The influenza does not seem to
abate very much. There are few
cases that have taken a pneumonia
form in other parts of the town and
some deaths have occurred. The hearse
driver says "deaths are less frequent
than in other years when there was
no prevailing disease" The disease is
very unpleasant because it seems to
give the patient but little rest as it is
calling upon him in some direction al

There are many interesting facts to
be gathered from the recent census of
1890, the facts are drawn out from
comparison with the census of 1880.
Only one State in the union has de-
creased in population, viz: Nevada,
in 1880 the census placed Nevada's
at 62,266; 1890, 1851.
Next to this decrease comes our own,
Vermont, with gain of only 1876 in
The largest per cent of
gain has been in the west, Idaho 2,610
in 1880, in 1890, 84,335; Montana,
80, 1859 in 1880, now has 1872, 1859; North
Dakota has jumped from $4,000 to
1872, 719; South Dakota from S,26S to
1913, 8OS; Washington from 75,1l6 to
349 $780, Wyoming from 20,789 to Co.
705. The state nearest to Vermont in
population is South Dakota, Vermont
being about 1000 in the lead. The
largest given population is New York
State, 1897 1858 The smallest, Neva-
la, 45,761. New Hampshire has gain
ed from 346, 1871 to $3.50. The total

Further CHILEAN Correspondence
Sent to Congress.
WASHINGTON, D. C.-The following is the
presidents message transmitting the addi-
tiOnal Gillian correspondence to congress:
To the Senate and House of Representatives:
I transmit herewith additional correspond
ence between this government and the gov
eminent of Chill, consisting of the note of
Mr.. Montt, Gillian minister at this capital,
to Mr.. Blaine, dated January o. reply of
Mr.. Blaine's thereto January p, and DIS
patch from Mr.. Egans our minister at San
dago, transmitting the response OF Mr.. Pc
reira, Gillian minister of foreign affairs, to
the note of Mr.. Blaine of January 2, which
was received by me on the 26th instant.
The note of Mr.. Mont to Mr.. Blaine, though
dated January q, was not delivered at the
state department until after II O'Clock meri-
dian OF the 18th, and was not translated and
its receipt notified to me until late in the
afternoon of that day. The response OF Mr.
Peleira to our note of the I'D, withdraws
with acceptable expressions of regret the Of
fensiye note of Mr.. Malta of the 18th; and
also the request for the recall of Egan.
The treatment OF the incident OF the as
sault upon the sailors of the Baltimore, is so
conciliatory and friendly that am OF the
opinion that there are good prospects that
the difference coming out of that serious
affair can now be adjusted upon terms salts
factory to TINS. government by the usual
method and without special power from con-
gress. This turn in affairs is very gratifying
to me, as am sure il will be to congress and
our people. The general support of the
efforts of the executive to enforce the Just
right of the nation in this matter, has given
and patriotism of our people. Should It be
necessary, I will again communicate with
congress upon the subject.

EorrnuIating a Who.

WAsHseToS, D. c., January 2s.-Mr.
Breekinridge, of Kentucky, has offered a sig
nifcant amendment to the new code of rules.
It Is a provision attached TO the Holman rule
permitting riders on legislation on appropri-
alton bills when IN the interest of retrench-
ment. If enacted il would enable complete
tariff bill TO be appended to an appropriation
bill under consideration.
The members Of the ways and means com
mittee who are IN favor of attacking the Nc
Kinley tariff act by separate bills, were afraid
it indicated purp ose to take the revision of
the tariff out of their hands, and propose a
general tariff bill, like the Mills bill OF the
Fiftieth congress.
Mr.. Breckenridge said the resolution did
not contemplate any movement against the
chairman of the ways and means committee.
He said he wanted to keep any single tariff
bill or any general tariff bill from being
pocketed in the senate, and if the house sent the
senate but single shots at the tariff law, which
he did not favor, he wanted to put the rules
in such shape that the senate could be COM
PEELED to act upon them, and not be per
mitted to pocket them in committee.

kansas SUGAR Works.

WAsHISeToS, D. c., January 27.-Numer-
Gus kilograms have been received by Kansas
congressman from Judge Ansel Clark and
other citizens of Sterling, protesting against
the removal Of the government experimental
sugar station from Sterling to Medicine
Lodge. It seems the station was to be moved
this week, and the people of Sterling are
greatly excited over il.
Senators Perkins and PETER called upon Sec.
rotary Rusk and learned that the department
had fully decided to move the station, the
secretary and Chief Chemist Wiley having
come to the conclusion several months ago
that experiments in Kansas sugar could be
conducted more satisfactorily by having the
station conducted at Medicine Lodge. The
soil IN the vicinity Is believed to be better
adapted to sorghum and frosts not so likely.
After hearing the protests of Perkins and
PETER, Secretary Rusk decided TO withdraw
the order for the present, and give Chief
Chemist Wiley time TO inquire into the mattel
further. If experiments can be conducted
Just a. satisfactorily at Sterling, Secretary
Rusk viii not move the station.

AImost Satlsfactory,

WAsENerON, D. C., January 2s.-This gov
eminent has received long message from
Minister Egan, conveying an offer on the
part Of the Gillian government for the settle
ment of all difficulties with the United States.
This message confirms in every particular
the statements made in the Associated Press
dispatch from Santiago, which was in effect
that Chill agreed to withdraw the offensive
notes sent out by Senior Malta; to withdraw
the request for the recall of Minister Egan,
and to submit the Baltimore affair to the
arbitration of some neutral nation, or submit
the matter to the decision of the United
States supreme court.
Minister Egan states those propositions at
greater length than the press dispatch, but
the exact additions cannot now be ascer-
tanned. There is reason to believe, however,
that the Gillian government not only offers
to withdraw the offensive note, but in addi-
ton, offers to apologize for it. 1t also agrees
TO the position taken by the United States in
regard to the right of asylum and safe con-
duct of refugees.
Minister Egan's dispatch was submitted to
the cabinet. The entire question was dis
cussed, and it is understood that the differ
ence of opinion developed as to the proprlety
of accepting the offer without modification,
50 far as it related to the submission of the
question of Chili's liability for the attack on
the sailors of the Baltimore to the arbitration
of a neutral nation or to the decision of the
6upreme court

wAszHoroS, D. C., January 2s.-The Chill
ian situation Is vastly improved. The situa-
ton is now bright, and what prospect there
was for war, it is understood, is now dis
PEELED.
The first message received by the president
from Egan was not in all respects satisfac-
tory; it was lacking in fullness and there
were many things in it requiring additional
calculation. Another and later dispatch now
has been received, and its contents are such
as leave nothing for congress to do with re-
gard to the presidents message. 1t not only
confirms what has been said in the Associated
Press dispatches, but goes further and Is
couched in most friendly terms The charge
of hostile feeling on the part of Chill toward
the United States Is utterly denied In effect
the dispatch received says the charge that the
Chilians entertain a feeling of enmity to
ward the United States and to its flag and
uniform is utterly false. The dispatch says
that in order to show the friendly feeling en-
tertained by Chilians for the United States.
and as evidence of their desire to do all that
is possible they are willing to leave the affair
to the United States supreme court.

SANTIAGO, CHILI, January 27.-The Gillian
government has sent reply to the ultimatum
of the United States The reply is, in effect,
as follows:
Chilli agrees TO withdraw the offensive note
sent by Senior Malta to all the Gillian minis
tens abroad and acknowledges that its lssu-
ance was due to an error of judgment.
Chill also withdraws its request for the
withdrawal of United States Minister Egan.
In addition to this the Gillian government
IN its answer proposes that the affair OF the
attack on the Baltimore's sailors in Valpa-
raiso be submitted to the arbitration of some
neutral nation.
If this proposition is not acceptable to the
United States government the Gillian gov
eminent suggests that the matter be submit
ted TO the supreme court of the United States.

81. PEIERsBURG, January 2S.-Thousands
of peasants from the famine stricken districts
have started to Siberia, in the forlorn hope
of lettering their condition. On Saturday
last l 400 emigrants who had had the city of
Iobolsk As their objective point, arrived at
I1coman, hundred and twenty miles from
that city. Most of them were too i'll to pl O.
coed further. They were ali destitute. Their
number has been constantly added to until
now there are Il, 600 persons in the town and
its vicinity, absolutely destitute and helpless,
and whom it is entirely impossible for the
residents of the place to help. Their only
shelter is sheds OF light boards, which do not
save them at all from horrors of the Siberian
winter.
They try to keep warm by budding to
gether IN groups, and thus disease generates
and spreads with lightning rapidity, which,
almost without exception, results fatally. So
numerous have the deaths become, that there
Is no pretense at holding funerals. The
weather IS SO intensely cold that the bodies
freeze stih shortly after death.
Amid all this deep, bitter misery, the ac-
ton Of the priests of the Greek church stands
out in vivid contrast to the humanity which
should be shown by men of their calling.
They fatty refuse to ofiiciate at the side of
the dying or perform funeral rites over the
dead unless paid by the wretched people,
many of whom have not a single kopec-

This is q melancholy comment On the fore
sight Of those authorities who devoted Them
selves last fall to arguments that a greet ad-
vance In quotations was at hand. The move
ment In our silver market may be accepted
as significant not only financially, but polit-
ieally, for producers of silver are uniformly
the best posted men In this country on the
plans of the congressional coinage commit
tees London agents bought enough silver
on the decline to rally the price fractionally
but acted with their usual cautious conserya-
tism The plain truth about the worlds sill
yer is, that while our country is flooding the
market by its over production, India is learn
ing to buy silver only for its occasional bal
ance of exchange, and no European govern
ment buys for coinage purposes, except on a
gharD decline.

a year, he is on the highway to fortune.
ElDorado Republican: Dean & Rob

yield was twenty-five bushels per acre,
which, while above the average crop,
