CHILE CORRESPONDENCE.
EDUARDO MATTE CHOSEN TO FORM
A NEW CABINET.
McCreery and Harlow Found Guilty OF
Sending Sensational Dispatches to
New York Papers-A New American
Consul Wanted at Valparaiso.

New YORK, March 10.-The Herald's
Valparaiso correspondent cables: 1t is
understood that at a meeting OF the Lib
eral party last night Eduardo Matte was
selected to form a new cabinet. The
following are said to be the composition
of the cabinet: Minister of the interior,
Eduardo Matte; foreign affairs, Senior
Costellon justice, Gaspar Toro; finance,
Augustin Edwards; war aud marine,
Luis Barros Borgono; public works, VI
cente Davila Larrain. With the excep-
ton of Senior Borgono all these men held
cabinet positions during the first year OF
Balmaceda's presidency.
Judge of Crimes Noguera continued
the investigation of the case OF Lleuten-
ant Harlow, who, under the name OF
Reamock, sent dispatches to several
New York newspapers, and Consul Nc
Creery, who also wrote dispatches tothe
same papers. In the judges opinion,
the dispatches sent by Harlowe and Nc
Creerv contained many untruthtul state
ments which were calculated to operate
against the amicable relations OF Chile
with the United States. He says there
is also evidence to prove that several
kilograms were sent to the American le-
CATION at Santiago addressed to Rea'
mock. Upon the formation OF the new
cabinet the Chilean minister OF foreign
affairs will be urged to bring the matter
to the notice of the United States gov
eminent.
Seflor Isidore Errazuriz Gays the
Chilean government would like to return
Consul McCreery's exequatur. except
for fear of giving offense to the United
States, and it would be greatly appre
ciated if the United States of its own
accord would send a new consul te
Valparaiso who would not lend himself
to transmitting news dispatches based
on diplomatic data obtained through
| his official position.

BERING SEA PATROL.
Nine Vessels Available for Service
Case of an Emergency.

Nine Vessels Available for Service in
Case of an Emergency.
WASHINGTON, March 1O.-General
Foster of the state department, who is
assisting the president in the Bering
sea negotiations had long conference
at the navy department today with
Secretary Tracy and Commodore Ram
sey, chief of the bureau OF navigation.
The conference, it is thought, was di-
rected to the consideration of the course
to be pursued by the navy in enforcing
the contention of this government that
pelagic sealing in the Bering sea shall
be wholly suspended pending the settle
ment of the controversy by arbitration.
If Great Britain declines the PROPOSE
ton for the renewal of the modus vi
vendi, this government will no doubt
send all the available vessels to the
Bering sea soon enough, if possible, to
control its approaches and prevent the
entrance of all sealing vessels, American
as we'll as other vessels.
The vessels available for this service
are the Charleston, the Baltimore and
the Ranger at San Francisco; the Mo
hican, now on her wav to Port Orchard
Washington, with the Nipsic in tow
and the Yorktown and Boston
now en- route to San Francisco from Cal
lao. The revenue cutters Bear, Rush
and Corwin, now fitting out at Sar
Francisco for their annual cruise to the
seal islands, will also assist.
The president will take no further &C
ton in regard to the Bering sea matter
until he receives reply from Salisbury
to Wharton's note, insisting on the re-
newal of the modus vivendi of last year

discriminating She Food Fish.

The cupidity of the fisherman en- the
Atlantic coast is rapidly destroying near
ly every kind Of sea food upon which the
people have been accustomed to rely.
The complaints of the men who control
the fish markets are long and loud that
the supply of fish is much less for this
season than it was the last The lobster
factories on the Maine coast are all
closed, and one has to 90 down as far
east as Prince Edward island to find
lobster with d shell on his back at fair
price. The herring factories have be-
gun to exhaust the immense schools of
herring that gather around Grand Ma
nan and work their way into the Eay Of
Fundy.
The mackerel have been SO scarce dur.
ing the season, from the wholesale de-
struction of schools, that single mack
erel is today more expensive than a
pound of beef. The bluefish are still
plenty, but there are signs that even this
species of fish is beginning to be preyed
upon by the methods employed by the
fishermen in catching them The fisher
men say that they are obliged to use
Los Angeles herald., 1892-03-11

these destructive methods in order to
protect themselves from the encroach-
ments of those who refuse to keep to the
old methods. and SO the wholesale de-
struction goes on without restraint
The time has come when if the sea is
to Weld to us much longer the delicious
food which makes life on the Atlantic
coast a delight to the people OF the west,
as well as to the natives, different
methods of catching the fish, and pro-
lection for them in the close season,
must be established by law, for which
the proper enforcement must be ar
ranged. The necessity is urgent There
is not single species of fish used for the
table which is not now in great danger
of extinction The salmon and the shad
have been protected, but protection Is
equally demanded for the cod, the her
ring the lobster and the mackerel. =

Associated Press Dispatches
New YORK, March 10.-The Posts
London correspondent cables: The
news from America is the absorbing
topic Of discussion so far as foreign af-
fairs are concerned. 1t is intimated
strongly that should the American gov
ernment attempt retaliation against
Canada, England will withdraw from
the arbitration and meet any issue the
United States may choose to raise in
the Bering sea controversy, with the
plain assertion of the right of British
subjects to hunt seal outside the recog-
nized limit Of United States jurisdiction.
This position is urged by many Tories,
and is said to be regarded without dis
favor, although, as yet, without open
approval at the foreign office. The
Tories are desperate for an issue that
will arouse jingoism and rally the coun-
try to the support of the government.
There has been notable disposition
OF late on the part of the newspapers
commonly supposed to be in the con-
fidence OF the government to foster a
feeling of hostility to America, and
arouse the impression that the Ameri-
cans are unfriendly to Great Britain.
With this object in view. ridiculous
communications have been published,
alleged to have been written by Ameri-
cans, and containing bombastic menaces
against England. Even if these letters
were genuine, they would not be
published under ordinary circumstances.
There is some reason, however,
to believe that they have been written
to order, as the Tories regard the time
favorable for an anti-American demon
stration, on account of the irritation
that exists among number working
people who have had their wages re-
duced or been deprived of employment.
altogether-especially strong in Wales
and the manufacturing districts.
In naval quarters, while the officials
are reticent, unofiicially it is stated that
the British squadron in the Pacific can
be depended upon to do its duty in the
event of any encounter with the Ameri-
cans.

SAN DIEGO'S LATEST WONDERFUL
ACQUISITION.
1t Came Without Any Subsidy-Turthe1
Details of the Temblor on the Desert.
s. Z. Gaskell's Story.

1t will be remembered that in the
week following the late earthquake
many reports came in from the back
country, all of which went to show that
the disturbance was more severely felt
the nearer one happened to be toward
that far southeast country known as the
Cocopah region, says the San Diego
Union of yesterday. A party of pros
pectors who came in from the desert
few days ago, claim to have seen from
the east side of Laguna mountains an
illumination of the heavens off to the
southeast at night and an inky cloud of
smoke by day.
Bob Weymes, who, about two months
ago, went prospecting in the country be-
low the line and in the northeastern
part of the peninsula, says heiwas told
by man named Elliot, at Los Juntas,
that the Cocopah mountain had been
splitting fire. Mr.. Weymes, on the way
back to this city, was camped on the
east slope OF the Laguna mountains and
there felt the severest shock of the earth
quake, and afterwards saw smoke far off
to the southeast.
s. E. Gaskell of Compo was in the
city yesterday. He has not been where
he could see far in the direction of the
Cocopah region, but he says that Mr..
Nickel, who was in an elevated locality
at the time of the earthquake, told him
that he saw dense, black cloud far &c
the southeast, which spread out like 9
vast umbrella, and at night saw in tht
heavens the reflection OF great fire il
the region.
Mr.. Gaskell says that George Carpen
ter, extensively engaged in stock raising
in the Compo country, says he was OF
the desert many miles east of the Comp,
looking after cattle about the time of thu
earthquake. While riding horsebacl
his horse stumbled on the edge of {
crevice in the earth, some eighteeI
inches wide, recovered himself ant
jumped across. On examination Mr.
Campbell found it to be recently formed
evidently caused by the earthquake, ant
apparently with no bottom. In man.
places the surface of the earth wa
broken. In deep cafIon through stee]
walls of rocks, where the old Yum
stage road passes to the desert, larg
quantities of rocks were rolled down o.
to the road, to such an extent as to max
travel by wagon almost impossible
Everything points to the fact that ther
is an active volcano in the Cocopah, an
that the earthquake was very severe il

These are important facts to deter

They are facts, too, that should be

every taxpayer may be informed.
In case of emergency, perhaps, spe-

THE WATER QUESTION.
An Admonition to Go Slow in Treating
the Subject.


EDITORS HERALD: We notice COM
munication from J. H. Woodard,
["Yours Truly"] addressed to the coun-
cil's special committee, on the water
question, including what purported to
be proposition from his principals to
build water works for the city.
If it is proposition, it is the merest
outline of one, and savors more of a
bluff, or another move on the chess
board to capture our queen. For they
cay they don't choose to commit them
selves to any line of action; that they
know just where they stand now, and
that they will promise nothing, and ad-
jures him as an agent or attorney to
make no promises without first consult
ing them.
But first Of all, they want to know
just what the city can do. Now in view
OF the claims of the City Water COM
pany, or this new company, possibly all
the same) make as to their legal
rights, and as to the value of their
plant, furnishing no itemized statement
OF it's cost nor allow an examination of
their books to determine the same,
we would in all candor ask how they
can expect our city to tell them what
they can do. We will agree with them
on one thing, and that is, about going
slow.
Inasmuch as they claim to know
where they stand, a wise policy would
seem to indicate that our city be fully
persuaded of it's standing, too, before
they make move in a matter of such
magnitude, particularly in view OF the
wide difference of legal opinions.
We feel sure that any private indi-
vidual or corporation having such vast
interest at stake, where the value de-
pended so largely upon their legal rights
would first take measures to determine
what these legal rights were, and that
those measures should be proportionate
to the amount involved.
Procure and pay attorneys whose
opinions so far as possible would be
safe to act upon. Legal opinions that
cost nothing perhaps may be said to
have rating and their values fixed as
all other commodities.
lnasmuch as there is plenty of time
and no interest is particularly suffering,
full and careful investigation should
be had ito determine our legal rights;
andsthe cost of the plant we purpose TO
buy. Ii we understand the situation, it
is about this: Our city does not know
what their legal rights are to the water
