Of Americans from the steamer Baltimore were
landed and they attended the funeral unmo-

the local authorities OF Valparaiso arc investi-
eating as to the cause Of the trouble. 1t has
already been ascertained that the CHILEAN mob
made the attack on the Americans and that
the onslaught was o peculiarly brutal one.
The Chilians were all armed with knives and
pistols. whereas the Americans had but few

ientless feeling toward AmGricans: and max;

denim the brutal attack and express hope that

DEAD ON CRESCENT BEACH.
A MIDNIGHT TRAGEDY At A SHORE
RESORT NEAR BOSTON.


which Two Men and n Woman.
BosToN. Oct. 19.-A mysterious tragedy is
bothering the river police tonight. and as yet
there is nothing tangible upon which they can
60 to work. The body OF man had been left
nigh upon the sand at Crescent
There was nothing about the clothing that
would lead to an identification Of the body. but
there was discolorations about the head and
face that Indicated violence. 1t was apparent
that the body had not been long in the water.
Under ordinary circumstances the body
would have been sent to the morgue. with the
idea that the man had fallen into the water
while drunk. or had fallen from some
passing vessel. but the Waterman Of Hotel
strathmore, which is within a stones throw
OF the plnce where the body was found, tells
story that adds q moro important phase
to tho case He says that there were two
quarrels near the Strathmoro after dark
on Sunday night. In the first instance
woman was seen walking toward the
sea near the Strathmore in a manner indicat-
Ing that she might be contemplating suicide
Behind her. engaged in an animated discus
sion. walked n man, who seized her when she
was near tho water and forced her to walk up
the railroad track In the direction Of Boston.
At about midnight or an hour after the first
there, were two men and a woman concerned.
and they stool on the railroad track near the
place where tho body was found to-day. Their
conversation was SO loud as to attract the at
tcntiOn OF the night Waterman.
There was no train passing In either direction
after that time. These occurrences seem to
indicate that the unknown man was one of the
two men. and the police believe that his death
was the result OF the quarrel over tho woman.
Scores OF tho towsfolks have seen the body to-
day. but no one identified 1t. Without the
woman in the case 1t would have attracted no
nature Of the quarrel that would lead first to
attempted suicide and then to murder The
woman and her champion disappeared from
the neighborhood as mysteriously as they
came, and only the body OF the dead stranger
remains as evidence Of the midnight tragedy
The man was about 35 years old. His com
pleXion was dark. his height about five feet
six inches. his face rather thin. and he had q
heavy dark moustache. His whole an
pearanco was that of one not given
to dissipation, His clothes were Of black
and OF a fine diagonal pattern. and from his
pockets were taken an old fashioned silver
watch. some silver coins. and n few keys. The
shoes were Of the Congress pottern. A hat,
undoubtedly belonging to the man. was found
on the beach. quite q distance from the body,
soaked with blood.

lining was the name Of Lamson d Hubbard. a

Just awakening to an understanding that the
Chicagoans reached long ago.
Mr. Plat gave us the Worlds Fair" said
Mr. King. I'VE know all about that. and that
1t was for political reasons. II he had not
taken the position he did and Senator Fassett
had not obstructed things at Albany no power
on earth could have prevented New York from
getting the Fair We realized that New York
was tho natural site for an international expo
sition. Besides that. It was THE New YORK Sun
which first proposed the celebration and suG-
gested the form that 1t should take. The idea
belonged to you. and II politics had not entered
into the question no ono could have hoped to
get 1t away from you. But we wanted It. II we
could get 1t. of course. and we saw the advan-
tagc given to us by the opposition OF Plat to
having Democratic city get the Fair We
played 1t for all It was worth.
You see that Plat was afraid that the Ex-
position scheme would put the New York
Democracy before the country in way that
would net them popularity and favor. They
would be so strengthened that he could never
carry the State again. He conferred with
Quay. Dudley. and Yerkes. the street railroad
king OF Chicago. They helped in the deal and
fixed things up so that they would make pot

lators discount their prospective profits and
pool some money for their schemes. No one

prosperous and booming. We think Mr.
