prospect that the controversy can now pe
adjusted upon terms satisfactory. to this
Government by the usual diplomatic
methods.
NO SALUTE REQUIRED.
The telegram makes no request OF sug-
gestion Of any kind whatever for salute
by Chile of the American flag. There was
nothing said az Yesterdays Cabinet meet
ing ON this subject, and .here is no reason
to believe that this Government wiz re-
auire such salute from Chile. IL IS very
possible, however, that Chile may Oh heI
own accord perform this graceful act at
the termination Of the diplomatic adjust
ment of all difficulties which Is now IN
progress.

CLAN OF BRITISH REASON.
LONDON, January 3O.--Ibe Spectator. in
the course of q long review OF the hmeri-
can.Chilean question, says that the ten

for pressing Chile overmuch. America, 1T
adds. is one of t1e greatest nations IN the
world; Chile is one of the weakest. ANY
demand. therefore, on the part OF the
Union which is couched in firm language

uniting everything In regard to the harsh;
ness, the fact remains that the united

PUTTING THEMSELVES IN OUR PLACE.
A. IL hat n
body of English blue jackets were brutally
attacked on the streets of Montevideo
merely because they were Englishmen,
and two or three Of them were killed,
would there have been much difference OF
opinion in England as to whether Uruguay
should be forced to make reparationf
Given these facts. the English people
and the English Government would GER
tainly have refused to discuss whether
their Minister had conducted himself pro-
perly or not, or whether Uruguay had not
q legitimate grievance against England.
In conclusion, the Spectator says that the
incident has killed Mr.. Blaine's policy OF
hegemony.

sort. but the second message caused q
reyulsion of feeling, and the people gen.

MORE RESPECT FOR AMERICA.
For the first time in four months the
Chilean press Is publishing respectful
comments concerning Mr.. Egan, the United
States Minister, and other American
officials. who have heretofore been the
object Of many vituperative attacks, and
it is thought the Chilean newspapers Will
henceforward be more circumspect In
their utterances regarding America and
Americans.
