CHILEAN ELECTION
Balmaceda's Candidate Elected--Stamp-
ing Out the Revolution


New York, July "A Coquimbo, Chile,
correspondent telegraphs, under date Of
June 2s, that the president of the govern
ment party has been elected. The PROV
inces In Southern Chile, all under Balma-
ceda's control, voted on Saturday. As
was a fOregOne conclusion, Balmaceda's s
candidate, Vienna, was chosen as his
successor. This is only the general report
OF the vote. The final result will not be
made public till July %. Between now
and then Balmaceda will remain in Office
and will hesitate at nothing TO stamp out
the revolution. He is in the fight to the
bitter end. There will be no compromise.
Either he must fall or the insurgents will
have TO make an unconditional surrender.
This town is alive today with warlIke
scenes. Everything points to a fierce
tight at an early date. News reached
here that all the insurgent ships, with
one exception, the Esmeralda are in rem
devious at Caldera, 200 miles to the north,
the port where the BlancO Encalada was
sunk. Their purpose is, without doubt,
to attack COquimbO at once. II seems
that the insurgents have been encouraged
by the reports eminating from here Of
dissatisfaction among the supporters Of
Balmaceda.
They are Joined by hundreds of DESERT
ers as soon as they make a descent upon
this place. II this is so, it will make a
big difference In the coming fight. 1t
looks II the insurgents and the Balma-
cedaisJs would be In conflict by July or
2. There are 1000 government troops In
this town and much less than one-half Of
these are regulars. The rest are volun-
teers and are not much TO be depended
upon. IL is from their ranks that most Of
the deserters TO the other side are gath
cred. There is no telling what the
strength Of the insurgents at Caidera is.
but it is reported they have 5000 we'll
armed troops in all; and that only for
lack OF ammunition they could put a
much larger force in the field. ! have
just been informed that an attack by
both land and sea upon Cequmbo may be
looked for; Balmaceda's officers here are
making every preparation for savage
resistance. They are trained men and
goOc fighters. The weakness Of the Bal
maceda army is in its volunteers.

HILL IS NOT MDORSED
The Meeting of Minnesota
Democrats Proves to Be a
Tame Affair
Resolutions Adopted Counsell-
ing Harmony but Fails to
Mention a Candidate
Another Destructive Storm
Sweeps Through Audubon
County, Iowa

MINNEAPOLIS, July 3-The Democratic
meeting here this afternoon did not result
in the Endorsement Of Governor Hill for
president. Matters looked squally up to
last night, but at a conference at the office
OF National Committeeman Doran, the
whole field was carefully canvassed, aud
1t was found that of those invited a ma
jority was opposed TO the Hill element
This state OF things was made manifest
TO the Hill men themselves this morning.
and they resolved to keep his name In the
background. They, however, whipped
the Cleveland element in the state central
committee by choosing Edward w. Du-
rant as chairman. Mr.. DuTant is at outs
with the state committee. After the Sc
lection Of chairman, the Cleveland men
received an accession to their numbers
and controlled the doings Of the meeting.
The resolutions counsel harmony, but
mention no presidential candidates. The
Democrats Of the state are urged TO orga-
nlze local clubs. An executive committee
OF twenty-seven members was appointed,
and the convention adjourned to meet
just prior TO the next state convention.

Some little time ago dapper little Chi
cago gentleman Of means made Fair

much OF his time tripping to various
points all over the Sound. TO my entreat-

much, yet he was enthusiastic 10 his
praise Of Fairhaven, which he said is
destined to be a great city. He was GER
tain the Canadian Pacific and the North
western would all terminate on the bay,
as well as the Great Northern. He said
the talk In Chicago was that the North
western would be the first road to follow
the Great Northern TO the Sound, but
that 1t would pass through Southern
Idaho and Washington, striking for Lake
Chelan and Port Suisun on the Sound
with short branches TO Fairhaven and all
the other points likely to give traffic.
That the Burlington would follow next,
having taken up an abandoned Union
Pacific route, via Olympia, Grays Harbor.
Port Angeles and Port Townsend. That
both railroads will build West this season,
and each following season until their
locomotives sight the Pacific. / am GER

THE LITTLE TYCOON
A Splendid Performance by the ANA
teurs Last Night

teurs Last Night
The Little Tycoon is not a new opera
by any means, yet there are some things
which age cannot murther, nor custom
stab, and one Of these is good operate
music.
This is one point in favor Of this opera.
The music is catchy, and appeals at once
TO the audience; IL Is likewise senti-
mental, for are there not several lovers,
who tell their woes, in musical cadences,
and does not all the world love lover?
And again, the opera was put on by
local talent, and greater interest was
evinced than would have been shown
Juch, perhaps, and Guthrie, sure. So, when
the curtain rose last night, Thistle's opera
house was crowded The audience was
there determined to be pleased, to make
allowances for defects, and overlook any
bitches that might occur. But they
didn't have to. None occurred, and were
they ever so unwilling, they would
perforce have to be pleased, for there was
no room for grumbling or fault finding,
while there was much to praise.
The cast was a good one, and showed
careful training, and each, from the
chorus TO the principals, did conscientious
work
Miss George Izane as "Violet," is the
central figure. Her voice, while not pow
erful. is sweet and well trained, and she
won several deserved encores. Her act
ing was good, as well, and showed none
Of that stiffness which is too apt to char
acterize the performance OF amateurs
The same may also be said OF Miss
Bowers, who, as Miss Hurricane" chap
eron to tourist maidens. was inimltable
So was Mrs. Mrs. Alfred Black, as Dolly
Dimple," and Miss Stenger, as Lady
OF the gentlemen il may be said that
Mr.. Charles Keith made a good Great
Tycoon" although as a lover he was not
an unqualified success, from the fact that
he lacked warmth. This was his only
fault, however, and he will mend. He
has good voice and knows how TO use ii,
and time will teach him how TO make love-
Mr.. Udness has a good baritone voice,
well trained and effective in every par
tlcular. and he is well up in the small
amenities which make things 90 easily
and smoothly on the stage.
Mr.. Horace Barton Kane has an excel
lent stage presence, and as General
KnickerbOcker" he was grand success.
His topical song, abOunding as II did in
] cal hits. was thoroughly enjoyed and
he was heartily encored.
Mr.. Henry Gerald Green as Lord Dol
phin in love with the fair Violet, was sans
reprOach. He was the beau ideal of an
English lord, such as we see him depicted
on the American stage. at any rate, and
his valet, Teddy, Mr.. ID. c. Jacobs, was a
noble assistant to his titled master.
Messrs. Lowenthal and Lane. Mr.. Cecil
Bacon and Mr.. George Leslie, though
having minor parts. did excellent work
The costumes of the company. especially
those worn in the last act. were very be-
coming Cs well as efpctual, and when
grouped on the stage presented a charm
ing scene.
The Little Tycoon, in short. was a thor
ough success, and the several members Of
the company are to be congratulated upon
the proficiency shown. which must have
taken weeks Of painstaking study.

California Forest Fires

SAN RAFAEL, Cal, July 3-This morn
ing Mount Tamalpias loomed up with its.
normal appearance. The air seemed to.
be clear and free from smoke. The fire in
the vicinity OF Ross valley and Temalpias
station has been extinguished and most
OF the tired fire fighters have come to
town. William Elliott, who has Just re-
turned from Laguntas, reports the tire
out on all sides OF the mountain except
about the large reservoir where it Is
burning in the direction OF the summit
Elliott states that before evening the fire
will have spent itself, as there is only n
piece Of few hundred acres in that
vicinity. Reports from Corte MADEIRA and
Mill valley state that the fire is com
pletely under control and no further dam
age can be done. 1t is estimated that the
path Of the fire covers about 5000 acres.

A TOUGH COUNTRY
Americans Warned Against Emigrating
to Colon

WASHINGTON, July 3-W. T.. Sims, con-
sui at Colon, writes to the state depart
ment, officially, as follows: II wish to
call attention to the condition of the
Americans who come to Central and South
America in search OF work. Day labor
here is cheap; 80 cents in Columbian sill
yer l35 cents In gold is the regular daily
wages. Americans can't live on IL. and
not being accimated they can't do the
work required. Every day Americans
come to me to be sent home. They are
not seamen and | have to rely on the
kindness OF masters of American vessels
to send the poor fellows home. The Nic-
aragua canal has lured many OF these
poor people here, and now they are acrift,
barefoot, nearly naked, and starving in
Central and South America, dependent on
the consideration Of American consuls to
provide them means TO get back home
Some poor fellows who were sick and un-
able TO work their passage have, doubt-
less, died In the swamps. ! hope this
emigration OF laborers from the United
states TO this country can be checked, as
there Is no room for them and death alone
awaits them here"

Cited TO Appear

ATLANTA, Ca, July 3-Stephen A,
Ryan, has been cited TO appear in court
and show where certain money assets
which he ought to have delivered to Re
celver Kingsberry are. In his petition TO.
the court the receiver recites that great
amount Of money was taken In by Byan
In the two months previous TO his failure
and argues that there must be some of
that money somewhere. This, IL will be
remembered, is exactly the same sort of
proceedings as that AGAINST Banker Toll
lesion, who was kept in jail, under con-
tempt, for more than year by the same
judge. Ryan claims that the 81, 100 he
turned over TO Sheriff Morrow was all
the money he had. The case comes up.
Monday. 1t is the real sensation in The
Ryan case. Eastern creditors charge
fraud in the failure, and this will test the.

Bountiful Crops

ST. PAUL, July 3-The crop reports
from Minnesota, Dakota and Montana
continue most favorable. There has been
more rain this season than at any other
corr onesponding period for several years,
and wheat is in fine condition. Other
grains are also above the average, and
meadows and pastures are better than
they have been for years. The mild
winter brought the stock through in great
order. Owing TO increased acreage and
fine prOsdects IL is feared that the crops
cannot be properly harvested, particn-
larly in the Red River valley, owing to
the scarcity Of hands.

International Contest Between Teams OF
Victoria and BellinRham Bay

Victoria holds the championship of
British Columbia, and in 1890 defeated
Port Townsend's crack team in every
game.
The home team leads the amateur
league, having defeated Port Townsend
three games in FIVE.
Today's game will be a contest for blood
between the two strongest teams OF the
Pacific Northwest, and every lover of
good ball playing will want TO witness the
contest.
O'Neill will pitch "cyclOne" game for
the home team, and Rappold will be close
behind the plate to receive his red hot
liners.
Umpire Egan will call the game at 4
o'cOck sharp. The usual admission fee Of
25 cents viii be charged. The manage
ment OF the home team have incurred
much additional expense in securing a
game with NicIOria's crack players. and
IL is hoped that their action will be ap-
preciated and that the largest audience
Of the season will assemble at the baseball
park to witness the game of July 4th.
