KNOCKED DOWN IN VALPARAISO.
Beaten by the Police when He Said He
Was an American.

SAN DIEGO, Cal. December % Steamer
Keewena of the Atlantic & Pacific Packet
line, has reached this port from South
America. On her way she was disabled
and compelled to go into Valparaiso for
repairs. She left Valparaiso November
80, and brought up sailor named Patrick
Shields, who was maltreated by the Chill
ians. He had been on shore at Valparaiso
with companion and was arrested by the
police. He was not treated with special
brutality, he says, until he stated that he
was an American, whereupon he was
knocked down and beaten. He managed
to escape from the police, but was recap
tured by mounted officers and this time
beaten into insensibllity, in which condl-
tion he was finally, without trial, sent on
board the police boat. Consul McCreary
of Valparaiso interceded for him md
promise was given by the Chilian officials
that indemnity would be forwarded 70 San
Diego for Shields, but nothing has ar
rived, The officers OF the Keewena say
the feeling among the petty officials and
the people of Chilli is bitter, but they re-
late no new outrages.

LONDON, December 22.-The Telegraph's
correspondent at st. Petersburg says that
there is an enormous falling off in the

so says that the rich merchants of ST., Pc

the relief of their suffering countrymen.
Collection boxes placed about the Corn Ex-
change were found, when removed, to be
filed With bits of tin and paper. In nu-
merous cases, the dealers, after receiving
exorbitant prices for their grain, sent to
the famine-stricken provinces bags,the con
tents of which were mostly grass, sand and
bran. A limited quantity of maize was
placed In each bag, after being thoroughly
soaked in water 10 increase the bulk. These
bags caught fire through spontaneous COM
bustion while en- route to their destination,
and most of them We're destroyed. Enough
were lett to reveal the swindle the dealers
intended to perpetrate. The correspond
ent lurther says that corruption is wide
spread among office holders. and they are
little affected by sights of distress, sick
ness and death. Many town officials re-
fuse to enroll the starving peasants for
relief unless they first receive bribe of 10

by the excitement Of the speakersnip cam
paign, he was made almost frantic TODAY
by neuralgia of the head. For almost SO
hours he has been unable to sleep and
the insomnia, together with the
excruciating pain from the neuralgia has
made him very sick man. Two doctors
were with him today and, after considera-
bic work, they were able by the liberal use
OF soporlhcs to produce sleep, but the slum-
Der was intermittent and troubled. While
Mr.. Mills is reported shade better tonight,

relieve the anxiety of his family. As soon
as be is strong enough. he will be taken to
