The gentleman Of the picture may be heard
Of again any time in connection with the
trouble with Chilli. Men ofhis ship, the Balti-
more, were the American seamen assaiIed in
the streets OF Valparaiso, and the report writ
ten by him is the document on which is based
the demands made by the United States gov
eminent AGAINST that Of Chilli. Tho latest from
the captain. who has become prominent man
so unexpectedly, is that he has applied to the
Intendente of Valparaiso TO protect the officers
ana men of his ship who go ashore or necessary
u5ineSs.
An evasive answer having been given by the
Gillian official, Captain Schley Is reported to
be taking such steps as will enforce the proper
treatment OF officers ane men Of the Baltimore

which must be done. The captain is a prudent
man. and will avoid giving occasion OF offense
to the Chilians, but purchases must be made
for the use OF the ship and communication
maintained between him and Minister Egan
These necessary things will be accomplished
and Captain Schey will have the doing Of Them
If reports as to the heated condition Of Gillian
feeling towards the United States are not gross
exaggerations more exciting news may be ex-
pected from Valparaiso
OF the difficulty with Chilli, generally re-
garded, the United States can afford to be
patient with the weaker power and wait until
the Gillian authorities have completed the in
vestigation of the Valparaiso outrage, which is
now in progress, before taking occasion to
adopt extreme measures. There seems to be
no reason to believe that the junta are not act
ing in good faith in requiring time for inveStga-
ton, Just as our own government assumed the
same right in our difficulty with Italy regarding
the Italians who were killed by the citizens OF
New Orleans.

Trial of Prof C. A. Briggs.

NEW YORK, Nov..4.-The New York Presby-
terry assembled this morning in the Scotch
Presbyterian church for the purpose of begin
ming the trial of Prof. Charles A. Briggs on the
charge of heresy. based upon language used by
him in his inaugural address in Union Theolog-
ical seminary. DR.. John G. Bliss presided as
moderator There was a full attendance
One of the chief charges against DR. Briggs is
that he disputes the inerrancy of the Bible The
professor read pa per Directing to the form of
the charges preferred stating the report of the
committee which formulated the Indictment
against him charges ofenseS which are not now
proposed for trial. The committee charges him
with uttering doctrinal teaching respecting
miracles, original condition of man, ETC., with
out attempting 10 prove the charge. This Dr.
Briggs said did him great injustice and was apt
to prejudice The deciS on OF the members He
said if he caused widespread anxiety in the
presbytery he was sorry. but in his conscience
he felt no guilt in regard to disturbing the
eace and harmony OF the church He further
added that the charges were general and ID
Scure and irregular in form throughout There
is nothing in the spec t1cations that can be
tested by the defendant He admitted the ex-
tracts from his address were made on the occa-
sion OF his lnaugur | as president OF Biblical
theology in Union Theological seminary The
facts relied upon TO sustain the charges were
missing in the indictment He said also the IN
dctment contained insinuations wholly unwar-
ranted. He denied ne ever taught doctrines
conflicting with the Holy Scriptures as the only
infallibe rule of faith and practice.
This afternoon the resolutions of Dr. Van
Dyke were taken up. DR.. Van Dyke made a
dlgn1fied, earnest plea in support OF the propo-
sition to dismiss the against DR. Briggs
After an extended discussion the resolution to
dismiss was read and vote taken, resulting %
for to 80 against. The action, however, does
not end the controversy, as it will undoubtedly
be taken before the New York synod.

to mark an epoch in the commercial history of
our state. The great railway lines which
reach this state have formed a gigantic
combination, whose ramifcations extend to
Canada. The combination has subsidiary
steamships by way OF Panama, rates of freight
have been arbitrarily determined and in en-
deavoring to secure readjustment you
nave had to contend with this power
full combination individually and alone
To you Is now offered the opportunity of plac
ing yourselves in position so that you may
stand upon equal ground with the combination

association will have in hasty or ill-advised
manner, Only when all negotiations fail will
this association make it's full power felt. 1t pro-
poses to deal with transportation companies on
business propositions, as business men, and it
hopes by business methods to secure such rates
and facilities as will afford California an en-
larged market. The association does not in
tend to contne itself to tranScontinentaI
traffic alone but take within its scope matters
pertaining TO local coastwise and trans Pacific
traffic.

scavenger, is under arrest for the murder of his
nine mouths old son. The child died yester-

face was covered with scars, the left ear was
deeply gashed, the body bruised in
several places and the left leg broken

Need of American Ships in Brazil.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-The reported revolu-
tlonary movement in Brazil, accompanied by
a declaration OF martial law and the establish
ment of dictatorship, is likely to cause
another demand upon the already strained re-
sources ofthe navy, for it is regarded as neces-
sary for the protection of American interests
that United States naval force be at hand
there, in case Of formidable outbreak. The
only vessels attached to the South Atlantic
station in the vicinity of Rio de Janeiro are the
Essex and Tallahoos9. The first is an old
wooden cruiser, the seconds worn out and Of

the Brazilian coast enroute to the Pacific, but

The Baltimore in Serious Danger.

lSpeclal 70 IHE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch
NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-The Sun publishes the
following from London: A private dispatch re-
ceived from Valparaiso says that the American
cruiser Baltimore is in serious danger and that
the Chiltans, believing war inevitable will not
allow the United States to select their own
time to declare war, but will suddenly give
Egan his passport and at once attack the Bal
timore, so as to have the first blow at advan-
tage. 1t is not believed among the foreign
residents Of Valparaiso that the other foreign
men-of-war at Valparaiso harbor would per
NIT treacherous act upon Captain Schley but
would demand that fair notice be given him to
quit Valparaiso. Captain Schley. however, is
keeping yigilant outlook.
The Tory press continues to pour the walls of
its wrath upon the United States in connection
with Chilli, the articles being apparently in
tended rather for consumption in Chill than
England or America and being well calculated
to put that country with great idea Of Chili'g
capacity for defeating the Americans.
