A War Party and a Peace Party-Peru-
vians and Balmacedans Happy.
New YORK, Jan. N.-The Herald's Santi-
ago special says: Intense anxiety is felt in
this city as to the reply the United States
will make to the note sent by Minister Per-
riera. Papers which favored BalmacedR
and the supporters of the late dictator are
growing over the manner in which
the matter has been handled by
the present government and doing all
they can to iniane the people. In Vail
paraiso the matter is being discussed with
more calmness. Merchants and bankers
there generally believe a peaceful settle
mont OF pending difficulties between the
United States and Chilli will be reached.
In Iquique the people especially wrought
up to a high pitch Peruvian resi-
affairs. The press of Santiago and VAL
pasaiso print the widest stories relative to
the ultimatum. La Union is especially Bit
ter, and calls on the people, male and fe.
male, to stand together in upholding the
honor of the country. In regard to
States would require u salute. to the
stars and stripes, it says, "Our noblo sail
ors would prefer sinking to the bottom OF
the sea rather than salute the yankee flag"
majority of the intelligent people look
upon the act of the government in regard
to an apology and the withdrawal cf tho
demand for Egan's recall, in favorable
light. La Union prints letter
from an Englisman advising the severance
of all diplomatic and consular relations
with the United States. Report reaches mo
that tho cabinet is much dissatisfied with
the course of Montt, Chilian minister at
Washington. His last message. re-
ceived Friday. it ia said, assured
the government that the affair
was coming to speedy conclusion.
He has all along led the president and adj
visors to believe Blaine desirous of sub
mitting the whole affair to arbitration.
Some think Pedro Montt was misled by
Richard l.. Trumbull, Julio Foster and
their democratic friends.
The excuse made for demanding the re-
call of Minister Egan is that it was under
stood that he cabled Blaine that the
Chi.ian government granted safe con-
ducts to refugees and then recalled them.
He nevor made such statement. The
minister of Justice ordered Judge Foster to
drop allaother work and proceed Mt once to
conclude the trial of the Baltimore case.
hear that the purchase of the cruiser now
in the Armstrong yard has been effected
by the Chilian government. There is talk
tonight of trouble between Chilli and
Argentina on the question of delimitation.
Chiliun members of the commission say
Argentina wants the ports on the Pacific
side of Patagonian territory, which it is
doubtful Chill will grant.

News that Presidents Harrison had
sent special message TO congress
Monday relating to the points at issue be-
tween the United States and Chill, and dis
patches published here yesterday and to-
day describing the attitude of the Ameri-

virtual exclusion of all other questions
The younger and hotter headed portion Of
war talk. Rather than have the govern
ment acknowledge fault or apologize for itf
utterances. these young patriots declare
they would prefer to see resort to arms
Such talk as this, it is believed, reflects the
opinion OF large element Of the common
people.
Naval officers are reported to be much
stirred up at the thought that they rnay be
called upon to salute the stars and stripes
They 90 so far as to say, according to re-
ports published in to-day g papers, that they

A Question That Leech Could Not Answer
Satisfactorily.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Leeoh, director of
the mint, was before the house committee
on coinage, weights and measures, and ex-
amined relative to the silver question. He
is of the opinion that the supply and de-
mnnd for silver alone regulated its price
ana favored the international agreement as
the best solution of the question. Having
spoken of India's large balance of trade,
McKeighRn (Neb.) asked if that, instead
of showing prosperity on the part of India
it did not show that India sold so cheaply
that other countries preferred to buy of,
rather than to sell to, her. When Leech
responded that q large trade balance was
generally thought good thing for coun-
try, MoKeighan propounded this question,
which was not satisfactorily answered:
why then, nfter 1888, when the United
States had one of it's largest trade bal
anoes, did we have to cushion the beams of
our oars to carry trnmps on?'
