Chilean War Talk.

The army and navy officers in Washing
ton seem to be anxious for war with Chile.
II they are sincere in what they say nothing
would give them more satisfaction than an
opportunity to show the Chileans what
kind of material the army and navy Of the
United States is composed OF. IL they had
their way war would be declared at once.
But the probability of war is not very
great yet. No doubt the government is
making preparations for it, because it is inn
possible TO say what will be the outcome OF
the present strained relations between the
two countries, but the Secretary of the
Navy said day or two ago that the admin
istration was not expecting war.
It is believed by the President that the
new government that has just been inaugu-
rated in Chile will make the reparation for
the Baltimore outrage which has been de-
manded. 1t may be several days before it
is In a position to cay definitely
what course it will pursue,
because it has to be very careful not to
precipitate a conflict at home, but the
Chilean minister ct Washington says that
the new Chilean government is anxious to
remain on friendly terms with this country
and will make whatever reparation that is
just in the Baltimore affair
Il seems that Peru would like TO assist
this country. If war should be declared
against Chile. She has very lively rec
objection of the humiliation she suffered at
Chile's hands, and she would gladly avail
herself of a chance for revenge. II this
country should end it necessary to engage
in a war with Chile she would have 20 need
of aid from Peru.
Among congressman there is not strong
feeling in favor Of war. a senator is
quoted as saying that this country is strong
enough 10 wait until the Ignorant states
men of Chile comprehend she fact that if
they do not make an apology and reparation
for the insult to our flag and injury TO our
sailors there will not be much left of Chile
as a nation" II is probable that Chile will
see the necessity for complying with the
demand OF this country before the war

The Evidenca Ruled on.

Camden, N. j., has Judge who Ia at
war with the people of that city. His name
is Hugg. A year or so ago an alleged no.
FERROUS character named William ]. Thomn-
son opened race track and gambling place
In Gloucester, Camden county. and obtained
such influence with the rough elements that
he became power in state politics. The
good people of Camden and Gloucester be-
came tired of BILLY" Thompson and his
roughs and the grand jury indicted him for
some violation of the law. He was tried in
Judge Hugg's court and was acquitted.
Alfred A. Holt, the editor of religious
paper in Camden. published bitter article
in which he charged that BILLY" Thornp-
son had been acquitted because Judge Hurg
was biased in his favor.
Judge Hugg at once ordered Hollis arrest
for contempt of court. Then there was a
very lively time in Camden. The majority
of the leading citizens sided with the re.
ligious editor. A mass meeting was called.
and Judge Hugg was denounced by LAWYERS.
preachers and business men. He got a
scoring such as public officer seldom gets,
and he was very mad.
On Saturday the contempt case was tried.
The religious editor offered to prove the
truth Of the charge he had made. Judge
Hugo refused to permit him to do SO, say-
Ing that every court is the Judge of con-
tempt against himself" He fined the reli-
gious editor $1,000 and ordered that b 10 be
kept in jail until the fine was paid.
The religious editor, however, immedi-
ately took an appeal to higher court and
was released on bail, the leading citizens
going on his bond. It looks as if Judge
Hugg is in contempt of public sentiment and
as If he would not be permitted to give tes-
timony in his own behalf if he should seek
another term on the bench.

There has recently been good deal of jubila-
ton in the renablic&n camp over the antago-
nism of the dem . factions in the House Of
Representatives. five mistake not, there was
no little growing by the republicans over a split
in the Democratic party just before the fast
New York state election, but the Growing soon
gave way to waiing and gnashing of teeth.
The democrats got together and the republicans
weren't lin it,. It is frequently good thing
for the Republican as well as the Democratic
party TO suppress tendency to crow-that is,
until the votes are counted.

Decidedly the most economical suicide
yet has just shuffled of at Cincinnati. In
stead of squandering his substance for
poisons and an expensive hotel room he
nonchalantly walked into hardware store
and asked to be shown pistol. When it
was produced he asked to see it loaded.
That being done he took it and examined it
critically moment and then calmly fred
it into bis head. After that he had no
further use for it. So the next lucky man
can just walk up 60 that counter and take
his turn with the gun that is known TO work
satisfactorily. Cheap way to close the
score and stop ciphering upon hard mental
problems. But it can scarcely be considered
either wise or cheerful.

Though guns did not furnish Outlaw Sims
with common amusement, he dropped his
war implements and surrendered without
further argument when he saw the Ala
bama soldiers about to turn loose howitzer
upon his cabin. That sort of skirmishing
he wss not used to, and it evidently got him
slightly 'rattled." But it is very doubtful
if q 6-pound shot would have done any
very great damage to a cabin built Of heavy
and hard logs. Now that he is dead he
may possibly know enough to desire to kick
himself round or two-ir dead people do
really know things at all.

Censure Of Gov. Hill for his alleged abuse
of the pardoning power in releasing from
the penitentiary man who had just been
sentenced by the supreme court of New
York for contempt Of court is pretty gem
eral among the republican newspapers. But
the Judge seems TO have been equally guilty
OF abuse of power in sentencing a man to
the penitentiary merely for contempt of
court. That is not legally constituted a
felony in any state.
