Sir Edwin at the PeopIe's.

Sir Edwin Arnold will occupy the
platform of the Peoples church tomor-
row evening, and, from the advance
sales, Is likely to meet crowded audi
ence. The Light of Asia, =" 1.-The Light
of the World" and other publications of
which he is the author have made Sir
Edwin ArnOld'S name almost house
hold word, and the mere announcement
that he will read several selections from
bis own writings, interspersed with brief
dissertations on the subject matter. is
sufficient to create the keenest interest
among the cultured citizens of St.
Paul. Sir Edwin Arnold is one of the
most learned Oriental scholars, and
everything relating to that subject
which he may present is certain TO be of
the greatest interest. In the Eastern
cities he has visited during his tour of
this country, Sir Edwin has been greet
ed with crowded audiences, and the
newspapers speak in the highest COM
mendable manner of his readings.

PEACE INSTEAD OF WAR.
Chill Will Make PREPARATION to the
United States,

NEW YORK, Dee. ga Washington
special to the World says: There is the
highest authority for the statement that
the department of state has received
from official sources, though informally,
assurances that the CHILEAN government
will make proper PREPARATION for the as
sauitS upon the sailors of the Balti-
more III Valparaiso. This knowledge
has been communicated to the navy
department, and as result Secret
Tracy and Assistant Secretary Solay
spent the day at the department, not
outstanding that it was Christmas. III
preparing fresh orders to United States
war vessels in Valparaiso harbor or
American ports.
The statements telegraphed from
Washington of late in regard to the al
legged mobilization of a fleet of merchant
vessels to act as transports have caused
only amusement in the higher circles of
the navy department, but in view of
certain dispatches from California.
which seemed in measure to substan-
tate these reports, Secretary Tracy
has deemed it advisable to make an
authoritative denial.
This declaration was made last night
by Assistant Secretary Solely, who said:
The secretary has read these reports,
and has not regarded them as worth de-
nying until the publication of tele-
gram from San Francisco, stating that
Admiral Brown had chartered large
Ocean-gOing tug, capable of carving
several guns, and of being used In the
transportation of supplies. etc, in case
of war with Chilli. There is absolutely
no word of truth in this report. The
department has not authorized Admiral
IN oil 70 oh 4,
a tug, or any tug for such a purpose.
AS matter of fact, Admiral Brown has
done nothing of the sort, and the story
is pure invention.
Equally baseless is the statement
that the government is arranging to
charter merchant vessels for trans
ports and other purposes. No vessels
have been chartered and no lists of YES
sells have been prepared for use in any
such connection. l make this state
ment without reservation, and trust
that it will not be misunderstood. Let
me add broader and more important
! declaration. There is not a single yes
sci of the United States now under or
ders for CHILEAN waters. There are two
ships at present in Valparaiso harbOr-
the Yorktown and the Boston. The
latter arrived there yesterday and has
been promptly ordered 10 San Fran
cisco.
I'm a word, you may say authorita-
lively that not a single step of any de-
scriptiOn is being taken by the United
States looking toward a conflict with
the Gillian government. No warlike
demonstration is being prepared, and
there is no present intention on the
part of this government to make any
such demonstration. In view of the
false reports which have gained cur
rency of late, the department considers
that this statement should be made"
Neither Secretary Blaine nor Secre-
tary Tracey would say anything last
night as to the recent advices from
Chill, but ample evidence as to their
pacific tone was to be found in the gen.
eraI relaxation in state and navy depart
ment circles, and IN the orders sent to
the Boston to proceed at once to San
| Francisco.

BRIT0NS EXPECT WAR
They Reckon That Chilli and
the United States Must
Do Battle.
Details Of the Contest Dis
cusSed Seriously in
the Clubs.
PeruvianS Would Help Uncle
Peruvians Would Help Uncle
Sam to Discipline Their
Old Enemy.
At Washington All Talk OF
War Is Characterized
AS Foolish.

LONDON, Dec. 26.-This weeks Val
paraisO and Washington advices have
caused the apprehension of war be-
tween Chilli and the United States to
deepen. A high officer of the army is
said to have remarked on Friday that
the United States could not avoid fight
ing without incurring the imputation of
cowardice, and that Chill could not
apologize without humiliation. This is
the general feeling in both army and
navy circles as expressed az the clubs,
and so far has club opinion gone in this
direction that many have given up
talking of the chances of war and are
discussing the details.
Public opinion is almost unanimo US
that war means the reduction of Chill
to second place in South America,
and that the United States, whatever
might be the varying fortune of events
to begin with, would not stay its hand
until Chilli was compelled, like Mexico,
to acknowledge the cOnquerOr.
A noticeable feature of South Ameri-
can talk here is the evident eagerness
of the PeruvianS and Argentinians,
and even the BraZlianS, to see
Chill attacked by the United States.
A leading Peruvian resident of
London said to the correspondent of the
International Telegraph company, that
the PeruvianS would never forget, not
so much that they have been conquered
by the Chilians, as the barbarities per-
petrated by that people.
The ChilIanS could not have been
more merciless. he said, if they had been
Huns or VandalS, instead of a nation
claiming civilization. They had COM
mltted wantOn and wholly useless out
RACES, and had deprived Peru of her
richest territory. II the United States,
he added, chose to go to war with
emil, the Americans would find a USE
ful friend, if not an ally. in Peru.

David s. Stanley, department COM

Capt. Hardy for four days and there is
anxiety over his safety. 1t is known
he is among the Mexican sympathizers
