NEW YORK. March 27.-Chile's
purpose 20 retain the provinces OF Tac'
ma and africa, Notwithstanding the pro-
tests of Peru and Bolivia, In formally
acknowledged In an officiai statement
OF the Chilean case communicated to
the United States and other powers,
says the Washington correspondent OF
the Herald. The announcement OF this
purpose IL coupled with charges OF
bad faith made by Chile against Peru
and Bolivia. These charges are coun.
ter to similar allegations made by the
two last named countries against
Chile.
Chile seeks TO prevent any interven.
tion on the part OF the United States
In the South American dispute. Peru
and Bolivia are utilizing every chan
mel to bring pressure to bear upon the
administration TO induce II to take ac-
tion. The president has definitely de-
cided, however, that he will not take
action unless all three powers request
II. In view OF the latest declaration
made by Chile II is apparent that she
will suffer no outside check In her pur'
pose to acquire definite sovereignty
over the provinces she has conrolled
since the war 20 years ago.

flaming oil swept down upon the little
village of Glengarden, N. j., while Its
Inhabitants were asleep this morning.

Railroad, An immense freight train
was coming east Mt $3.50 A, NJ. Il was
composed OF string OF coal cars, and
is tank cars. High above the village
the tracks of the railroad run along
the side Of a mountain. They descend
as they approach the village, but even

depot at steep incline.

ton. composed OF the coal cars, was
going at high rate of speed. and
none of its cars were jolted on the
track. The oil tanks on the runaway
section were hurled sideways across
the tracks, and the oil tank cars be-
hind were piled on top OF II In every
way. The first crash caused the oil
| In one OF the tanks to explode. and
ignite, and the terrific heat caused tne
other cars to explode. one after the
other. The incline running from the
depot down to the main street acted
as a sluice for the burning oil, and II
poured into the chief thoroughfare OF

free horses, cows and dogs In outbuild'
ings, but other unfortunate animals
could not be reached In time, and were
burned. Within FIVE minutes after the
tirst explosion the flowing river OF oil
had reached the Masonic Temple In
the heart of the village and ten min

oped In flames. Then building after

as the oil reached them. and within
half an hour an area of 400 feet square

long lire of FIRE that destroyed the ties
and bent and twisted the tracks. The
loss is estimated at from $4,000 tc

Devastating Power of Locusts.

A swarm OF these insects stopped the
advance OF Russian army. They
filled the air and blinded both officers
no orders. and even IL they had done so
the men could not have obeycd them.
The horses would not face them, and
they lay on the ground many inches
thick. Every man and horse In the
army was incrustcd with the insects,
and their clothing was literally eaten
Off the men as they stood helpless and
blinded The railways were useless,
ms the locusts covered the rails, and the
oil which eXudcd from their bodies
when crushed prevented the driving
wheels from biting" After they had
settled whole regiments were detached
for the purpose of trampling them TO
death. Trenches were dug across their
path and filled with burning Goals, but
the crowding swarms actually smother
ed the fire, so vast were their numbers
Even In "a little island like Cyprus in
one year one-tifth of the entire revenue
was spent In destroying the locusts,
and especially their eggs. When these
eggs are laid. they are lnclosed in n
horny envelope called pod" each
pod containing 81 eggs. In seven
months 1880 tons of pods were de-
stroycd Now, single ton of pods
contains G0,0O0,000 eggs. and yet, in
spite of this almost incredible destruc-
ton, the locusts are still n dreadful
plague and show little II any symptoms
of diminutlon I'm numbers.
