 VALPARAISO, Oct 19.-The sailor of the United States steamship Baltimore who was killed by Chilisn sailors in a street brawl few days ago, was buried at Val paraiso to-day. There was no hostile demonstration. An armed force of Amer cans from the Baltimore were landed and attended the funeral. Another of the Baltimore's sailors who was wounded in thefght will probably die. Captain Schley of the Baltimore and the authorities of Valparaiso are investigating as to the cause of the trouble. It has been ascertained that Chilian mob attacked the Americans and the onslaught was peculiarly brutal
 The Chilians were all armed with knives and pistols, whereas the Americans had but few weapons and were slow in using them. The Chilian sailors and boatmen and others about the water front are still showing bitter feeling toward Americans and making all manner of threats. The better class of the Chilian people every where condemn the brutal attack.

Rigby and had May arrested and held in

The parties in the case met in Media to-
day; May and his attorney came armed
with capias from Judge Clayton, and
were prepared to arrest Pierce unless he

to agree to sign a retraction, and then the
suit was withdrawn.
