Situation is serious.

SANTIAGO, Oct 30.-United States Min.
lister Egan, Captain Schley. of the Bslti
more, and William B. McCreery, United
States consul at Valparaiso, were in close
consultation throughout the day, and
though it is not possible to obtain any
definite statement from them for publica.
ton regarding the nature of the result of
their long deliberations, it can be said
they all consider the reply of the junta
to Minister Egan, asking for proper
explanation of the Valparaiso collision, as
decidedly insulting to The Uuited States
government. tits also known they regard
the situation at present as serious. The
reply of the iunta, they think, means
practically that Chill is indignant at the
demands made by the United States gov
ernment, that she will take her own time
to consider the matter, and when the
junta has reached conclusion, that the
government will settle the matter with
out references to the views af the United
States on the subject. The reply of the
junta, they further say, fails to express
any regret for the murder of the Balti-
more's men, nor Is there in that docu-
ment any expression of regret as to the
conduct of the police in using their bay
onets in arresting the Baltlmore's men.

Course of True Love.

MIDDLEsBoRo, KY, Nov. 2.-Sam
Howell, a near relative of Clarke Howell,
editor of the Atlanta Constitution and
speaker of the Georgia house of represen-
tatives, has elopsd with Miss Nina Merch,
a saleswoman in dry-goods store here.
Howell came here several months ago to
take position in the Office of the Md
dlesboro Belt Railway Company. He is
scarcely IS years of age, and was exceed
ingly quiet and unassuming. Among
his acquaintance was Miss Merch,- who
was formerly of Grand Rapids, Mich.
Miss Merch is very pretty young wo-
man, and warm attachment sprang up
between the two young people. Nobody
knew of the attachment, but it appears
that Howell's fearing their intentions were
to separate him from his beloved, went
to Cincinnati, where he arranged to have
Miss Merch meet him. This was done
few days later, and the young couple
were married, and then proceeded at
once to the home of the bride, where
they are now residing. 1t is stated here
that Howelps relatives are very indignant,
and the young couple will have hard
journey to travel for some time to come.

Mysterious Drowning of a Rarsemas-
ter at Astoria.

ASTORIA, Oct, 30.-C. Nelson, barge
master on government barge No. Z, myste-
riously dissappeard this morning while
his barge was at anchor in the stream,
and the supposition is that he is drowned.
The steamer Cascades dropped No. z and
two other barges IN Scow bay at Z o'clock
and Nelson was then coiling up the lines,
but when the tug Mendell went up an
hour later to tow the barge to Fort
Stevens, he could not be found, although
the cabin door was open and his hat on
the table. Captain Wbitcomb, of the
Cascades, states thst there was quite a
swell on when he dropped the barge, and
be thinks that he was thrown overheard
by a sudden lurch of the craft and
drowned. The crew of the steamer
searched all day for the body, but failed
to recover it. Nelson was Sweede,
aged 80 years.

Peter Clemens, 1t is reported, is the To-
Gator of rich quartz ledge just above the
place where the gold has been found on
Trout creek. From parties who have wis.,
tied the new discoveries we learn that the
gold found in the placer claims ranges in
size from wheat grains to peas, and is rough,
Indicating very little washing or abrasion.
Perhaps it has come from quartz near by.

Columbia Joe and his band of redskin
followers have been in the neighboring
mountains nearly all fall, but our people see
no practical way to prevent them roaming
our hills and slaughterfng game. These
Indians play the game pretty well, as they
drive the deer back from the valleys and
shoot them away back in the timber where
no white man will molest them. But at the
rate they are going they must call halt
soon for want of deer to operate on.

Grant county has plenty of water power
and lots Of sheep. Why not try and IN
duce some liye man to start woolen mill?
Thousands Of dollars are cent out of this
county each year for woolen goods that
might juat as well be manufactured here.
Besides the trade of this country a live, en-
ergetic man would be able to control the
trade of nearly all south Eastern Oregon.
Let the Nesos agitate the matter. Her col
umns could be devoted to no better cause.
Some time in the future when q railroad
accepts the Canyon creek pass and crosses
the divide into Bear valley there will spring
up magic city in the glades where now the
fiuttering leaves and wealth of verdure are
arranging themselves in bright hued tints
that gently whisper of the approach Of
autumn and give early warning of winters
coming. Nowhere are such scenic effects,
in all their Alpine grandeur, to be found by
those who seek to commune with nature In
all her wondrous loveliness.

It is reported from Rome that the Italian Premier gave Baron Faya cool welcome. RudinI appreciates that he has made fiasco, and IS anK- ious to throw the blame on FGya. It is reported in Rome that the only question now affecting the Cabinet IS how to get out of the American difficult ty with the least disgrace The latest dispatch from Imperiali at Washington is said to foreshadow that not even a money indemnity will be paid to the families of the massacred Italians, the temper of the American people being such that Congress would not dare to make an appropriation. lmperiali has forwarded statements that have greatly surprised the Cabinet, showing that America does not fear Italy's fleet. Baron Fava, in his report to the Mar auis di Rudini on the New Orleans lynching, expresses the belief that there is no way out of the situation, as the Federal Government has no power to give Italy the satisfaction demanded.

GROWTH or TIRE COPPER INDUSTRY.

The Engineering and Mining Journal takes hopeful view of the future of the copper industry. Despite the large increase in tho worlds production cf copper, from 223,0 tons in 1887 to 27O, 4s5 tons in 1890, the consumption of that metal has grown at even more rapid rate, which is mainly due to the wide application of electricity in the arts and industries Although the in- crease in stocks during this period of four years has been so large in aggre- gate, relatively It has been of eompAra- lively little consequence. The stock Of copper at the beginning of 1887 repre- sented about IT weeks supply at the rate of consumption that year the stocks on January lst, 1891. were less than IS weeks supply at the rate of consumption of lS9O.
 As for the future, the conclusion to be drawn from these statistics Is that the position of copper is secure, The extraordinary demand from the eleetri- cal manufacturing companies which has grown so amazingly during the past de- cade, is likely to continue at an equally rapidly increasing rate during the pres  ent, as electricity for Illuminating pur- poses, and particularly for the trans mission of power, becomes applied 10 a greater extent At the same time, the demand for copper from the brass founders and metal workers will pToba- bly experience it's regular and natural growth so long as the price of the met al is not prohibltiye. The Journal thinks, however, that the general busi- ness depression prevailing in this coun- try may temporarily restrict consump. ton and prevent any advance in the price of copper.

sfLyEE COINAGE.

The Act of July IA, 1890, provides that after July l, 1891, the coinage of the silver dollar shall cease except so far as in the discretion of the Secretary of the Treasury it may be necessary to coin them for the purpose of redeem ing the Treasury notes of the Act men, toned, In fact the coinage of the sil- yer dollar will, after next July, be sus- pended for an indefinite period Tho purchase of 1, ,500, 000 ounces of silver bullion at the market price will con tmue monthly and result in the issue of about m equal amount of Treasury notes each month, an increase in the total circulating medium of the conn try more than sufficient to replace the National bank notes retired. Rhodes Journal of Benking maintains that if there is demand for more circulation than this will supply, it will act to at- tract additional supplies of gold to the country, The silver bullion purchased and locked mp i'll the Treasury each month will consume nearly all of the product of the silver mines of the coun- try, and at present prices there is no temptation to send silver to the United States from abroad The probability IS that the demand for the white metal in silver using countries will increase and require the export of all that can be produced in the United States over and above the monthly purchase of 4,500, 900 ounces There have been complaints of the law of July II, 1890, beth on the part of those who have been advocates of the free coinage of silver and also of those who opposed it, but the full effect of the law cannot be known practically until after the first of next July, when the coinage of the silver dollar will cease for the first time since 1878. After that date the United States will be in position in regard to maintaining the equilibrium between its gold and silver coinage similar to that France haI occupied since 1873. France has maintained circulation of silver five franc full legal-tendor pieces equal in amount to her circulation of gold coin, and has kept the gold and silver coins at par
