BY VIM. r. Grace, ex-Mayor OF New York;
Inc Chilean question is one very difficult TO
understand from the fact that the business and
social relations Of this country with Chile have
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1892-01-28

been demonstrated that neither Demo-
Gratis or Republicans will let party pre-
dilections warp their judgment as to the
amendments, but intend giving them
trial in practice. Very much silly talk
has been iadulged in by speakers who
have shown great Ignorance Of the sub
ject, but in the main very intelligent
view of the questions involved has been
taken by the ueople.

gentlemen who has represented your country as
minister in Chile In recent years will bear me
out in this statement.
Mr.. Egan himself, up TO the breaking out of
the revolution, was the recipient of every kind
of attention from the Chilean people. Ameri-
can officers have always been extremely popu-
lar in Chile
Grace Co. and Hemenway & Brown, the two
principal American houses in Chile, know that
they have always been well regarded and es-
teemed there. 1t is mistake to suppose that
the American sailors were Alta ked because
they wore the American uniform. Only few
days before similar row occurred between
French and Chilean sailors, which, fortunately,
did not have such serious consequences; and
yet no one claimed that these men were attacked
because they wore a French uniform.
The trouble had its beginning in drunken
row IN the worst quarter OF Valparaiso. This
soon spread and assumed serious proportions.
The authorities did everything In their power
10 quell the disturbance, aud succeeded after
much trouble 1t Is charged, however. that
the police were guilty of great cruelty.

nor has 1t been proven. Some of the police
may have been unnecessarily rough, but In
moment OF such great excitement this is not to
be wondered at. / will not deny that there was
a strong feeling of resentment against the
American sailors because it was felt in Chile
that the officers of the United states navy had
very plainly manifested their sympathy with
the Balmaceda party. But no resentment
could justify an attack on American citizens
everybody in Chile condemned the outrage.
ana nobody can claim that the act of the mob
was the act OF the government Nor has it been
claimed that the public authority. charged with
the peace OF the community. connived at the
attack, or that, having timely notice of the
threatened danger, ii was guilty of such gross
negligence In taking the necessary precautions
as 10 amount to connivance. The question
is one which certainly can be settled

This winter is as remarkable for its free
dom from crimes of the season as for its
immunity from bleak winds, snow, frost

visi6nal government OF Chile, which succeeded
Balmaceda. had not yet been in existence fifteen
days, and il is natural 10 suppose
that, under the circumstances. the organ
lied management Of Chilean affairs would
have been less effective in the performance of
such duties as otherwise would have been
handled with greater force and promptness-as
the counery is proyerbial for the effective and
upright management OF its government in all its
branches
There is no doubt that feeling of antsgon-
ism to the United States government grew up in
Chile during the war between the congress and
the Chilean exeeutive-the people of Chile hav-
ing generally believed that the United states
government, through lack of proper informa-
ton from their representatives in Chile, took
the side of Balmaceda, who was really and prac-
tfcally dictator, although nominally the prop
erly elected president
Whatever the justice or injustice of the &C.
cusations against the United States govern
ment during that epoch may be, IL had its effect
on the minds OF the people, and the poorer or
working class OF the country were naturally
more affected by It than men of more
serious thought and higher instruction;
but IL would be a great mistake TO i'm
agtne for one moment that q general
bad feeling ever existed on the part
OF the people Of Chile toward the people OF the
United States. On the contrary, the Chileans
have always glor1ed in calling themselves "The
Yankees OF South America" and have always
designated the United states as ''The Great Re-
public" both OF which show that they were
anxious TO emulate the people of the United
States and initiate the Yankees, and that they
were proud of the record OF the "Great Repub-
lie"
They have, however, had a feeling that, as
they were the yankees of South America"
they were entitled to interfere and seek to in
fuence all their neighboring states, rather than
that the United States should perform that
Office, and they have from time to time looked
with jealousy on the policy of this country,

Phenom ally Dull Day on the City

Yesterday was by far the worst day OF the
year on the city front. having regard to the
making and losing of money. 1t was the
elimination OF a bad season. What few
tugs were moving got through all their
business before noon.
Sailors are in demand, and it Is an open
secret that ii the end OF August hnds any
aole-bodied seaman dsengaged it is because
he does not want TO ship. Everybody is
waiting Tor better times. The demand for
sailors is going to be greater than the sup
ply and the A. Il. is content to wait

Dove. well known here. has arrived at Hon.

The Carrier Dove was bound to Port Town

Honolulu on June 8.
Two pup wildcats are among the recent
live exhibits in Clay-street store near the

down from the mountains Of Mendocino
County.
Thomas NJ. Fisher has been appointed on
special and secret mission in connection
with the seal islands catch next year. Mr.
FISHER has been studying his work on the
boats between Port Townsend and Seattle.
Among the removes yesterday were the
bark Louis Walsh from the stream TO tho
gas works; the schooner Helen II. KIM
ball from Fourth street to the stream; the
barkeDtine G. G. Funk from the stream to
Mission Flats; the ship Mooltan from the
stream to sea, and the Lewis Wallace and
Irmgard from the stream to Mission No. 1.
The bark Centaur. 168 DAYS out from Car
dit, arrived yesterday. She anchored off
the heads to await a fair wind and save
towage.
Nothing is palmer than the fact that the
majority OF the big British ships which
come here are coal laden. There are great
dangers and risks attached TO the trade but
IL the vessel can hold enough the venture
usually pays. 1T has been found that Oh a
long voyage spontaneous combustion OF the
coal is almost matter Of course, and meas
ures are regularly adopted for putting the
fire out The outbreak of fire usually occurs
when the vessel is 60 OF 80 days from port,
and it is customary to water any part of the
coal cargo that shows heat about this time.
