CABINET TALKS IT OVER.
Secretary Tracy Communicates With

WASHINGTON, Jun. 27-This govern
ment has received long message from
Minister Egan. conveying an offer on the
part Of the Gillian government for the
settlement Of all existing difficulties with
the United States. This dispatch confirms
the statement made in the Associated
Press dispatch from Santiago, which was In
effect that Chill had agreed 10 withdraw
the offensive note sent by Senor Malta; 10
Withdraw it's recall Of Minister Egan and
to submit the Ba timore affair to the ar
bitration of some neutral nation, or to the
decision of the United States supreme
court
Mr. Egan states these propositions at
greater length than the press dispatch,
but the exact additions cannot now be as-
certained. There Is reason to believe.
however that the Chilian government not
only offers to withdraw the offensive note,
but also offers to apologize for 1t. 1t also
agrees to the positions taken by the United
States in regard to the right Of asylum
and the safe conduct Of refugees
Mr. Egan's dispatch was submitted TO
the cabinet at its meeting The entire
question was discussed and II Is under
stood that difference Of opinion was de-
veloped as TO the propriety Of accepting
the offer without modification 20 far as II
related to the submission Of the question
of Chili's liability for the attack on the
Baltmore's sailors to the arbitration OF q
neutral nation or to the decision OF the su-
preme court. without reaching decision
the meeting adjourned
The president will doubtless communi-
cate Mr.. Egan's dispatch to congress but
will probably not do so for several days

Alarms Disappointed.
Those who were predicting war are
sorrly disappointed. The suggestion Of the
Chilian government OF willingness to
entrust the adjustment of their case TO the
judicial department Of the United States
"a regarded as an unexpected mark of
confidence In the disposition of the United
States to determine the controversy with
impartial justice. The further suggestion
of an arbitration through neutral powers
is another good evidence on the part Of
Chill that she is In earnest In her desire to
close up tho controversy in a satisfactory
wav. 49, .,.
The sudden change Of the situation will
obyiate any warlike legislation by the for.
eigu committee of congress, and the only
thing under the circumstances left for ths
committee to do will he to make a report
approving the manner ia which the nego
tiations have heen conducted
The promptness of Chill in withdrawing
the request for the recall of Minister Egan
does not meet with the appreciation OF n
good many Democrats and some Republ
cans who have not entertained q high
opinion of hissntecedents and course. II
was rather expected that after Chilli had
complied with our demands she would
hand Minister Egan his passports. The
fact that she has recalled her objection TO
the presence of Mr. Egan completes the
acquiescence in all the points claimed by
the president and Sc retsry Blaine.
