Associated Press Dispatches
CHICAGO, Jan. 22.-The Inter Ocean
will prins in the morning Washington
special, asserting that acrisis in Chilean
matters is rapidly approaching. Yes
terday it says an ultimatum was sent to
the Chilean government through Min
lister Egan. The dispatch was signed
by Secrel ary Blaine. 1t was Of a per-
emptory character, directing Egan to
demand categorically of the Chilean
government an immediate answer to
the request already made. The purpose
of it is to inform the Chilean govern
ment that the United States government
must have an answer at once to its
demand for reparation and an apology.
The presidents message is to be semitic
congress Monday, whatever may be the
answer from Egan. An immense mass
of correspondence will be sent with the
message, but it will not be necessary
for the people TO read it to arrive at an
understanding of the matter. That can
be learned from President Harrison's
message, which will be about three
newspaper columns in length and will
compactly state the American case.
The president will not delay six months
nor six weeks more for the Chileans.
There will be no more delay. Unless
he and the cabinet are much mistaken.
the events of the next few hours will
determine whether or not there will be
peace or war.

3.s:Gs Assures Them That They Will
Be Let Down Easy.
New YORK, Jan. o. The Herald's
Santiago correspondent says: The
Chilean government was much pleased
by cable dispatch received from the
United States this morning, which,
am informed, stated that the terms re-
quired for a settlement of the Baltimore
affair would require indemnity with an
apology, but that the tenor OF
the latter would 81 be such az
would in no vice humiliate Chile.
A cabinet meeting was at once held, but
the president was absent from the capi.
tai Judging from expressions from the
cabinet ministers, judge the dispatch
was satisfactory to them. a&
The question of the strained relations
between the United States and Chile
came up in the chamber of deputies
yesterday, and Sefior Bsrros Luco, re-
plying for the government, said the
questions pending were assuming an
eminently pacific tone, and there was
absolutely no foundation for alarming
rumors.
l learn that cable dispatch has been
received from SefIor Montt, Chilean
minister at Washington. He stated
that Secretary of State Blaine requests
the Chilean government to regard the
contents of the dispatch as confidential
for the present. l am, however, given
to understand that the tenor OF the dis
patch is decidedly peaceful.
Private letters here say revolution is
imminent in Ecuador, based on the as-
sumption Of dictatorial powers by the

A REMARKABLE STORY.
An Old Lady Makes Charges Against

Governor Pattison.
SIOUX CRY, Iowa, Jan. pa remark
able story is told by an old lady who
lives in a woodshed in the rear of a
prominent lawyers residence in this
city. She says she is daughter OF Gen
eral Patterson, of Mexican war fame,
and as the wife OF Colonel Graham fol-
lowed his regiment to Mexico, where she
and the daughter of General Taylor car
ried the flag over the walls at Chapulte-
pee when it had fallen from the hands of
Major, Vandorn. She says her father
was very rich when he died, and charges
Governor Pattison of Pennsylvania
with keeping her from her inheritance.
She came here some wears ago from New
Orleans, bringing with her about $l5,-
600, which she invested in property. 1t
is all gone, she declaring that she was
swindled out of it by parties here. She
has lived in filthy hovel long while,
depending on the county for scant
supply of coal. The fact of her being
kept in such poverty causes indignation
among the people, ana she will doubtless
abe cared for hereafter. A large amount
of iewelry and silver plate she had when
she came here, is gone, but she still
keeps a number of beautiful dresses.
Her story is generally believed, though
the connection with Pennsylvania gov
ernor is not clear.

CHILE WANTS TIME.
she Asks for Six Weeks More to Make
Up Her Mind.


Up Her Mind.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The Star has
this: According to the best informa-
ton the foundation for the change in
opinion which rulnor experienced, from
war to peace, is that Chile suggested
to this country that about six
weeks more time should be allowed
her within which to determine whether
or not she should make an apology. No
promise of reparation is made, but it is
broadly asserted that Chile will do what
she thinks is right after having ex-
hausted her inquiries. 1t is said Blaine
regarded this sufficient to warrant the
delay suggested, but the president did
not agree.
If, as reported, the Chilean govern
ment.is about to k throu- h Minister
Montt for the recall of Minister Egan,
the request is not likely to be granted.
President Harrison is entirely satisfied
with Egan's course.
1t was reported in Washington tonight
that the United States government had
recalled Minister Egan. The report Gre
ated considerable excitement, but it was
soon learned that the story was without
foundation.
No dispatches were received today at
either the state or the navy department.
in regard to the condition of affairs in
Chile. At meeting of the cabinet
today the Chilean question was dis
cussed. 1t is impossible at this writing
to obtain any official information on the
subject, but it is generally understood
that the cabinet has practically decided
to submit the matter to congress early
next week, in order that con-
gress, as well as the country at
large. might know the exact status
of the controversy. While such course
would not in itself indicate the termina-
tion of diplomatic negotiations for the
settlement of the matter in dispute, 1T
would give the public, through congress,
an opportunity to determine which
country was responsible for the pres
ont unsetf led state of affairs

Democrat Laredo special says: A raid
upon the Iona Prieto ranch, where
Cara was located the first part of the
week, failed. He had been there, but
the only trace found of him was an
old camp fire. There is no doubt
that Cara has spies who keep him con-
stantly informed of the whereabouts OF
the troops. 1t begins to look as if they
would never effect his capture while
acting under the present plans OF OPP
erations against him. They probably
will prevent him connecting his forces
on American soil, but further
than this they are unable to accomplish
an, thing. From parties who have COM
munication with Garza's family, it is
learned that 80 long as the cold weather
continues no open movement OF the rev.

Clerks Must Fay Their Deputies.

SAN Francisco. Jan. %. The supreme
court has decided that clerks must pay
their deputies salaries, which have,
since the passage of the amendment
to the county government act in
1887, been drawn from the county treas
ury. The supreme court holds that the
amendment providing for Ethe
payment of deputies from the
treasures is unconstitutional. The
decision was rendered in the case
of Dougherty against Austin, treasurer
OF Marion county, one of the twenty
