SANTIAGO, via Galveston, Jan. o8.-
Special dispatch TO the Associated press.-
There is much quister feeling hero than
was evident yesterday and during the past
few days. The Chilian officials, however.
continue to express surprise at the ultima
tunn forwarded from President Harrison.
The Associated press correspondent to-dav
had an interview with one of the most
prominent officials of the Chilia,l
foreign office. The correspondent WAS
oourteously met and the conve sation
free and cordial. In the course of tho
interview it vas shown very plainly that
the foreign office would not saw in direct
manner that Minister Mont had been de-
ceived by him from the American secretary
of state, but it was evident that the official
thought SO. He said Blaine had all along
given Montt to understand that settlement
of the serious controversy between the two
republics WAS being reached and Blaine r
month ago proposed submission to arbltra-
tion the outrageous assault upon the Balti-
more's sailors and also agreed to accept
Months terms for the withdrawal of the
Malta telegram. 1t is asserted here that
Egan info: med the Chilian government a
week ago that the questions at issue were
being settled. Egnn declared that he said
nothing of the kind. On tho night of tho
receipt of the ultimatum a oablepram was
received from Minister Montt advising the
Chilian governments to stand firm, as all
WAS favorable in Washington. There is in
tense excitement here as to the outcome of
the situation. Eve.y one from the high
est official to the most humble citizens

The Price of u Dollar.

Ell PAso, Texas, Jan. 28.-The recent
drop in the price of silver bullion has had a
serious effect upon the commercial rela-
tions between Mexico and the United
States, as it reduces the value of the Mexi-
can silver dollar to figure not calculated
to stimulate trade between the two repub-
lies Mexican money is quoted at II cents
here to-day and bankers assert that if bar
silver remains at 93s cents drop to 70 cents
is inevitable. A dollars worth of United
States commodities are worth SLAP in
Mexican money, figuring the Mexican dol
lar at 70 cents, and added to this is the cost
of transportation and custom duties, which
will add fully 10 per cent. more before
goods are placed upon the Mexican market.
The effect of the FILLING off in the price of
silver, Mexico's free zone along her from
tier, and the recently imposed export tax
on ores. is most keenly felt on this border,
and if something is not done to remedy
this quickly trade relations will be entirely
cut off.

Egan's dispatch from Santiago was long

mansion until during the meeting of the

Its Rnvages Are Carrying OF Whole
Families in Indian Territory. a
The report comes hero from the Indian
country, says Guthrie special to the Folt
Worth Gazette, that the grip is epidemic in
many of the tribes, and its ravages are
much more fatal than usual with the dis
onse among the whites. 1t appears to atft ct
children and old peopls more than any
other class. and in two instances reported
the epidemic has become SO severe TINT
whole families have been swept away.
Among the Cheyennes the malndy is espec-
ially severe. md runner who has lately
come from there says that there are down
in one village not less than nine out OF
every ten, und as these absolutely refuse to
receive the attention of the white physi-
clans they are III danger ofbeing almost e1-
terminated. The disorder appears to be of
rheumatic nature, and in every case re-
ported the patient has had an intlamma-
tory action in all the smaller joints, and all
the indications of acute alticular trouble
is present invariably.
Among the Klowas the disease is rs bad
and it is feared by the local surgeon that
many deaths will occur among the chill,
dren. They ate attacked with what ap-
peats to be bad cold, and this develops
into Il throat trouble, which is very obsti-
nate and extends to the glands along the
neck. causing these to swell in frightful
manner These swollen glands are liahle
to form abscesses and assist the mnlady i'll
producing death.
In nearly all the other tribes in the terri
tory, espeoiaily what il known as Blanket
Indians" the trouble has been very severe,
and in every village the deatha have been
80 numerous M to cause almost Il panic

Permit to Cut Timber.

M1ssouhA, Jan. 2s.-[Special.] THE ap-
plication of the Blackfoot Milling company
for permit to cut timber on government
land has been granted bv tho interior de-
rnrtment. This is the first permit of this
kind granted in this state. The permit as
given allows the company to out 80 per cent.
of the me charitable timber on each acre
within tho limits of their permit. and they
are required to report monthly to the regis
ter and receiver at tho Missoula land office
as to the amount of timber cut. The per-
NIT was issued through II. j. Hartman,
who has received private advice from
Washington to the effect that Secretary
Noble will grant no moro permits inside tho
unsutveyed railroad limits, holding that
tho railroad COMPANY, under it's grant. is
entitled to 80 per cent. of timber on unsur-
veyed lands. An effort will be mado to in
duce the secretary to modify his views
on this point, but it is unlikely any other
permits will be granted.

Hale, Of Maine, Exalts Reciprocity for
+s | tire Glory 81 the Premier. ,@.Ev$s ~
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.-Mr. Hale spoke at
great length in the senate upon the benefits
OF reciprocity, which he said was annexed
the American laborer by opening new
markets for his products, to be paid for in
articles which could never compete with his
labor. He did not hesitate in stating, as q
result Of his observation, that the recipro-
the part of the measure that foated the
whole act and kept it from being swamped
in the storm, which, with or without reason.
broke upon it from the day Of it's passage.
The reciprocal plan was born of distin-
Ruished republican parensage and adopted
by that patty. Democratic newspapers de-
nted it rs al impractioable scheme.
The senator from New York, who recently
entered this chamber as q member of this
body, and who brought as credentials OF
leadership of his party, the trophy of q
great state. chained, gagged, despoiled d
Of her rights. had paused for moment in
his work of spoilation to declare in the
democratic state convention at Saratoga,
New York. Sept. is last. which assmbled
to Go his will and register his decree. that
the democratic party of New York renewed
it's pledges of fidelity to tho democratic
faith and denounced in strong terms the
Blaine reciprocity as a humbug. These
vicious attacks upon the measure by demo-
cratic leaders and newspapers had weak
ened the effect of the measure abroad, made
hard the task of American negotiators,
strengthened the bands of foreign govern
ments, were mischievious, unpatriotic and
meant to be deadly in their effect, both at
home and abroad This achievement of
republican craftsmanship would be carried
before the people in the next presidential
