New YORK. Jan. GA Washington dis
patch quotes Assistant Secretary Of State
Adee, speaking of Minister Egan. as say
ing that Mr.. Egan's course has been one
only to merit praises. He considers Egan
one of the best ministers We have in the
service. Throughout this case he has acted
in most statesmanlike manner. The pub
lication of tho correspondence will show
that the dispatch in which Malta accused
Egan of virulent language is as far from
characteristic as it possibly can be.
Another dispatch says it is stated that
Chiliun Minister Montt has received from
his government positive and complete as
surances that the Chilian government has
now in preparation and will Immediately
forward, for him to present to the United
States. comprehensive aud full apology
and promise of reparation.
AT the state department the rumor is
denied. Secretary T,acy is firmly con-
vinced that ut least show of force will be
necessary to bring Chilians to terms. He
seems to agree with the prevailing opinion
among naval officers that Chilinns can u,-
derstana no arguments unless backed up
by force, and his present plans conten-
plates n naval demonstration i'll the vicin-
ity of Valparaiso.

assumed q most acute phase. This infor-
formation is to tho effect that the Chilian
government has received from the govern
ment Of the United States un ultimatum
which. in the strongest possible terms,
states that diplomatic relations between
the two countries will cease unless tho
offensive circular note sent out by Senior
Malta, recent Chillan minister, in regard
to the Baltimore affair, is withdrawn.
Furthermore, the ultimatum demands that
Chilli Immediately make reparation for the
attack by mob upon the Baltimore's
sailors in Valparaiso, and that she make an
apology for those attacks. The ultimatum
concludes with the statement that the
United States will not brook further delay
on the part Of Chill in answering the de-

They Pull the Cornishmen Oyer the Line
In short Order.
BUTTE. Jan. 23.-lSpecial. THE Irish
Cornish tug of war tonight was witnessed
by a crowd that packed the pavilion rink
to the doors. A long, close contest was ex-
peoted. but the Irish had it all their own
way. The English team mounted the plat
form to the tune of God Save the Queen, :"
and the Irish to the tune of wearing of
the Green" The Irish began pulling the
rope from the start and kept it moving
until in ten minutes the five
feet were gained. Meanwhile, their
sympathizers stood mp on chairs and
benches and yelled. That was the only tug
of tho evening. The rest of the teams re-
fused to pull in the tournament further
on the ground that they were not eeeting
enough of the receipts. Manager Haller
paid all tonight except tho Norwegians,
whose captain he could not find. The Nor
wegians followed him to saloon and
threatened to hang him if he did not settle.
The Irish team was in the same place and
stood by Haller. Two Norwegians were
thrown out of the place and the rest quieted
down. 1t is likely that the tournament is
over, although an effort will be made to-
morrow to patch up the differences.

The Eternal City Shaken.

ROME, Jan. 23.-several quite severe
shocks of earthquake were felt here last
night, which caused a panic in the more
crowded quarters of the city. The inhabit-
ants of the houses thought the dwellings
about to fall and rushed into the streets,
many of them in dishevelled state not
even waiting to save any Of their personal
effects. So much did they fear the repeti-
tion of the shocks that they remained on
the streets all night. The theaters shook
with the violence of the shocks and the
persons present at the performances were
greatly frightened. The panic soon sub
sided. however. Most of the clocks in the
city stopped at 1927 The ground shook 80
violently that the street lamps were extin-
guished. The pope was aroused by the
earth's tremors and Immediately sent to
the vatican observatory to inquire if they
are likely to prove serious. His holiness
was assured there was no danger or any
prospect of any and he therefore retired
for the night.
At a number of places in the province
houses were demolished but nobody has
been reported killed.
