NEW YORK. Dec 29.-rhe Washing
ton correspondent of the New York
Herald telegraphs that paper as fol-
lows: / have obtained the most yalua-
bic information that has yet been made
public regarding the CHILEAN affair.
There is no question that the admin
istration fully expects n refusal of Chilli
to comply with the demand for an apol-
ogy and indemnity and is ready to ask
congress to declare war, for which
preparations have been and are still be-
ing made. Chilli, feeling that she is in
the right, is determined not to apollo.
gize, even ut the cannon's mouth. Such
is the situation upon the diplomatic
chess board. -hFf
Chilli has not yet asked for arbitra.
ton. but it is known to the cabinet and
to your correspondent that she Is likely
to do SO. Minister Montt, the Gillian
minister here, has all along seriously
doubted the intention of this govern
ment to declare war in event of Chili's
refusal to accede to our demands.
Monday, however, he realized his
mistake, and the result was that he
cabled to President Montt that the situ-
alton here was very serious; that this
government meant fight, and that the
navy was rapidly being placed on n
war footing. This in itself is startling
news, and here is more of the same
sort Not only has the navy been
made available in event of hostilities,
but great activity has taken place in
the army, and both departments arc
now ready to act in concert ut n mo.

selected, the transports provided, and
all is ready to place this force on
Gillian soil very soon after war is for.

1t is proposed to take the troops from

THE GREAT MIANroNOMAH
Most Terrible OF All the wnr Vessels of tho

Most Terrible OF All the wnr Vessels of tho
United states. to Begin Her Cruise.
NEW YORK. Dec. 31-The repairs and
alterations on the handsome harbor de-
Tense vessel, the Miantonomah, have at
last been brought to an end. and ON
New Years day the ship starts out on
brief cruise in the direction OF Card
ner's island. for the purpose of testing
her ewly-mountcd guns
Everything on the queer-shaped. low
lying craft was moving at hot haste
this morning, in anticipation of her
coming departure The test of the ne w
boilers and engines began at S o'clock
Wednesday night, and will be c0ntin-
ued, probably. for forty eight hours.
All this while full steam is kept on. and
the entire machinery of the vessel is
worked to its utmost capacity, The
ship, however. does not leave the dock.
The test has been perfectly satisfacto-
ry so far There are two things left to
be done on board the Miantonomah-
coaling and provisioning-and these
were begun ut noon Wednesday. They
Will be pushed forward and completed
by night-fall Thursday.
The anticipated test of the guns of
modern type. with which the Miantono-
NAH has lately been provided, is viewed
with the liveliest interest by naval ex-
perts and scientific men. Besides four
ten-inch breech-loading rifles, two
three-pounder HotchlSiss rapid firing
guns and two thirty -seven millimetic
Hotchkiss revolving cannon
The Miantonomah has the very new
est thing in ordnance in the shape of
two six-pounder Driggs-Schroeder rap
id-tring cannon. These guns have
never been tried on board U. S. cruisers
before; they throw a six-pound highly
explosive shell every fifteen or twenty
seconds, from distance of $500 yards
and that with the greatest accuracy.
They can be used 1000 or 5000 yards
