OF the fact and authorize a continuance
OF the now generally prohibited killing
1t is said that material progress IL being
made toward a temporary settlement Of the
Boring sea question, pending final arbitration
OF the points at issue. The President, Secre-
tary Foster and Attorney General Miller were
In conference yesterday discussing the situ-
alton. The revenue cutter Corwin IL now at
San Francisco awaiting final orders, and it is
expected that these will be sent to her within
the next few days, when she will proceed to
Berlng sea. After communicating with the
government agents at the seal islands 1t is pre-
sumed that the Corwin will assist the other
vessels in policing the sealing waters.
