Wants Union to Offset Americas Inn
perialIstic Tendencies. 70
PARIS, June 21.-A sensational story
has reached this city from Buenos
Ayres, Argentina, TO the effect that
Chill, and several other of the Latin
American republics have become
alarmed at the powerful! position of
the United States. They fear that the
Imperialism that has taken possession
of the American people will lead them
INTO absorbing some Of the republics.
The plan as proposed by Chilli is that
nil shall unite in an American union,
and maintain in common such a navy
as will be able to offset that of the
United States. The plan is .fostered by
Chilli, and tits the intention of the
promoters OF the scheme that Chill
shall be at the head. TIE position of
Argentina is such that she has no in
tention OF considering the proposition
seriously, and the report says that If
any countries are fearful of absorption
by the United States it is not those of
South America, but Central America.
1t is suggested that the real fear of
Chill is that the United States will
cast a covetons eye at Terradel Fnego,
and various coal mines that are around
Cape Horn. that she may there main.
