The Baltimore A Accident.
On the 10th Of October IN event oc-
CURED i'll Valparaiso so seriols and
tragic i'll its circumstances and results
as to very justly excite the indignation
OF our people and to call for prompt and
decided action on the part of this gov
ernnent. A considerable number of
the sailors of the United States Steam
ship Baltimore, then i'll the lIa-bor of
Valparaiso, being upon shore learc and
unarmed, We're assaulted by armed men
nearly simultaneously in different local
tiles i'll the city. One petty officer was
killed outright and seven or eight sea
men We're seriously wounded. one of
whom has since died. So savage md
brutal was the assault that several of
our sailors received more tnall two, and
one AS many us eighteen stab wounds.
An investigation us the affair was
promptly made by a board Of officers Of
the Baltimore and their report shows
that
These Assaults Were l-nprovoked,
that our men We're conducting them
selves in Il penceablc and orderly man
ner. and that some Of the police Of the
city took part III the assault and used
their weapons with fatal effect, while a
few others with some well-disposed citi-
zens, endeavored to protect our men.
Thirty-Six Of our sailors We're arrested.
and some Of them, while being taken to
prison. We're cruelty beaten and NAL
treated The fact that they We're all
discharged, no criminal charge being
lodged against any one of them, shows
Very clearly that they were innocent Of
any breach OF the peace.
Was an Insult to Uncle sam.
So far rs | have vet been able to learn
no other explanation Of this bloody
work has been suggested than that it
had its origin in hostility to these men
as sailors i'll tile United States navy,
wearing the uniform of their govern
ment, ana not in any individual net Or
personal atimosity The attention Of
the CEllian government WAS at once
called 10 this affair ana d statement of
