COMBINED AGAINST CHILL.
Peru and the Argentine Republic
Preparing for War.

Preparing for War.
PANAMA, Columbia. Nov. 10.-Advlces
received here from Chilli say that war is
imminent between Peru and the Ar
gentine republic OH one side and Chill
on the other. A dispatch from Valpa-
raiSO says:
Peru is we'll armed, and her forces
have received 100000 Mannlicher rifles,
with other formidable machines of war.
A CHILEAN gentleman, just from Peru,
states that the approaching war affords
the staple of conversation, and pre-
tense of friendship is only to gain time.
In the Argentine republic vigorous
recruiting of both natives and foreign
ers is being prosecuted, and the gov
eminent is with feverish haste arming
the troops.
"There is no longer a doubt of a
secret compact against Chilli between
the two republics, and they are only
awaiting a causus belli to throw one
army into the Tarpaca and another
upon the southern frontier, while strong
skirmishing parties will harass this
country from the Cordilleras. The
Gillian government has tardily opened
its eyes to the threatened invasion and
has ordered several steamers to be pre-
pared for immediate Incorporation into
the navy. The Captain Pratt has been
cabled to proceed to Valparaiso without
a moments delay"
