1t was Chile during the last administration
1t may be its neighbor, Peru. during this. IL
Is not likely, however. that the incident now
reported viii result in any diplomatic en-
tanglements between the two countries.
1t appears that the United States con-
snlate at one Of the Peruvian ports
has been sacked by mob with apparent police
sanction The officer acting consular agent
for the United States was fired upon and
wounded in the foot. The news comes in a brief
telegram through the L. s. minister to Peru. He
omitted such essential details ss the name of
or they were dropped from his dispatch in the
telegraphic transmission.
His telegram is as follows:
LIMA, April s
Gresham, Washington:
At (place omittedD mob attacked Masonic
lodge. sacked building and burned fixtures in
the street Incidentally. United States consul
late WAS invaded; furnishings destroyed and
acting consular agent shot in foot. Archives
saved intact. Squad of Peruvian police looked
on, while the mob performed work without in
reference. The mail brings the particulars.

SECRETARY GRESHAM REPLY.
Secretary Gresham conferred with the Presi-
dent on the subject. and this afternoon sent
the following telegram to the minister:
DEPARTMENT OF STATE
"WAsHINGroS, April 6, 1893.
"Hicks. Minister Lima:
Protest against failure OF authorities to
afford protection to consulate. and if facts are
well established ask expression Of regret. prompt
prosecution Of the guilty parties and reparation
for injury to American property or person.
"GREsHAM."
There are but six United States consniates in
Peru. follows: Mollendo. Chiclargo, Paita
Puira. Truxillo and lumber. The trouble oc-
Cured at one Of these. but at
which is not known. At the department
the impression prevails that the wrath
of the mob was directed not SO
much against the United States as against a ma
tive citizen who may have been acting in the
absence OF the regular agent. This
Is not an uncommon occurrence in Ger
tain sections of the world where the people
are apt to resent acts performed by one Of their
own number acting for foreign govern
ment that would be passed almost unnoticed if
performed by the regularly accredited agent of
that government.
IMMEDIATE SATISFACTION ExPEcrED.
1t is believed that the matter Will be satisfac-
toriiy explained in a short time
Secretary Gresham's action in the matter
WAS marked by promptness and extreme eau
tion. The demands are predicated on a
corroboration of the facts as stated briefly by
the minister.

VACANCIES VS.. REMOVALS.
In Fourth-Class Post Osice. the Former to
BE Considered First.

In Fourth-Class Post Onice. the Former TO
BE Considered First.
Attached to the list of changes in the fourth
class post Offices which is given out daily from
the Post Office Department appeared today the
following summary, which will hereafter be
a part of these lists: Total number of ap-
pointments of fourth-class postmasters for
April 6, 1898, 13l, of which seventy-two were to
fill vacancies caused by designations and deaths
and fifty mine to fill vacancies caused by re-
movals. Twenty-six of the postmasters re-
moved served four wears and over and thirty
three served over three years."
The purpose of the summary in this form Is
to give emphasis to the fact that the removals
are confined TO postmasters who have served
four years or nearly four years. Hereafter the
proportion of removals will not be quite so
large. as Postmaster General Bissell has given
directions that the places made vacant by death
or resignation shall be filled first. Then con-
sideration will be given to those csses of post
masters who have served four years or nearly
four years. Recent appointments, unless there
is some special reason requiring an earlier con-
sideration, will be taken up only after the great
bulk of the changes in the fourth class has been
made.

THE TEN-YEAR TERM.
Gen. Schofeld Defines the Law i'm Regard 20
Army Enlistments.

Zen. schoneld Defines the Law in Regard TO
Army Enlistments.
Gen. Schofield has issued a circular to the
army in regard to that clause Of the army ap-
preparation bill for the ensuing fiscal year
which provides that hereafter in time Of peace
no recruit shall be enlisted in the army for the
first time who is over thirty years of age. and
no private shall be re-enlisted who has served
ten years or more, or who is over thirty-fve
years of age, except such as have already served
as enlisted men for twenty wears or upward p"
He says that as there is no specific provision Of
law for lance corporals or for band musicians
of regiments, they must be regarded as privates,
and are, therefore, debarred from re-enlistment
after having served ten years. or upon passing
the age Of thirty-fve years. unless they shall
have already served as enlisted men for twenty
years or upward.
The following classes of enlisted men, being
specifically designated by law as of other
grades than that of private. are not affected by
the res trictions regarding re-enlistment and
soldiers discharged while serving in any of the
grades named may be re-enlisted as heretofore:
Sergeant ma jors Of cavalry. artillery. infantry
and engineers, quartermaster ser2eants of cav
airy, artillery, infantry and engineers, chef
musicians OF regiments, chief trumpeters of
cavalry, principal musicians of artillery and in
fantry, saddler sergesnts of cavalry, first ser
geauts of cavalry, artillery and infantry, ser
geants Of cavalry, artillery, infantry, sgaineers
ordnance and signal corps, corporais of cavalry,
artillery, infantry, engineers and ordnance,
sadders OF cavalry, blacksmiths and farriers of
cavalry, trumpeters Of cavalry, musicians (com-
pany) Of artillery, infantry and engineers, arti-
fcers Of artillery and infantry, wagoners of
cavalry, artillery and infantry, ordnance ser
gesnts, commissary sergeants, post quartermas-
ter sergeants, hospital stewards, acting hospital
stewards. general service clerks and messengers
Gen. Schofeld says that in determining
whether an enlisted man has served ''for twenty
years or upward" service in the volunteer forces
mustered into the service Of the United States
can be included.
