The treatment of the incident of the as

This turn in affairs is very gratifying to

To Blaine Washin gton:
1 have to-day received the following re-
ply to my note of 22d INST:
"SIr-The undersigned has had the honor
to receive your Excellency's communica-
tion dated the 22d inst, received in this de-
partment on the 23d. and the only duly
authenticated copies of the instructions
which the honorable Secretary of State at
Washington has sent to your Exceilency
by cable under dates of the 21st inst. and
the 23d of October. 1891.

the 10th of October. and taking into con-
sideration the testimony of the officers and
crew of the vessel, tho Baltimore. and of
others who witnessed the event. has ar
rived at the conclusion:
"First-That, with regard to that assault,
there has been no change W whatever made IN
the character given to It by the first report
of the event. to wit: That il was an attack
upon the uniform of the navy of the United
States which had its origin and motive In q
feeling of hostility towards that govern
ment and not in any act of the individual
sailors belonging to it.
''Second-That the public authorities of
Valparaiso evidently did not do their duty
in protecting those sailors. and that a part
of the police and some Chilian soldiers and
sailors rendered themselves guilty of un-
provoked assaults on the sailors of the
United States before and after the latter
were arrested, and that he believes that
Riggin was killed by the police or the sol.
diers: and,
"Third-That he is conseau uentIy COM
pelled TO carry the question back 10 the
state In which it was placed by the note OF
the Hon. Mr.. Wharton, dated Oct. % and to
ask for suitable satisfaction and some ade-
quate reparation for the injury done the
government of the United States.
The Honorable Secretary of State, Mr..
Blaine. reports that the government OF
Chilli has not, from the very first duly ap-
preciated the gravity of the question
raised. and that il had attributed to il no
other Importance than that of an ordinary
quarrel between sailors. holding that no

Lading and Regulate Demurrsge Charges.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2S-The National
Board of Trade to-day devoted some time
to the discussion of the question of uni
form bill of ladIng. A resolution was
finally adopted requesting Congress to
amend the Interstate law by es-
tablishing uniform bill of lading for In
terstate commerce involving the liability
of carriers as established by common and
statutory law.
The next matter taken mp was q resolu-
tion approved by the Board of Trade of
Chicago. which. while recognizing the
justice of the charge imposed by the rail-
road companies for the use of their cars
when not promptly unloaded. says that IL
is also due to the customers that when the
goods are not promptly delivered that the
railroad should be responsible to their con-
signee for delay. 1t was provided that
Congress examine this question with the
view Of making such amendments to the
interstate-cOmmerce act as will properly
protect the rights of the business COM
munity. After debate the resolution,
slightly modified. was adopted.
A resolution in favor of the enactment
by Congress of hat is popularity known as
the tonnage bill. or some other similar
measure. was then taken up and discussed
at length.
A resolution was offered by Mr. Laren, OF
Milwaukee, which recites that while the
evils resulting from excessive trading in
agricultural and other products of the
country is recognized, and any measures
calculated to restrict such trading within
legitimate limits is favored which would
not seriously interfere with the necessary
facilities for handling the immense crops
of the country. yet any legislation is depre-
Gated which lays tax upon or interferes
in any way with the freedom of commercial
transactions IL such products, whether fol
immediate OF future delivery. The resolu-
ton further states that the adoption oi
what is known as the Butterworth bill
would cause irreparable injury to the busi-
ness and agriculturalin interests of the coun-
