The Contention with Chill Assuming Bet.
ter shape--yvhat Secretary Tracy says Of
Sensational War Rumors.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8-It Is authori-
tatively stated that no complaint has
been received by the state department.
from the Gillian government of the
conduct of Mr.. Egan, and that his re-
call has not been considered by the
president or secretary of state.
Senior Don Pedro Montt, the Gillian
minister, went to the navy department
and remained with Secretary Tracy for
an hour Meanwhile messengers had
been sent to the department of state
who reported that Secretary Blaine
was with the president at the White
house. The secretary Of state ar
rived at. the state department about
1880 and a messenger promptly noti-
fed Secretary Tracy, who Immediately
escorted Senior Mont to Secretary
Blaine's Office. The two secretaries
and the Gillian minister were closeted
Just fifteen minutes and then Senior
Montt returned to the legation.
It is impossible to learn officially the
object, of Senior Months visit There
was some comment upon the call upon
Secretary Tracy, as foreign ministers
observant of the official prophecies usu-
ally transact any business they may
have with the government to which
they are accredited solely through the
secre tary of state. The departure from
the usual practice by Senior Mont is
accounted for on the ground of mex
perience in diplomatic formalities. s35
There is reason to believe that Senior
Months visit had reference to the in
curry now being made at Valparaiso
into the assault upon the Baltimore's
sailors, and that In behalf of the Gillian
government he sought to secure the
testimony of some Of the American
sailors, as contained in the report of
Capt Schley's board Of officers. As the
Gillian inquiry is being conducted in
secrecy and as Capt. Schley was not
permitted to have any Of his officers
present during the examination of the
arrested American sailors, the United
States government felt bound to de
cline to permit its sailors to give
further testimony If. however, the
conduct of the investigation is changed
and the proceedings are made public
to the world, Capt Schley will allow
testimony to be taken by the CHILEAN
authorities aboard his vessel or will
send his sailors ashore to testify in his
desire to establish the truth.
Secretary Tracy said there was no
warrant for sensational, warlike dis
patches at. this time. The United
States government requested an in.
vestigation of the assault upon the
Baltimore's sailors; an investigation
was being made and nothing could be
done until the results were known. He
saw no reason for any apprehension in
minds of the American public.

HEAVY BANK FAILURE.

The Heaviest Financial Institution I'm New
England Fails-Sensational Reports.
BosToN. Nov. a--The doors of the
Maverick, national bank were not
opened for business this morning.
This means that the most prominent
financial institution in New England
has been forced to suspend payments.
Some idea of the extent Of the failure
can be CLEANED from the fact that ten
days ago the deposits in the bank
amounted to more than $40, 900 600, the
bank depositors numbering more than
500 and individual depositors about
1900 But the most sensational
feature of the failure is the an
nouncement that as far back as
January last Bank Examiner Ma
gruder reported to Mr.. Lacey,
comptroller of the currency, that the
bank was in q bad condition; again, in
September Mr.. Magruder reported to
the comptroller of the currency that
the bank was rotten In spite of these
warnings the bank was permitted to
continue in business. 1t is repro
duction of the infamous Keystone bank
robbery, in which some government Of
ficiais figured in such an unsavory man
ner. Yesterday Bank Examiner Ma
gruder dropped dead of heart disease
incidental to the mental excitement
over the pending exposure. e.

TIRED OF THE TAX.

Real Estate Brokers Protest Against the
States Assessment "A Rumor That
Proved to Have Nothing in It-How
Taxes Are Approximated.
Some one yesterday started a story that
Mercantile Appraiser Herriott intended to
tax real estate brokers 8 per cent on their
commissions and the story caused some ex-
citement among people not posted. There is
nothing in it. The State is supposed to have
collected g. per cent annually on the net in
come of all brokers during the last
half century. and it does collect such tax on n
whole part of their net income. the amount
depending somewhat on the conscience of the
brokers, who are required to report their busi-
ness year by year. Some people, however. do
considerable brokerage business on the quiet
without paying any tax to the Stale.
The report alluded to probably grew out of
an underlined movement, which so far appears
to be acephalous to have the tax either re-
duced or abolished. Mr.. John Kelly, of Her
ron & Sons. said he had heard of such a move
ment, but was unable to give any specific in
formation respecting 1t.
MT. Black, Of Black & Baird, said the State
tax did not trouble his firm so much as the city
business tax. which is ~ per cent not only on
net income. but on gross receipts, and anyone
with half an eye can see that this is by far the
most burdensome tax of the two, especially If q
mans conscience impels him to tell the truth
If all the knowledge possessed by even casual
investigators on this subject were put into cold
print. it would make some queer revelations.
sample case some years ago showed one firm
to be assessed for city business tax at $50. 900.
though the head of the firm at or about the
same time informed The writer that his firm
must do $500. 600 worth OF business year to
make current expenses. This firm allowed the

Water Coming in Contact With Stag In q
. Rotary Furnace Causes an Explosion
-Four Men Injured, but None Seriously.
Water coming in contact with Stag imme-
diately on the withdrawal of charge from
a rotary pudding furnace in the Crescent
Steel Works yesterday morning caused an
explosion which severely injured four OF the
employees and several others in minor de-
gree. None of the injured are In danger,

THEY BELIEVE IN UNCLE SAM

Italians Deprecate Interference From
Abroad and Trust to the Government.
The committee Of Italians having in charge
the arrangements for a mass meeting to De neld
tomorrow night in New Turner Hall, Forbes
street, to protest against the treatment OF their
countrymen at New Orleans. met last night in
the rooms of the Christopher Columbus Band.
When the matters appertaining to the mass
meeting had been arranged, committee con.
sisting of A. Sborigi and F. CanodI was ap-
pointed to convey to THE DISPATCH the
thanks of the Italian colony for the impartial
REPORTS and editorial comments 1t had printed
regarding the treatment Of Italians at New
Orleans.
In speaking of the matter Signor Sborigi said
that the Italians of Pittsburg deprecated any
interference by the Government Of Italy in the
affair, because they have a strong belief that
the Government of the United States-to which
many of them owed fealty as cItizens-woqld
see that Justice was done in the matter He
said that this sentiment would prevail at the
meeting to morrow. r. Canodi, who is editor
of Nost1T Tempt remarked that several men
who had known Bastiono Incadora, OF the
lynched Sicilians, in his own country-he and
they were residents OF 1rabia. near Palermo
called at his office yesterday and strongly al
firmed that Incadora was an innocent mar. ana

which he was absent but very short time. he

try, have become so tied down to any faction as
to have been implicated in the assassination.

This is one of the points the conference OF

views on the whole situation Saturday. II they
are opposed to the scheme the ordinance re-
ferred to above will be sent to Councils.

Powers of the Police Magistrates.
The police magistrates" said the Mayor,
'ar still possessed of common police power,
and can hear all cases of offense against city
ordinances. Their powers are limited to that,
however and they cannot handle cases where
statutor laws have been violated. No, don't
believe you will see me holding police court
very soon."
One Of the serious results of the present
mixed-up state of affairs is the Quandary In
which City Treasurer Denniston now finds him
Self with reference to the collection OF city
taxes Heretofore they have been paid almost
entirely during the month of March. when a dis
count is allowed. by the unsettled condition OF
things in general, the appropriation ordinance
has Got yet been made up. nor the tax levy de-
cided on In consequence. The time has so Tar
advanced thatlt cannot now be made In time to
allow the payment of the taxes in March, after
which no discount is allowed, as provided by
an act of Assembly. Even If the matter is ad-
justed during the next two weeks, it will be far
intoApril before the assessors books are turned
into the Office, and some days will be required
to foot them up and prove them before the
taxes can be computed from the footiugs.
The Treasurer is willing enough to allow the
discount that would have been given by pay
ment in March, but is prevented by law from
doing after the last day in March. The dis
counts would amount TO S5O, 600, which now
will not be allowed because of the personal re-
sponsibility that would have to be assumed by
the Treasurer 1t is hoped, however, that
way out of the difficulty will be found and the
Treasurer will consult legal advice on the
