The Reports of Fighting at valparaiso
and Coquimbo Denied.
LONDON, Aug. 11.-Cable dispatches from
Balmacedan source in Santiago de Chile
have been received here denying the reports
that fighting has taken place between the
government troops and tho insurgent
forces at Valparaiso and CoquiLnbo. On
Aug. 3, according to these dispatches, the
government torpedo boat Almirante Con-
dell attacked the congressional party's
cruiser Esmeralda and number Of trans
ports at Caldera. Numbers Of the torpe-
does were discharged from the Almirante
Condell, but as the attack was made at
night, and as it was very dark, the results
are not known, but none of the rebel ves-
sells have since been seen near the provinces
held by President Balmaceda.
NO TRUTH IN THE WAR RUMoRs.
The dispatches further state that reports
as to the relations between Chile and Boz
livia, growing out of the latter's recog-
milton Of the insurgents as belllgerents, one
of which reports was that Chile has de-
clared war against Bolivia, are untrue, aud
that the stories of cruel punishments
inflicted by the government are pure in-

BALFoUR's IRISH IDEAS.

The Dublin Express Says His Scheme
Would ALLEVIATE Unionists.
DUBLIN, Aug. 1.-The Daily Cypress,
which is the organ in this city of the inds-
pendent conservatives, does not agree with
the ide--s Of local government for Ireland as
set forth by Secretary Balfour, chief secre-
tary for Ireland, in his speech at Plymouth
yesterday. In commenting upon the
scheme as outlined by Secretary
Balfour, the EcpreSs says that
the result in ireland of such bill
would be TO ALLEVIATE the unionists. No one
would take the trouble to go to the polls
aud vote to support the government which
proposes 10 hand them, bound hand and
foot to popuiace that is known TO be
hostile to them. The Express says that
many unionists think home rule and a fair
fight preferable to county councils and
slow strangulatiOn.

GRAND DUKE ALEXI5.
he Ia Warmly Received on His Ar
rival In Paris.


PARIS. Aug. I1.-There is scarcely a
doubt that the non-arrival in this city yester-
day Of the Grand Duke Alexis was entirely
due to his disinclination to be the recipient
OF the enthusiastic welcome that the citizens
of Paris had prepared for him. Great
crowds of people gathered at the railway
station where he was expected to arrive,
and much disappointment was manifested
when 1t was learned that the grand duke
had changed his plans and would not arrive
at the time originally sek
PREPARATIONS FOR HIS ARRIVAL.
So sure were the Parisians that the grand
duke would reach the city at the time ap-
pointed that a number of houses and cafes
along the route from the railway stations
were beautifully decorated and Illuminated
in his honor. The crowd learned that he
would not arrive yesterday, but they did
not learn when he would reach Paris, aud
consequently when the train on which he
travelled rolled into the station at S:45 O'Clock
this morning no one wAs present officially
or unatficialy TO TeHeive him.
SO adverse was the grand
duke to undergoing an official reception
that even members of the Russian embassy
had no official information as to the g xact
time of his arrival. and he, therefore,
aliRhted from the train exactly as a private
Individual would have done.
RECOGNIZED AND CHEERKD.
But as he reached the platform he wac
recognized by the crowd, comprising at
least /, 900 persons, who had Just arrived on
the incoming trains. or who were awaiting
the departure Of the trains for various
points to which they were bound. The
greeting they gave the grand duke was en-
| thusiastio. They cheered and yelled, waved
handkerchiefs and hats, and above the din
| could be heard the cries Of "Vive 10 czar, -
"Vive la Russia" The grand duke. bow
ing and smiling at the warmness of his well
| come, despite his attempt to avoid it, passed
| along the platform, and, leaving the sta
zion, entered a carriage and was imme-
| dtately driven to a hotel.
THE TIMES CONFIRMS IT.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE Times this morn
ing publishes dispatch from its Paris cor
respondent confirming the reports that the
non arrival Of the Grand Dnke Alexis in
| Paris yesterday at the time designated was
! Intentional. The dispatch adds that the
reason for the change in the grand dukes

may wish to show Germany that she Is still

The Rumors Spread for Depressing

BERLIN, Aug. 11.-Alarming rumors in
regard TO the health Of Emperor William
continue to gain currency in Berlin and
other centers, Notwithstanding that the
previous rumors originated from the em~
peror's injury sustained by slipping and
falling on the wet deck of the imperial yacht
Hohenzollern while on his recent cruise
to Norway. have been semi-off1ciaIly
denied. 1t is believed that these rumors
are spread by spectators for the purpose of
depressing prices on the bourse.
Referring to the many different stories in
circulation regarding the emperor's condi-
sion, the Keller Zeitung to-day says that
the emperor Is able TO walk, aud that he
ascends and descends stairs without assist
ance.
HIS LEG MUSCLES RUPTURED.
It is stated that the emperor ruptured
the muscles Of his knee joint aud displaced
his knee cap and that he will
be obliged to abstain from
any movement until the wound
has healed. This ob1eot viii be accom-
pltshed by bandaging the leg in its normal
position.
On the emperor's arrival at Kiel special
dresser was telegraphed for to bandage bis
leg afresh.
Prof. Beekman, a specialist Of the Kiel
university, bandaged the emperor's leg in
the presence Of Prof. Esmarch and DR..
Leuthold. The emperor remains aboard
the HohenZollern for convenience sake.
There is nothing serious in bis condition.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE intense heat
seems to have had no effect in preventing a

Of vice presidents of the organization

paign, and it is the opinion OF most of the
committee that ouly the ground work of
the more effective organization will
be laid at the present meeting in
the way Of selecting plan of action,
etc. Experience has demonstrated
tnat clubs organized too far ahead are apt
to lose their energy and usefulness by pre-
mature enthusiasm. SO it has been decided
to let them lie quiet until after the national
democratic convention Is held, when full
steam will be turned on by the National
Association of Democratic Clubs within

twenty years. The effect upon tie CITY ia
far more serious than most people imagine.
Persons are overcome by heat in hundreds.
and actual sunstroke befalls scores of people.
The aggravation of other diseases by the
heat is incalculable, and children, especially
nursing babes and teething little ones, suffer
untold misery.
AT THE HOSPITALS.
The hospitals are crowded with poor sup
plicants for treatment for ailments generally
caused by the weather, and the staffs of
physicians are overworked, aud many of
the attend ants are fit subjects for treat
ment themselves.
Sunstroke has carried off. directly or in
directly, a dozen persons in the last twenty
four hours, and there are scores of others in
the hospitals.
The suffering caused by the heat has been
intensified by veritable plague of mosqui-
toes. Sunday night these venomous little
pests made their appearance by the million
and drove all persons Indoors The oldest
inhabitants declared that they had never
experienced anything of the kind before,
and wondered what they had done TO be so
afflicted.

THE KINGS APPEARANCE.
King Alexander was attired iu military
uniform and bore bimself like soldier.
He is a we'll grown boy, tall for his age
He is Of slight build and his figure is erect.
The manner in which he carries himself is
good and denotes his military training In
his face he bears a resemblance OF both
Queen Natalie, his mother. and of ex-King
Milan, his father.
Notwithstanding the fact that recent dis
patches from Belgrade announce that his
majesty has passed very successful exami-
nation in a great variety of subjects, 10 is
asserted that in general respects his educa-
tion is in dsplorable condition. This, 1t is
said, is due to the fact that his tutors are
frequently changed for political reasons.
He has been reared without companions OF
his own age, and altogether, though he
holds the position OF a ruling sovereign of
Europe, he is compelled to lead q dreary,
lonely life.
HIS FUTURE MOVEMENTS.
He will go TO Ischl to-day, and Wednes-
day will proceed to Munich, Bavaria, where
