Associated Press Euterpris >.

New YORK. Jan. 28.-It was worthy Of
note that the dispatches to the Associated
Press from its special correspondent at San
tiagO, Chile, in the last few days have an-
ticipated all other intelligence from that
capital Thus on Saturday night last the
Associated Press dispatch gave the first con
elusive statement that the ultimatum had
been sent to Chile. On Sunday night the
Associated Press dispatch gave the first in
timatiOn that Chile would promptly reply to
Mr.. Blaine's note, and on Monday night the
Associated Press correspondent cabled a
synopsis of Chile's reply. No other news
association had this news until it was in
print in the Associated Press papers. The
United States Government itself received its
first intimation Of the tenor Of Chile's re-
ply from the Associated Press dispatch. The
Associated Press universally recognized
as the medium for reaching the American
public, and when news Of prime Importance
is to be had it secures this first of all.

alleged sympathy for Chile From South
American Governments.
LONDON, Jan. 2S.-A Times dispatch
from Santiago dc Chile says Chile had ex-
pressed her willingness to have either Spain
or Brazil act as a mediator in her differ
ences with the United States, but that pub
lie opinion was in favor Of submitting the
question 10 the Supreme Court of the
United States
MESSAGES OF SYMPATHY.
The correspondent further says the
Chilean Government is receiving mes
sages Of sympathy from all parts of South
America and the United States. and adds ::
The American residents in Santiago pub
licly demand cancelng the eXequatur of Nc
CreeTy, the Consul of the United States at
Valparaiso. Reports from the United
States received at Santiago declare that
President Harrison has decided to recall
Egan, the American Minister.
AN UNFoUNDED STATEMENT.
Several English papers to-day print an
alleged dispatch from Washington to the
DalZiel Agency, in which it is asserted that
President Harrison yesterday informed the
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
that the answer Of Chile to the ultmatum
sent TO her on the 2lSt inst. was received
before his message was sent to Congress,
owing to the fact that it was not trans
lated into English until after the message
was delivered to Congress. Basing its com
ments upon this assertion. the ST. James
Gazette this afternoon publishes an article
in which 1t says, If tile story is true, presi-
dent Harrison is disgraced and has made
himself ridiculous.
The Times and Telegraph have sarcastic
articles on President Harrison's disclaimer
Of official knowledge Of Chile's backdown
prior to the issuance OF the ultimatum. The
Times concludes: Perhaps the President
has more explanations to offer. They seem
at present very much needed"
The Times Santiago special says: There
is nothing official from Washington. Every
thing Is quiet.
The Standard, in an editorial, says Senior
Pereira, the Chilean Minister Of Foreign
Affairs, cannot be suspected of any desire
TO make President Harrison look foolish,
but the circumstances make uD for the ab-
sence Of design. We are not quite sure that
the judgment Of the managers of his party
will sincerely echo President HarrisOn's re-
mark, that the turn Of affairs between the
two countries is very gratifying.

CONCERNING THE PROPOSED MASON
IC TkNPLE.

Once upon a time this large and pros
porous city boosted of Masonic Tenn
pie where the brethren Of that ancient
and worthy order could meet and con-
duct the rites OF Masonry in a manner
commensurate with the dignity and
gravity Of that respectable and numer-
Gus brotherhood Circumstances over
which they had no control caused this
abiding place 10 pass into other hands.
That was several years ago. Since then
the brethren have been knocked about
from pillar to post, so TO speak, meeting
first in one place, then another, and atall
times in such temporary and unsatisfac-
tory quarters that it has been an up hill
job ever since to do justice TO the beau
tiful and subtle work OF Masonry. This
annoyance has so wrought upon the
brethren that they have al last been
spurred up 70 the worthy task Of doing
what they ought TO have done long ago,
viz: inaugurated energetic measures TO
erect a slightly temple Of their own, an
abiding place which wouId not only be
a source Of joy 10 the Masonic bodies Of
this city, but a credit to the town itself.
The practical initial step in this
movement takes place tomorrow night.
An urgent appeal to all the Masons Of
Ohio county TO be present and partici-
pate is made by the committee. The
programme, already published in the
REGISTER, is attractive and appropriate.
Some Of the most prominent Masons in
the State will dwell with the brethren
on the occasion.
Do no, absent yourselves with
out just cause. Be there in force,
and "show your faith by your
works" No good Mason can withhold
his assistance, let il be uAch or little.
The ground is bought and the plans are
ready TO 20 ahead. All that now re-
mains is the necessary subscription to
the stock 10 construct the ediice.
Sound, practical men are in charge of
the undertaking, so it is bound TO be a
success if the members of the several
Masonic bodies do half their duty.

The smootz Murder Case.

Spscial Telegram to tie Register.
CHARLEsTowN, w. WA, May lS.--The
important case at this term Of the Court,
and one exciting intense interest in the
county, is the trial of Harry +. Smootz,
who is charged with the murder Of Miss
Susie G. Terrell, in Shepherdstown, on
the 21st Of last January, an account oil
which appeared in the REGISTER. The case
is set to be called on Monday, May 23d, at
which time il will be determined whether
his trial is to take, place at this term of
court The people of Shepherdstown are
demanding a speedy trial of the murderer,
and there is a strong feeling against
Smootz throughout the county, as most
people believe his crime 10 be a
deliberate, cold-blooded murder. But
while this feeling exists, tits still the 5udg-
ment of the people that the law should take
its course and the prisoner have fair
trial. Smootz has been conilned in the jail
here for some months, during which time
he has been reticent, and under the advice
OF his counsel, has not talked about the
case. He spends most Of his time in read
ing. His brothers and sisters have visited
him frequently and have shown devotion
so strong as TO gain a great deal OF sym
pathv for their distress over their brothers
crime. SmootZ is Of stolid nature,
rnorose and incline to be revengeful. II
will be remembered that he shot and in
stautlv killed Miss Ferret on one OF the
public streets of Snepherdstown because
She had discarded his love and refused TO
marry him.
