dated January 1st, says Advices
have been received from Samoa to
the effect that another native war is

toa's men are said to be advancing

Garza's Revolt.
Information about the revolt of
General Cara in Northern Mexico,
is meagre. General Cara is rendez-
vousing troops in Texas near Fort
Ringgald, and every effort of the
United States troops now on the
frontier to break up the rendezvous
has been futile. Our troops have sue
ceeded in capturing one Mexican col
onel and that is all, though two or
three skirmishes have been fought.
The Mexican Government intends
asking permission to pursue the
revolutiOnists into this country if
necessary.
The Hawaiian Gable.
The u. S. S. Albatross has returned
from surveying line for the proposed
cable between the United States and
Honolulu. The trip was great sue
cess. Monterey has been selected for
the point where the cable shall land
in this country and Waikiki, four
miles south of Honolulu, as the Ha-
taken were 5000 fathoms, but the
general average was 200. The scien-
lists on the steamer were highly de-
lighted with the trip. At the island
over 100 varieties of fish were found,
some twenty-five of which are entirely
new to the scientific world.
The Row With Chile.
Minister Egan has received a polite
note from the new Minister of
Foreign Affairs, Perriera, informing
him of the desire of the new Govern
ment to maintain friendly relations
with him, both personal and official,
and also to preserve and maintain the
friendship existing between the
countries.
The official announcement of the
practical completion of judicial pro-
ceedings in Valparaiso and the inten-
tion of the Chilean legal authorities to
punish the three Chileans convicted
of participation in the assault, has
given satisfaction here, and is gener-
ally regarded as q distinct concession
by the Chileans to the United States,
as showing that there will not, in all
probability, be further undue delayin
the disposition of the case.
On January 4, correspondent
cabled as follows from Valparaiso: II
hear this evening that the Chilean
Government has cabled orders to
Minister Pedro Montt at Washington
to make q sincere apology to the
United States for the unfortunate and
deplorable attack upon the Balti-
more's sailors on October 18th last.
The apology, L am told, is unqualified
in its character.
"The other matters which have
been in dispute between Chile and the
United States are to be speedily con-
sidered by the new administration.
"From semi-official sources [ learn
that the reason why the Santiago
police are kept in the vicinity of the
American Legation is that the In
tendente Of the city is in constant re-
ceipt of letters containing threats to
burn and sack the legation. / am
informed on the same authority that
the Government desires to have the
police near at hand, so as to prevent
the execution of any such threats. 1t
is no secret here that many of those
who cherish ideas of war between the
United States and Chile are friends of
Balmaceda.n
Senior Montt, the Chilean Minister,
on January s, laid before Secretary
Blaine the information received from
the Chilean Minister of Foreign
Affairs in reference to the Baltimore
incident. From the extensive report
the District Attorney draws the fol-
lowing conclusions: First, the Incl
dent originated in a brawI between
intoxicated sailors of both nations,
and grew in proportion on account of
the ward in which it occurred; second,
the policemen did all they were di-
rected to do to suppress the riot-this
has been acknowledged by all the wit
nesses, except two American sailors;
third, only one isolated shot was fired
it was from a revolver, the police
carry carbines. The District Attorney
indicts Carlo Gomez, Chilean; Fred
ertdo Rodriguez, Chilean; Ahkma-
ola, a Chilean; and Davidson, an
American, and asks that the first be
given three to five years confinement,
the second two to eighteen months,
and the latter two twenty to forty
days. imprisonment.
Minister Montt explained that the
presentation of the report of the Dis
