Chilean navy fully available for war pur-
| poses. All Of them received ill-usage dur
| ing the late war and very little since has
been done TO repair them. II is said that
| the machinery Of all Of them is in bad con-
! ditiOn. Even the ETrazuriZ, which is a new
ship and only arrived in December, is said
! to have her boilers burnt out and that 1t
! will be necessary to send her TO Europe for
| repairs.
SEARCH LIGHT INCIDENT
! The night she arrived she threw her
/ seaTCh-light all over the bay in a supposed
/ effort to fud the United States cruiser \ Ork-
! town. Finally the light was thrown across
! the fOrecaStle Of the American GunbQat and
some Of the rays penetrated through the
/ ports 10 the berth deck where the watch

! we're aroused by the light and a number of

/ Star-Spangied Banner until the illumina-
| tiOn ceased.
Minister Egan was presented by tie re-
fugees who were sheltered ia the legation
with handsome gold card bearing a suit

A DISTURBING ELEMENT.
The HeTald's Santiago cablegram says:
The runner that the United States would in
! SiSt on q salute has caused a revival in some
/ measure of the excitement here. Such
/ demand would certainly be resented by the
/ ChleanS. The belief has been generally
! accepted that the reply of Chile to the ulti-
/ m3tum NET with the approval Cf the United
/ States, and 10 demand a salute in the pres
eut state OF this country, which IS full Of adj
herentS OF the late President BA'maceda,
/ Who are only awaiting a chance TO raise an
other revolution, would make lt appear that
( the United States was anxious To ministe 7
/ to the wishes Of these people, who are every
/ day en0eay0riug TO spread dlScOrd 1t IS
! the earnest desire Of President MOntt 10
/ have quiet reign. but the fact remains that
! L. political parties aIe not in good shape
/ ana there is disturbing element.
THE EFFECT IN CHILE.

/ ing s short official dispatch from Senior
! Moutt, the Chilean Minister to the United

/ Chamber Of Deputies confirming the uuOfh-
/ cial reports that the crisis between Chile

/ Times dispatch also says the message of
/ President Harrison TO the American Con-
/ gress was read in the l0bbieS. bat neither
/ the American message nor the official dis
/ patch OF Minister MOutt caused much com

THE BRITISH VIEW CHANGING.
The Spectator in the course Of a long re-
view OF the AmeTican-Cuilean question, says
The tendency here IS to blame the United
States for pressing Chile Overmuch. Amer
lea, It adds, Is one Of the greatest nations in
the world; Chile Is one Of the weas est, and
| the demand, therefore, on the part Of the
Union, which is cOuched in firm language,
is sure 20 look harsh and unfair but admit
/ ting everything in regard to harshne,s, the
fact remains the United 5 ates originally
suffered substantial injury to which no
powerful civilized State could be expected
10 submit. Ia conclusion, the Spectator
says the incident killed Biaine's policy Of
harmony.
