New YORK, Oct. ga special cable
from Valparaiso says another letter writ
ten by Balmaceda has turned up. 1t was
to his three brothers. He says he cannot
longer ieopardize his friend, the Argen-
tine minister. by remaining at that lega-
ton. He had intended giving himself up
to tie juuta, but owing to the belief that
its leaders will respect nothing he changed
his mind and will make a personal sacri-
fee. He says he has left for publication
a document that will prove of historical
use and that through it Europe will com
prehend his conduct.

American Seamen Treated
With Contempt
And Exposed to All Manner
of Insults.
Measures of Retaliation Seem
to be Indicated.
Won't Stand 1t Longer.

CHICAGO, Oct. pa special from
Washington saws Capt. Schley has asked
Secretary Tracy to have Admiral Brown
ONE at once to Valparaiso to aid by his
presence in seeing that full Justice is done
the cowardly %rufians who murdered the
sailor last week. 1t Is now alleged that
Boatswain's Mate Reagan was shot by a
policeman. The dispatch asserts that
Minister Egan will be instructed to de-
mand reparation and that the president
has said to Tracy: " mean to have no
more of this business from any nation aud
the demand upon Chill must be peremp-
tory" There will be four cruisers at
Valparaiso when the demand is made.
Capt. Sohley has informed Secretary Tracy
that it has become impossible for Ameri-
can officers to go ashore without being in
suited, and that hereafter they mean to
go armed and resent the insults in a prop
er way.
We are losing our self-respect by per-
hitting those things" says Schley, =" and
the younger officers are wild with rage and
cannot be much longer restrained"
u don't want them to be further re-
trained. said Secretary Tracy t, one of

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-It is improb-
able that any serious results will follow
the Baltimore incident at Valparaiso. 1t
is probable this government will await the
outcome of the legal inquiry now In pro-
gress in Chile before making any move
and that meanwhile precautions will be
adopted to avoid any further collisions.
Secretary Tracy and Gen. Foster had a
conference with the president this after
moor and at its close Secretary Tracy
dictated the following as the latest official
information on the subject:
From a dispatch received from Capt.
Schley it appears he has made a careful

The Emperor a. an After Dinner Speaker.

As an after dinner speaker the en-
peror has no superior in Germany. He
speaks readily without notes, expresses
himself with vigor, never descends to
conventional commonplace, and, above
all, gives the very best assurance that
his words are not prepared for him. l
have heard conspicuous speakers in Eng
land and in our own country, and, if
comparisons are not in this case invidi-
Gus, l should say that the German en-
peror need not fear to meet such an au-
dience as even a New England society
dinner assemblies. One Of the prettiest
speeches l nave listened to was delivered
by the emperor in answering the toast to
his wife in the province where she was
born. 1t was during the great combined
naval and military maneuvers of 1890, at
which the United States was represented
by Commander Ward, and Great Britain
by Admiral Horribly.
The emperor's words were: II desire
to express to you, my dearest sir, the
gratitude felt by the empress and myself
for the kind words we have just heard.
AT the same time our thanks to the
whole for the day we have passed and
for the reception which the province has
prepared for us. This day was, how
ever, not needed in order to assure us
of the warm friendship we have found
here.
1.-THE bond that unites me to this prov
ince and chains me to her in a manner
different from all others of my empire is
the jewel that sparkles at my side, her
majesty the empress. Sprung from this
soil, the type of the various virtues of a
German princess, it is to her that l owe
it if l am able to meet the severe labors
of my Office with a happy spirit and
make head against them"
The words of the emperor were unex-
pected, and to no n more 80 than to
his wife, whose face beamed with happi-
ness at the compliment she 30 publicly
received. Nor did any one who listened
to the speaker at that dinner think to
question the spontaneity and honesty of
the language. - Poultney Bigelow in
Century.

PITTsBURG, Oct. 23.-A wild Texan
steer escaped from the Perr's Island stock
yards today and for a time created a panic
on the streets of Allegheny. The mad.
dened animal traversed several of the
prominent th%oroughfares. attacking every.
thing that came in its way and compelling
pedestrians to flee for their lives. Five
persons were gored by the frenzied beast,
one of them, a small boy, fatally. A
party of citizens with guns and revOlvers
finally killed it.

His marches DER. his battles won,
His bright sword sheathed forever"
The great commander sleeps tonight
Beyond the silent river.
And he who braved the bolts of DEATH
And smiled mid all their rattle,
With equal calm is resting now
From his great final battle.
Give to his country now the sword
He welded in her name,
And let the nation while she lives
Guard well its wearer's fame.
The sword that, strong for truth and right,
Helped make people free;
The sword that, flashing like light
Led armies to the sea.
Long will grateful nation keep
His name her sons among,
And long will tender memory weep
Whene'er his deeds are sung.
And future ages still will tell,
In rhyme and song and story,
And teach their sons to cherish well
Our grand old chieftain's glory.

TALK OF THE WEEK.

There have been frequent public protests in
the past against the practice OF draping Depart
ment buildings in mourning every time man
who once held Cabinet position or high Office
dies. This custom costs the Government great
deal OF money for crepe and the labor expended
in doing the drapng, and besides this the build
ings are frequently disfigued by the color run
ming out of the crepe when rain-storms come on
during the period of mourning. For the next
two weeks the curious spectacle will be pre-
sented Of four Department buildings all draped
in sombre black at the same time. Three Of the
buildings will retain their drapery Of woe for a
full month. The Treasury Department has been
in black since Secretary Windom's death, and
now the deaths of Admiral Porter Gen. Sher-
man, and Alexander II. II. Stuart, ex-Secretary
of the Interior, will cause the War and Navy
Department Building and the Interior Depart
ment Building to be swathed in the sable en-
blern of death. OF course, all good citizens
recognize the propriety of expressing in some
public manner the sorrow of the nation at
losing her illustrlous sons, but the custom of
wearing black as an emblem of mourning In pri-
vate life is falling into disuse, and the draping
public buildings every time noted man dies
excites more and more hostility as the years go
by. Some other means OF giving formal ex-
preston to the deep departmental sorrow
should be found.

The gentlemen who recently bought the New
York Star and changed its name to the Conti-
aent are making very attractive and newsy
paper out of it. They made move decidedly
in the right direction when they reduced the
size of the pages to about the convenient di-
mensions of The HERALDs pages, and for this
all their readers will no doubt bless them. The
tenacity with which daily journals have clung
to the old "blanket-sheet" shape is a striking
illustration of the force of habit. Nobody
would read book whose pages were yard
square, and yet the newspapers seem to think
that those dimensions are what the public
wants.

The 1irmness of the stand taken by Mr.. Smith
sent this particular cabby to the rear for the
time being, but he no sooner disappeared than
two of his chums stepped to the front, seated
themselves beside Mr.. Smith, and poured out
their most cordial sympathies with that gentle
man, expressing their entire disapproyal of the
sharp practice which their bad colleague had
attempted to play on him. These two schemers
worked themselves into the sympathies of Mr.
Smith to such an extent that that gentleman,
when he had finished his oyster stew and paid
his bill, hired one of them to carry him home
| The cabby announced that his herdic was at
the door ready for buiiness, and, conduct

slammed the door on him, and the herdic
started off at gallop. The cabby, strange to
say, remained on the sidewalk The herdie
that Mr.. Smith was in was the herdic belong

previous engagement with MIR. Smith, and in

One night not long ago gentleman in a con-
dition not to be described as cold sober, yet by
no means intoxicated, walked down from Will
lard's Hotel about / o'clock in the morning to
an oyster house on the Avenue near Twelfth
street. The hour between l and 2 is pretty
busy hour for this particular oyster shop, and a
good many people We're at the tables eating.
AS usual, too, quite a number of night-liners
were hanging around, some of them obstrep-
erously inportuning people for fares and others
silently waiting and watching for their prey.
One of the most enterprising of the
band selected this gentleman (whom we
will call Smith) for his victim, and, without any
ceremony, sailed in. At first ne was very affa-
BILE, and only wanted to secure Mr.. Smith S
patronage; but later on he made a little adj
vance on that position and assumed that he had
already been engaged by Mr.. Smith; that, in
fact, he had already carried Mr.. Smith all
around town, and had been waiting for him
ever since he entered the oyster shop, and that
consequently Mr.. Smith was indebted to him in
a considerable sum of money. But Mr. Smith
was not to be gulled in that way, and so, repu-
dating any engagement with the man, he in
| formed him that he had no need of his services
and that he declined to be annoyed any further
| by him.
