yscial to THE MORNING CALI

NEW YORK, Sept. 3-The Herald's spe-
clal cable from Callao. Peru, says: The
torpedo-boat Almirante Condell and the
armed transport Imperlale, the last armed
forces loyal to the ex-President Balmsceda
of Chile, formally surrendered to the Chilean
Minister here to-day. and word was imme-
diately sent to the Juuta de Goblerno at
. Santiago that the two vessels were at
their disposal: The Condell, under COM
msnd of Captain Morago. sailed from
Valparaiso as convoy to the Imperiale on
August oath, two days after the landing of
the Congressional army at Quintero Bay.
The mission Of the two ships was to trans
port troops from CoQuimbo 10 Talcahuano.
On arrival at Coquimbo they received the
news that Balmaeeda had been defeated at
the hands of the Congressionals and Cap
tain Morago decided to suspend the trans
portation of troops and proceed to Callao, a
neutral port, where orders could be received
from the Government as to what course to
pursue.
The Cendell and Imperiale steamed into
this port this morning and for the first tins
heard of the defeat of the Balmacedsts at
Valparaiso, the flight of BalRlaceda, the fall
Of Santiago and the complete triumph OF
the Junta. Captain Morago has been par
ticulaTly active in all operations at sea
against the revOlutionists, and felt ii would
hardly be safe for him TO return to Chile.
After a consultation with the Chilean Min
ister he decided formally TO band over the
two ships to that official as representative
OF the nation. Ihe transfer was made TO-
day. and the Minister eabled the Junta for
instructions as to what should be done with
the vessels. :'.;-
THE JUNTA AT VALPARAISO. o..
The Herald's Valparaiso special cable
from its spondent says: In accordance
with instructions have Investigated the re-
port that the late President Balmaceda had
been killed by one of the men VINO are
crossing the mountains with him. No such
report has been heard here so far as l can
ascertain.
The steamer Arequipa arrived at Valpa-
raiSO from Iquique last evening with Seniors
Silva, Vict-PTesident of the Senate, SEN
ors, Ramon, Baros and Luco, the Speaker of
the House of Representatives, who, with
s. nor George MoDtt, comprise the Junta de
G0bernu. Senior ErraZurlZ the Provisional
Minister of Foreign Affairs, and other prOmi.
nant Congressional leaders were aboard.
They were received in style with great en-
thuslasm. The British war-shIp Champion
dressed fhip and manned her yards as the

salute was fired from the forts, and at.their
landing the officials were greeted with music,

THE REFUGEES IN PERIL.
The. question Of the disposition OF the
refugees has Deen definitely settled, and. to-
mOrrOw the United States steamer Balti-
m-Ie and the German man-Qf-war will-leaye
for Peru with all tile refugees aboard:
final conference was held aboard Admiral
Browns flagship, the San Francisco. last
night, and tire question as to who should
and who should not receive the guarantees
was discussed. The German and American
Admirals worked through their respective
Ministers at Santiago and. were Informed
by them that the Junta would under no cir
cUnstanees give any guarantees to the re-
cent PTesidpnt-elPct, Claudio Nicuna, Senior
Baurados, Oscar Viel. Godoy Peraz MCntt;
Captain Fuhntes, Senior Sala or Colonel
Pauoja. The cases Of the others were kept
under advissment until this morning, when
the hdmirals we're Informed that no guar
antees ould be given at all. -
It.was then decided to send the two men,
Of-WRr with the refugees to the pOrth.. The
American and German war-shipS are closely
watched day and night by the authorities,
and this may have gIyeh rise TO the talk in
foreign circles that an effort will be made to
prevent the sailing of the Baltimore and the
German. ships, and to take the refugees
away from thrm by force. There is really
M reason, as far as l can learn, to believe
that any such step is in contemplation.
All the ne newspAper supporters Of the late
Government are marked men, and will have
to leave the country, if they can. This is
pIrticu .arly the case In regard. to Major
Herrera, who was .1ntendente FiePs Pay
master and editor of the Boletini and Senor
Lnwenstefn. They will probably be shot
In short order if they are found.
.-~ Seniors Silva:and Luca Of the Junta, and
other Congressional leaders left for Santi-
ago this morning.
THE JUNTA WILL BE RECOGNIZED.
Admiral Browns. cablegrsm to the Navy
Department received his morning announc-
D.. ing the complete success OF the Jupta, was
communicated Immediately TO Wharton, Act
ing Secretary. of State. While Admiral
Brown is not diplomatic representative of
the Government, his statement Of facts is
taken as an addition to the official fnfOrma-
ton before the Department OF State to the
effect that Balmaceda's Government is a
thing OF the past and that new regime has
been established. The requirements of
diplomatic practice have been so far met,
and 1t IS probabls that the State Depart
ment will now proceed TO take official cogni-
Zance Of the state of affairs in Chile, as mod
ifed by Balmaceda's resignation aud the
victory Of the Congressional party
Cablegrams have been sent to Minister
Egan, and there is reason to believe when he
is satisfied that Government, even. though
il be temporary in form, has been securely
established in Chile, he will Immediately
open official Intercourse with that Govern
ment. This step. 1t is said at the Depart
ment, is equivaentto accreditfng a minister
to the new Government, and as soon rs such
new Government officially notifies the De-
partment of State that it has Authorized its
special ENJOYS to represent itregularly in
the United States, DR.. Montt and his col
leagues will be recognized al the Department
of State.
