government steamers Lautaro and

the former military governor OF this
district, who was killed in the engage

Lautaro trying to induce the chief en-
gineer of that vessel to put TO sea i'm
mediately. This the latter declined to
do on the ground that 1T would be inn
prudent with only himself. blacksmith
and three fremen in his department.
While discussing this point. the first shot
from the revolutionary gunboat Padilla
struck the Lautaro.
! The Padilla was painted white. She
was steaming due west with the suns
rays directly astern of her. Her crew
and officers could see clearly ahead of
their vessel. while, owing TO the suns
dazzling brightness, the Padilla herself
was not seen from the Lautaro until she
was within 400 yards of that ship.
There were about $50 soldiers on board
the Lautaro and Immediately the first
shot was fired from the Padilla, STAN
pede occurred among them. But General
Alban. retaining his composure, made the
captain of the Lautaro take charge of the
guns which had been mounted on that
vessel. He supervised everything HIM
self until ne was struck by the bullet
that killed him. The captain was wound
ed in the leg.
The Padilla had several of her crew
killed or wounded and is believed TO have
been much disabled

The injunction applied for was granted
to the company reversing the decision
of Judge Clements in the district
court. No city employe can be pald
under this order, the court virtually
ruling that the city is in involuntary
bankruptcy until it has paid the water
rents and interest due the company,
amounting to about 500, 900.
Judye Clements decided that the city
could pay necessary expenses, but
could not incur addition al debts. This
is in line with previous decisions on
the question. Now the higher court
holds that the amount due the water
company is unpaid, later debts cannot
be legally paid The water fight now

There were rumors of tampering

While no blame is attached to the rail

that the most blame belongs to the

to work fer more than eighteen hours
