wiling to Second the President.

WASHINGTON, Jan. I9.-Should the
president recommend congress to declare
war against Chill, the vote of congress
would be one of the most emphatic
alternatives ever recorded in the capitol,
but there would be a minority, and there
the maker of history will find the two
alliance senators-Kyle and PETER.
What Irby would say, were he here, is
not known. Kyle thinks war with Chill
would be a national disgrace, and that
the idea of going to war with SO small a
country is criminally ridiculous. PETER
said:
Perverted doctrine of patriotism is
responsible for the war feeling. The
idea that the trouble at Valparaiso con-
stitutes a cause for war, springs from
mistaken sense of honor. A lot of our
sailors. most of them, probably ,intoxf-
Gated. became parties to brawl, and be-
we must bring about at an enormous
expense, the death of many of our peo-
pie. The proposition is perfect foolish
ness.'
The cabinet did not pursue the discus
sion after Secretary Blaine's retirement
from the meeting today, SO that any dis
patches he may have had in his poses s.
sion could not be fully considered at
that time 1t is understood the subject
will be taken up at point where the
discussion was interrupted, when the
cabinet meets again, which may be to-
morrow, and in the meantime the cor
respondence will be withheld from con-
gress. It is learned officially tonight
the presidents message will not be sent
to congress tomorrow. While official in
formation on the point does not extend
beyond tomorrow, there are strong sur
face Indications that the president has
practically determined to postpone final
action on the matter until next week,
and this gives color to the belief that
conciliatory dispatches have already
been received and more expected. 1t is
known the president would strongly in
dorse any proposition for settlement
of the question at issue, on any peaceful
basis consistent with the honor and dig
nifty of the nation.

a Chilian veesel wrecked.

LONDON, Jan. 19.-The Pacific Steam
Navigation Company's mail steamer
John Elder, from Valparaiso for Liver
pool, was wrecked in the Straits of Ma
gellan. All the passengers and crew of
the steamer were saved, but the vessel
herself will be total loss. A dispatch
to the times from Santiago de Chill says
the news of the wreck is causing much
excitement in that city, owing to the fact
that it is generally believed that it was by
this steamer that a number of refugees
who sought safety at the American lega-
ton had left the county. The passengers
are proceeding to Conception, Chilian
port 27O miles southwest of Santiago.
The local authorities have orders to ar
rest all refugees found among the ship
wrecked people. The mails on board
the steamer were lost.

the man who is now district judge of
Washington.
It may be stated authoritatiyely that
Senator Allen is not in the race. Ee
said today that he was not to be consid-
cred as possibility. The fact is that
the president would like to appoint SEN
ator Allen under certain circumstances.
When Aliens name was mentioned to
him he stated quite positively that he
thought there had been changes enough
in the senate for the present, and he be-
lieved that Senator Allen was making a
very good senator, and that the people
of Washington would not care to see
him replaced by some new man. There
is no hope whatever for the appoint
ment of Joseph Simon, Of Oregon, and
as the Oregon delegation does not make
any other recommendation, it gives the
president quite lee way of going to
another state.

Business at a standstiI1.

CHICAGO, Jan. 19.-Reports from many
points in Missouri, Illinois and Arkansas
state that binding snow storms have
ragged for the lest twenty -four hours, and
all business is at standstill and trains
are delayed. Dispatches from Texas
state the rain storm of Monday turned
into sleet, and the live stock are suffer-
ing terribly. This is the coolest spell
Kansas City has experienced, the ther-
mometer registering 25 degrees below
this morning, but later the weather
moderated. 1t was 26 degrees below at
Atchison, where much suffering was
caused by the cold. Last night in Min
nesota and Dakota was another cold
one, but today it is somewhat warmer.
Private advices from Cherokee nation
says the streams ana pools are frozen
over and many cattle were drowned by
going onto the ice in search of water and
breaking through.

In the Cabinet.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The cabinet
meeting today was devoted almost en-
tirely to the consideration of the Chilian
question. The proceedings were only
temporarily interrupted by the slight ill
ness of Secretary Blaine. There is rea-
son to believe the government has re-
ceived dispatches through the Chilian
minister, looking to peaceful solution
of the questions in dispute, and they
were submitted to the cabinet today.
This may possibly do away altogether
ton to congress.

The Chilian Matter Postponed Through
BIaine's Illness.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The cabinet
meeting today was devoted almost en-
tirely to the consideration of the Gillian
question. The proceedings were only
temporarily interrupted by the slight
illness of Secretary Blaine. There is
reason to believe the government has re-
ceived dispatches through the Chilian
minister, looking to a peaceful solution
of the questions in dispute, and they
were submitted to the cabinet today.
This may possibly do away altogether
with the necessity of referring the ques-
tion to congress. The session continued
until o'clock. The only information
in regard to the proceedings was that no
conclusion had been reached in the
Chilian matter.

ernment of Great Britain had taken
steps to bring about more friendly
feeling between the United States and
Chilli, and will intervene to effect set

the foreign affairs committee of the

Statistics for 1891 indicate a healthy

other years, the exposition is most graf

silent witnesses to st. Paul's greatness
and municipal importance, and they
should stir feeling of pride and en-
gender spirit of resolution for greater
achievements the coming year. While
1t has not been a year of exceptional
movement in real estate circles, the
deals that have been made, and that
are recorded in the real estate trans
fers, are entirely removed from any
fictitious transactions and manipula-
tions known to the s2btlety of the
shrewd boom dealer. And the building
operations of the year have been of the
better sort throughout. There has been
nothing done to bring certain plats and
additions into the market. Every struct-
ture has been erected with the sole view
to its own utility and needfulness. 1t
should be remarked, also, that there has
been vast Improvement in architecture
and in the materials used. Buildings
are made fire proof and modern, and
continuation in this line will give st.
Paul an air of magnificent Solidity in
the years 10 come.

NEW YEARS CALLING.
An Old Custom Which Has Fallen
Into DiSuSe.

Time was when everybody one knew
kept open house on New Years day.
Back in colonial times in New Amster-
dam Petrus van Stuyvesant and all the
rest of the colony shook hands and
smiled and bowed and wished each
other well on the first day of each new
year. Gentlemen in buckled shoes and
beribboned wigs called OH danes with
powder OH hair and patch on chin" Id
the early days of the nation all the
men went calling on New Years day.
Indeed, the custom was faShionably OBJ
served until about a decade ago.
OF course, it was always jolly day.
Punch bowls occupied place in each
fashionable house whose mistress was
receiving. Now, punch in itself is a
harmless thing. Even a glass of cham
payne, except i'll temperance stories.
never really wrecks anybody's happi
ness; but even good thing may be
done to death, and that is what hap
pened to New Years calling. Three or
four young men would make calls to-
gether. Punch succeeded punch and
champagne followed close OH the heels
Ofechampagne. till, after few hours of
calling, great many men who had
started out with really laudable
intentions to be pleasant, were
reduced to a condition OF inebriety bor-
dering OH tie state of lord, or goat,
or boiled owl, three things than which
nothing is more intoxicated, they say.
This state of things grew alarming.
Then some hostess, to fulfill the letter
of the law, hung gay basket to her
door knob for cards. This was mani
festly vain, for nobody cares to go all
over town just TO deal pack of cards
into baskets, and grad ally New Years
calling fell into disuse.
Now nobody's house is open. Nobody
calls. Indeed. New Years day is voted
the one day in the year when it's the
most correct thing TO stay close at home
and make resolutions. To-day the
Newsboys' home keeps open house all
day, but, as the affair is hardly to be con-
sidered a social function, 1t is safe to
say that Mrs. Grundy doesn't approve
New Years calls, and, in consequence
none of that estimabie lady's dutiful
children will offend her preJudices by
making calls.

AMERICAN FLAX.
Company Organized to Manufact-

CHICAGO, Dec. 81. - An extensive
company backed by Eastern capital has
been organized in Chicago for the manu-
facture of American fax. a license of
incorporation was issued to it under the
name of the United States Linen Manu-
featuring company by the secretary of
state at Springfield yesterday. The
capital stock is placed at S3, 3,OOO,OO0 and
the nominal incorporators are Andrew
Spear. George f. Randall and Thomas
Wilson.
Speaking for the new company, G.
W. Cooke, an attorney, said: "At pres
ent nearly all the fax used IN this
country is imported. This company has
experimental to its own satisfaction
that it can manufacture the American
article much cheaper than it can be i'm
ported, aud at the same time furnish as
good an article as that made in foreign
countries"
