ANIMosITY EVIDENT.

The evidences Of the existence OF ami.
mostly towards our sailors in the minds Of
the sailors of the Chilean navy and OF the
populace of Valparaiso are so abundant
and various as TO leave no doubt IN the
mind of any one who will examine the
papers submitted. IL manifested itself IN
threatening and insulting gestures towards
our men as they passed the Chilean men,
of-war IN their boats and in the derisiye
and abusive epithets with when theY
greeted everv appearance OF an American
sailor on the evening Of the not; Captaln
Schley reports that boats from the Chiiean
war-ships several times went out OK tnelr
course to cross the bows of his boats,
compelling them to back water. He COM
planned of the discourtesy and 1t was cor
reeted.
THE ESMIrY GENERAL.
Tba. this feeling was shared by men OF
higher rank is shown by an incident re-
lated by Surgeon Stitt. of the Baltimore.
After the battle of Placilla he, with other
medical officers of the war-vessels In the
har Dor, was giving voluntary assistance to
the wounded in the hospitals. The son OF
o Chilean army officer of high rank was
under his care, and. when the father dis
covered il, ne few into passion and SAID
he would rather have his son die than nave
Americans touch him and at once % nad
him removed from the ward. Ids
feeling is not we'll concealed in the
dispatches of the Foreign Office. and
had quite open expression in the disre-
spectful treatment of the American I.sga-
ton. The Chilean boatmen IL the bay re-

WAsuIyGToN. u. c.. January 25.-The
message sent to Congress to-day by the
President transmitting the correspondence
in regard 10 the Chilean difficulty IS as fol-
lows;
To he Senate and House Of Representatives
In nv annual message, delivered TO Con-
Dress at the beginning OF the present ses-
s;on after a brief statement of the facts
then in the possession Of this Government
touching the assault IN the streets OF val
paraiso. Chile, upon the sailors OF the
United States steamship Baltimore on the
evening Of the 10th of October last,
said:
This Government is now awaiting the
result of an investigation which has been
conducted by the Criminal Court of Val
paraiso. II ia reported unofficially that
the investigation is about completed, and
IL Is expected that the result will soon be
communicated TO this Government, to-
gsther with some adequate and satsfac-
tory response TO the note by which the at
teption OF Chile was called 10 this incl
dent. If these Just expectations should
be disappointed or further needless delay
intervene, / will. by o special message.
bring tins matter again TO the attention or
Congress for such action as may be neces-
sary."
TIE TIsiE FOR ACTION.
In NV opinion the time has now come
when should lay before the Congress and
the country the correspondence be-
tween this Government and the Gov
ernnent of Chile from the time Of
the breaking-out of the revolution against
Balmaceda. together with all other facts IN
the possession of the Executive Depart
ment relating TO tins matter. The diplo-
matte correspondence is herewith trans
mitted, together with some correspondence
between the naval officers for the time in
command in Chilean waters and the Secre-
tary OF the Navy. and also, the evidence
taken at tho Mare Island navy-yerd since
the arrival Of the Baltimore at San Fran
cisco. do not deem IL necessary in this
communication 10 attempt any full analysis
of tine correspondence or Of the evidence.
A brief restatement of the international
questions involved and Of the reasons why
fhe responses OF the Chilean Government
are unsatisfactory is all that deem neces-
safy.

THE INCIDENTS OF THE AFFAIR

arc brleny as 1OlOWs:
On the 10th of October last Captain
Schley, commanding the United States
Steamer Baltimore, gave shore-leaye to
one hundred aud seventeen petty officers
and sailors OF his vessel. These men left
the ship about 1880 p. III. No incident Of
violence occurred; none of our men were
arrested: no complaint was lodged against
them; nor did any collision or outbreak
occur until about o'clock Y. Nj. Captain
Schley states that he was himself on shore
and about the streets of the city until
$50 y. Nj. t: that he met very many OF his
men who were upon leave; that they were
sober and were conducting themselves
with propriety, saluting Chilean and other
officers as they met them. Other officers
OF the ship and Captain jenkins, OF the
merchant ship keweenaw, eorrohorate
Captain Schley a. TO the general sobriety
ters of Charity Of the hospital to which
our wounded men were taken. when in
ouired of, stated that they were sober
when received. II the situation had been
otherwise we must believe that the Chilean
police authorities would have made ar
rests.
ORIGIN OF THE DIFFICULTY.
About @ P. NJ. the assault began, and 1t
il renarkable that the investigation by
the Judge of Crimes, though 80 protracted,
does not enable him to give any more sat-
isfactory account OF its origin than Is
found In the statement that it be-
can between drunken sailors. Repeated
" in the correspondence 1t u asserted that
n was impossible to learn the precise
ea,ase OF tho riot. The Minister Of For
eicn A6airs (llatta) IN his telegram 70 Mr..

In our note Of October 2sd last. which
appears in the correspondence, after re-
ceiving the report of the board OF officers
appointed by Captain Schley TO investi-
gate the affair, the Chilean Government
was advised of the aspect which 1t had
then assumed. and called upon for any
facts in its possession that might tend to
modify the unfavorable impressions which
our report had created. 1t is very clear
from the correspondence that before the
receipt of this note the examination was
regarded by police authorities as practi-
cally closed. 1t was. however, reopened
and protracted through period OF nearly
three months. We might Justly have COM
planned of this unreasonable delay. but IN
view Of the fact that the Government OF
Chile was still provisional, aud with dis
position to be forbearing and hope
ful of friendly termination. have
awaited the report. which has but recently
been made.
