CONGRESSISTS VICTORIOUS.
BALMACEDA's FORCES DEFEAT
ED NEAR VALPARAISO.
His Overthrow CompIete--The ChiIIaI
President n Fugitive.

The paTfIculars Of the battle fought In the
suburbs Of Y alpArsso on Saturday last are
lacking IN tttAl. but enough is known &c
condEm HE utter defeat Of BAlmAceda's
forces and the overthrow Of the present
Chiilan government. A dispatch to the
congressional ENJOYS at Washington, signed
ErrezuriE says:
Commander MOntt of the congressional
naval fore :, in the battle OF COncon the
enemy lost 1900 men and an equafnumber OF
prisoners were captured. Two thousand
rides were taken and number OF field
pieces. Our loss was 3ON, ana among tue
killed we're five officers. In the battle OF
Placlla the defeat OF Balmaceda was com
plete. His two generals Barbosa and Aleer-
RIGA were killed, and many other ofncers.
Vicuna. the president-elect, has escaped on
board a foreign war vessel. lhe Where
abouts of Balmaceda are unknown
The battle of COncOn, the envoy says, was
fought on the first day the insurgent army
landed in the vicinity OF Valparaiso. The
battle Of Placilla was fought Saturday.
Assistant Secretary Wharton telegraphed
President Harrison the meagre tcegramS
which he has received from Chill. For the
present the president proposes to continue tC

his instructions Assistant Secretary Whar-
ton declined to receive them even unofiicially

ceda gives up the struggle. This, the Chill
ian minister and the CHILEAN representative,
Mr. Prescott, say, will not happen for weeks,
If 1t happens at all. They say that Balma'
ceda can easily hold the congrcssionalisi
back until the warships come from Fravo.
and that then he will make short work with
the insurgents, as they call them.
1t is refreshing to hear Prescott South
Carolinian, who went with his state In 1861
holding forth on the sinfulness of the re.
bellion, and quoting against the recognition
of the congrcssiOnslists the points made by
Secretary Seward against the recognition OF
the confederate states by England and
France.
The Paris agents OF the CHILEAN congres.
sonal party have received an official dis.
pat, h from Santiago saying that the con,
gressional party is in control of the capital
that Balmaccda fled on Friday night, and
that the country is tranquil. Buenos Ayrcs
dispatches say that BalmaCeda resigned il
favor of Gen. Bauuedano.

DEATH IN THE FOG.
Fearful Mortality in London Darkens
the Merry Holiday Season.
THE CITY Is ALMOST DESERTED.
Urgent Demand for an Invention to Clear
the Atmosphere.
GOOD CHANCE FOR AN INVENTIVE MIND
rBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH !


e LONDON, Dec 26.-[Copyright]- London
ers spent Christmas day and Christmas
week under a pail of impenetrable gloom.
1t is five days since we have seen the sky.
Since Monday there has been a continuous
darkness upon the city, and gas and electric
lights have been of slight service in the
strees, and only partially served to dis
shops. AS a result business has been al
most at standstill, traffic has been delayed
on all the railroads, and London is deserted
of all who can flee from her.
A fog such as has this week afflicted the
metropolis is a far more serious calamity
than most people imagine. In addition to
the extraordinary annoyance caused by the
irritated throats and smarting eyes Of those
who venture into the streets and the dis
comfort and inconvenience in getting from
one place to another, whether on foot or by
means of vehicles, the fog means fearful
increased death rate Some idea may be
gathered of it from the following newspaper
paragraph, which relates only to one Lon
don district:
nile ne was nOld1ng an 1nquest IN Ban
croft wood, last evening, Mr.. Wynne E.
Baxter was told by one of his officers that
there were seven bodies lying in the popular
mortuary awaiting inquests. The bodies
were those of persons drowned accidentally
in the mill wall dock since the beginning of
the fog. The officials of the docks, he said,
were busy all day dragging for bodies. The
Coroner said the mortuary from the fog
among people suffering from lung diseases
was much greater than that arising from ac-
cident last year. He traced the cause of
death in no fewer than % cases to two days
of black fog. He traced these p cases to the
two particular days, and was satisfied that
they originated from the black fog that then
hung over the locality.
In addition to deaths by drowning and
from lung diseases, there are an almost in
credible number due to persons being run
over by cabs and omnibuses in the streets,
where the range of vision during the entire
week has not been six feet. A humorous
feature of the situation is the despair os the
newspapers, as expressed in their daily
leaders. Why, every newspaper in London
has demanded more than once this
week, doesn't someone invent pro-
cess for getting rid of fogs?
Why will an intelligent and self
populace suffer namely under
a calamity that ought to- be remedied.
The Times says that if such an affliction as
a London black fog of weeks duration
were visited upon New York American
genius would rise to the occasion and in
vent some method of dispelling it. More |
than one newspaper has cited the case Of
the rain makers in the United States, with |
a view to stimulating scientific research in |
The matter of vanquishing King Fog, but |
not even the most conscientious writer of |
letters to the editor ventures to suggest a |
method of exterminating the evil.

STRAUSS GRAND OPERA.
A Capital Story Told in Its PIot-The Veter-
an Musician Dyes His Hair So His Ad-
mirers Won't Be Reminded How Old
They Are GROWING
rBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. ]

TBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.1
LONDON, Dec. 26.-It is announced from
Vienna that johann Strauss is in excellent
health and will conduct in person, on the
evening of New Years Day, his first grand
opera, ''Ritter Pasman." The story of the
opera is a capital one. Young King Robert,
of Hungary, has wandered with his cour-
tiers during hunt to the castle of
Ritter Pasman, fierce, brave, bibulous
nobleman with beautiful yonng wife.
The King, who is not recognized puts on
Pamaa,s's helmet, and during the knights
absence, steals kiss from his wife, at the
same time revealing his rank to her. She
resists the Kings advances, however, and
respecting her virtue His Majesty hastily
quits the castle. Pasmas returns,
and learning what has happened he
gathers his retainers and pursues the
offender, followed, unknown to him, by his
wife and her maids
All meet in the third act in the royal
palace, where the King has just been
married. The consequent festivities enable
the composer to introduce polkas, waltzes
and Hungarian czardas, which, it is said,
are likely to take Vienna by storm. The
young Queen is of a jealous disposition, and
the King, fearing Pa$ma,s's vengeance, places
his fool on the throne to hear the knights
complaint, and himself dons the testers
garb. The fool. who knows everything, de-
cides that the knight shall be allowed to
kiss the offenders wife, and the Queen, dis
covering the joke, declares herself willing,
knowing also that the fool is her husband.
The King vehemently protests against the
decision, but Pasma1 acceptsiit as eminently
just, and kisses the Queen in the presence of
the court The Queen, with difficulty, pla
Gates the furious Kiag, and all ends merrily.
Strauss, by the way, although &c years
old, dyes his hair and beard jet black, and
in other ways strives to look about 80. The
correspondent Of the Standard explains that
Strauss knows that "two generations have
seen him, violin in hand, stand before the
orchestra in the Volks-Garten and in other
public places, swinging his body gracefully,
while beating time, and he does not like to
remind his former admirers how old they
are -
