washington, April 1.--Chiie's fail-

70 replace MI. Walker Martinez, who
aid not return here after the pan
American conference at Rio Janeiro
last summer, has caused much COM
ment. The neglect Of the Chilean
congress to appropriate sufficient
money 70 maintain the legation has
Been given as reason for leaving the
American mission In charge Of Alder
to Yoacham, secretary Of the legation.
But It has Just become known that
the real cause was hidden deep ID
Latin-American politics.
Chile decided 1t would be . good
idea to have an ambassador In WASH
iugton and steps were taken TO as
cover what the United States thought
about the proposed elevation OF the
Chilean representative to washington.
The suggestion that the Chilean en-.
yoy might be raised to ambassadorial
rank set all Latin-America on edge and
general movement was instituted
by the southern republics to head OH
such movement Argentina, being
unfriendly to Chile, was especially op,
posed to the plan, as Brazil and Chile
are always rated at allies and Argen-
tina did not want her two strongest
rivals to outstrip her in American rep
resentatlon. 1t has not been the pol.
10y Of the state department TO send
ambassadors to any country which
cannot be ranked as world power.
and when the hostility Of the rest Of
South America to such a change be
came known the United States DC
CIded that the question had better not

rates charged by the company, Col. H.
G. Clowry, president Of the Western
Unnon Telegraph Company, Sunday
night said:
"There has been nothing like gen
eral increase in rates by the telegraph
companies. A number Of special and
improbable rates have been increased
to the standard Of schedule rates.
These special rates were discrimina
tive against large number Of places
and were originally established BY
competing companies, which BY reason
thereof went into bankruptcy Most Of
the rates increased were twenty-five
cents for ten words rates. It costs at
least thirty cents each to handle such
messages for short distances at the
present time. The increase In the
cost Of telegraph materials has been
from rs to 100 per cent within the last
few years. In addition to the recent
increase Of the percent In the salaries
Of all managers and operators, there
has been for years past large and
steady increase In wages Of all class

out of the yards at Corvallis We'd
nesday at noon, but today had not
gone out of Albany. One carload
carries the college exhibit, which is
to be exceptionally fine this year, and
the other car carries the Benton
county fruit display. The fruit ex-
hlblt was largely made up of the
school fair display, and both car
loads are to be attractions at the

zoology is here to attach some labels
and is also on the anxious seat about
