INDIANAPOLIS, Jan 11-Reports of the
Executive Committee in charge of the
movement to have this city chosen as the
place where the next Democratic Conven-
tion shah be held, show that some re-
marSably effective work has been done
in quiet way in the interest of Indian
apolis, and. the members Of the commit
tee are encouraged to believe that if the
Convention is held in the West, Indian-
apolis will be selected as the place. Plans
have been prepared for a convention hall
with a seating capacity of $4,000, with
the most perfect arrangements for con-
vention purposes ever offered in the
country, All parts of the hall are within
easy view and hearing distance of the
stage, and the press and telegraph ar
rangements are everything that could be
desired. More than sufficient money for
the erection of the building has been
raised by subscription, and everything is
in readiness to begin work on it as soon
as the question as to where the conven-
tion shall be held is decided.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA dispatch from
Valparaiso says there is great deal OF
talk about the action of Minister Egau
in escorting the three Balmacedist refu-
gees, Juan and William McKenna and
Jose Carrera from the American Legation
at Santiago to Valparaiso and placing
them on board the U. S.cruiser York
town, but the knowledge that he did so
with the tacit approval of the new adj
ministration has disarmed severe criti-
cism.
The press gives considerable space to
the subject but discusses it in calm
spirit.
While in powise condemning Mr..
Egan for what he has done in the matter;
it asserts that the United States Govern
ment must assume the responsibility if
ITS Minister loses the respect of the pub
lie in escorting such characters as these
refugees, for his doing 50 degrades him
to the level of a policeman
Then, recalling the well established
fact that Mr. Egan had done exactly the
same thing for many prominent Con-
gressionalists in their hour of peril, the
press goes ON to say that there is no
comparison between caring for men like
Pedro Montt, Agustin Edwards and 9TH
ers of their standing who were on the
side OF liberty and order, and protecting
these refugees who are known. outside
OF their career as Balmacedas coadju-
tors, to be men utterly devoid of good
deeds.
This, it adds, is especially the case
with Juan McKenna whom it accuses of
endeavoring to rob an American named
Chase Of silver mine near Iquique, and
OF afterward hiring men to attack him

TASlAQUA Pa, Jan. 11.-Considerable
alarm is felt by the business men of this
place, as well as by the operators of the
West Lehigh Colliery nine owing to a
fire that has been raging for some time
past. 1t has become so strong that it is
not likely that the flames will be sub
dued very soon, there being no water
accessible, and the men are compelled to
fight the fire with picks and shoyels, a
stream being at first turned on to cool
the vein.

PowderIy Before the Committee.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-Mr. Powderly,
general master workman of the Knights
of Labor, appeared before the Pinkerton
investigating committee Friday. He
said he had some personal knowledge OF
cases where violence had been exercised
by the Pinkerton men and had heard OF
other cases from what he considered
goad authority. He read statement
denying the allegations of the Pinker-
tons before the committee.
He went on to say that he had been
investigating the character of the Pink.
erton men and thus far had found eight
of them of doubtful character, despite
the Pinkertous testimony as to the high
character of their employees, One of
them, Webb, was charged with wife
murder. four with burglary, two with
wife beating and one with arson.
Mr.. Powderly continued by showing
that the Pinkertons acted as spies and
obtained admission to labor councils on
false pretenses
