 RevOlt-0mcers Shot to Death-Mof
 RuIe in Its Worst Form at Coronel- Chilians Incensed at Minister Egan
 -More of Balmaceda,s Cruelty. l VALPARAIso, Sept. 2.-The government
 troops at Talcahuano, which were taken to
 that port recently from Coquimbo, revolt ed when they heard of the defeat of Balma- ceda. They shot to death all their officers and disbanded. Nearly 4,000 coal miners joined them, and together they have prac- tically taken possession of the town of Cor onel. All sorts of excesses have been com- l mitted by them, and mob rule in its worst form prevails. A German and English warship have gone to Coronel to protect the interests of foreign residents there. Senor Jorge Montt, General Canto and oth- CTS of the congressional chiefs arrived in Santiago yesterday morning They were enthusiastically received by the people. General Baquedano, the acting presi- dent, received them officially. The other members of the Junta are expected in Val paraiso to-day. They will at once proceed to Santiago, when the question of a new election and the reorganization of the gov ernment will be considered. There is no disgusting the fact that there is a very bit ter feeling against the Americans on the part of the successful revolutionists. This feeling is so strong that unless it is pla- cated in some way it may seriously affect American commercial interests in Chili for some time. The feeling against Minister Egan is very violent and there is little question that his call will soon be de- manded. The German admiral settled the question as to the disposition of the refu- Ca, l<s lx,c the corvette Alexandrine north yester- day, presumably to Callao. Among those aboard the warship was President-elect Vicuna. The records st Santiago confirm the statement that on August IS President Balmaceda ordered forty-two young men to be shot to death. They were charged with conspiring against the government Colonel Carvallo, commanding the troops at Coquimbo, has made formal tender of submission and there will be no fight at that place. Order has been fully restored in Santiago and in this city, and business at this place is gradually being resumed.
 LONDON, Sept.2.-An injunction applied for on behalf of an agent of the Junta, or provisional government of ChiH, was granted in court to-day restraining the City bank from paying or negotiating, un- til further order issues, a bill of exchange for $75, 900 drawn on the National bank of Chili, made payable to Senor Joaquin Go day, President Balmaceda's chief financial agent in Europe, and accepted by the city bank, but which had not been discounted.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-At last the de- partment of state has heard directly from Minister Egan. The news came in the form of the following cablegram,
 SANTIAGO, Sept. l, 1891. Blaine, Washington.
 A decisive battle Valparaiso, August 2S The revolution entirely successful President Balma- ceda resigned August 29. Revolutionists fully installed Everything tranquil EGAN.
 The delay in receiving this report has been solved by the department. Acting Secretary Wharton has received informa- ton that the telegraphic communication between Santiago and Valparaiso, the west ern cable terminus, had been cut and has just been restored, and that the line east ward from Santiago to Buenos Ayres has been interrupted by heavy snows in the Andes mountains. Although Minister Egan's cablegram officially indicates the success of what he describes as the revo- lution, he has not yet informed the depart ment of state that government has been set up that may be recognized as govern ment of the people representative of the country. The department will probably await further detailed information from the minister before according formal recog- hilton to the new government.
