Blaine Advised of Minister Motte's
Recent Utterances.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15-Secretary Blaine
has received q long cable message from
Minister Egan, at Santiago de Chile, but re-
fuses positively to say anything about it.
1t is understood to convey the substance of
the comments of Mr.. Motta, the Chilean
minister of foreign affairs, on the recent
official utterances of the President and the
Secretary OF the Navy in regard to the VAL
paraiso incident. The views of the minis
ter on this subject have been embodied ia q
circular letter TO the diplomatic officers of
the Chilean government and have already
been published In the papers of this country.
EoAN BLAMED FOR EVERYTHING.
LONDON, Dec. ia correspondent of
the Times at Santiago de Chile telegraphs
that the entire newspaper press of Chile
places the responsibility for the difficulties
now existing between Chile and the United
States upon Mr. Egan, the United States
minister. None Of the papers make any at.
tack upon President Harrison.
CHILE's REPLY.
LONDON, Dec. 16, 3 A. M.-The Times
correspondent in Paris sends to his paper a
column dispatch giving the text of Chile's
reply to President Rarrison's message In
commenbluB oh JUG SUI pElslnB character
of Americas action" the correspondent
says: 1.-THE violence of President Har-
rison's message would be repuguant
to European ideas, even If they only were
affected. If, however, America went 10
war for u sailors quarrel Europe might wit
ness a spectacle so singular that It would
relieve the monotony Of the present times.
America having refused to sign treaty
against privateering, Chile would be en-
titled to equip her entire mercantile marine,
even American built vessels, as privateers.
Happily this is merely an Hypothesis Presi-
dent Harrison's messageis merely rhetoric" !"

pppr-pr1CAN1sM IN VIRGINIA.

To the Editor Of The ribune.
sir: In your article in The Daily Tribune OF oeVo-
ber g. entitled GOOD Work In Virginia. you express
the sentiment of thousands Of Republicans in this state
as 10 the politics in Virginia. While we have great
number here who openly antagonize what Malone Gals
Republican organization" we also have many WHO
seem TO lack courage express their views when they
happen to clash with the edlcts OF General Malone
The situation here is one that is puzzling to the
wisest heads Although it has been thoroughly demon
strated that it is impossible for us to win with General
Malone at the head of the party, yet it seems to be
inst as much an impossblity to retire him to the place
Of private citizen and allow the voice of Republican
ism in Virginia to be heard in its own behalf mat
he WAS great man in Virginia politics when his ser
vices we're In demand we all ready to achnow-
edge and II at the present time he would resign the
state charmanshp and assist In building up the parry
under the leadership of some one agreeable to all
classes and such leader easily be found ne
would st be great But to persist In keeping hllnse1
NJ the head of affairs when there is no chance 10 be
successful nnder his management, seems like the great
est fcTly. L.

CANADA IN THE TRIBUNE.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir; As Canadian who retains lively interest
in the political affairs Of his native country, wish
to thank you for the intelligent manner in which the
issues Of the day in Canadian politics dealt with
in your columns. Among the bewildering mass Of
misinformation concerning Canada which is to be
found in the daily press, such intimate knowledge
of the real situation as has been displayed In your
recent editorials is very gratifying. While l differ
from your attitude toward the question OF commercial
union believing ms do that the adoption OF such a
system as that advocated by Erastus Wlman would be OF
immense benefit to the people Of both countries must
acknowe the entire fairness with which you have
dealt with the subject from your standpoint trust
most amicable relations between the two great d.
visions OF this continent. j. WHlDDEN GRAHAM.

in the case were, and inquiry find the following
On page Xxx Of the report of the Commissioner Of
Indian Affairs for 1853 there is found account OF
the visit OF Moses, saFsarp-Ra T0nasket and Lot to
Washington, with a memorandum which was signed
bye Moses Tonasket and ssrp Ia, and by the Hon.
H. NJ. Teller, Secretary Of the Interior.
In this memorandum Of the conference held It is
said "Tonasket asked for a bOardng-sch0Ol To be
established" etc The Secretary also agrees TO ask
Congress to make appropriation TO enable him to
erect for Chief Moses building and maintain a school
therein
II appears from this memorandum that tie subject
Of schoolhonse for Moses and Tonasket was fully
discussed at the conference between these men and
the secretary, but it does not appear from the memo
randum that anything whatever said on the oc-
casion about a schOOlhOuse for Lot from which think
the conclusion is warranted that Chief Lots memory
is at fault as TO what actually promised him at
that time.

me several times to observe that an Indians memory
as 10 precisely what promises made TO him Is
not trustworthy. In number Of instances have
been quoted as making promises Of which / was en-
