CHILL COOLING DOWN.

Light Is not more antagonistic tC
darkness than are tho statements Of
, the ChiIians and those of the Balti'
more's crew concerning that unfortu.
nate affair In the streets of Valparaiso
The Chilians swear that there was no
violence offered to the sailors of the
Baltimore ashore at that port; the
sailors now giving testimony at Val.
lejo, California, positively swear to
the stabbing by the Valparaiso police
and the shooting of the murdered
bostswain. Between these conflicting
statements the Administration at
Washington will have to make up
their minds. 1t is not very probable
that Johnson, who swears that he
was holding the wounded boatswain
In his arms at the time
he was fired upon, was mistaken.
The naval commission at Vallejo can
not set aside such positive testimony,
supported as 1t is by all the general
facts in the case. Chilli will have to
do something more than deny the
charges in the face Of such damaging
testimony. That she Is coming to
realization of thu necessity of the case
is quite apparent, if any dependence
can be placed upon the latest dis
patches from that country. The spe-
cial cable of the New York Herald,
from Valparaiso, states that instruc-
tions have been sent to the Chill
minister at Washington to make an
ample and unqualified apology to the
United States for the unfortunate and
deplorable attack upon the Balti-
more's sailors last October. Ii this
report be confirmed it will give an
entirely new aspect to the ques-
ton, and pave the way for
an amicsble adjustment of the whole
business. The admins
tratlon at Washing ton has always
held that the government under
which the difficulty occurred was
only a provisional one, and that in
all justice the regular governments
when established should have time
to seat itself and get its bearings be-
fore any just opinion concerning its
intentions could be formed. In the
light of present advices this view of
the government was emlnently wise
and broad, and the conservative view
taken of this exasperating case by
the foreign office has had q good
effect at home and abroad.
