CHILL TRACTS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 25.-The
Chilean government has sent reply to
the ultimatum of the United States.
The reply is in effect rs follows:
Chile agrees to withdraw the often
sive note sent by Senior Malta to all the
Chilean ministers abroad and acknowl-
edges that it's issuance was due to an
error of Judgment. Chile withdraws
it's request for the recall of United
States Minister Egan.
In addition to this the Chilean gov
eminent in it's answer proposes that
the affair of the attack on the Balti-
more's sailors in Valparaiso be sub
mitted to the arbitration of some neu-
trail nation. If this proposition is not
acceptable to the United States govern
ment, the Chilean government suggests
that the matter be submitted to the de-
cision of the supreme court of the Unit
ed States.
For both the insult and the injury
Chill very wisely, sensibly and honora-
bly, offers full reparation. The insult
ing note she withdraws and disavows.
The affair of October 16 she offers to
leave to the arbitration of neutral
nation, or to the decision of the SUI
preme court. That offer is equivalent
to an acknowledgement that the Gillian
position in respect to the matter
was unsound and could not be sustained
and on the determined facts either
form OF settlement almost of necessity
must involve a decree of indemnity and
reparation for the injury, as Chile, no
doubt, is well aware in making the Of
fer. We can hardly arbitrate as to the
fact that the assault on our sailors was
wanton and injurious. I'VE may under
Chile's offer propose to arbitrate the
terms of settlement, and such propo-
sition we ought to make
The most distinguished financier in

President Harrison's message is likely
to cause hostilities. On the contrary
the message will prevent them, because
it will cripple Chile financially. To
my own knowledge, Chile has for weeks
been vainly trying to float securities in
Europe at satisfactory figures.

THE very sudden death of Miss Julia
Griffin at Niagara Falls, N. Y, recalls
the fact that she was the first woman
to receive pension for her services as
an army nurse during the late war.
She served as nurse in the war and
was taken prisoner in the battle of
Winchester, but was paroled. During
her work in the field she contracted
asthma. In April, 1888, "a special act Of
congress was passed and signed by
President Cleveland. allowing her a
pension. She was born in Hudson, N.
