tenderly cared for. The captain and
four OF the crew were drowned before
the life-savers reached the vessel.

CHILEAN GOSSIP.
The British Minister at Santiago in
Bad Favor.

The British Minister at Santiago in
Bad Favor.
New YORK, Nov. 11.-Touching the
situation in Chile, the Herald's Valpar-
also representative sends this: There
is considerable coolness at present be-
tween the Chilean authorities and the
British minister, Kennedy. 1t dates
from Sunday, November 1st, All Saints
day, which was made the occasion for a
great demonstration in honor of those
who lost their lives while in
the service OF the junta, previous to the
downfall of Bslmaceda. A great throng
visited the cemetery at Santiago to
heap flowery tributes on the graves OF
the dead heroes. Among the visitors
was Minister Kennedy, who was also
intent on decorating some graves. His
coach was caught in a jam at the
entrance to the cemetery, and owing to
the coachman's pomposity and stub
bornness row ensued during which he
found it advisable to leave his seat and
seek safety in flight. Minister Kenne-
dy's coach was somewhat damaged by
colliding with other vehicles, whose
occupants insisted upon getting the
right of way.
This unpleasant incident put Ken
nedy in an indignant frame of mind.
and ever since he has evinced spirit Of
unfriendliness toward the authorities.
Correspondents OF certain European
newspapers seem bent upon doing all in
their power to create Misunderstanding
between Chile and the United States,
and even boast that such motives in
spires all of their articles. They
make no secret of their desire
-.
every inuendo that is started against the
United States, and say they will publish
everything which in their opinion will
give the world the impression that the
American representatives unduly sup
ported Balmaceda.
Copies of the Herald contain story
OF William H. Crace's connection with
shipment of arms to Balmaceda, just
arrived here, and created quite ripple
of excitement in Chile, as the represen-
taFve OF Grace -& Co.'S firm
here is a staunch Brit
the late war as a friend of the Junta.
He has also made himself very promi-
nent on account of his disparaging re-
marks against the American people.
DIR. Claf Paz, brother of Charles Paz,
up his practice to join the congression-
alists as surgeon general in their army
has been requested by the president
elect, Montt to visit Europe for a years
medical research in appreciation of his
services to the junta.
Captain Schley has wired the navy
department relative to the concession OF
Judge of Crimes Foster to certain of
Schley's demands. Foster in a let
ter to Captain schley day or two
ago, gave consent to the appearance ol
an officer OF the Baltimore and an inter.
prefer at the secret inquiry. The Chill
] can secret inquiry bears resemblance
to our grand jury system.. Captain
Schley, in his communication to the
navy department, recommends that it
agree to the proposals OF Judge Foster.
One OF the Valparaiso papers this
evening publishes letter from Trum
bull to Agent Eyre, in regard to the
charges against Grace & Co.'s firm
Trumbull states in his opinion the
charge that the firm acted in the inter
est OF Balmaceda, is unfounded.
