protection of American interests,

was no unnecessary fuss or bluster
about it, but rs soon as the news
was received that the CHILEAN Juuta

surrounded the residence of the
United States minister to that couu-

of State to cable Minister Egan to

were other intricate questions which
arose during the consideration of
this matter, questions which have at

between nations, but the President
said in effect: These are side issues
that NAV hereafter be determined
tbroueb the regular Diplomatic
channels, what we must have at
once is respect for our representa-

be. There is little doubt that
European influences were behind
this silly attempt on the part of the
temporary Chilian government To
put an afront upon the United
States, but those influences, strong
AS they are, were not strong enough
to hold up the CHILEAN back bone
