He wishes it distinctly understood that he
will leave Washington with the kindliesr
feelings for President Harrison, and that
he will be found in the forefront next year
fighting for q continuance of the present
administration. He leaves Washington
only because the climate and confinement
in Office here have impaired his health. lie
is understood that the Rev. Mr.. Townsend
has recommended Mr.. w. ID. Mccoy as his
successor.
This mornings Washin gton Post has al
diana's colored aspirants for Office, from
which the following is taken:
There are three vacancies now, to one
OF which col0red Indiana man will be ap-
pointed. These places are the missions TO
San Domingo and Liberia and the record
ership of the General Land Offcc. The
difficulty lies in the fact that there is quite
a coterie of ambitious colored men
in the Hoosier State, every one of
whom wants and thinks he IS entitled 10
preference. The task now before the Pres
ident Is to pick out the one Who will sat
isfy all, or at least find him whose ap-
pointment Will create the least amount Of
friction. It is the eastern part of the State
that is represented by Mr.. Townsend,
while the dissatisfied ones appear around
Indianapolis. OF the three vacant POSI-
tions named but one can 90 TO

Foreigners Want To Abolish Monarchies After
Hearing the President Speak.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Star this
evening prints the following: There was
nothing half-hearted In the applause which
freely punctuated President Harrison's ad-
dress in the conference to-day. The audi
ence was composed of people OF whom o
majority were eminent in the oratorical
profession. and they were quick to recog-
nIze the power of the Presidents utter
ances. From the opening sentence to the
last word the conference was critical, and
in spite of their keenness they frankly de-
clared that there was nothing to apologize
for. nothing to condemn. Innumerable were
the expressions of delight that poured from
the lips and hearts of all the delegates. but
especially warm and interesting were the
comments of those whose homes are in
lands other than this. They were accus-
toned. if ever, to seeing the governing
powers from afar off, ana whenever roy
atty parades in public there is much pomp
and military display. We shall have to do
away with monarchies after this. exclaimed
the Rev. w. +. Dawson. of Glasgow. He
was talking to Bishop Hurst. and the re-
mark was made SO loudly that every one In
the lecture-rOOm could hear it.
The Rev. Ellery John, the eminent and
eloquent Welsh preacher. said TO o re-
porter: My visit to America has realized
the consummation of my highest ideals In
the presence and magnificent speech of
your President. I should say that every
rational Englishman will return to Eng
land feeling that a republic is the only true
form of government. Never have heard
a man SO expressing the heart of Chris
tianity, and if his position was simply the
result of the accident of birth. l would
never have expected such a deliver
ance. The welcome he gave Methodism
at the White House would have been i'm
possible at Windsor. If you rolled up all
the kings and Queenswe ever had since the
DAYS of the COnQuerOr down to the Prince
of Wales you would not make so fine q man
rs President Harrison. nor could you get
out of tho composite such an,able and cour-
ageous speech as that we heard this morn.

Rev. DR.. Buckley, of New York. said that
it was the duty of every man 10 be pre-
pared for war. He was not one of those
who denounce all wars as SIN. He believed
in fighting for principle. in fighting for his
religion when unjustly attacked.
Mr.. j. i. McLaren. of Toronto. indorsed
the views of Bishop Newman. Rev. VIM.
Arthur, of London. also strongly favored
the establishment of an international
tribunal for the settlement of all diff
ferences between nations. Rev. John Bond.
also of London, followed In the same line.

for England the credit of first proposing ar

SANTIAGO. Oct. 1.-THE anti-American

O climax last evening, in the streets
OF Valparaiso. A number of sailors
of the United States steamer baltimore,
now in that port. were walking along the
street when they were confronted by some
sailors of q Chllian man-of-war. Some
words passed, when q fierce fight followed.
There was evidently bad blood on both
sides. and 1t only needed n pretext to
bring on q conflict. Both parties were
armed with knives and pistols. which were
freely used during the squabble. When the
combatants were separated by the police
and bystanders 1t was found that one
of the Baltimores sailors. had been
killed and tive others seriously wounded.
Several of the Chilians were also badly
hurt. This was the first time the Balti.

The intendenteo of the city had assured Capt

would be perfectly safe on Chilian soil.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 17.-Official eonfirma-
tion Of the report of the fatal ARRAY be-
tween sailors belonging to United States
and Chilian vessels at Valparaiso. yester-
day. was received this evening by acting
Secretary Solely. of the Navy Department.
from Captain Schley, of the Baltimore, the
only vessel of the United States navy now
at Valparaiso. Captain Schley's report
does not give particulars of the affray, but
its wording leaves the impression that the
tragedy originated In q street brawl be-
tween the sailors. Captain Schley says
that the boatswain's mate was killed and
six seamen injured. but how seriously he
does not tell. This information differs ma
terially from the newspaper report re-
ceived. which gave four as the number
killed. All the American sailors belonged
to the Baltimore. Nothing about how the
Chilian sailors Jared is mentioned in the
dispatch. Captain Schley says that he Is
Investigating the matter. No action has
been taken by the Navy Department..
which viii await Captain Schley's report
on the circumstances in the case before
moving in the matter.
Captain Schley's dispatch states that the
men were at liberty on shore when the
atiray occurred. He informed the Navy
Department recently that he had suspended
the granting of liberty TO his men and
would keep them on board the Baltimore
until matters became quieter. The resump-
tion of q peaceable condition of affairs
probably caused Captain schley to rescind
his orders of restriction.
