SANTIAGO SATISFIED.
Chilians Look Better in q Good
Frame of Mind

SnIl1unS LOOK beIteP III q OOOu
Frame of Mind.
SANTIAGO DE CHILL, Jan. 30.-Late
on Thursday last very brief synopsis
of President Harrison's second message
to the American congress relative to
Chili's position in the dispute
with the United States was received
here, and in a short time the news
spread through the city that there was
no further fear of war, the tenor of the
brief Geographic reports showing that
the United States was willing to accept
Chili'S apology. President Harrison's
first message caused great excitement
here, where its warllke utteranceS wer e
thoroughly discussed in the cafes and
other places of public resort, but the
second message caused revulsion of
feeling, and the people generally be-
came much calmer, and expressions of
satisfaction were heard that the dispute
had been amicably settled through di-
plOmatic channels.
For the first time in four months the
Gillian press is publishing respectful
United States minister, and other
American officials who have heretofore
been the objects of many vituperative
attacks, aud it is thought the CHILEAN
newspapers will he nceforth be more
circumspect in their utterance
regarding America and Americans.
Congress adjourned today. Several
members of the CHILEAN cabinet have
stated that the reason that the recall of
Mr.. Egan, the United States minister,
was requested last week was that
he had notified Secretary Blaine
that the CHILEAN government had
issued safe conduct for refugees
and had afterwards withdrawn it. The
newspapers here publish a dispatch
from Mr.. Blaine to Mr.. Egan, received
today, i'll which the United States secre-
tary of state says that Mr.. Egan had
never informed him that safe conduct
had been issued for the refugees. Senior
Pereira, Chllian minister of foreign
affairs, has thanked Mr.. EgaD warmly
for having given him copy of the dis
patch mentioned.
Mr.. Egan received tonight from Mr.
Blaine dispatch the import of which
is similar to that of the message sent to
congress by President Harrison on
Thursday. In this Mr.. Blaine says that
the president is satisfied with
the withdrawal of Senior Matta's tele-
gram and the request for Mr.. Egan's
recall. and hopes that the affair of the
attack on the Baltimore's men in Val
pa1aiso will be settled amicably. The
contents of this latter dispatch will be
conveyed 10 Minister Pereira by Mr..
Egan Monday next.

to repair them, and it is said that the

REED AND RULES.
Neither Man Nor Measure Get
Much of a Show.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-In the house
today Mr.. Reed, of Maine, asked unani-
nous consent of the house that during
the day members DESTROYS of in
PRODUCING bills might present
them CO to the speaker for ref
erence, as done during the
Fifty-first congress. Mr.. Bland, of Mis-
souri,. objected, sgiving as his reason
that the speaker did not regularly refer
bills during the Fifty-frst congress.
Mr.. Reed hoped that the gentleman did
not mean TO insinuate that the present
speaker would follow the evil example.
Mr.. Walker, of Massachusetts.
thereupon demanded the regular
order, which was the considera-
ton of unfinished business = the
proposed code of rules. The speaker
stated that the rules had not been called
up for the reason that there was a sne-
clal order for O'Clock. But Mr.. Walker
still insisted, and Mr.. Catchings of Miss
issippi, moved to postpone the consider
alton of the rules until Monday.
On this motion, Mr.. Buchanan, of New
jersey, raised the point of mo Quorum
but after some time had been consumed
in taking the vote by tellers. Mr.. Bu-
chanan said that as it was evident that
the party which had two-thirds ma
Jority in the house could not command
a quorum. he would relent, and he with
drew the point.
The motion was therefore declared
carried, but then Mr.. Burrows came to
the front with motion to reconsider,
which Mr.. Springer moved to lay OH the

Popular Election Of Senator's
Favored by Chipman's
Committee.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-The Demo-
cratic caucus which was called for to
night for the purpose of considering the
action to be taken upon the proposed
code OF rules was very poorly
attended. When the appointed hour
Q:3O arrived there was not
dozen members in the hall, and
the new arrivals came in very
slowly. Chairman Holman arrived in
due time, but after glancing over the
large array Of empty seats, did not i'm
mediately call the assemblage to order.
Gradually the members dropped in one
by one. but at no time before o'clock
did their attendance exceed seventy
five. AT that hour Chairman Holman
raped for order. The roll call showed
the attendance of 121 members, more
than a majority Of the caucus, and the
following officers were elected to serve
during the ensuing congress: Mr.. Hol-
man, OF Indiana, chairman; Messrs.
Anderson. of West Virginia, and Robert
son, OF Louisiana, secretaries. Although
there was
No Organized Opposition
to these officers, there was a good deal
Vi Speecn-maklng INDUCED IN. A cast
iron rule was adhered to that no cards
should be sent in to the members DUR
ing the progress of the caucus. This
step has very seldom been taken, and
this evening there was no occasion for
it., as the proceedings were de-
void of interest owing to the
small attendance. The discussion
was confined to consideration of the
proposed rules, especially that which
confers certain powers upon the COM
mlttee on rules. After a few five-min-
ute speeches delivered with perfect
good nature, Speaker Crifp took the floor
Tor twenty-five minutes in support of the
code of rules recommended by the
committee on rules. The greater part
of his time was consumed in answer
ing questions relative to the effect the
rule comforting certain privileges on
the committee on rules would have
upon the transaction Of business by the
house. His remarks were vigorous and
commanded deep attention. After a
great deal Of debate. the rule was ap-
proved by a.vote of so to 6, and, though
some opposition was raised on the
ground that there was no quorum, the
caucus adjourned.

AROUSED TO ACTION.
High Types of Battle Ships Are
Needed.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3O.-Naval Con-
structor Philip Hichborn. United
States navy, was at the Astor house to-
day. He said that there could be no
doubt of the fact that the
recent war scare had aroused
the people of the United States
to the urgent necessity of providing for
the public defense. 1.-THE temper of
congress favors an appropriation to
finish the construction work now under
way and to provide for the building of
two or three more war ships after the
style of the Oregon, Indiana and
Massachusetts. They are the high
est types of the modern battle ship.
They are larger, better armored and
more effective than either the Maine or
New York. They have large coal capaci-
ty, and that is just what the navy wants
There are in the navy now thirteen
monitors. do not believe that more
will be constructed. but it is certain that
congress will provide for overhauling
and fitting them out so as to make them
available, particularly for the defense
of seaports."

would carry it for 10 cents.
Senator Frye said we would be no
worse off than now when there were
100 and odd foreign vessels In our Pa
cific ports to eight American vessels.
MIR. Thompson responded that that
was true, but if there was going to be a
revival of American shipping, the Great
lakes was the place to begin. Its YES
sci Interests were large, and would be
enormous If they could get it to the
ocean during the five winter months
they were now idle. Firms on
the lake had underbid the coast

putable bidders, but solely because of
our treaty with Great Britain. The
Clyde would be nowhere in comparison
with the great lakes in ship-building
with access to the ocean. The tonnage
Of the Detroit river was now 1,500, 900
tons more than the SueZ canal and 3,000,-
600 more than the clearances Of London
and Liverpool. Returning to the
Effect of Waterways
on freight rates, Mr.. Thompson said
when the Erie canal is open the rail-
roads put wheat rates from Chicago to
New York down below the cost of trans
portation, to 81 cents bushel, and
compelled many canal boats to tie up.
The day that winter conditions set in
the railroad rate jumped to ~ cents.
Ex-State Senator George B. Sloan, of
New York, addressed himself to the
resolution of the waterways convention.
urging an appropriation of 500, 600 for a
complete survey from the lakes to the
seaDoard. New York, he said, at a cost
of 81, 000,000a year to its cities. furnished
free transportation through the Erie
canal to the Western States, and it was
fact that within the last two years the
necessary state appropriations had been
barely squeezed through.
Gen. Poe, in charge of the engineer
ing works on the great lakes, said that
he had estimated S3.394.OOO as the cost
of twenty -one-foot channel through
the lakes. The Hay lake channel and
the st. Clair fats, in Improvements
which were now in progress, he re-
garded as simply so much in the direc-
ton of the entire project. TO Mr..
Blanchard Gen. Poe stated that 500, 900
or perhaps 100000 would be needed the
first year if the committee authorized
contracts to be made for the work of
improving the great lakes.

EAU CLAIRE. Wis, Jan. 30.-Eau
Claire boasts of a miracle, and the
Christian Science circle of this city
scores one at last. Oscar F. jackson, a
prominent citizen, pioneer and lead
ing insurance man, has had his eyesight
made whole. He has used spectacIes
for over fifteen years, but has now
thrown them aside, and reads the
finest print as easily as he
did thirty years ago. He was
reading one day how Christian science
lady had her eyesight made whole by
simply believing. Mr.. Jackson said: 81
believe God can restore my eyesight;
God is the light of the world" He ac-
cordingly removed his glasses and read
right along better than he did with
them. He is now enjoying perfect eye
sight. Previous to that he could not
sign his name without using glasses.
The event has created quite stir in
this city, in which the Jackson family is
highly respected.

POPULAR ELECTION.
The House Committee Favors Its
for Senators,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3o.-The house
committee on the election of president,
vice president and congressman by
formal vote today approved the princi-
pie that United States senators should
be elected by the people of the respect
i've states. The question of the details
of an amendment to the constitution to
effect this purpose was referred to a
special meeting to be held Wednesday
of next week.
while the principle that senators
should be elected by the people," said
Chairman Chapman, seems to be very
strong III the house, and large number
of bills have been introduced with that
view, there is difference of opinion as
to whether the constitutional amend
ment should leave that method of elect
ing senators optional with the several
states, or should be compulsory on all
of them. The first position seems to be
the most acceptable. Which position
will be adopted by the committee | am
unable to say. but l believe bill will
be reported embodying some plan OH
the subject"
II am in favor of electing senators by
the direct votes of the people," Mr.
Chapman continued. There is great
PoPuldI ueludHu lOr III. nave no
doubt that the election of SEN
ators by popular vote will give
us better class of men in the senate.
l think that examination will show that
the majority of the best men who have
ever been in the senate graduated from
the house of representatives, where
they were put by the votes of the
people and where they acquired
prestige which enabled them to
go to the senate. They became
known in that way and were found out
and selected by the people to be proper
men to trust with legislation. The evils
OF the present system are so great that
they have attracted the attention of the
labor and agricultural organizations of
the country. have no doubt that the
great mass of the people demand re-
form as their only sure protection
against individual and corporate
wealth.

NO SALUTE DEMANDED.

Discretion.

Chilli Is Free to Use Her Own
Discretion.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Specific in
quiries as to the truth of published
statements that this government has
taken the position that Chill must
salute our flag, elicit positive and au-
thOritative denials of most sweeping
character. No demand is made upon
Chilli to salute the flag, and the stories
printed this morning as to alleged pro-
ceedingS in the cabinet meeting Of yes
terday on the whole subject OF Chilian
affairs are pronounced to be absolute
cOnjectureS and inventions. Secretary
Blaine sent cable to Minister Egan
this morning instructing him to
inform the Gillian government
that its its proposition for settle
the two governments made in response
to the ultimatum of the 21St INST, are
satifying to the president of the United
States, as indicating a good prospect
that the controversy can now be adj
justed Oh terms satisfactory to this gov
eminent by the usual diplomatic meth
DDS. The telegram makes no requests
or suggestion of any kind Whatever
for salute by Chill to the American
flag. There was nothing said at yester-
days cabinet meeting on this subject,
and there is no reason to believe that
this government will require such sa-
lutte from Chilli. At present no United
States man-ot-war is in the harbor of
Valparaiso, but the Yorktown within
few days will return to that port,
and her appearance there is looked
forward to with intense inter-
est. The Yorktown is commanded by
Commander Evans, and it is explained
at the navy department. that naval ETH.
quette does not require a salute to be
fired by men-of-war i'll the harbor to
anything less than an y admiral's
flag, so that it would not be az
act OF discourtesy If the Chill
ian men-of-war, on the return
of the Yorktown to Valparaiso, did not
salute the American flag Oh the York
town. 1t would, however. be regarded
as graceful act, one showing that the
apology made by Chill was not at the
lannon's mouth, but sincere act,
showing contrition and carrying with
it no ill-will to the flag of
the United States. Such an init
nation has probably been conveyed to
the Gillian government, and the man
Der in which they treat it will doubtless
have much to do with the smooth and
satisfactory conduct of the negotiations
looking to final adjustment of all diff
ferenceS.

COSTLY PRECAUTION.
The Ohio's Owners Must Be Paid

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 30.-The Inter-
national Navigation company has Or
dered Capt. Sargent, commander of the
steamship Ohio, recently impressed by
the United States government, to
hold himself in readiness to re-
sumo. command of his ship.
The import of this order is that the gov
eminent has no immediate use for the
ship, since the Gillian trouble has sub.
sided, and she may be ordered back to
PHILADELPHIA at any moment. An Of
fetal of the company said: 1.-THE gov
eminent took our best boat, and our
terms were specific. By the contract
with us the government must keep the
boat for ninety days, and pay us the
sum of $500 per day for the use of her.

Montt Not Disliked.

WAsHINGToN,J Jan. 3o.-While it is not
altogether improbable that Chill may
change her diplomatic representative
at Washington, it is stated authorita-
lively that this government has taken no
steps whatever looking to that end.
That President Harrison has no feeling
against Minister Montt is shown by
the fact that he has sent him personal
invitation to attend the state dinDer to
be given at the White house next Tues
day in honor Of the dinlomatic CORPS.
