editorial of December Is. entitled. mo

trouble between Chilli and the United
States in regard to the baltimore af-
fair has been cabled to this country

Valparaiso. Nothing will be more
gratifying to the CHILEAN people than
the appointment of n committee of the
United States congress to fully investi-
gate the relations between the two
countries and every question affecting
them. Chilians say that they rely on
the integrity, honesty and justice of
the American public aside from the

Tho old league never owed n debt

laughingly, I'VE had to- walk the floor
considerably in 1890. The cessation of
this war means a revival of interest in
the national game. There is repre-
sentative club in every city and only
one, and the removal of the division of
patronage, as we'll stimulate local en-

the clubs. The new committee will re-
