THEY MAY YET
FIGHT 1T OUT
Strained Relations Between
Chile, Peru and Bolivia.
RANKING OF OLD SORE

Grievance of Peru Evidently Her De-
sire to Regain Provinces Which She
Lost as Result of Former War With
Neighbors.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-The state
department and various foreign repre-
sentatives in Washington have received
copies of a recent official statement OF
the minister of foreign affairs of Peru,
Senior DeOsma, making q vigorous re.
sponse to a circular note of the Chilian
foreign office, touching the strained re.
lations between Chill, Peru and Bolivia,
growing out of the war in which these
three countries participated. The de-
termined attitude of Peru is shown by
the minister's statement that the coun-
try will not abdicate one single iota
from the rights and expectancies to
which she is entitled under the treaties
made with Chilli.
Hatred Disavowed.
The minister says Peru desires to con.
vey to other countries the conviction
that she is exempt from hatred and
seeks only her rights In this negotia-
ton, and he appeals to the ''incontesti-
bic testimony of facts which he sets
forth at much length, as showing the
justice of Peru's position. He says that
repeated attempts were made for years
by the Peruvian foreign office to reach
an understanding with Chill for a vote
I as to the future of contested territory,
and, in order to remove every possibil-
ity for any new excuse on. the part Of
Chill, special funds were provided to
make payment of any indemnity that
might be awarded.
Agreement impossible.
Minister DeOsma says that. despite
these prolonged efforts, it has been inn
possible to reach any final agreement
under which the controversy would be
submitted to arbitration or would be
otherwise settled. In conclusion. the
minister says:
I'm the presence of the facts and pre-
cedents which have narrated. it would
be difficult to explain in what manner
the government of Chill could, without
loss to it's international prestige, main
tain, as at present, the controversy re-
specting Tacna and africa and the more
general one. of the Pacific. -
The document is exciting much inter-
est, as showing that Peru Is trying to
regain her lost provinces.

An Historic Table that Becomes Of
Public Interest.
1Gsdo by minneapolis Children, 1t Has Fol-
lowed the Oareerof VIM. Mckinley
With Strange Fortunately.

The South Side high school of Min
neapolis is the owner of an oak table
which has followed the career of Will
lam Mckinley for nine years. The
table was made in 1892 in the manuel
training department of the sc hool, and
presented to the national republican
convention held in Minneapolis that
year. MIR. Mckinley presided and used
the table. Mr.. Downey leaned upon
the table when he prophesied that Nc
Kinley would be elected president in
1896. 49,.
In 1896 the table was carried to St.
Louis, and was there used by Senator
Thurston, chairman of the republican
convention which nominated Mckinley.
In 1900 the table was taken to Phila-
delphia to the national republican con-
vention, and a second time was Will
lam Mckinley nominated over it. .
On each of these occasions silver
plate was bedded in the table to mark
the part it had taken in the political
history of the country. ..-.#
And now a fourth plate will be
added. The table was sent to Buffalo
A. part of the school exhibit from Min
neapolis, and President Milburn, OF
the Pan-American exposition, will be
asked to add the fourth plate, record
ing it's presence at the exposition when
Mckinley was assassinated.

Good Suggestion.

Van SAINT will suggest to the extra ses-

All the replies are of one tenor. Gov.

a clerk with the Andrew Schock Gro.

STAMFORD SHORT OF BEEF.
ArmOur's House Has Received None

STANFORD, Conn, Nov. 24.--Because
of the RAILROAD strike the local wholesale
branch of Armour & Co. was without
supply of beef today, for the first time in
its history. The concern has not received
an ounce of beef since the strike at Mott
Haven and what little it had on hand
was exhausted on Friday evening. The
strike has caused the house a heavy loss.
Swift & Co. received carload of beef
Just in time TO prevent a beef famine yes

ing, having passed that point before the
strike spread there. Since the arrival
of batch of cars with perishable freight
from the East last evening there has been
little doing here. Most of the freight
moved is manned by new men. There is
a disposition on the part of regular
freight gangs not TO handle any freight,
which amounts practically to a strike.
This disposition is said TO lie largely
responsible for the company's orders not
TO receive any more freight for ship
ment.

GNoLAHD's BORROWED ARMIES
Has Secured All Over Europe to Hire SOldiRra.

Has Secured All Over Europe to Hire
 Soldiers.
 This Is the first war Great Britain has fought against white enemies with. out buying foreigners to fight fo~ us. says London paper Until less than 6o years ago, when we had war on hand, W2 sent of to Germany all over Europe, ,. .zage ruen , fight TOT us. The men e. 55aged were most ly old soldiers, and were hired to fight until the war was Guished. In 1756 an invasion of Ensl:.1d Was feared, SC 6,O0O Hessians were hired to come and aefend these shores against the ex pected attack. These hirelings were paid at the British rate of pay, and fo, every man of them killed their king was paid so much per head. Even against the American colonsts He's sian troops were employed. No won- der our fellow-Englishmen were en> ragged at this shameless action. The landgrave of Hesse was paid S2,355,. V90 in Der cent stock for the Hes- slans lost in the war of independence This was the amount of $15O per man. The Irish rebellios of 179S was put down chiefly by Hessian hirellngs. In the long struggle with Napoleon we freely hired foreigners, but the bulk of the work was done by British sol. diers. Wellington found that he could not rely oD his mercenary gangs too much. In 1894 the Kings German le- zion" of 10000 men was formed Two years later the force was increased by 5000 men. Besides Germans from all the petty states, there were also en- listed French royalists expelled by Ma poieon, Corsicans, Greeks, Italians Turks, Portuguese, Belgians, Hungari- ans and Swiss. At Waterloo, Yelling. tons army of 67,000 was made up Of only 22,000 British, and the rest were Dutch, Brunswickers, Hanovertans and Nassaumen. When peace came in 1874 there were no less than 29.000 hired Foreigners forming corps in the British army. The Crimean war was the last time Britain had to go a-hiring sol- dIers. Thirty thousand men had been sent to the Crimea and more were wanted. So the government wept to parliament with bill authorizing the enlistment of 10000 Germans. 5000 Swiss and 5000 Italians, at British rates of pay.
