Despairing of a Successful Escape He
Puts a Bullet Through His Head--The
InfurIated Citi4ens of Valparaiso thu
inmate the City in Honor of the Event.
President Balmaceda, of Chill, shot him
self through the temple In his room at the
Argentine legation, Santiago, ON satur-
day morning, September 10. The story Re
came known in Valparaiso yesterday after
noon and created the greatest excitement.
That evening the city was brilliantly illu-
minated and on every hand was heard the
sounds OF rejoicing. 1t now seems that the
story that Balmaceda escaped on the United
States steamer San Francisco was enron
eous. Instead he left Santiago August 90
In the hope of escaping from the country.
Finding every avenue closed he returned
TO the city September 2 and went direct to
the Argentine legation. Since then he has
been extremely nervous. No one save the
Argentine minister and one man devoted to
Balmaceda was permitted to see him. About
8 O'Clock Saturday morning pistol shots
were heard ia Balmaceda's room, and
Senior Uriburia rushing in found that the
ex-president h I'd just put a bullet into his
brain. The junta was notified and COM
mittee Immediately went to the house and
viewed the body. AS the news spread
crowds Of people gathered around the Ar
gentine legation. They cheered. hooted
and nearly went into q frenzy over the
death of their late enemy. Above all were
heard shouts congratulating him that in
taking his own life he had escaped a worse
fate from the hands of the tunta
