II TOOK nerve.
Without Either His Presence or
Notifying Him.

When Asked to Explain Minister Mont
Simply said It was the Law OF His
Country = Chill Undoubtedly Doesn't
Favor Arbitration-The Stand of the
Administration Unchanged
NEW YORK. Jan. 1.-THE Press pub
fishes the following Washington special.
dated Sunday night:
1t is learned tonight that Senior Montt,
CHILEAN minister to Washington, has
within few hours held an interview
with representative official of the
United States state department.
The United States officer asked Senior
Montt: us it true that your govern
ment is preparing to make proposition
to submit the differences between the
United States and Chill to arbitration p
Senior Mont replied: eff you mean
that I have received word officially or
from any one in authority to that effect.
/ answer No"
Have you been apprised that your
government is taking steps to meet the
demands of the United States?"
Senior Mcntt made identically the
same reply to this question rs the one
already quoted.
We Don't Understand.
When asked how the Gillian govern
ment came to indict and convict an
American sailor Davidson of murder
without his presence and without Motif
cation, Senior Montt simply said that
such was the law of his country. A
shrug was the only answer he deigned
to the inquiry as to what means would
be employed to place Davidson in Gus
tody.
The Administration Firm Ever
These categorical questions and shift
ing replies We're in possession of Presi-
exchange. They indicate that the pol
icy of the administration is as firm as
ever, and that Chill will be cabled 20
meet every demand that the United
States has made. Senior Montt realizes
this, and it is said that he has sent his
cousin, the president of Chill, a long
cipher dispatch tonight. urging some
fulfillment of the vague promises he has
been led to make.

Texas lines will meet in st. Louis,
Thursday, September l, to consider an
advance in local rates under Judge Nc

feature Of the decision that Texas roads
