The BALTIMORE ARRIVES.


WASHINGTON, Jan. g. There was a com
motion in the navy department by the re-
ceipt Of a dispatch announcing the arrival
OF the United States steamer Baltimore at
San Francisco, and in a few minutes the
wires We're hot between Washington and
san Francisco with messages TO the navy
officers at Mare Island navy yard instruct
ing them not to permit the officers or crew
Of the Baltimore ashore. A telegram was
also sent to Judge Advocate Remey, now
on his way TO San Francisco, instrticting
him to take full depositions Of the officers
and sailors Of the Baltimore. The Baltimore
had arrived IN San Francisco day in ad-
vance Of the expected time, hence the hur-
ried instructions.
Permitting the sailors to 90 ashore and
fall into the hands Of the newspaper men
who are on the alert to interview them and
obtain their version Of the Valparaiso street
quarrel would be, it is claimed, very indis-
Greet, as that would doubtless create or in
tensify the popular feeling now existing
among the masses against Chill. After de-
positions are taken under oath without their
having known the popular feeling they win
be permitted TO land. Otherwise, their de-
positions would not be considered as trust
worthy and deliberate as the circumstances
OF the case in its present aspect requires.
Shortly after the big warship had anchored
in the stream representative Of the United
Press boarded her and saw Captain Schley,
her commander, who stated that the reports
telegraphed to this country regarding the
attack ona number of his men in the harbor
OF Valparaiso was substantially correct and
that there was little II anything 70 add to
them. He stated that one very significant
feature Of the assault on the Baltimores S men
was that every one OF them was stabbed in
the back, and shat soldiers, police and sailors
took part in the affair. Not one of the Bal
timores men was armed.
The captain said that half dozen Of his
men, If they had been provided with
weapons, could have stood Off the 5000
Chilians, as they were a lot Of towards.
Further than this Captain Schley refused to
talk

HILLS ALLEGED DARING SCHEME.
To Have New york's Presidential Electors
chosen by the LeRlslnfnrn.


PITTsBuRG, Jan. G.-The Press prints the
following; The inside history of the meet
ing between United States Senator NJ. S.
Quay and Colonel w. w. Dudley in this city
on Sunday last was related to Press re-
porter yesterday by gentleman who came
from New York to attend the conference,
which related 10 national politics. Not
withstanding the endeavors Of the leading
coterie Of Democrats IN the Empire state to
keep the matter quiet, II was made known
to Messrs Quay and Dudley on Sunday that
scheme has been promulgated and win be
carried through within six weeks which
viii jeopardize any possible success OF the
Republican party carrying the state of New
York IN the presidential election Of next
year.
The plan Of the Democrats IS this: Act
ing under the powers conferred by the con.
stitution Of the United States and their
state laws, Hin, with the consent and assist.
anoe OF the Democratic Legislature, has de-
termined that the next presidential electors
shall be chosen by the Legislature and not
by the popular vote OF tho people II is a
daring and audacious plan, but il is con.
stitutional and can be accomplished.
Another feature Of this proposed Hill
scheme Is thnt the enormous sums Of money
spent ia the usual state campaign for the
election Of the electors by popular vote can
be reserved for distribution during the car.
yass in other doubtful states
When 1t is remembered that both houses
Of the Legislature in New York are TO be
controlled by the Democrats, and that the
Htrictest harmony prevails between the
majority and Hill the feasibility Of the
plan IN question Is at once apparent. Both
quay and Dudley admitted that 1t IS among
the most serious matter Of political fact and
question that has stared at them in any
preliminary presidential campaign since the
1ilden-Hayes struggle Of 1876. They are
non-plussed about il.
With the exception Of West Virginia,
which Is usually classed under the head OF
southern states list, they lQuay, Dudley
and other prominent leaders and members
of the national committed agree that there
is practically no hope of carrying single
southern state next year for the Republic

One Authority Says It's Myth Another
Says It's Reality.
WAsHIgcroN, Jan. 6.-First Assistant
Postmaster General Whitfield has Just re.
ceived two letters from responsible parties,
relating 10 advice received al the postofiice
department some time ago that the Confed-
crate flag had been flying over the postofflce
at Baird Tex. Il viii be remembered that
General Whitfield wrote to the postmaster
az Baird requesting information ia regard
TO the matter, but up to now no reply has
been received The letters received ten
conflicting stories. One of the writers states
that the flag flies over tho center Of the
business block in which the postofioe ia
located, and on holidays and occasions Of
festivities the Confederate flag can ba seen
standing out prominently from few small
Mexican flags anda small United States flag.
The other writer in his letter says that there
is absolutely no truth in the report and that
II Is one OF the many schemes Of Confeder-
ate veterans to harrass the postmaster, an
old Union soldier AS the case stands it is
a difficult matter 70 get at the truth Of the
report, but General Whitfield viii have a
thorough examination made and ascertain
the exact situation There is a possibility
that the obnoxious emblem was put upon
the building by parties who have business
establishments in the same block, but in
that event il is quite likely that the post
Office authorities viii have the postofice at
Baird moved to some other location.

The claim made in behalf Of the relator
is that he ought to have been declared
elected by the general assembly, because.
as appears by the returns Of the presiding
officer he received a majority Of all the
votes cast for the governor. And as the
assembly did not do so, the court ought to
declare him elected or 70 regard him as
having been elected BY such apparent ma
jority. This claim admits that If the gem
eral assembly had declared the relator
elected upon the returns the declaration
would give him only prima facie title to
the Office, and that if inducted into il upon
such declaration, he might be ousted there
from upon its being shown that he did not,
in fact, have the real majority of the votes
cast for governor. If the court should de-
clare the relator elected upon, the same re-
turns it should give him no stronger title to
the Office than a declaration by the general
assembly.
IF the relator shall hereafter, by an
amendment Of the present information, or
by a new one, allege that he received ma
jority Of all the votes lawfully cast for gov
ernor on the fourth day Of November 1890,
and it shall also appear from the facts
therein stated that the general assembly is
without the power to make any declaration
in respect to the election for governor, a
case would be presented of which the su.
perior court might take jurisdiction. The
superior court-is advised that the informa-
tion is insufficient, and to sustain the de.
murrer."
Judge Carpenter agrees with the decision
but dissents from some parts Of the opinion.
