NO NEWS At HAND.
Official information Not to Be Had
at the Capitai.

WASHINGToN,J Jan. 22.-No dispatches
were received today at either the state
or navy department in regard to the
condition of affairs In Chill, and in
fact there are really no new devel-
opments in regard to that question,
except, possibly, the plan OF action de-
cided upon by the president and his
cabinet at their meeting this afternoon.
1t is, of course, impossible to obtain any
official information ON the subject. but
1t is generally understood that the cabi-
net practically decided to submit the
matter to congress early next week. in
order that congress. as well as the coun-
try at large, might know the exact
status or the controversy betwsen this
country and Chilli
The Star has this: According to the

THE NEED OF BOTH.

The interests of the cotton growers in
the South and the food producers Ia the
West have common bond, The world
is buying rather less than 100000 bales
of American cotton yearly. The prod
uct in 1891 was S,500,00O bales. The
inevitable result was that prices went
down to Improbable figures. The plant
ers now propose to put fewer acres in
cotton and more in food supplies. They
will grow more wheat. corn, oats and
wool, and make more. butter. They will
then need less of the surplus products
of the West. The home market for the
Northwestern farmer will become less,
and, as good crops are grown over the
water, and tariff restraints interfere
with foreign trade, where will he find
buyers for his surplus products? Will
he not find that surfeit of production
will put prices below The cost of pro-
duction, as the cotton growers now al
lege is the case with them? 1t is pal
pable. then, that the need of both cotton
growers and producers of breadstuffs is
the most promotive conditions of for
eign traffic. The world must buy more
American cotton and all the surplus
farm products. This it will only do
when it can pay for them with what it
has to trade with.

The McKibbin Operators Decide
to Continue the Strike.
The lady operators of the McKibb:n
& Co. factory met yesterday afternoon
at Labor hall and received the report of
their committee sent to see the manu-
featuring firm. They reported that J0-
seph McKibbin refused to do anything
in the matter. The report of a commit
tee of male operatives was also received.
1t was decided to hold out and con-
tinue the strike, as the reduction in
wages made short time ago put The
earnings to point too low to accept.
On the previous scale of higher figures
experienced operatives had only been
able to earn from So to IS per week.
The meeting was we'll attended and
gave out the following notice.:
A meeting of lady employees of all the
fur manufacturing houses here has been
called for Monday evening at 7:30. All
the ladies in the fur-manufacturing
lines are earnestly invited to be present.
The furriers also meet on Monday
night and will consider the grievances
OF the female operatives. The state
ment of Joseph McKibben that his firm
had been paying more wages than other
concerns in the same line is met by the
explanation that his work is harder on
account OF the use of so much foot
power for machines instead or steam.

AN ULTINATUM SENT.
Blaine Has Dispatched a Peremp-
tory Demand.

CHICAGO, Jan. 22.-The Inter Oceans
Washington special tonight says: "The
crisis in Chilian matters is rapidly
approaching. Yesterday an ultima
tum was sent to the Chilian gov
eminent through Minister Egan. The
dispatch was signed by Secretary
Blaine. 1t was not communicated to
the government of Chill through Senor
Montt, the Chilian minister here. The
latter has no knowledge oft, except
that he may have been advised today by
cable from his own government.
The dispatch was OF peremptory
character. 1t directed Mr.. Egan to de-
mand categorically OF the Chllian gov
ernment an immediate answer TO the
request which had already been made.
The purpose of it is to inform the
ChiliaH government that the United
States must have an answer at once to
its demand for reparation and apology.
The presidents message is to be sent to
congress Monday, whatever may be
the answer from Minister Egan,
or whether or not he shall be able to
obtain any answer from the Chiian gov
ernment at all. The dispatch, which
was sent by the order of the president,
with the approval of the cabinet, leaves
no chance for any one to doubt what the
policy OF the administration will be.
The American people will not be
compelled to wait long to know what
the American side of this controversy
is. A vast amount of correspondence
said TO comprise a hundred and sixty
thousand words, possibly eighty columns
of the ordinary newspaper. will be sent
TO Congress Monday; but it will not be
necessary for the papers to print, or for
the people to read, any of
the correspondence to ascertain
what the situation is, or what the
policy of the government is. That can
be learned from the message of Presi-
dent Harrison. which will not be more
than three columns in length of

The reading Of it will give all the in
formation needed to any American to
determine exactly what has happened
in Chill. or what the attitude of the adj
ministration has been, and what the
recommendation of the president to the
congress of the United States is.
The latest suggestion of the Chilian
government is that there shall be longer
delay, delay which it is estimated
might be equivalent to six months,
in which time the Captain Pratt

trated with painful potency in the re-
cent dispatch to the New York World,
in which our dirty linen of diSsenSion
was washed before an audience of 500
delegates from rival cities in Washing
ton. The GLOBE has no plea to make
for either the choice OF the market
house plan or the suggestion of more
imposing and valuable edifice in Rice
park. 1t has no word of condemnation
or criticism of any reasonable plan
whereby suitable hall can be secured,
and that within the coming year of 1892.
Only do it. The city owes it to herself;
she owes it to the delegation of her citi-
zenS in Washington who pledged their
words of honor that, regardless of tn e
location OF two or three days political
convention in our midst, audi
torium plans were drawn. the
money appropriated. and suit

deem these pledges. The question has
now become, il sense, national one.
Rival cities are watching us. The same
columns of Eastern papers, ready to
handicap the efforts of our delegation in
Washington by the publication OF a
small dispatch that had great influ-
ence, are open to other news items"
derogatory to our good faith. Is st.
Paul ready to abide the results of such
calamity? Are we ready to admit
that our delegation went East with a
lie on their lips and trick in their
heads? The GLOBE does not believe
such is the case. If true, it has sadly
overestimated the dignity of character
and honesty of purpose of our citizens.

freely expressed opinions of prominent

against it in vain. In the event that
New York is discordant and not united
upon its candidate, or its wrangles rem.
der it inadvisable to take any man
from that state, no other name in
the East would be acceptable. This
is, at least, the present outlook.
Then, if the West furnishes the
man, the Democracy of Illinois would
rise up in solid phalanx and offer their
favorite. The new senator and veteran
statesman and soldier would be their
unanimous choice. They would swarm
the ways in Chicago like bees in hive.
Ii not quite resistless, they would be a
tremendous force. 1t might be claimed
that no other man could SO surely place
Illinois in the Democratic column, aud
that with it and Wisconsin and Indiana
success could be had, even without New
York. 1t is not assumed that such
contingency will arise, nor that its pos
sibility had anything to do with the
selection of Chicago. but it is quite zoo
realistic picture to be classed as
mere fancy sketch.

DO YOU BOWL?

This question has significance only
when applied to the game of American
tenpins. Its popularity is rapidly in
creasing, particularly in st. Paul. 1t
has now the added momentum of a
number of our most prominent citizens
in professional and business circles. In
recognition Of the merits of a game
combining SO many of the elements of
science and healthy recreation, the
GLOBE has hung up handsome gold
medal to be competed for in tourna-
ment of bowling teams at an early day.
There are number of bowling clubs
now organized In the city, and there
will be others within short time. The
public is invited to interest itself in this
event, as it bids fair to awaken lively
interest among all classes of citizens.

HELD FOR A CRISIS.
A Steamship Secured That Is
Handy to Have.


PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 22.-Shipping
circles In this city we're stirred up
today over report that the gov
ernment had impressed the Amer
lean line steamship Ohio to be
used in case of war. The report was
strengthened by the fact that orders
were given not to take aboard the cargo
for the vessel that was lying on the
dock, and that instead coal was being
rapidly put in. The officers of the
steamship company admitted that the
Ohio had been taken off her regular
trip between this port and Liver
pool, but they declined to say
for what purpose she was to be used.
They were careful, ho wever, to say that
she had not been chartered by the goy-
ernment. From another reliable source
in was learned that without doubt the
government has exercised its right to
take possession of any merchant vessel
sailing under the national flag
for Its own use when war OF the
probability of war demands it, and un-
der this law has impressed the Ohio.
1t was also learned from the same
sources that the Ohio VIII take aboard
400 tons of coal as ballast and Monday
or Tuesday next proceed to New York.
There she will lie until the present
difficulty with Chill has been arranged
satisfactorily OF war is declared.

TRADE Is DOING 1T.

The GLOBE has frequently called at
tention to the many evidences of pros
perity and renewed business activity to
be found in the smaller cities and towns
of the state. New business blocks and
residences are in course of erection in
nearly every town, city and village in
the farming sections, and the best of it
all is that they are being built to sup
ply an actual demand and not for boom
ing purposes. This demand for busi-
ness blocks and residences is something
new in many of these towns, and prob
ably marks the advent of a new era in
their history. The large crop of last
year placed the farmers III such shape
financially that they were and are able
to buy more literally of their home mer-
chants, which they seem to.be doing, re-
gardless of the various supply agencies
that have been seeking their patronage
In this connection word can ne said
for the home merchant, through whose
efforts the smaller towns and cities
grow ana prosper. 1t is great thing
for the farmers of a country to have
prosperous and thriving towns near at
hand. The market for their productions
is improved, and, lin addition to this, they
are brought many other advantages.
There is no reason why the state of
Minnesota should not boast of hun
dreds of thriving towns where there is
one today. and the way to get there is
for the people Of each community to
patroniZe their home merchants. The
home dealers are reliable, and, as a
rule, sell as cheaply as the foreign deal
erS, in addition to affording the buyer
an opportunity to see just what he buys.
The various farmers supply agencies
Go not deserve the patronage of the peo-
pie of Minnesota, and they ought not to
get it. The farmers aud all other peo-
pie of Minnesota should buy of the
merchants who live among them and
are interested in the growth and pros
perity Of the community.
