of the United States marshal Mt San
Diego, Cal, in Selling the Chilean

Senator Trumbull, of Chile, who is in
the city, claims to have the best of legal
advice to the effect that the proposed
transfer Of arms from the schooner
Robert and Minnie is not violation of
the neutrality provisions, even if it took
place in an American dock. The owners
Of the schooner are becoming so alarmed
over the situation that they desire to
back out of their charter, but Trumbull,
who makes no secret of the fact that he
is engaged in doing his utmost to start
the Robert and Minnie's cargo toward
the rebels, has settled this difficulty by
furnishing an indemnity bond for her
lconfiscation.

NEW COMPLICATIONS
The Insurgents Steamer Itata
Leaves San Diego Harbor,
TAKING THE MARSHAL WITH HER

The Government OfaoiaI Is Landed
Several Miles Down the Coast and
the Vessel Proceeds ON Her Way.
Meantime BaImaceda Proposes TO
Keep Up the Fight IN Chile.
SAN FRANCISCO, May s.-Dispatches
from San Diego state that additional
complications have arisen in connection
with the seizure Of the CHILEAN steam
ship Itsta in that port by orders from
Washington. The Ttata has gone to sea,
carrying away with her the United
States deputy marshal who had been
placed ON board as her custodian.
Marshal Gard, after seizing the Itata
and leaving Deputy Marshal Spencer on
board, started down the bay to seize the
Chilean schooner Robert and Minnie,
which was lowering outside: He took
ment CT troops from the barracks.
Safe Across the Line.
The tug encountered the schooner
about three miles south Of the inter
national line, and fifteen miles south
west from Point Iona. The schooner
being in Mexican waters the marshal
dared not interfere with her, but re-
turned to San Diego. At o'clock in
the afternoon the captain of the Itata
went on board from the city, and I'M
mcdiately afterwards the anchor was
raised and the ship steamed down the
bay, passing Marshal Cards tug COM
ing in.
| The TtaSa Heavily Armed.
The marshal reports that when the
! Itata passed him the pilot was seen to
be guarded by two men and four cannon
were seen to be manned and apparently
ready for use.
Nearly a hundred Chileans were
ranged in line on deck, armed with
rites, Prior to sailing only about fifty
men had been visible on board the ves-
sci and one small cannon was mounted
!, forward.
When well outside the harbor the
Itata was headed down the coast, with
the apparent intention Of making the
harbor of San Clemente.
Going out again later, on the tug,
Marshal Gard was unable to find any
trace of the Robert and Minnie, which
had probably been lowed away by her
consort, the Itata.
Deputy Marshal Spencer returned to
the city last night He states that he
was put ashore fifteen miles down the
? coast, and the Itata then proceeded OF
her way.

MINING IN OLD MEXICO.
A Great Industry.

Mr.. A. w. Clifford, an old Kansas
newspaper man, who has spent ten
years mining in the country, says Few
people in this country comprehend the
magnitude of the developed mining in
terests of Old Mexico, saying nothing of
the thousands of INDICATED claims lying
dormant in well defined and proven
leads that have yielded millions OF dol
lars. A few enterprising' Americans.
Englishmen and Germans who can see
the magnitude of the coming mining,
wave for Mexico have visited the coun-
try and purchased valuable properties
that will undoubtedly yield handsome
returns during the next three years. l
am partial to mining IN Mexico. l think
it the greatest field on this continent.
It offers greater inducements than all
others. The bankers and business men
of Pittsburg, Kansas have purchased a
big gold mine recently, and organized
the Pittsburg-Mexican Mining Co., and
are Offering the first twenty-five thou
sand shares at only 81 per share. in my
Judgment this stock will be worth from
S3 to So per share within two years. r.
