Their LovsIInsss Said to he Unequaied
on the Hemisphsre-
The most striking features Of the
Gillian cities, Valparaiso and Santiago,
are those of its women. Certainly no.
where else in South America, II on all
the western hemisphere, is there to be
found 50 large a proportion OF pretty
women in a total population. Inc
spaniards say that the very air there
conduces to a perfect development OF
form and feature. However that may
be. II is a fact that the proportion OF
beautiful women to be seen in the cities
mentioned is remarkable. The pure
blood of the German, French and En-
glish has mingled with the Indo-Span-
/. ish and the result is a race with
the graces and beauties OF eacn, beside
which the far-famed beauty OF the
Indo-Spanish women seem tame anu
insipid. With their beauty they have
much ease and grace Of movement, and
walk with the long, swinging Virlle
stride of the English girl. Strange to
say. the modern Gillian beauty has Ut
tie love for the Spaniards and resents
the imputation that she is an "lndo-Es-
nanol" But they are pleased i'm
oansely. any and all Of them, when
referred to as the Yankees OF South
America" On the promenades or when
shopping, riding and attending to ordi-
nary social duties, they are attired

FRANK PETTUS
TO STAND FOR RE-ELEC-

Hon. Charles Waller Is Developing Much Strength in the Race for the Speak-
 ership-Treasure Smith Resigns.

Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 9.-(Staff Cor respondent.)- .)-It was reported late this afternoon that Hon. Francis l.. Pettus had declined to allow his name to go be- fore the caucus for reelection as presi- dent of the senate. Your correspondent called on MT. Pettus at his room at the Exchange hotel and he substantiated the rumor by saying: Yes, it is true that will not be a candidate for president of the senate. The race is now between Hon. A. ID. Sayre, of this city, and Hon. John Y. Fitzpatrick, of Wilcox" rWill you state why you decline to be candidate, MT. Pettus''
 "Yes," he said, "because Gen. Pettus is a candidate for the United States senate, and do not wish to interfere with his plans in any manner"
 Had the fact that you have opposition for the presidency anything to do with your withdra wal from the racer" , He promptly replied No, none in the wor1dl'

speech, will say in reference to his ex- planation of the Venezuelan matter that the terms of the settlement as stated by the prime minister are perfectly satisfac- tory, involving no surrender of essential principles. The solution arrived at will enable each side to claim a victory. Lord Salisbury can justly say he succeeded in protecting the rights of the British set tiers and MT. Olney can claim with literal truth that he succeeded in bringing Great Britain to consent to arbitration.
 The Post will say that the settlement of the Venezuelan dispute is wholly satis- factory to Great Britain and the United States. s
 The Daily Graphic holds that the solu- tion of the vexatious question reflects the highest credit upon all concerned. It fully justifies the intervention of the United States.
 2 The Standard will briefly welcome "The suspicious announcement"
 The Chronicle will say that it finds Lord Salisbury's statement rather pug zling. It doubts whether settled colon- ists exist in any great number, but sup poses 1t is all right.
 The Daily Telegraph says the terms of the settlement leave the dignity and in- terests of Great Britain and the United States unimpaired.

THE SANTA FEE MUDDLE.
Has Taken New and Sensational Turn
 In Kansas.

Has Taken New and Sensational Turn
 In Kansas.
 Oskaloosa, Kan, Nov. 9-The proceed ings against the Santa Fe Railway com pany, wherein 1t was sought to throw it's property, located in Kansas in the hands of a receiver, took an unexpected and interesting turn today. The case was taken out of the Jefferson county court and transferred to the United States court to go before Judge Foster The case was also taken out of the hands of the county attorney of Jefferson county, who brought the suit, by the action of Gov. Morrill,, who issued an order instructing the attorney general to take charge of the case. General-Soltcitor Kenna, of the Santa Fe. Solicitor Hurd, of the Kan sas division; Solicitor Dunlap, of Illinois, and ex-Chief Justice A. H. Horton came over to Oskaloosa today and took the first legal steps taken on behalf of the Santa Fe. They filed their petition and bond and secured a writ transferring the case from the district court of Jeffersoh county to the United States court The federal point raised by them was inas- much as all of the provisions ordered by the United States court in the former receivership matter had not been com- piled with and the master in chancery discharged, the road is yet in the hands of the United States court, and hence no suit against 1t could be brought in any district court.
 The action of Gov. Morrill, in instruct ing the attorney-general to take charge of the case was the most sensational of todays developments. It was entirely unexpected, so it was said by County Att torney Phynney. It takes the matter entirely out of his hands and makes the controversy now between the state exclu- slvey and the road If, as Is rumored, there is any scheme back of the case, the governors action nips 1t in the bud. It is that the governor and attorney-gen- eral are mot in sympathy with the pur- poses of the suit; that they believe that 1t Is not founded on law and against good policy.
 Solicitor Kenna, in discussing the matt ter, said "I have no fear at all about the final outcome of this case. l am anx7 ious that 1t be speedily tried, and we will meet it on Its merits. The alien land law under which the action was brought was never Intended to apply to railroads and I have no fear but that the courts will so decide"

CHEERING FOR HOWELL.

Atlanta, Nov. 9.-At 10 o'clock a recess was taken for fifteen minutes. When the caucus reconvened there was some new filibustering and another recess was talk en for fifteen minutes. No ballot has been taken since the twelfth and the caucus is now in recess. The galleries, Hobbies and committee rooms were clear ed before the first ballot was taken. A great crowd has been waiting outside the doors of the. house of representatives from the time the voting began, cheering and yelling at the announcements. The preponderance of the cheering is for Howell. tai0l1tt 1N
 The full democratic vote would be IFS, but four members are absent and from one to seven members have refrained from voting on different ballots. ts
 In a full caucus it would take 89 votes to nominate. The least number on any ballot tonight to nominate would have been 83. on the eleventh. -xi
 There is some doubt as to which side wanted the recess and who wants to car ny the deadlock over until tomorrow.
 President Berner, of the senate, Is Gov ernor Atkinsons manager in the caucus. The Fulton county delegation and Sena- tors Dunwoody and Gray are working for Howell. Speaker Jenkins is leading the Lewis forces and the Cobb county delega- tion is managing Clay's faction.

V ago, H., Nov 9.-J. Hermann & Co.'S jewelry store on the tenth floor of the Masonic Temple, was entered by two armed robbers late this afternoon who secured about s5,000 worth of dia- monds, gold watch and chain and $100 in money and escaped. MT. Hermann, proprietor, and c. A. McGurty, a clerk, were the only occupants of the room when the robbers entered. They we're preparing to close up the days business when they were confronted with drawn revolvers The outlaws ordered them into one corner of the room and then bound and gagged both. While one rob Der watched over them with his pistol his companion rifed the safe of its con- tents and slipped a. quantity of gems into his pocket. MT. Hermanns watch was taken from him. The robbers escaped as they had entered and passed out into the street without exciting suspicion.
 It was several minutes before the pro- prietor and the clerk could release them selves and the robbers had made good their escape. The matter was reported to police headquarters and a dozen of hoers were detailed on the case. No clue to the identity of the robbers has been found.
 They are said to be not more than 21 years of age

PARDoNED BY PRESIDENT.
A Reminder of the Great Railway Strike
 of 1&q6

A. Reminder of the Great Railway Strike
 of 1896.
 Washington, Nov. 9.-The President has pardoned w. H. Clune, Isaac Ross and Phillip Stanwood. of California, sentenced Dec 6, 1894, to pay a fine of $l and to be confined in Los Angeles county Jail eigh- teen months for conspiracy In violation of section $40, registered statutes, the of fence being committed in the railway riots at that time general throughout the country.
 These cases were appealed to the United States supreme court and sem tence was suspended until the court af- firmed the sentence of the lower court last spring.
 The President wrote the following in- dorsement on the applications:
 "These convicts have suffered more than nine months imprisonment under their sentence. I am bound to assume that they were guilty of an onense, its character and in the commission of which they aided and encouraged an unlawful defiance of authority which threatened the most distressing consequences. am convinced however, that these men are not criminals, but laboring men swept into violation of law by yielding to the council of disorders Others beside them selves are suffering humiliation and de- privation on account of their wrong do- ings; and I am led to believe that the purpose of punishment SD far as the effect on the prisoners Is concerned have been fully accomplished. l am also convinced that the imprisonment already suffered by these prisoners will be ample warning to the thousands equally guilty. though unpunished, and to those who may be hereafter tempted, that the laws enacted to secure peace and order must be obey ed."
