EoAN's REFUGEES.

while Taking No Active steps the Gillian
Junta Refuses to Abandon Its Position.
SANTIAGO, Chilli, Oct 6.-The Chilian
government has so far evinced no in
tention Of abandoning its position that
II has perfect right to arrest persons
as they enter or leave the precincts OF
the American legation. But while
strenuously insisting upon the posses
sion Of this abstract right the govern
ment Is at present making no attempt
TO put IL in practice. The partisans of
Balmaceda who took refuge under
Minister Egan's roof are still there and
no arrests have been made during the
past few days,
IL can not be learned that the gov
crnment has in contemplation any plan
for asserting in the near future the
right of arrest that Is claimed. But IL
Is thought that the present unsatis-
factory situation cannot be of long con-
tinuance.
In accordance with instructions re-
ceived from the state department Rt
Washington Minister Egan has given
the junta TO understand, by formal
and official notice, that II the Chiliah
authorities continue to maintain their
present attitude the friendly relations
between Chilli and the United States
will be interrupted. The junta's reply
TO this notice is awaited with great in
terest What Minister Egan's next step
will be in case the reply is unfavorable

The United States steamship San

hill from Walnut street at a terrific
rate of speed. The conductor was on
the end wildly trying TO apply the

to bed, and he did not like the idea of be-

The Fires Last Evening.
From Thursdays Daily.

about $3.50 last evening an alarm was
turned in and the department soon put
out a small fire in the wooden building To-
Gated back at the Central block and used
for a stable by Geo. Gussner. a board
was torn from the outside and the fire
started by dropping a match between the
sheeting and siding. 1t was discovered be-
fore it Lad made any Roadway and no
damage was lone. The loft was filled with
hay and Two horses and a cow vas kept
in the building. Scarcely had the appar-
atus been placed in lis proper positions be-
fore the alarm was again turned in. This
time the fire was in the rear enc Of Sven
sons bowling alley. The fire was started
in a cushion used for the balls to roll
against IN playing nine pins. This blaze
was like tie other, quenclled before it had
gained any hrauway. Both fires were Ger
Iainly the work OF some incendiary. 1t
does not seem reasonable to think a person
with his right mind would try to burn Il
building at the time of day when the fire de-
partment are at best liberty to fight the
flames, and especially at a time when the
department is in session directly over the
engine house. as was the case last evening.
Neither does 1t look like the work of boys,
as was the opinion among some last night.
Boys, as a rule, quarrel III such matters and
it is soon known to the public. 1t seems
to be the verdict that it is the work OF some
intoxicated person with a view OF seeing
the fire department work. This, however,
is only a suppOsition and may be no better
than the other theories advanced. Chief
Van Horn. together with thr city officers,
were at work last night, trying to find the
cause of the fires, and should they be sue
c~essful, the victim will be properly dealt
with.

Who Did the Shooting?
From FRIDAYS Daily.1

The mysterious shooting affair at the
electric light plant Wednesday night re-
mains unravplled, and who could desire to
harm Ed Hughes no one can conjecture,
yet il is evident that murder Was intended
and that the plans were better laid than
executed. AT the time of the assault
Mr.. Hughes was standing near the south
west corner of the room in which the ma
chinery is located. He was facing to the
west. At his right was a window and be
side it to the left a door. In front of him
was a box fastened to the wall at about the
height of his head. On top of this box
were glass insulatOrs. The first Shot struck
one Of these, SCATTERING Its bottom, the
main portion striking MIR. Hughes on the
head. The second shot took effect just
above the box and near the window frame.
AS soon as Hughes heard The first shot
strike he felt his head hurt and realized
he had been hit by something, which
proved to lave been the insulator. He inn
mediately closed the door near by and ran
to the boiler room. The fireman fastened
tos the engine room. The door which
Hughes had closed was open and he says
it WAS kicked open as soon as Hughes had
shut it, thus showing thai there were at
least two mel making the assault, as the
shots were fired through the door on the
north side of the building and it would
have been impossible for one to reach the
door from that place by the time it was
kicked open. The fireman passed back
night police, but when they arrived all
was quiet. The matter is al unfortunate
one, and the authorities say they intend to
investigate.
