WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-In transmit
ting the latest correspondence with
Chile to the two houses of congress the
president accompanies it with a short
message, in the course of which he says:
.'The response Of Mr.. Periera to our
note of the 21st withdraws, with ac-
ceptable expressions of regret, the Of
fensive note of Mr.. Malta of the 12th
ult., and also the request for the recall
of Mr.. Egan. The treatment of the in
cident Of the assault upon the sailors of
the Baltimore is SO conciliatory and
friendly that am of opinion that there
10 good prospect that the difference
growing out of that serious affair can
now be adjusted on terms satisfactory to
this government by the usual methods,
and without special powers from con-
gress. This turn in the affair is very
gratifying to me, as am sure it will be
to the congress and to our people,"

Mr.. Trumbull said there was doubtless
strong feeling against the American
sailors, but that the Baltimore affair was
merely the result of drunken row.
Speaking of Minister Egan Mr.. Trum-
bull said:
! desire to say that however my humble
opinion may differ from that of your distin-
guished president In regard to Mr.. Egan, am
only to glad TO pay my tribute of respect to
him as u man who, on every occasion, inter-
life and mitigate the suffering of the perse-
euted. Mr.. Egan honored mt with his friend
ship and his confidence, and | shall re very
grateful to him for his offer to me of bis own
house as an asylum from the tyrant's persesu-
lion and also for the great kind ness 10 mem
bers OF my family and to my friends. But his
many acts of kintinese and humanity cannot
blind me to the fact that he was the friend and
partisan of Balmaceda, of that tyrant who

THE AalENpE HONORABLE.
Minister Pereira's Reply TO the Pres
ident's Iltimntum.


On Jan. % Secretary Blaine received
from Minister Egan the following dis
patch:
SANTIAGO, Jan %, 189a-To Blafne,
Washington. Il have today received
the following reply to my note of the
22d inst:
SIR-The undersigned has had the
honor to receive your excellenGy's COM
munieation dated 22a inst. received in
this department tie 231, and The duly
authenticated copies Of the instructions
which the honorable secretary of state
OF Washington has sent TO your excel
lency by cable under dates of the elst
inst. and the SD of October, 1891.
In the instructions Of the 21St inst the
honorable secretary Of the state informs
your excellency that his e1eelleneY, Mr..
Harrison, after carefully examining all
that has been submitted to him by the
government of Chile, with respect TO the
event which occurred in Valparaiso on
the evening of October 10, and taking
into consideration the testimony of the
officers and crew of the vessel Baltimore,
and of others who witnessed the event,
has arrived at the following conclusions:
President Harrison's Conclusions.
First-That with regard to that as
Eault there has been no change what
ever made in the character given to it
by the first report of the event, to wit:
That it was an attack upon the uniform
of the navy of the United States, which
had its origin and motive in feeling of
hostility towards that government, 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
q part of the police and some Chilean
soldiers and sailors rendered themselves
guilty of unprovoked assaults on the
sailors of the United States before and

Vanderbilt's Victory.

New York, Jan. 20.-Judge Addison
Brown, in the United States district
court, handed down an opinion in favor
Of Frederick w. Vanderbilt, in the suit
brought by the collector of customs
against him to recover customs duties
on the yacht Conqueror, as an imported
article. Judge Brown says that Mr..
Vanderbilt is entitled to possession of
the yacht, with costs and damages of
this suit. There is no law by which ships
or vessels can be held liable for customs
duties: Judge Brown holds that the
special provision exempting pleasure
yachts from the payment Of tonnage
tax applies in the case of the Conoueror.

BLAINE AND MoNTT.
The Secretary Replies Vigorously to
the Chilean Minister.

The correspondence opens with
lengthy communication from Pedro
Montt, the Chilean minister at Wash
ington, to Secretary Blaine. under date
of Jan. %. In this communication Min
lister Montt asserts in respectful language
that the Chilean government has no data
authorizing it to think the Valparaiso
quarrel was due to hostility to the
United States, and that his government
wanted to get at the truth of the matter.
The criminal trial at Valparaiso was
proceeding as rapidly as the custom of
the country permitted, Senior Montt says,
and he believes it will be clearly proven
shat the affair was nothing worse than a
drunken row, which he and his govern
ment "deeply deplores." The Chilean
minister defends the Malta note by say
ing the secretary should not take cog
njgance of is since it is not addressed to
this government.
To this letter of Senor Malta Secre-
tary Blaine replies at length under date
of Jan. ~. The following extracts are
~w9Syen:
''You are right In saying that I con-
eidered the proceedings of the govern
ment OF Chile in making the judicial in
festigation of the unhappy affair at Val
paraiso entirely praiseworthy. But you
: AsA1t tiAep ao val ~ Sutu
of November | complained of the length
Of the judicial proceedings, and from
time to time renewed the complaint.
You replied that the Spanish law was
slow in its processes but exact in its con-
eiufions; and with your statements |
had to be content, though impatient for
q final judgment.
Your offer of arbitration was never
unconditional and exact. Had it been
/ would have insisted on your reducing
it to writing, for it would have been my
duty to lay 1t before the president for
consideration.
1.-THE Malta note was highly dis
courteous to the president and the secre-
tary Of the navy, imputing to them un-
truth and insincerity. Such language
does not admit Of conditional or con-
tingent apology, which you offered. 1t
could be apologized for only by frank
Withdrawal
Undoubtedly Chile has the right to
urge Mr.. Egan's recall, provided she
assigns reason. You are too well
skilled in diplomatic usage to be re-
minded that when nation is pleased to
declare that when minister is persona
non grata, she is expected to assign
reason therefor. We have twice had
occasion to ask Great Britain TO recall
her minister, and in each case we gave
reason why the minister had ceased to
be useful"

Praise for His Kindness and Den,In.
citation for His Partisanship.


New 4oRK, Jan. 29.-In response to
an invitation from the Reform club. of
New York, Hon. Ricardo l.. Trumbull
addressed that body last night on Chill
ean affairs at their club house. The
lecture room was crowded with mem.
bers of the club and their invited guests,
great interest in the address of Mr..
Trumbull having been aroused during
the past few days by statements that he
would make a bitter attack on Mr..
Egan.
Mr.. Trumbull, in his speech, said the
Itata was seized and held without due
process of law, and that she was subse-
quently surrendered ON misrepresenta-
tions made to the congressionalists. He
said that Admiral Brown had, inadysrt-

Wanted to Marry "Her Sweetheart. >

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Jan. 30. = Public
opinion is divided as to the sanity of
Miss Mitchell, whomurdered Miss Freda
Ward. Your correspondent learns that
Alice Mitchell had asked Freda to marry
her on three occasions, and at last Freda
consented. A day for the wedding was
fixed and Alice sent her an engagement
ring. The plan of Alice was to elope to
81. Louis. The ring was returned by
Fredas sister and Alice then swore that
rather than live without her she would
kill her. Alice insists that she wished
to marry her sweetheart, whom she
loved devotedly."

Muncy Bank Depositors Excited,.

rector stated that receiver would be
appointed inside of the next three days
to wind up the affairs of the defunct
Muncy National bank. The depositors
are very anxious about their deposits, as
the new developments at Tuesdays
hearing led them TO believe that they
would not get their deposits in full and
they are almost wild enough to mob the
bank officers if they don't get their
money soon. tssSS]

why the Figures Were Wrong.

From the Boston Globe.
Prof. Truman Henry Stafford Of Williams Col
lege is said to be one of the most remarkable
lightning calculators now living. One day a
gentleman who had heard of his powers and
wished to make test said to him:

was born August Is, 1852, at 3 o'clock in the
afternoon; this is June 20. 1888, and it is just 8
O'Clock. Now, can you tell mo my age in Sec

The professor frowned, bent his head and be-
gan to walk rapidly up and down, twisting his
mustache and clasping and unclasping his hands
in a nervous way. After a moment so he re-
turned the answer, which somewhere in
the billions.
The gentleman produced paper containing
the problem worked out and said with supe-
rior smile:
well, professor, I'll give you the credit for
great genius. but you're several thousands out. "
The professor stretched out mis- hand for the
paper, and running over the calculation said
contemptuously: "Humph, you've left out the
