must be made to the people of the United
States. The presidents message is Clear and
comprehensive. 1t is foregone conclusion
that 10th branches of congress will uphold
this demand for the protection of the Ameri-
can flag from insult No other course is CON
sistent with American patriotism.
Times: The case is left with congress-
without even suggestion from the presi-
dent If there be intelligent patriotism i'll
congress to justify the popular expression TO
which the majority of the lower house is
due there will be prompt suggestion 10 the
executive of change from methods of vain
glory to those of craftsmanship.
The Tribune says: There can be no doubt
that if Chilli does not speedily come 10 its
senses it will be brought TO them through the
stern agency of war"
Herald: THE document is a clear and
pointed recital OF wrongs and insults on the
part OF Chill, of patience and forbearance on
the part of the United States. The message
will be generally approved.
PITTSBURG, Pa, Jan. 25.-Post: 1.-THE peO-
pie should Know all ABOUT the policy and
conduct OF Minister Egau. and how far it Is
responsible for the feeling of the Chiian
people, before any declaration of war is
made
Commercial Gazette: THE best we conld
get out of fight with Chill would be the
worst of it. There would be little glory or
satisfaction in spanking the half-civilized in
FAINT Still there is limit TO forbearance.
even in the treatment of the mixed natives OF
the sister continent
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Jan 25.-Republic: Mr.
Harrison tries to produce the impression that
Chill mas refused to express regret for the
acts OF the Valparaiso mob whereas the cor
respondence shows that Dom Pedro Montt
has conveyed TO this government the assur-
ance OF the friendly feelings of Chilli. There
is scandal behind this business. Meantime.
1t is clear thattbe whole business, as ii stands,
is the most treacherous, the most pusillani-
nous, the meanest and the most cowardy
that any American administration ever en-
gagged in
SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 25-ChronicIe: 'lf
Chilli will accede TO our just demands as con-
tanned III the ultimatum, well ana good but
II she refuses, diplomatic intercourse is 10 be
suspended and war must follow, although
we may and shall regretiGs necessity. Option
is now with Chilli
The Examiner violently attacks President
Harriscn'S management of the CHILEAN con-
troversy. 1t says the American people
would be insane to go to war on such a show
ing. That message dispoSes of Mr.. Harrison.
He proves himself to be little man not only
lncapaDle or dealing largely with ques
lions so grave as the nations peace, but also
incapable of fairness aud truthtelling when
truth will benefit the nation with which
the United States is in controversy
NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-World: Our govern
ment is strong; Chilts is weak. Magnanim
1ty. forbearance and great patience viii be
becoming to US, and Will cost US nothing in
the respect of enlightened mankind. 1t is
clearly our duty to ourselves, to our weak
tagonlSt and to civilization 10 exhaust every
peaceful method of maintaining our right
and dignity before resorting TO the brutality
OF war.
The Herald: Had Mr.. Harrison shown
more calmneSs and patience, more states
manshlp and patriotism, more desire for
peace. the controversy might have been
brought to an early settlement, satisfactory
and honorable to both nations. What Chilli
will do in the face of the demands with
which she may feel it humiliating to comply
remains TO be seen. We think Mr.. Harrison

be remedied.
The Tribune: President Harrison's mes
sage is destined to rank with the declaration
of policy which made Monroe's name famous
Chill must accept responsibility for that
wanton attack, aud make amends for it.
Mail and Express: The message will stir
the blood OF the American people as il has
not been stirred for quarter of century Ii
is absolutely proved that this is an instance
OF wanton aggression, and nothing in the
past three months has been said or done by
the Gillian government to disavow or miti-
gate the insult offered to our flag.
The Telegram says: 1t means apology or
war. A prelude of war. unless Chill offers q
prompt and ample apology, is what it is
tuken to be.
BOSTON, Jan. 25.-Traveller: 1t, is safe to
say there will be no war However anxious
the president aud one or two of his cabinet
are TO chastise Chill, the others favor pacific
measures and resort 10 diplomacy, or fail
ing in that, to submit the matter to arbitTa-
ton.
Transcript: THE Malta note, which
contained reflections OH the faith of the
president of the United states, is an episode
much more difficult of settlement than the
Baltimore affair. 1t would be q novel and
not very diguified position for the United
States 10 take TO submit the good faith of the
president TO arbitration"
The Post says: 1T is not question now
OF sustaining Mr.. Harrison, MIR. Blaine or
Mr.. Egan, but of sustaining the government
that is. the people. Congress will not
shlrk the respenSi bility which the president
has placed upon it,

be united today upon this matter, they will be
neither of Que party nor another; they will be
Americans supporting their country. their
government and their president all Of whom
are worthy of their support.
Press: We fought England at heavy odds
to protect OR seamen Oh our own decks and
under our own flag. Less cannot be done TO-
day. A-
Times: In the face of the direct issue Of
war as proclaimed by the president that ISSUE
becomes paramount, but whether there shall
be war or peace. the people will have their
reckoning with Ministers Egan and the polit-
ical power that clothed him with honoTs he
could not appreciate and with duties he
could not perform.
Record: From beginning to end President
Harrison message is a studied. vindictive
but by no means successful attempt TO put
the ChilianS IN the wrong aud TO arouse q
war spirit among the American people,
LONDON, Jan. 26.-All the daily papers Of
this city publish long editorials Commenting
upon the message sent by President Harrison
10 the American congress, some advising
Chill to apologize, others characterziug the
message as election buster. and more appeal
ing for an extension of the spirit of COM
promise and Cancellation
NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 25.-1imes-Democrat:
The presidents message on the Gillian
question is timely. proper and patriotic. In
case like this. where The national honor is
at issue there can be no sectional or party
lines, and the president can count conf
IDENTITY OH the support of the South. which is
as broadly patriotic in this matter as any part
or the Union.
MENeH1s, Tenn, Jan, a5.-Appeal-Aya-
lanche: II seems to us that the president
has committed the country TO hostile dem
onstration, and that it is impossible for con-
gress 10 do otherwise than sustain him.
DENVER, Col, Jan. 25.-Republican: I'm
mediate action should be taken, and Chilli and
other countries be shown that the United
States is perfectly able TO protect her citizens
both on sea and in foreign lands
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.: President Harri-
sons message, while moderate in tone. is
firm and decided in character II a proper
apology is not received from Chilli there is a
strong probability that declaration of war
will quickly follow.
