Chill Apparently willing to Settle All
Trouble with This Country Amicably.
LONDON, Jan, 1.-The Santiago de
Chilli CORES pondent of the Times atiirms
on what he declares to be the highest
authority that Chilli would not feel hui
inflated in helping in the utmost of her
power to terminate peacefully and IN
manner honorable to both herself and
the United States the conflict which but
for the lengthy and secret form of
criminal procedure followed in Chilli,
which has allowed of constant false re-
ports hostile to a good understanding
to be propagated abroad, would never
have attained such exaggerated pro-
portions. The correspondent says it is
evident that there are firebrands who
are anxious for the Inauguration of a
war which would be disastrous to the
best interests of both countries con-
cerned.
CHILIs OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Senor Montt,
the CHILEAN minister. in an interview
with Secretary Blaine laid before him
the following translation Of a telegram
from Mr. Malta, the minister of foreign
affairs, bearing on the inquiry into the
trouble in the city of Valparaiso be-
tween the Chilians and the sailors from
the United States steamship Baltimore:
Minister of Cali Washington:
SANTIAGO DE CHILL, Dec. l'.-From the
summary of proceedings IL appears that the
strug Gle commenced between two sailors in
q tavern at the Ward Arrayan. tn t IL was
continued in the street with the accession OF
numbers of inhabitants and tran lent par
ties from the streets call d Del Ciave, san
Francisco and Alamos The disc der coi-
tinued and extende ed to the streess Del
Arsenal and San Martin, where the poll e
force succee ted in restoring order. All
the North Americans ex :ept two state that
the police did their duty, and from the vo.-
um nous proceed ngI il appears that the
court has done and is doing its duty. When
ever the prosecuting attorney renders his
opinion and the time for producing evidence
shall have expired. sentence will be Civ
en- and establishing who and how many
are the guilty parties who may only be
presumed at present Whoever they may
be they will be punished The legal pro-
ceedings are being actively carried forward
to their proper termination.
The minister, when asked for an
opinion respecting the statements made
in the telegram, called special atten-
ton to the statement that all the North
Americans excepting two had said that
the police did their duty. He regarded
this as favorable to the Gillian side of
the controversy.
1t is noted that the Gillian minister
of foreign affairs promises that when
the due process of law, according to
Gillian Jurisprudence, be observed,
those found guilty will be punished.
and says that these judicial proceed
ings are being carried forward actively.
This. in connection with the state
ment that the police did their duty,
is significant as showing that the
Gillian government does not wish
that the action of individuals belonging
in Chilli shall be confounded with the
actions of those connected with the
government and having official STATEN.
