CHILI,s NEW PRESIDENT.

Admiral Mont Chosen by the Elec-
Der 20.
VALPARAISO, Nov. 5.-The sweeping
victory of the liberal party in the recent
elections made the election of liberal
president foregone conclusion. The con-
stitution of Chilli provides that the electors
chosen by the people shall meet and elect
a president. In accordance with the pro-
vision of this section of the constitution,
the liberal presidential electors met yester-
day and elected as president of the repub-
lie for the next FIVE years Admiral Jorge
Montt. The Inauguration ceremonies will
take place at the capital, Santiago de Chilli,
on December 20.
1t is stated that tie election of Admiral
Montt is not only approved by the entire
liberal party, but that the leading MEM
bers of the other parties acquiesce in his
selection, believing that it will tend to con-
solidate the best interests of the country.
1t is further believed that with the insti-
tuition of a constitutional government the
questions now at issue between Chilli and
the United States will be more calmly dis
cussed, and that the outcome will be salts
factory to both nations.
Admiral Montt was a pronounced oppo-
nent of the late President Bslmsceda and
upon the breaking out of the revolution
he took command of the congressional
feet. 1t was owing in a great measure to
his action that great many other naval
officers deserted Balmaceda and Joined the
reyolutionists
