German Soldiers Jubilant, Berri, Sept. 9.—The speach of Chancellor Caprivi reiterating aseur- ances of peace not had much effect upon the public mind in view of the activity of military [uparations.

The President Calls a Hasty Cabi- net Meeting, PROBABLY OONOERNING CHILE. Minister Egan's Many Dispatches, Some of Them in Cipher, Lead to the Belief That There Is Some thing Wrong—-The Officials Ex. tremely Reticent, WasmixaroN, Sept. 20. — There was an important conference at the White House yesterday between President Har- rison, Secretary Tracy, Assistant Secre- tary of Btate Wharton, General J. W, Foster and Commodore Ramsey. Seco- tary Tracy had been called from New ork two weeks earlier than he ex- sted to return, and he went at once to White House on bis arrival. The conference lasted neariy three hours, and Secretaries Tracy and Whar- ton remained with the president for some time dfter. Naturally the circum- stances gave rise te all sorts of rumors, and as the White House, state and nav partment officials refused to oy about the conference or make any state- ment regarding i$, many sensational re- ports were sent out to papers as to the nature of the cabinet meeting. Egan's Many Dispatches, The most plausible ex planation of the affair is that the meeting was called to discuss the situation in Chile. For the last day or two Minister Egan has been communicating with the state depart- ment with a frequency that was as- tounding compare with his former si- lence. he cables have been long as well as numerous, and following — was a long cipher dispatch received by the navy department yesterday from Chile. Hitherto the dispatches received by the navy department have not been in cipher, and yesterday's telegram caused | comment. The account published of the junta's action in arresting Ameri. cans in Bantiago and the police espion- e around the American legation, and Mr. Egan's protest, are perhaps subjects which the United Btates authorities in Chile have called to the attention of the officials here, and no doubt formed a large part of topics before the conference. The OfMicials Reticent, / RBecretary Tracy refused to discuss the subject of the conference, but he made the statement that the situation in Chile was not alarming, and the department would send no more ships there, Others who were at the conference are quite as reticent as Becretary Tracy about is One of these admitted, however, that there was nothing said or done at the conference that could be [given to the public without injury to the diplomatic aspects of the matter, What caused the hasty summons they refused to ad- mis. The only United States vessel in Chile is the Baltimore. The San Francisco is on her way home. The advisability of sending other vessels was discussed, and Commodore Ramsay, chief of the bureau of navigation, who has charge of the movement of vessels, was present for the purpose of giving his opinion, In response to an inguiry relative to the reports that a revolt had broken out among the troops at Bantiago Senor Montt, the Chilean Congressional envo at Washington, has received a dis 4 from Senor Matta, the minister of for- eign aifairs, saying that ‘Peace has not been nor will it be disturbed, least of all by military revolts.” There was no lusion whatever to the reported arrest of Americans In Santiago, or of any action tended to harass Minister Egan. Dr. Montt, without knowing whether any Americans have been arrested, dis- credits any and all reports to the effect that his government has or will treat men of any nationality in Baatiago harshly or unfairly. NEWARK'S MURDERER DEAD. His Dying Declaration That It Was a Double Suicide. Newark, N. J., Sept. 28. Ernest Lehmann, the young lover who pol- soned his sweetheart, Emma Buch, at ber home on Ashland street and then took a dose of a Paris green himself, bas defeated the law. He died on Sat- urday at 8t. Michael's hospital. Lehmann made an ante-mortem state ment to County Physician Wrightson, in which he persisted that Emma knew she was i poison. This, how- ever, does not carry conviction in face of the girl's dying statement. There is little doubt that it was a pre meditated and cold blooded murder. Lebmann had been heard to say that he had one ball for himself and one for Emma. Again, it Ims been found that Lehmann purchased the Paris green in Elizabeth. The funeral of the murdered girl took place Jestercay afternoon, and a great crowd viewed the remains. Emmons Blaine's New Position.
