President Harrison Makes n Decided
Demand aud Chill Promises Amends.
The question at issue between Chill and
the United States has assumed most
acute phase. This information is to the
effect that the Chill an governmen mt has re.
ceived from the government OF the United
States an ultimatum which in the strong
est possible terms states that diplomatic
relations between the two countries will
cease unless the offensive circular note
| sent out by Senior Malta. recently the
Gillian foreign minister. in regard TO the
Baltimore affair, is withdrawn. Further
more, the ultimatum demands that Chill
Immediately make reparation for the
attack by the mob upon the Baltimore's
sailors in Valparaiso. and that she make
an apology for those attacks. The
ultimatum concludes with the statement
that the United States will tolerate no
further delay on the part OF Chill in
answering the demands of the American
government. Naturally the principal con-
versation everywhere IS on this topic, and
while il cannot be said that the excitement
has reached the state that is commonly
known as the 'war fever" yet the natural
martial instincts of the Gillian people are
been definitely ascertaiEed that Senior
Perrera, the Gillian minister of foreign
affairs, has sent to United States Minister
Egan a final notification that the Chilian
government will reply at once TO the note

ceived Instructions from his government

containing the ultimatum OF the United
States.
The New York Herald has the following
from it's Valparaiso correspondent: l had
an interview with Eduardo Malta and
Judge Alfonso, both of whom are members
of the council of state. When 1 informed
them OF the nature Of the ultimatum sent
by Secretary Blaine, they expressed con-
siderable surprise at its terms, and with
out formally committing themselves, both
agreed that it would be suplne act to
now withdraw Matta's letter.
Chili's reply to the ultimatum Is in effect
as follows: Chill agrees TO withdraw the
offensive note sent by Senior Malta to all
the Gillian ministers abroad and acknowl-
edges that its issuance was due TO an error
| OF Judgment. Chill also withdraws its re-
quest for the withdrawal OF United States
Minister Egan. In addition 10 this the
CHILEAN government in its answer proposes
that the affair of the attack on the Balti-
more's sailors in Valparaiso be submitted
| TO the arbitrat on of some neutral union.
II this propos ton is not acceptable to the
United States government, the Gillian
government suggests that the matter DO
