IMPRESSED STEAMSHIPS.
Atlantic Liners Chartered by the Gov
ernment for Transports.

Atlantic Liners Chartered by the Gov
ernment for Transports.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 23.-Captain Sar-
gent, of the steamship Ohio, which has
been chartered by the government, took
out clearance papers today for Boston.
The Ohio will leave this port for
Charlestown navy yard tomorrow morn
ing. On her arrival at Oharlestown
Captain Sargent, who has been her
commander since the organization of
the International Navigation company,
will, with the present crew, leave the
vessel, and she will be turned over to
the United States authorities.
1t is believed the steams hips Penn
sylvania, Indiana, Illinois and Cone
maugh, all sailing under American col
ore, and owned by the International
Navigation company, will be ordered to
Boston as soon as they arrive at an
American port. The Inman line flyers,
the City OF Paris and the City of New
York, and the Red Star steamers Fries
land, WesterlaDd and NoordIand, sail
ing under foreign colors, but owned by
American citizens, will, it is believed,
be chartered by the government within
short time. The City of Paris has
already been withdrawn from the COM
pany's service, and is now docked at
Birkenhead, England. The agents OF
the line say she is simply being over
hauled, preparatory to the summer sea-
son, but it is believed she is being pre-
pared for any emergency that may arise
requiring her use by the United States
government in the transportation of
troops and ammunition.

argument unless backed up by force,
and his present plan contemplates a
naval demonstration in the vicinity OF
Valparaiso.
In the New York navy yard activity
continues. The dynamite cruiser vesu-
vius is in dry dock having her lighting
tower protected with chain armor. The
torpedo boat Gushing is also being fitted
out with tubes.
There are now 1900 men employed in
the yards, distributed in the different
departments.
ADMIRAL GHERARDI's ORDERS.
The order to Rear Admiral Gherardi,
as commandant of the North Atlantic
squadron, to proceed with the Philadel-
phia and Concord to Montevideo, is
looked upon by the officers here as an
ticipating the Presidents message, and
possible action thereon. The orders of
those vessels have been interpreted as
meaning they shall proceed to Chile.
II the present idea is carried out the
Philadelphia, Chicago, Charleston, Bal
timore, San Francisco, Boston, Atlanta,
Yorktown, Concord and Bennington
will be rendezvoused at Valparaiso
They mount ninety large breech-
loading rifles as msin battery,
and 124 Hotchkiss and Gatling guns as
a secondary battery. If the Newark
should be added to the feet, she would
add twelve large rifles and seventeen
secondary guns. The question OF coal
supply for the American cruisers might
be partially solved by the seizure OF
Sandy Point, Chilean settlement in
the straits of Magellan, where there are
extensive coal mines. As the place is
not fortified, it would be easy OF cap
ture.
PREPARATIONS FOR DEMONSTRATIONS.
Every preparation is being made for a
demonstration. Great quantities Of coal
are being stored where the United States
can get at it whenever wanted, and the
department has given special attention
to the problem of coaling at sea.
The president has submitted to con-
gress communication from Secretary
Tracy approving the selection OF Algiers,
on the right bank OF the Mississippi
river near the Gulf of Mexico, as
suitable site for dry dock.

SANTIAGO DE CHILE, Jan. 23.---lt was
learned today that the question at issue
between Chile and the United States
has assumed more acute phase. This
information ia to the effect that the
Chilean government has received from
the government of the United States
an ultimatum which in the strongest
terms states that diplomatic relations
between the two countries will cease
unless their offensive circular note sent
out by Senior Malta, the recent Chilean
foreign minister, in regard to the Balti-
more affair, is withdrawn. Further
more the ultimatum demands that Chile
Immediately make reparation for the
attack by the mob upon the Baltimore's
sailors at Valparaiso, and that she make
an apology for those attacks. The ulti-
matum concludes with the statement
that the United States will not brook
fprther delay on the part of Chile in
answering the demands of the American
government.

THE BRITISH Grown.
Great Interest Taken In the Successor
ship Since Clarence's Death.

LONDON, Jan. 23.--A very remarkable
feature in connection with the death of
the duke of Clarence is that demonatra-
tions are still being made. Albert
memorial chapel was opened to the
public today, and hundreds OF people
went from London to Windsor for the
purpose of looking at the coffin contain
ing the remains of the duke. The fear
that the duchess of Fife may, through
series of events succeed to the throne,
continues to excite the English people,
particularly those of the nobility and
upper classes. A we'll informed cores
pondent says Prince George of Wales,
who, through his brothers death, be-
comes heir presumptive to the throne,
will almost Immediately be made duke
of Sussex, and his engagement to some
princess will be announced before the
end of the season.

Some English Comment.

New York, Jan. 23.-The Herald's
London correspondent says: In today's
Army and Navy Gazette there is an ar
ticle which says: "The United States
has lost much prestige in South Amer
ica, owing to the unfavorable comment
which naval experts have made upon
the power of the United States to imme-
diately back its somewhat al bitrary de-
mand. Therefore it is extremely prob
able that within few days strong
American feet will be concentrated in
Chilean waters, and then if matters are
not settled amicably measures will be
taken to demonstrate that barking can
be followed by biting. In this case the
Gazette advises the English admiralty to
send ships to assist the Warspite in case
of trouble"

the journey we'll, not a flaw being
visible in any part of it, though the
car which bore it out here showed con-
siderable signs of wear. The attendants
who accompanied it state that the gun
attracted great attention on its tour
across the continent, crowds OF people
gathering at stations along the line to
view it, and in many places the school
children were given half holiday for
the purpose. In this city people began
early to flock to the Potrero, where the
iron works are located, to look at "Big
Betsy" as the gun has been properly
christened. General inspection of the
gun, however, will not be allowed until
it has been safely landed from its car,
which will be returned Immediately to
Washington for another 12-inch gun,
destined for the Monterey.

Reasons on Which Chile Bases Her
Request for His Recall.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. "a Wash
ington special says: The recall OF Minis
ter Egan was formally requested of
Secretary Blaine yesterday by Minister
Montt, head of the Chilean legation in
this city. 1t is said that the Chilean
government bases its request for the re-
call of Egan upon the allegations that
the American minister has been guilty
of making reports to Washington that
were deliberately false, and of engag.
iug in intrigues for the purpose of
creating trouble between the United
States and Chile.
1.-THE publication of the correspond
ence with Chile" said gentleman who
ia acquainted with it, "will show that
President Harrison and Secretary Blaine
are fully in accord in their approval OF
Egan's course"
The report in Washington that the
United States government had recalled
Minister Egan. created considerable ex-
citement, but it was soon learned that
the story was without foundation.

The Art of Consolation IL Learned

A most interesting hour was spent by
Mrs. Cooper's large class yesterday In the
discussion OF the life of Dorcas-of her
death and her raising TO life again by the
apostle Peter. Mrs. Cooper opened the
lesson by saying: People who are strong
to help others and who are willing are the
ones who are sent for when trouble Is in
the house. Dorcas was a philanthropist.
She was fleet-footed in works of benevo-
lence. She delighted in serving others.
The record says her prayers and her aims
went up as memorial before God. Some
folks turn the needy over to Gods merev,
and show no mercy themselves. But Dorcas
believed that faith and works should 90 to-
gether. Dorcas died, and great was the
lamentation over her. Hundreds lived on
who were of little use in the world. II
