SOUTH AMERICAN DREIBUND.

Chill, Argentine, and Peru Fixing Up q
Scheme to Divide Bolivia.
VALPARAISO, Chill, Nov. 13. "A plan
for a dreibund of Chill, Peru and Argen.
tina is in existence, which, if adopted
by the three governments, will wipe
Bolivia off the South American map,
Chill, Peru and Argentina dividing her
territory.
Startling as this statement is there
are many who are inclined to give it
credence. Without q doubt some inter-
national step Of importance is under
contemplation. Chill and Peru have
become entangled with Bolivia and
what the result will be no Ole can tell.
The demands Of the alarmists for an
explanation from the government it is
generally believed are justified.
