| As soon as the news was received here this
| morning the German war ship Sophie and the
British gun boat Daphne were ordered to so at

foreign residents there.

Senior Jorge Montt Gen. Canto and others of
| the congressional chiefs arrived in Santiago
| this morning. They were received with the
greatest enthusiasm by the people of the CAPT.
tai. Gen. Baquedano, the acting president. re-
| ceived them officially. The other members of
the Junta de Gobierno are expected to arrive
here from lquique tomorrow. They will at
once proceed to Santiago, when the question of
o new election and the reorganization of the
government will be considered.
AGAINST AMERICANS.
There is no Disgusting the fact that there is a
very bitter feeling against the Americans on
the part of the successful revolutionists. This
feeling is strong that unless it is placsted i'll
some way il may seriously affect American COM
mercial interests in Chill for some time.
The capture Of the Itata first created the i'm
preston that the United States government was
actively unfavorable to the revolutionary cause.
This impression WAS intensified by the action OF
Admiral Brown when he visited Quintero bay
on August 20 to witness the landing of Gen.
Canto 5 army.
The admiral desired to see the maneuver,
and invited some Of the other naval officers in
Valparaiso to come to the flag ship San Fran
cisco and go to Quintero bay. Only the Ger
man officers accepted.
The San Francisco did not anchor at Quintero
bay, but steamed around until the landing was
effected and then headed for Valparaiso. A
boat was sent from the transport Copiapo to
visit the American cruiser, but did not succeed
IN getting aboard.
SUSPICIOUS OF DYER.
Upon the arrival of the San Francisco here
Lieut. Dyer visited Intendente Viel to secure
permission to send a cable dispatch to the Navy
Department This visit has been construed by
the adherents of the junta proof positive
that Admiral Brown acting as a govern
ment spy on the movements of the opposition
and no amount OF explanation has been suf
ficient to remove this impression.
Then other things have served to strengthen
the feeling against the United States. Not the
least important among them is the very general
belief that Minister Egan has been an active
partisan OF Bamaceda and has used his nflu-
ence in preventing the State Department from
recognizing the belligerent rights Of the insur-
gents
Acting Secretary Of State Wharton's action
In ignoring Seniors Montt and Foster, the con-
gresslonal ENJOYS, even now when il is a recog-
niZed fact that they represent the only govern
ment OF the country. has increased the feeling
against citizens of the United States. Admiral
Browns action in refusing to give up the po-
litical refugees who have found an asylum
aboard his ships has also added to the general
irritation.
MUCH OPPOSED TO EGAN.
1t is the general belief that Admiral Brown
is acting under instructions or by the advice OF
MIR. Egan. The minister is expected TO arrive
with the admiral as to the final disposition of
the refugees now on the American ships The
feeling against Mr.. Egan is very violent and
there is little question that his recall will soon
be demanded.
The German admiral settled the question as
to the disposition OF the refugees far as he is
concerned by sending the corvette AleXandrine
to the north today, presumably to Callao. with
Senior Claudio Vicuna the recent president
| elect; Admiral Oscar Wei, the ex-intendente OF
Valparaiso; Capt. Fuentes, recently in com
mand Of the torpedo boat Almirante Lynch;
Senior Sanchez. late superintendent of the Gus
! tom house. and others aboard
Mr.. McCreary, the United States consul at
Valparaiso, is in high favor. He rendered
valuable services to prosecuted women and
political refugees whose lives were in danger.
ORDERED MANY STUDENTS SHOT.
The records at Santiago confirm the state
ment that on August is President Balmaceda
ordered fOrty-two young men to be shot to
death. They we're charged with having en-
gagged in plot TO blow up railroad bridges
and thus prevent the movement of government
troops Many Of them were mere boys Of from
sixteen to eighteen years Of age.
One of them was whipped in order to make
| him confess the plot
1t is charged, and from the records appears
to be true. that only small portion OF the
cruelties perpetrated by the late government
have been published.
The congressionalists are giving trials to all
against whom offenses are charged and execu-
/ tiOus this time ha hae rkab lv 70,
LEFT THEIR FAMILIES PESSILEss
Much pity is felt for the families Of the Bal
macedist officials who have fed the country
Many of them have been left behind friendless
| and penniless.
| There will be no fight at Coquimbo The
| transport Cochapel had taken on board a divis-
ion OF troops and was under orders to sail for
Coquimbo today, when formal tender of SUBJ
| mission was received from Col Carvallo, COM
\ handing the troops there.
| Gen Baquedano at once sent back orders for
| Col Carvallo to retain the command of his
troops and 20 maintain order in the district
about Coquimbo.
ELECrIoNs WITHIN MONTH.
i have been assured by prominent men
among the congressionalists that within a
month arrangements will be made to hold cleo
lions in all sections of the country and that as
soon as the results Of these elections are known

properly constituted authorities.
| The torpedo boat Almirsnte Lynch and the
\ cruiser Esmeralda returned today from an I'M
successful search for the Almirante Condell
and the transport Imperiale. Nothing has
| been heard from these vessels since they left
CoquimDo.
! Order has been restored in Santiago and VAL
paraiso. The mobs have been gotten under
control in those cities and there is no likelihood
/ OF the authorities being unable to preserve the
| peace from this out
| BUSINESS RESUMED.
| Mercantile establishments have been re-
opened in this city and the business section is
gradually resuming its customary appearance.
Exchange 10 steadily rising.
Nothing has been heard here Of President
Balmaceda since he was reported with his fam
lily and yaluables at Los Andes II is not likely
that any definite news will be received of him
until he gets within the range Of telegraphic
communication on the other side of the noun
tain.
1t has been found impossible to bury all the
bodies which were left on Fridays battlefield
with the facilities at the command Of the au
thorities, and it has therefore been decided &c
cremate them. This will probably be done TO-
morrow.
