The.Correspondence.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The Chilean cor
respondence presented TO Congress "
President Harrison to-day is extremely
voluminous and would fill one hundred or
more columns of an average newspaper.
IL covers period beginning on the Ia
Of last August, and much of it, notc>Iy
the earlier portions, has been anticipated
by the publication in the daily press of
the official documents. "A full summary
is made unnecessary by the fact that the
Presidents message gives briefly and
clearly all of the vital points essential TO
full and complete understanding of the
entire controversy.
The correspondence deals first with the
revolution in Chile last August. which re-
suited in the overthrow of the Balmaceda
faction and the ultimate establishment of
the present government under Jorge
Montt.
The most interesting feature in
connection with this period is
the detailed reference TO the hostile
movement of the new Chilean government
against Egan, growing chiefly out of the
question of the Fright of asylum" to
political refugees.
In note dated Oct. 9th. Egan gives
Blaine an account of an interview with
the Chilean ministers, in which the latter
fully recognized that the protection af
forded to refugees by the American lega
ton had been legitimately EXTENDED and
disclaims on the part of his govern
ment any intention TO show any disrespect
TO the United States legation.
The vital issue of the entire situation is
found in what is now we'll known as the
Baltimore incident" and the offensive
note OF Malta IN reply TO Egan's letter.
The Malta Note.
The essential statements in the Malta
note were as follows: Having read the
report of the secretary of the navy aud the
message of the President Of the United
States, think proper 20 inform you that
the statement which both report and
message are based are erroneous and en-
tirely incorrect.

the Convention Meets on Time and Gets

CONVENTION HALL, MINNEAPOLIs,
June Z. - At just 1890 Chairman
Clarkson called the convention to order.
Mr.. Clarkson announced that the ses-
sion would be opened with prayer by the
Rev. DR.. Brush, chancellor of the Uni
versity of South Dakota. After the
prayer there was murmur of CONVERSE
ton, which was hushed quickly as M.
II. DeYoung, of California, stepped fNr-
ward and read the call for the conven-
ton. Chairman Clarkson arose and
announced that he was instructed
by the committee to present to the con-
vention for its temporary chairman, j.
Sloat Fassett, of New York.
Fassett was elected temporary chair
man by reclamation.
There was round of applause at this
announcement led by the New Workers,
and Mr.. Fassett unescorted left his seat
and started for the platform. The
Blaine sentiment, in which Mr..
Fassett finds his inspiration in this con-
vention, came out in the dramatic pre-
sentation of the Maine mans name and
the subordination of the name of Har-
rison. As he named the leaders of the
party he paused after Lincoln, Grant,
Garfield and others for the round of ap-
plause that he knew would follow, but
when he came to Harrison and Blaine,
he brought the two names out in one
breath SO that applause of the Harrison
men would seem to mingle with the ap-
plause of tie Blaine men in recognition
of the ex-secretary of state. Mr..
Fassett C npleted his speech at
1903 O'Clock ind took the gavel in his
hand before the convention realized that
he was through.
Mr.. Clarkson then presented the List
of temporary officers, which was adopt
ed.
Committees were then appointed on
permanent organization, rules, order OF
business and credentials.
A motion to adjourn for the day was
put and carried, and those not members
of standing committees slowly filed out
of the house, and the committeeman ad-
journed to their respective committee
rooms to proceed to business.
The committee on platform was or
ganized by the selection of Ex-Governor
Foraker as chairman.
