THE WAR CLOUD DISAPPEARS
The Dispute Between Chilli and Ar
gentina Settled.

Washington. December 26.-The Ar
day received a dispatch from the min
ister OF foreign affairs at Buenos Ayres,
announcing the satisfactory termina-
ton of the Chili-Argentine trouble, and
giving the basis of settlement. The
dispatch is as follows:
The pending incident with Chill
has been solved by agreement directly
with the government of hat country
nd in a satisfactory form. Chill gives
k%planation of the opening of roads
trough the disputed territory, and
bth governments promise to withdraw
le police forces which they have main
lined in the territory in controversy
|tuated near the inlet Of Ultima E,s-
era1za."
DIR. Garcia Merou expressed himself
5 highly gratified with the disappear
pee of the war cloud, and pointed our
hat the terms Of the settlement
bowed that Argentine's earnest desire
B maintain peace had led her to make
considerable sacrifice. By both with
drawing their police from that To-
Iality the government ownership Of the
Ultima ESperanZa territory becomes A
question for arbitration.
Santiago de Chilli. December 20. via
Galveston. Texas. December Pa pro-
rocol establishing a modus vivendi be-
tween Chill and Argentine. was signed
yesterday. The text will be given ia
i the public here and at Buenos Ayres
tomorrow. Friday. Public feeling is
satisfied and all is perfectly tranquil.
The Nacion says the arrangement
reached between Argentina and Chilli is
more of a triumph for common SESe
than a triumph for diplomacy.
The Pals says that delay in ending
the state of armed peace existing would
ruin Chill and retard Argentine prog
ress for twenty years.

ST. PAUL IL SINKING.

Much anxiety has been caused In
London by the discovery that the
foundations Of st. Pauls Cathedral are
sinking and that the great structure
has been cracked In many places. Som.
ers Clark. the architect who has charge
Of st. Paul's, In discussing the matter
recently, said the immense weight
resting upon the eight piers UNFOLDING
the dome has caused the foundations
under the DONE to settle more than
elsewhere. The settlement thus caus-
ed has broken the eight arches and tie
windows of the clerestory over them
In the nave Of the choir and the north
and south transepts. where they abut
on the dome piers in the same way.
The very great weight Of the wes-
tern towers has caused them to sink,
and In sinking they have cracked the
west front vertically through the great
, door. the windows above and the vault
ed ceiling of the portico. They have
also cracked the wall Of the chapel Ia
! the east"
| After mentioning the unequal distri-
button Of weight ms q cause OF the set
tlement Mr. Clarke expressed the opin-
Ion that the two underground railways
and the large sewers have affected the
foundations, He laid particular stress
upon the vibrations resulting from
passing trains.

SOURCE OF FALSE STATE
MBNTS.


The stories told are mainly false;
The differences are Tat the men who
made 1t possible for the American Tag
to wave over Hawaii, have somehow
been tIeacherous, now that they have
won their point, to principles for
which, during five 'perilous years. they
risked their lives and property. Thu
men who make these charges were
either then In hostile array against
Americanism on this soil or they we're
or the mainland waiting for chance
to do politics in some distant place
where they were unknown and where
they might make new start. The
Territorial administration which
stands between them and the spells,
they hate and fear but 1t is the kind
oi an administration which Theodore
Roosevelt. were he citizen OF Hawaii,
would support with vote and voice.
Pacific Commercial Advertiser.
Many of the stories circulated on tho
Mainland regarding Hawaii have been
and are false. No more magnificent
example can be furnished than the
wholesale condemnation and malicious
viliiCation Of Judge Humphreys hav-

followers of the Dole government and

Superintendent Boyd put the situa

people with renewed force. Additional
