American Economist: "The Ameri-
can manufacturer needs certain kinds of
foreign wool to mix with the American
wools." This is an argument frequently
advanced by the Performers" But did
they act on this theory in the wool bill
passed by the house Of representatives?
No; that bill puts all kinds of wool on
the free list. Another example of con-
sistency.

OUR LITTLE TROUBLE
No Change in the Gillian Sit
uatiOn To-Day.
THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE,
1t Will Surely be Transmitted to Congress
Next Monday.

The Delay Not Due to Amy Overtures for
Peace--Reported That England Has Of
fered to Act as Mediator in the DinB-
cuIty--A Prominent Bay State Man Says
This Country Would Have More Trouble
in Whipping Chill Than is Anticipated
Walker and Gherardi Not Ordered
to Valparaiso.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-There was a
long conference at the White House in
the afternoon in regard to the Gillian
message in which the President and
Secretaries Blaine, Tracy and Elkins en-
gagged. John w. Foster was also called
into consultation. The conference lasted
over two honrs.
Both the President and the Secretary
of State realize that the document which
is to accompany the Gillian correspond =
ence is likely to be of more Importance
than any communication that has gone
from the Executive Mansion to the legis-
lative branch of the Government in the
last quarter of Il century. Although
the message is complete in outline and
in general substance it will not leave the
Presidents hands until every word and
phrase has been carefully reviewed with
an eve to its possible effect not only upon
the pending controversy, but also upon
the general foreign policy Of the United
States as subjects to Interpretation in the
future.
1t is now determined that the message
will go in on Monday.
The message itself will contain about
), 900 words, and the correspondence at
tached with the testimony taken by
Judge Advocated General Remey will
swell the volume of the papers to 1855, 900
words.
The correspondence is already in type
and will be given in full to the press on
Monday.
The delay until Monday is not due to
any change in the situation or to any
new developments leading to a hope of
peaceful overtures from the government
at Santiago.
The time has passed when the peaceful
assurances of Minister Montt can serve
to defer action on the part of the United
States. No communication will have
any weight with the Administration ex-
ccpt one which shall come directly from
Santiago, and which shall convey the
unqualified assurance of the government
there that an apology will be rendered
and reparation given in accordance with
| the Presidents demand. Nothing of this
sort has yet arrived, and there is no in
dication that any such thing is contem-
plated
The conditions of the controversy stand
rs they are. Chilli must either apologize
or fight. The delay in sending in the
message and the rumors of arbitration
which were afloat last night have served
| O create n quieter feeling in certain cir
cles, but as a matter of fact, we are nc
nearer u peaceful solution of the CHILEAN
question than we were n week ago, and
the Presidents utterances will not be
modified by anything that has occurred
since n message was first determined
| upon.

What a Prominent Massachusetts Man

What a Prominent Massachusetts Man
Thinks of the Matter.
BosToN, Jan. 21.-In an interview had
to-day with Robert Burnett, appointment
member of the Democratic State Com
mittee who spent two years in Chilli, he
said:
Twenty thousand soldiers landing
on the CHILEAN coast would amount to
comparatively nothing 1t would
take at least $4,000 soldiers to produce
any effect whatever on Chilli. United
States warships can lombard Valparaiso
but that is all they can do.
The Chilians are very rash. There is
no race in the world so hot headed, and
it is very difficult to imagine what will
become of this affair. 1 feel quite sure
that if war was declar red, it would be d
long time before we secured victory
have no doubt that it would come in
time, but not before a good many men
were killed and this country put to
great expense"

OFFERS TO MEDIATE.
A Report That England Wants to Settle
the Gillian EmbrogliO.

A Report That England Wants to Settle
the Gillian EmbrOgliO.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-A close friend
of the President says that England has
offered to act as mediator between the
United States and Chilli in order to pre-
vent war
For the past two months Sir Julian
Pauncefote has been loading the cables
to London with information regarding
the temper of the American people, the
preparations for war which are being
made in the United States, ETC., which
has been transmitted to British Minister
Kennedy at Santiago, and by him given
to President Montt.
The latter has received more informa-
ton about the United States from Eng
fish sources than he has from his Minis
ter here.
1t is expected that the Presidents mes
sage will be surprise, inasmuch as he
will inform Congress of the efforts of
England to act as a mediator, and will
ask that these good offices be accepted
so far as this country is concerned.
This explains the frequent confer
ences which Sir Julian Pauncefote has
had with Secretary Blaine and Minister
Montt.
The Presidents message is awaited
with great interest, especially since these
new facts have leaked out.

The Mortified Young Man and tho Elias
tic with q Motto.
Tragedy and comedy are very close
together sometimes, says the New York
World, and the same swell which near
ly ended the life of one person upset a
group of dozen merry bathers and
tossed them topsy turvy toward the
beach. Ono of the number, q New
Yorker, was thrown headlong into a
bevy of girls, and he has distinct i'm
preston of a shapely limb grazing his
waist just as the breaker rolled over.
That occurs scores of times daily, and
the young fellow recovered himself and
went on bathing. A quarter of an hour
later he met lady he knew and the
pair went upon the beach. Suddenly
his companion started, and murmuring
some sort of an excuse left him.
The bather was very much discon.
certed, and, casting his eyes around to
discover the cause, his gaze fell upon
something dangling from his belt. he
grasped it, and was astonished to find
in his hand a wide yellow garter OF
generous length, one of those senti.

THE CHINESE CAPITAL.
Interesting Information About tho
City Of Picking.
1t Comprises Four Cities with q POpuln-
ton OF q Million and q Half-Its
Poorly Built Structures-The
Great Walls.

Picking, the capital Of the Chinese
empire and of the province of Chilli on
the Tunghui river, has a population
estimated at one million i've hundred
thousand, says the New York Recorder
1t stands on an extensive sandy plain,
and consists of Kin-Ching, the prohib-
tied city, containing only the palaces of
the emperor and the dwellings, of his
immediate retainers; Hwang Ching, the
imperial city, with large number Of
court officials; Nui-Ching, the Tartar
city, comprising twelve square miles,
and Watching, the Chinese city, with
fifteen square miles of area. The Tar
tar city is surrounded by wall sixty
feet high and fifty feet thick, the Chi
nese city by one thirty feet high and
twenty-five feet thick. They are built
of stone and brick and filed with earth.
The suburbs include an area of twenty
five miles.
The prohibited city, two miles in cir
conference, is entered by four gates,
each surmounted by a tower. The
buildings are superior to any others in
the empire. The meridian gate leads
to the imperial buildings, and is re-
served for the emperor solely. Five
marble bridges spanning little stream
lead to q marble paved court and the
gate of extensive peace, at which the
emperor receives the homage of the
courtiers on great state days. Ascend
ing the stairway, the tranquil palace OF
heaven is reached, into which none
can enter without special royal per-
mission. The number of people within
the prohibited city is small, most being
MantchooS.
The imperial city, surrounding the
prohibited city, has wall twenty feet
high. pierced by four gates, through
which no one can enter save by special
permission. It contains the tablets 0!
tho deceased empcrors and emprcsses
and TIC alturs of the gods. There are
also the Russian college, military stores
and Kiug-snan, the artificial mountain
with each of its five submits crowned
by Il pavilion.
Tho Tartar city surrounds the impe
rial city and contains the principal gov
crnment offices and the hall of science
erected in 1850. Near by are tho Rus
sian Church of the Assumption and tho
temple where his majesty and princess
worship their ancestors on the first day
of every month. The city is il
control of the general of the nine
gates, near whose headquarters i.
the high tower in which are the i'm
mcnse drum and bell that proclaim the
hour of midnight. Not far away is the
white pagoda with its obelisk erected
by Kublai Khan in the thirteenth cen
tlry, about which upon one hundred
and eight pillars lamps burn continu

The Chinese city is the most popu
lous, but it's structures are poorly
built. The houses are of brick, on,
story high, with roofs of tiles. 1t con
tains the affairs to Heaven, to winter, t.
agriculture, and the pool dedicated t.
the spirits of the waters, where hi

courts against General Banks to recover
the amount of the deficit which was al
legged in regard to the accounts of his
Office when he held the position of United
States Marshal several years ago. There
will be no criminal tinge whatever to the
litigation. 1t WILL in all probability, be
an action of contract in which the Gov

The nick of time to stop the course Ol
bladder and kidney complaints is when
the organs concerned exhibit tendenc
to grow inactive. The healthful impulse
toward activity that they receive from
Hostetters stomach Bitters rescues them
from impending danger, and averts such
dangerous maladies as Bright's disease
and diabetes. Sluggishness OF the kidneys
increases a liability to chronic rheuma-
tism, gOut and dropsy, and since the
blood Is filtered by these organs in its
passage through them the operation of
the Bitters serves a doubly happy purpose.
The medicine acts without exciting, like
