however, were not made public. 1t is
known the acute phase of the situation Is
passed and no serious trouble is antici-
pated. Minister Egan maintained the
dignity of his legation and the refugees re-
main under his protection.
so far as the protection OF refugees Is
concerned the practice OF nations includes
cases widely variant in principle. Our
own history, however, shows where refu-
gees seeking an asylum in legation were
not Americans, the United States gov
eminent has uniformly discouraged their
admission and protection; but the real
issue in the present case appears to be an
interference with the free communication
between the legation in Santiago and the
outside world, aud in such cases the pro-
visions of the international law are most
explicit. Broadly stated, the country to
which minister is accredited guarantees
that in time of peace this communication
shall not be interrupted and that the ser
wants and attaches of the legation are not
to be molested, or any act done that may
tend to impede the transaction of the bust
ness of the legation. The United States in
particular has shown itself to be intolerant
OF any interference, and even in the
tranco-Prussian war protested most eff
fectively against the assumption by the
Germans investing Paris of the right to
interrupt or detain Minister Washburne's
mail messenger
Wild rumors were in circulation this
afternoon to the effect that the White
squadron and other vessels would be sent
to Chilli, but these stories were inconslst-
ent with Secretary Tracy's statement that
no more vessels are to be ordered thither.
In the cabinet meeting to-day the subject
OF Egan's troubles with tho junta were not
touched upon, and it may be positively
stated that while American interests in
Chill will be fully protected, the active
phase and crisis of the situation have been
passed, and the existing difficulty is now
likely to become simply one of ordinary
diplomatic correspondence.
Although dispatches were received at the
headquarters of the Gillian Congressional
ENJOYS in Washington UP to O'Clock last
night, they contained no reference to the
reported arrest eff American citizens in
Santiago and the stationiug of police
around the Unite States legation building
there.
