ne telegraphed it to Mr.. Harrington,
VINO replied that Parnell's proposals
were subject to O'Brien's accepting the
chairmanship. At the same time
UBrien wrote to Parnell to the. effect
tnat the proposals were feasible, pro-
vlded Mccarthy continued chairman /;
otherwise, as the Hawarden plan in
yolved the employment OF Mccarthy
IN painful transaction, they
would raise formidable difficulty.
OBrien concludes with the expression
OF belief that they would be able to de-
wise some other equally satisfactory
plan. In a postscript he says he con-
suited Redmond and Gill, and all agreed
that when they met next May they
would be able to arrange modus
vivendi.
.O'Brien contends that the foregoing
disposes OF the Parnellite plea that Par
nells retirement was to be sham, and
that he was to have the right OF veto in
connection with the home rule bill.

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.--The News Wash
ingtou correspondent asserts that the
government has determined, in case
Chile does not proffer an explanation OF
the Baltimore affair soon, to make
another peIemptory demand. If Chile
still fails to act, all the available ves-
sells OF the United States navy will be
concentrated in Valparaiso harbor. To
this end a number of vessels will be
Withdrawn from the foreign squadrons.
IL this has no effect, it will be for con-
gress to act.
New YoRK, Nov. 10.-The Herald's
Santiago cable contains an interview
with the Chilean minister of foreign
affairs, Malta, in which the latter con-
veys the impression that the represen-
tatives OF the United States in Chile had
seemed to think they could in every
way dictate to Chile what she should
and should not do. This stand on their
part, he said, was untenable.
He denied the assertions that the pres
ent government was hostile to the
United States, and said when all that
has transpired since the war began was
known, the people of both countries
would be called upon to act as judges.
AS to the refusal to permit an officer OF
the Baltimore to be present at the judi
cial investigation, it was sim
ply because it was violation
of the rules OF Chilean legal procedure.
The Judge OF crimes controls these secret
trials, and it is left to his discretion
whether or not to ask the presence OF an
outsider. All this information has been
transmitted to Minister Egan.

THE INDIAN CYCLONE.
Large Loss of Life and Widespread Ruin
In Its Path.

In It's Hatn.
CALCUTTA, Nov. 10.-Further details
regarding the cyclone which passed os er
this part of India On Monday of last
week show that the damage done was
very extensive. Besides the loss of
seventy-seven lives. occasioned by the
sinking OF the Indian government
steamer Enterprise, which foundered at
the Andaman islands, killing sixty con-
victs, there no doubt has been large loss
of life at other places along
the coast. Advices from vari-
GUS parts of Bengal state that
the cyclone passed over that Sec
ton Of country and did great damage.
The cyclone cleared path through
forests, uprooting gigantic trees and
hurling them aside as though they were
reeds. No house could stand the terri
BILE energy of the gale, and every dwell
ing or other structure within the path
of the cyclone was either swept from its
foundations or turned over. The wind
also did great damage below Calcutta.
The city is situated on the east
bank of the Hoogley river, the
westernmost branch of the Ganges.
The Hoogley river empties into the Bay
of Bengal. A number of large vessels
were at anchor off the mouth OF the
Hoogley river, in such position that
when the gale suddenly burst, it was
impossible to save many of them.
Numbers dragged their anchor and we're
carried ashore, and others were dam
aged by the pounding received by the
enormous seas which accompanied the
storm. No estimate can be made of the
total loss of life, but it will be very
large.

O'BRIEN vINDICATED.



Passed Between Him and Parnel1.
DUBLIN, Nov. 10.-William O'Brien
publishes long letter in the Freeman's
Journal denouncing the conduct of Red
mond and Harrington in trying to de-
ceive the Irish public by pretending, on
the strength of their hope that he had
lost Parnell's letter, that it disclosed
treachery towards Parnell and other
Liberal allies. O'Brien now gives the
letter to the world, together with his
reply-the only letter he wrote to Par
nell during the Boulogne negotiations,
and not yet published.
Parnelps letter to O'Brien suggests
that Mccarthy interview Gladstone and
get written memoranda embodying the
assurances already given anent land and
| police, and transfer it to the custody OF
O'Brien, that if the memorandum was
satisfactory to both Parnell and O'Brien
the former would announce his retire
ment from the chairmanship; that the
terms OF the memorandum should moi
be disclosed until the home rule bill was
introduced, and not then unless the bill
was unsatisfactory, but after the
passage OF satisfactory bill Parnell
should be permitted to publish the
memorandum. Instead of the two
years limit within which the constabu
larry should be disarmed and converted
into civil force, Parnell agreed that tht
time might be extended to five years
but said it was Of vital Importance thai
some limit should be fixed. The letter
in conclusion gives O'Brien permission
to show it to Redmond's brother ant
Gill.

A British Correspondent Again After the

A British Correspondent Again After tho
Americans.
LONDON, Nov. 10.--The Santiago cor
respondent OF the Times telegraphs a
long diatribe against false Chilean news
sent by American correspondents or in
vented in America. Taking his text
from the report Of the blowing up OF the
cruiser Baltimore, he says:
ssSince the arrival OF American news
papers here, we have had in addition to
the scandal created by rowdy diplomacy
an unseemly squabble among American
correspondents respecting the author
ship OF false kilograms published in
America. These quarrels tend to place
America in an unenviabe light.
"It is necessary again to call atten-
ton to the disregard by the American
officials here OF the pacific orders
alleged to have been sent from Wash
ington. These orders give the text of
ostensible instructions previously sent
to maintain the strictest neutrality dur
ing the Chilean civil war. Owing either
to their knowledge of the secret inten-
tions of the Washington cabinet, or
other motives, Minister Egan, Com
mander Schley and the American con-
sui continue to show the bitterest
animus against the Congressionalist
government, publicly. 1t is notorious
that Minister Egan's attitude, and that
OF his assistants, continues to be such
as may yprovokearuptureo OF the friendly
relations between the two countries.
x,1 s~n xzrrf a
events, Commander Schley's landing of
sailors on October 10th, ceases to bear
the aspect OF thoughtless imprudence.
The preparation OF the Baltimore for
action at midnight in friendly port,
was an insult to the dignity and good
faith OF Chile, and more so still are the
declarations Commander Schley has
lust made in several quarters that war
between the United States and Chile is
inevitable. The American, consul at
Valparaiso is spreading similar reports,
and adds that q strong United States
squadron is coming here.
'"In consequence of this official fill
clustering, war ships of other nations
which were about to leave Chile, have
been ordered to remain. These deliber-
ate provocations will not make the
Chilean government abandon its correct
judicial attitude. There is, repeat,
absolutely no hostile feeling in Chile
against the United States, but such
feeling may be brought about unless
more prudence is displayed.
"The captain of the Itata speaks with
enthusiasm Of the public sympathy he
received in California, in strong contrast
with the vexatious conduct OF the
American officials.
"The captain of the Esmeralda reports
that Washington orders prevented him
from coaling at Acapulco, and thus the
Esmeralda was prevented for weeks
from assisting the Congressionalists.
Minister Egan has already. congrat
nlated Admiral Montt upon his cleo
ton as president. This is diplomatic
blunder, Admiral Montt being only 9
candidate for che presidency. 1t Ii
unfair, however, to attribute this un
pardonable mistake to Minister Egan'l
: desire to further interfere with ths
affairs Of Chile"

when he refused to leave, after being
told that it was not public house,
Carmon knocked him off the porch.
Gaigan got up and again tried to get in,
when Carmon went at him again, and
Gaigan fell off the steps, striking on his
head and shoulders. Gaigan's compan-
ion took him to the race track, and this
morning he was removed to the hospital
in dying condition. Carmon is under
