Return of John L. stoddard.

The steadfast admirers of John L. Stod-
dard will welcome the renewal of the salts
faction which this sterling entertainment
affords. Next week the thirteenth annual
season in this city will open at the Hype-
rion. The initial lecture of the
series, ''Travels in Sunny Spain" will be
given Monday evening next, and will be
repeated on Wednesday evening. Nolec-
tare in Mr.. Stoddard's extensive repertoire
has a more fruitful subject than this
which treats of the land once 30 glorified
by the Moor and later the home of the
Spaniard. The remaining lectures are of
no less interest and value. Far too little
is known as yet of the republic on our
south, with whom our relations are des-
tined in the not distant future to be of
colossal importance. To hear of this coun-
try through Mr.. Stoddard's late travels
and by the aid of his original photographs
will be to know it in q way little short Of
the knowledge to be gained by visit
there. Jerusalem and Egypt may each be
depended upon to furnish its quota of at
traction. 1t is gratifying to know that the
extra provision of seats made this year ID
appreciated, and that fine audiences for
both courses may be depended upon. The
lecture of next week will be given both or
Monday and Wednesday evenings A few
] good seats for each course yet remain.

THE GILLIAN TROUBLE.

CablegramE From Com ander Evans
blaine and Mont in Consultation
special Message to Congress.
WASHINGTON, Jan. ia cable message
was received at the navy department to-day
from Commander Evans of the United
States Steamship Yorktown at Valparaiso
and Secretary Tracy said it contained no
information of Importance. 1t Is said at
the navy department that it is not true
that the Miantonomah and Newark have
been ordered to the West Indies. Senior
Montt, CHILEAN minister, had a short in
terview with Secretary Blaine to-day, but
it is understood had nothing to communi-
cate indicating change of policy on part
of Chilli.
In his annual message the president made
two promises, one conditional and the other
absolute. The latter was that he would at
an early date transmit the correspondence;
the former that in case Chill took needless
time in answering he would send special
message. 1t is understood to-day that he
has determined to combine these two and
to send his message simultaneously with
the documents. The expectation is that he
will have the message ready 30 that it can
be submitted to the cabinet at its meeting
on Tuesday next, and it is therefore thought
that the earliest time that it can be sent to
congress will be Tuesday afternoon, or more
probable Wednesday, as it is usual for such
communications to be made to congress as
soon as possible after the opening of the
days session.
