Denial Of a Sensational Report From VAL

The L. s S. Baltimore will leave Calho for
San Francisco today. All on board are unre-
served in their expression of Indignation over
their treatment at Valparaiso, and express the
hope that Congress will support the President
in his demand for proper PREPARATION.
The tone of Minister Matta's dispatch in re-
ply 20 President Harrison y message is regarded
with astouiskment at Callao. The general
opinion there seems to be that the relations Of
the two countries are so strained that Chile
must retraot or else conflicts inevitable. 1t
is thought that Chile intends to stanti by Min
lister Malta 1t is wel-known fact at Callao
that Chiieans are trying to enlist men for their
fleet.
here is no truth in the sensational report
sent from Valparaiso yesterday regarding a
plan to burn the American legation, Whereby
pretext would be given Tor mobbing the
buildings and seizing the refugees. The story
was started by the adherents OF Baimaceda,
WAC also have set aiioat II Tunor that President
Aontt would be killed on December &c, the
