THE CHILEAN REBEL ENVOY.
Has not Called at State Department
Fiendish Cruelty of Balmaceda.

WASHINGTON CRY, June 30.-Mr. Mont,
envoy of the congressional party of Chile,
has not yet called at the department of
state. A friend of the congressional party,
speaking of the situation today. said it
was true it was the policy of the United
States not to recognize the revolutionary
party, but it was hoped to establish to the
satisfaction of the government of the
United States that it was not the con-
gressionalist, but Balmaceda's govern
ment which was the revolutionary party.
Senior Montt today received from the
chief OF the navy dispatch denying the
truth of the report that he had notified
the American admiral at Iquique that the
crews of the American vessels ought not
to 60 on shore, as they would run the risk
of being assaulted by the reyolutionist
MODS.
Orders have been sent to the Pensacola,
now at Callao, to return to the United
States and be repaired at the Mare Island
navy-yard. Admiral Mccain, who is
commander-in-chief of the South Atlantic
squadron, will also come TO the United
States by steamer, leaving Admiral Brown
in command of the United war vessels now
in the neighborhood of Chile.
New York, June 30.-A correspondent
at Santiago writing on May 30, says: In
this city today the shooting of the officers
and sailors of the torpedo launch Gualda
was the special feature of a whole
sale execution. The men were
marched to the plaza, where they were
shot down by companies of sharpshooters.
This butchery not only caused indigna-
ton among the friends of the dead, but
also among Balmaceda's ardent defenders.
The dead sailors and officers were in
charge of the steam torpedo launch Gualda
in Valparaiso bay. One night the CON-
mander proposed to his crew to desert and
go over to the congressional party.
All acquiesced except one. He no.
titled the authorities at once, and
the men were captured, taken to
Valpar also and thrown into prison.
One by one they were tortured and
literally made to go without food and
water for two or three days time. The
cells which the men occupied were reeking
with filth and vermin. On the day on
which they met their death, they were so
weak they had to be assisted to walk. The
fortunes to which prisoners are subjected
by Balmaceda's agents Is almost past
belief. The correspondent relates other
horrible atrocities committed by the
adherents of Balmaceda. Information
he says, has reached there that the insur-
gents have about 10000 men in Iquique,
and that they are waiting for word
to march TO Coquimbo and the south.
Balmaceda fears this, and extraordinary
activity reisns here, everything possible
being done to receive the enemy. 1t is
stated that all negotiations for peace have
ended

MOURNING IN CAMP.
Franklin Miners Bury Victims
of Black Sunday.
MILITIA GUARDS THE coRTEoE.
DwslIers ON Flats Say Guards Started
the Riot-Black Diamond Miners
Are still Out.

At franklin everything was quiet yes
terday, for It was day of mourning over
the bodies of the two men killed on Sun
day. A large funeral was held over their
remains, which were inferred at Black
Diamond
The trouble at the latter place has broken
out afresh on account of the action of the
Black Diamond company in throwing its
mines open to oil white miners. The
company had tried to negotiate with the
labor union to get the old men back, but
failing in this effort decided to act indie
pendently of the union. Though the feel
ing ran high there was no serious disturb
ance. At Newcastle over 100 negroes were
at work.
Colonel ]. c. Haines, who left Franklin
at about $50 last night and arrived here
at 10 O'Clock, on his way to Gilman with
Company ID, said to Posr-IsTELLiGEScER
reporter:
We left everything quiet. and anticipate no
further disturbance at Franklin. Indeed had
thought there would have been trouble
should not have come away. Captain Joseph
Green remains in charge OF Company B.
At present the whites are in greater fear than
the negroes They wanted to go TO Black Dia-
mond In the afternoon to attend the funeral OF
the two dead miners, and they came
70 me asking me to protect
their cabins with their wives and children from
the attacks OF the negroes. Accordingly l
ordered detachment to go on guard there An
other detachment was at the negro camp, so that
the honors were pretty evenly distributed.
The feeling at Black Diamond il very bitter,
very intense. Word came over to franklin that
the strikers were so wrought up after the fun
eral that they drove the telegraph operator from
his Office.

Consul Ewing's Conduct ut Whafeon.
W.


Notwithstanding the general kindly feeling
that existed among the excursionists to Wnat.
com yesterday slight unpleasantness oceuneo
which reflects no credit on q few denagogu1
who do not seem TO have yet learned ORDINARY
courtesy. The facts are briefly az follows: ~
arch had been built by the mayor ana some
prominent citizens of Whatcom and on y ~
the motto, "welcome TO the C. p. r" ON eitne!
corner of this arch was hung the stars an0
stripes, while in the apex the tallest pos ne
union jack was flown 70 the breeze. Just soous
the time the train bearing the guests was reaoy
leave for home, some one OF the lower ana moIs
ignorant class of Americans noticed tnst -
union Jack was more conspicuous than the -
and stripes. An cutlery was Immediately a. q
and fireman placed q ladder against tne -
and was about to haul down the British -
when the mayor inquired what right ne nso ~. y
do so. The fireman desisted, but the crowo 49,
cried out, and at last a compromise was eness.
by placing the United States ensign rignt ~
the union jack. Il Is needless to say tnss
Canadians present were anything but plssss
yet they are assured the mayor and shs nes
class of citizens of Whateom were a. M
panied over the affair as were the Canadians
There is one feature of the occurrence =
which attention has TO be drawn. That's %
conduct of one Jay Ewing, American consul.
agent at Vancouver, who on previous oecas'o.
has had his name figuring in type - the II
ponent of a blatant sort Of alleged patriotism
the United States, which even the neHspa1~H
of his own country condemn. He was arn0nkh
the crowd who raised the cutlery against -
British flag, crying "Pull it down." and un@
the United States ensign was being hauled "
he stood around with his lungs expanded
