THE CLOUD RISES.
Excitement Over the Recent Assault
Upon American Sailors in Chilli
Rapidly Subsiding.
indications That the Difficulty Be-
tween Chill and America Will
Be Speedily Settled.

! oNDoN, Nov. 3.-A dispartch from Val
paraiSo says: -..
The excitement over the Baltim ore sailors in
e cldent is subsidng. The presidency OF the
public has been offered to Jorge Montt.
Congress reopens Nov. 16. The bulk
OF the political prisoners have been released.
The government is disposed to satisfy legitimate
claims made by foreigners for losses suffered
during the revolution. -. 3d.. .s
The Morning Posts Berlin dispatch says:
The CHILEAN legation here has received news
I pointing to speedy settlement OF the difficulty
between Chilli and the United States.
The London Daily Telegraph says:
If the evidence of the sailors of the United
States warship Baltimore is true they were the
victims OF one OF the foulest outrages ever COM
United upon unarmed men in friendly
port. With such a report Secretary Blaine
would have failed OF his duty had he not de-
manded immediate explanation. We must
strsnuously object to the name OF England being
dragged into the matter. If the Chilians have
conceived the notion that England under
the circumstances will Interfere to prevent them
1rom the consequences OF their own acts they
cannot too soon or too emphatically be dis
abused Of their idea. 1t is quite unfair
to take the charges against Minister
EGan as proof and found upon them an indct-
menU against American diplomacy. The voice
OF England should be heard, not in the language
OF taunt and menace, but in advocacy OF eau
tious diplomacy and mutual forbearance.

Attacking a Brood of Lions.

A correspondent of the. London
Graphic narrates an incident on the
Limpopo River, the northern bound
airy of the Transvaal. One of his
drivers was a Hottentot named Cigar,
and though the roads were heavy he
had to hurry on, time being an object,
not even halting for the usual siesta
in the middle OF the day.
But one day the bullocks stopped
suddenly and refused to- advance
further. The Hottentot's experience
told him that there was something
ahead that frightened the oxen, so,
Selling his whip, he went forward to
reconnoitre. He was not long in dis
covering the cause Of the trouble
namely, splendid couple OF lions,
with their cubs, enjoying midday
snooze.
Without hesitation. he measured
with his eye the distance, then raising
his giant OK whip. brought it down
among them witha succession of cracks
that ,riwaled the.report OF gun. Thus
abruptly awakened neither Of the par
ents stopped to learn who had dis
turbed them, but bounded off into the
adjoining jungle, closely followed by
THEN, progeny.

Justifies the Name,

An instructor in natural history
who believes that it is better to deliver
little lectures to his pupils than to
let them get their knowledge out OF
books, talkedt to them thus one day
on the subject Of the hog:
THE hog, my young friends, is,
from the point Of view OF food. the
most important Of animals to the
human race. There is no part OF his
structure which has notsome aliment-
airy or industrial use; even his bristles
are used I'm the manufactures.
But from the point OF view OF char
acter and mode Of life, it must be con-
tossed that he possesses certain habits
and dispositions which fully Justify
his nanle

CHAPLEAU'S ULTIMATE I'm. .

He Will Lay tt Before Premier Abbott
and Colleagues in the Cabinet To- Day.
OTTAWA, Ont, Special Telegram, Nov. 8.
Hon. ]. A. Chapleau.s the secretary Of
state, is still OH strike against the govern
meut. He went to Montreal last evening.
To-day he held caucus of his leading sup
porters in that city and returned to the
capital tonight
He has mace up his mind to organize a
political revolt in the province of Quebec
and it possible drive Premier Ahbotts adj
nlinistration out Of power. He has all his
plans laid out. and at to-morrow's cabinet
council he will lay his ultimatum before
Premier Abbott and his colleagues. Either
he must be made minister OF railways and
canals, or he will 60 on the warpath in
Quebec.
Meanwhile matter which is causing as
great an famount Of public excitement as
the pending cabinet crisis is the govern
ment's action in prosecuting crinlinally in
the courts the members of the firm of Lar
kin, Connolly & Co., government contract
ors the exposure of whose boodling trans
actions during the last sessi on of parliament
drew the eyes of all the world on Can
ada as paragon among all the nations of
the world for corrupt politics.
Among those who are to be prosecuted
are Hon. Thomas McGreevy, the former
member for Quebec city east in parliament,
who was expelled from the house two
months ago for his
SHARE IN THE PLUNDERING
Of the public treasury. He was the bosom
friend of Sir Hector Langevin, the late
mi p1ctar Df yub)io xuor-o who 1,os al
driven from power in disgrace by last ses-
sion's disclosures. The trial begins here
next Wednesday. .r. s.5s.
The ledgers and other books Of the firm
Of Larkin, Connolly & Co. were in the Gus
tody Of Sir John Thompson, minister of
justice, until last week, when that firm OBJ
tanned possession OF them by Selling them
while being transferred in two strong
boxes back to the vault under the great
tower OF the parliament buildings here,
after being used as exhibits in the superior
court in Quebec in the case against Owen
E. Murphy and Robert McGreevy, the two
other boodlers, formerly members O! the
' firm of Larkin. Connolly & Co., who have
skipped out across the border
Owen E. Murphy is said to have taken
passage by vessel from Boston for Mexico,
as Inspector Byrnes Of New York is now
after him. More than twenty years ago,
when he was an excise commissioner in
New York city, lie absconded to Montreal
with $50 COO.
With regard to the books of Larkin, Con-
molly & Co., the superior court decided to-
day that Michael Connolly, who seized
them last week, must now return them to
the custody of the dominion government.
This he refuses to do. The books are in
hiding, and he has declined to disclose
where they are or to obey the order of the
court

BL AlNE AND MONTT.
The Secretary and the Chilian Minister
Hold q Consultation.

The Secretary and the CHILEAN Minister
Hold Consultation.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-Senor Montt the
Gillian minister, had a conference of near
ly an hour with Secretary Tracy to-day. He
called on Secretary Blaine at the state de-
partment accompanied by Secretary Tracy.
His interview with Mr.. Blaine was very
brief, lasting but fifteen minutes, and its
nature could not be learned. Secretary
Tracy would not say anything regarding
either conference, but stated that there was
nothing new or alarming in the Chilian
situation.
Senior Mont lett Washington to- night for
New Orleans, to be gone until next week.
He declined to say anything respecting his
visit to the state and navy departments but
expressed the belief that matters were
progressing salts actorily and again depre-
Gated the publication of sensational and
trouble breeding stories.
Secretary Tracy to-day said that there
was no warrant for sensational, warlike
dispatches at this time. The United States
government has requested an investigation
OF the assault upon the Ba!timore's sailors;
an investigation was being made ana moth
ing could be done until the results were
known. He saw no reason for any appre-
hension in the mind of the American pub
lie. The secretary's view is evidently shared
by the officials OF the department Of state
There have been no new messages re-
celyed at the navy department about the
situation. The last cab!egram from Capt
Schley threw some light upon the case
particularly the note about the method OF
Reagan's death. 1t is now claim that he
died at the hands of policeman, and that
testimony to that effect comes from an
American who stood near.

BRITISH STORIES FALSE.
Charges of ImpartIalitys Against Ad-
miral Brown Proven Untrue.

Charges of Impart1ality, Against Ad-
miral Brown Proven Untrue.
WAsHINGToN, Nov. 3.-Secretasy Tracy
this evening made public the instructions
sent last spring to Anliral Brown, COM
handing the Pacific squadron, at the be-
ginning OF the Gillian disturbance.
..These Instructions" Secretary Tracy said,
''have been Vigorously adhered to throughout.
In no single Instance have they been departed
from. They prove conclusively that the charges
OF partiallty made by the English newspapers
are untruths, and that they have been invented
. In order to preJudice the Chilians against the
United States Tor commercial purposes"
In the instructions Admiral Brown was
ordered to observe strict neutrality and to
take no part in the troubles than to protect
American interests and TO use force only as
a last resort. He was directed to abstain
from any proceedings in the nature Of as
slstance to either party or from which SYM
Pathy with either party could be inferred.
AS to re ugees, the instructions said:
Your ships will not, of course be made a.
refuge for criminals. In the case OF persons
other than criminals, they will afford shelter
wherever it may be needed, to Americans first
OF all, and then Others, including political ref
ugees, as Tar az The claims Of humanity may re-
quire, and the service upon which you are en-
gagged will permit.
III addition to these instructions, Rear
Admiral McCann issued order in which
he said:
nc ,SoAIihtilluer'lN-chle! cautions ana enlO1ns
the officers and enlisted men of the United
States naval force on the west coast of South
America to abstain from discussing or criti-
-clslIG the present unfortunate state Of
affairs Ii Chilli, aud in no way to
express any sentiments opinions either favor
abs or un1aVorable to either side. While it be-
comes our duty to maintain the strictest
neu raity i'll all our relations. it is also to our
itclests and to the credit OF the service and our
government to refrain from any expressions
tDar can possibly be construed as All offense by
either party. t..
1t is auth orltatively stated that no COM
plant has been received by the state de-
partment from the CHILEAN government OF
the conduct of Mr.. Egan, and that his recall
has not been considered by the president or
secretary OF state.

When Your Mind is Wearied Youa are

"Here's a unique fact"
"What's that?"
The stenographer, the bookkeeper
and the reporter were talking togeth.
er: The reporter added:
II have often noticed after [ have
done a hard days work, written
miles and miles, have strange ten
dency to- transpose certain letters as
they flow from my pen or pencil.''
"How so?"
II do not know why or how.

All [ know is that, mechanically, the
transpositions slip from my pen.

The bookkeeper smiled
*Well, 1 declared" he said, ''what g.
strange coincidence. I declare we
must be on the track Of some deep and
heretofore unrecognized law of mental
states.
Now, what you say applies equally
we'll to bookkeepers. There isn't q
bookkeeper in the United States
who will not tell you that when
his mind becomes wearied. after long
work, he begins to transpose figures.
That is one OF the ways, in fact that

Reversal of Decision Made by Com
missioner Carter.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, Nov. s.
Secretary Chandler to-day reversed de-
cision of the land commissioner coming
from the Duluth district. in which the right
to a dead soldiers additional certificate for
12O acres Of land was involved. 1t was the
case OF Edward w. Nee against Sine on w.
T. Hughart the latter being the soldier. It
was claimed that tho entry was made after
Hughart's death by another party, and Nee
contests on that ground. The secretary
holds that if Hughart was dead that the
right to entry belongs to his daughter, as
the heirs of soldiers are benehciaries. He
has ordered hearing to determine the state
OF the case und find out whether Hughart
was dead at the time the entry was made
It will make no difference whether Hugh
art sold his certificate or not, the man
who purchased will be out ii he did not
make the entry while the soldier was liv-
ing.
Secretary Chandler has called before the
department the case in which the Northern
Pacific road is contestant against the Mani
toba and certain settlers for lands in North
ern Minnesota to determine whether the
roads have any valid claims to the tracts
