FRESNO, Jan. 21.--A convention of del
egates to the Ship Canal Convention from
the counties of Kern, Tulare, Fresno,
MERGED, Mariposa, Stanislaus, San Joa-
quin and Contra Costa assembled in this
city last evening. Much enthusiasm was
manifested for the great undertaking OF
dredging the San Joaquin River and con-
structing navigable canal from the point
where river navigation becomes imprac-
ticable to the head of the valley. The
subject was thoroughly discussed and
steps taken to lay the matter before Con-
gress in manner that Will be likely to
enlist favorable attention.
Hon. ii. j. Corcoran spoke in favor of
the project, and his remarks were fully
substantiated by areport of Marsden Man
son, Chief Engineer of the Harbor Com
mission, who was present and prepared
with facts and figures to demonstrate the
feasibility of the enterprise.
The meeting was also addressed by

Funeral Services Over His Remains
Held in London.
LONDON, Jan. 2l.-The funeral services
over the remains of Cardinal Manning
were held in Brompton Oratory to-day.
Admission 10 the oratory was by ticket
only, for it would have been utterly inn
possible for the structure to contain the
one-hundredth part Of the vast crowd de-
sirous Of attending. Notwithstanding
the miserable weather conditions pre-
vailing, the crowd began to gather in the
vicinity OF the oratOry at an early hour
1t was composed largely of workingmen
and their families, and on every side
could be heard expressions of love for the
dead prelate. So dense was the crowd
and so thick the log that traffic in the Vi
cinity Of the oratory was brought to
standstill.
When the solemn requiem mass was
commenced the Oratory was filed with
notable personages, representing the
church, the State ana all political parties.
! The Queen and Prince and Princess of
| Wales were represented. All the En-
bassadors of the foreign powers were
present also.
The coffin reposed in front of the altar,
which was draped in black, the only
ornament visible being a solitary gold
CROSSE
Bishop Headley of Newport and Men
evia preached the funeral sermon. He
opened his remarks with d touching trib-
ute to the late Duke Of Clarence and
Avondale. He said an era had closed in
the history of Catholicism in England
with the death of Cardinal Manning and
a new one was opened. He made special
reference to the Cardinals efforts to Sc
| cure Catholic education for children and
declared the struggle was not yet over.
He added that perhaps the hottest and
deadliest hour of the educational battle
which is raging throughout the world
would soon be fought.
The music throughout the service was
splendidly rendered.
Among those present were the Duke of
Norfolk, Marquis of Ripon, Marquis of
Butte, Lord Howard, Burdett Coutts, JUS
tin Mccarthy, William O'Brien John
Dillon and Thomas Sexton.
At the conclusion OF the services the
body was taken to kensal Green Gene
terry, where it was inferred, and was fol-
lowed by over 800 carriages, which con-
tanned many notable people, after which
there marched large number Of work
ingmen'S societies.

CHILEAN MATTERS.
Nothing New in the War Situation at
Washington.

WASHINGTON, Jan. q. = Secretary
Tracy received formal call from the
House Committee on Foreign Affairs
during the morning. Though Chilean
matters may have been actively dis
cussed, the visit was not made for that
purpose.
a member of the committee subse-
quently said the visit was a purely social
one. There was some talk between the
Secretary and his visitors concerning the
personnel of the navy and the stagnation
in promotions among the officers. When
asked whether the question of the condi-
ton of the navy in connection with the
pending Chilean troubles was preached
the member evaded the question by sug-
costing that such a subject would be more
properly considered by call from the
Secretary on the committee. The mem
Der gave the impression that Chilean
affairs formed very small part, if any
portion, of the conversation between the
Secretary and the committee.
No information has yet been received
by the Navy Department that the York
town has actually sailed from Valparaiso
for Callao, although Commander Evans
cabled it was his intention to sail day be-
fore yesterday.
SETTLEMENT SOON LOOKED FOR.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.-The question
Of peace or war is trembling in the bal
ance tonight and settlement is almost
certainly 10 come within three days. 1t
is generally believed now among the best
informed that Chile will make the United
States decisive answer very shortly.
OF course the character of that decision
cannot be foretold, but if it be in the form
of an apology and an announcement of a
desire to make reparation, both must be
entirely satisfactory to the administra-
ton, or preparations for war will not be
discontinued in this country.
A Cabinet Minister discussed the situa-
ton tonight, and gave what he believed
TO be Chile's reasons for delay. He said
the party in power there was obliged to
move slowly, in order not to antagonize
their opponents, and had been obliged to
consider three points. These are the de-
1nands for protection made by the refu-
gees, Matta's offensive note and the as
sault upon the Baltimore's sailors.

Special to the REconp-ux1ox.

Special TO the RECoRD-USJoN.
NEW YORK, Jan. 2l.-The Posts Lon
don special says: A dispatch from Green
wich says the steamship Moitke was
sunk this morning as the result of a col
lision with the Carlo Piotro, an Italian
steamship. Water poured i'll through the
opening stove III tho Moltke's bow, and
the vessel soon began to settle head fore
most into the water, tho swift tide run
ming materially Fastening her destruc-
ton, for The water poured in torrents
into her as she labored ut her anchor.
Finally the MO!tkc gave heavier plunge
than usual and sank. Her crew, however,
aroused from their slumbers by the noise
of the collision, had time to rush on deck
and take TO the boats, only one life being
lost, that of a seaman killed in his bunk.
The Carlo Pietro had, meantime, backed
off and came to anchor. Upon exam
nation OF her bow, it was found that she
had sustained slight damages. Her pilot
says the riding light of the Moltke was
not burning and the bell was not going,
as it should have been, during the thick
fog which prevailed. An interesting suit
for damages before the Admiralty Court
is expected to follow.
a STEAMER BURNED AT SEA.
LONDON, Jan. 21.-The British steamer
Imperial Prince, from New York Janu-
airy 4th for Leith, has arrived at Portland.
Captain Cox reports that on the morning
OF January 10th he saw burning steamer,
which later was lost sight of in the storm.
he thinks the crew persisted and she has
undoubtedly gone TO the bottom.
