tHVEUR EQCITAIILE ASSESSJir.NT,
The question of equitable assess
ment Is beginning to agitato tho minds
of many people throughout tho county
ilnce the Cakbon Advocate called nt
tontlon to the matter a few weeks ago
And showed that farmers In the lower
nd of Carbon county are taxed just
as high for cultivated land ns coal
companlos aro for pricoloss coal lands
in tho upper end of Carbon county.
Just think of a farmer In Franklin
township having his laud rated nt 871
an ncro when coal operators havo lands
assessed at a little moro than again
that much per ncro when they are
legitimately worth ten, twenty, thirty
even forty or fifty times ns much, but
then it would be almost as much ns n
poor assessor's life would bo worth to
get down any way near solid bottom
the coal companies would swoop down
on him and with their usual greed and
Tictousness devour what hadn't been
frightened out of existence by their
menacing looks. We call uttontlon to
this now because wo bcliovo it tho
proper time. Our county commission
era should fortify thomselvos and
(trenously resist tho elforts of corpor
atlon lawyors and lick spittles to havo
tho present assessment lowered. In
looking over tho books of assessors
returned from tho coal laud districts
we find only one fault, and that Is that
corporation property has not been
rated quite high enough. We rccog
nlie the necessity of corporations but
ire don't believe that they should havo
any privileges not enjoyed by all the
people. They havo never paid their
full sharo of taxes in the county and
uethlnk it is about time now that
they did. Now is tho time to inaugu
rate tho reform, and our ablo and in
telligent board of county commission
rs can do much to bring It about by
maintaining a stiff upporllp nnd con.
testing any and every effort made by
the coal companlos to havo tho already
TOO tow assessment reduced still far
ther.

Washington. Jan. 135. The following is
President Ilftiripon'B message on the Chilian
situation sent to congress.
To the Senate and House of Kepresentatl . es:
In my annual metseage, delivered to congTcsa
at the beginning of the present session, after a
brief statement of the facte then In tho pos
session of tula government touching the as
sault. In the streets ot Valparaiso, umii, upon
tte Bailors of the United States stcamsldp Bal
timore on the erening of the IGth of October
last. I said:
'Thiscovernment is now awaiting the re
sult of an Investigation, which has been con
ducted by the criminal court at Valparaiso. It
is reported unofficially tuat mo investigation
la about completed, and it is expected that the
result will eoon be communicated to this gov
ernment, together with some adequate mid
satisfactory response to tho note by which the
attention of Chili was called to this incident.
If these just expectations should be disap
pointed or further needless delay intervene, I
will, by a epeclal message, bring the matter
again to tho attention of congress for such
action as may be necessary."
The Time II aa Come.
In my opinion the time haa now come when
I should lay before the congress and the conn
try the correspondence between this govern
ment and the government of Chill from the
time of the breaking out of the revolution
against Balmaccda, together with all other
facts in the possession of the executive depart
ment relating to this matter. The diplomat fo
correspondence Is herewith transmitted, to
gether with some correspondence between the
naval officers for the time in command tn
Chilian waters and the secretary of tho navy,
and also the evidence taken at t be Mare Island
nAvy yard since the arrival of the Baltimore
at San Francisco. I do not deem It neccetsary
In this communication to attempt any full
analysis of the correspondence or of the evl
dence. A brief restatement of the Interna
tional questions Involved and of the reasons
why the responses of tho Chilian government
are unsatisfactory is all that I devin neces
sary.
L.gan uas maiie iso jtiuiaite.
It may be well at the outset to say that.
whatever may have been said In this country
or tn Chill in criticism ol air. Egan, our minis
ter at Santiago, the true history of this excit
ing period In Chilian affairs, from tho out
break of the revolution uutll this time, dis
closes no act on the part of Mr. Kgan
unworthy of his position or that could Justly
be the occasion of serious animadversion or
criticism. He has, I think, on the whole, borne
himself lu very trying circumstances with
dignity, discretion and courage, and has con
ducted the correspondence with ability, cour
tesy and fairness.
It is worth while also at the beginning to say
that the right of Mr. Kgan to give shelter In
the legation to certain adherents of the Bal
maeoda government who applied to him for
asylum has not been denied by the Chilian
authorities, nor has any demand been made
for the surrcuderof theso refugees. That there
waa urgent need of as) 1pm is shown by Mr.
Egan's note of Aug. 24, 1891, describing the dis
orders that prevailed in Santiago, and by the
evidence of Captain Schley as to the pillage
and violence that prevailed at Valparaiso.
The correspondence diacloeee, however, that
the request of Mr. Egan for a safe conduct
from the country In behalf of these refugees
was dented.
Insulting Tollce Surveillance.
The precedents cited by him in the corre
spondence, particularly the cose of the revolu
tion In Peru fu 1965, did not leave the Chilian
government In a position to deny the right of
asylum to political refugees, and seemed very
clearly to support Mr. Euan's contention that
a safe conduct to neutral territory wasanecos-
sary ana acknowledge! incident ol tne asy
lum. These refugees have ery recently, with
out formal safe conduct, but by the acquies
cence of the Chilian authorities, been placed
on board the Yorktown, and are now belog
conveyed to Callao, Feru.
This Incident might be considered wholly
i lotted but for the disrespect manifested to
ward this government by the close and offen
sive police surveillance of the legation prem
ises which was maintained during most of the
period of tho stay of the refugees therein.
After the date of my annual message and up
to the time of the transfer of the refugees to
theVorktowu the legation premises seem to
Lave been surrounded by police in uniform
ratM by virtu of that general Invitation
which nations are held to extend to the war
vteeels of other (towors with whlmi they have
friendly relation-. ThU lnvltatkm, I think,
must be held ordinarily to embrace the privi
lege of eurh communication with the shore aa
is reamnablo, neoeasary aud proper for the
comfort and convenience of the officers and
men of such veeK
Cautaln Schley test I flea that when his Teasel
returned to Valparaiso, on Sept. H, the city
officers, aa is customary, extended the hospital
it lee ot the city to Lis o ulcers ana crew, it is
not claimed that every personal collision or
Injury in which a sailor or officer of such naval
vessel visiting the shore may be Involved raises
an international question, bnt I am clearly of
the opinion that where such sailors or officers
aro assaulted by a resident populace, animated
by hostility to the government whose uniform
the sailors and officers wear and In resentment
of acts dono by their government, not by
them, their nation must take notice of the
event as one involving an Infraction of Its
rights and dignity; not in a secondary way, aa
whero a cltfxen U Injured and presents his
claim through his own government, but In a
primary way, precisely as if Its minister or
consul or the flag itself has been the object of
the same character of assault.
An Intertmllnnal Affront.
The officers and sailors of the Baltimore
were In the harbor of Valparaiso under tho
orders of their government not by their own
choice. They were on shore by the implied tn
v I tat Ion of the government of Chill, aud with
the approval of their commanding officer, and
it does not distinguish their case from that of
a consul that hi stay Is more irmannt or
that lie iioiu t he ci press invitation oi tne
local government to Justify his longer resi
dence. Nor does It nlTect the question that the
Injury was the act of a mob. if there had
been no participation by the police or military
In this cruel work nnd no neglect on thetrpart
to extend protection, the case will stltl be one,
In my opinion, when Its extent and character
are considered Involving International rights.
Tho Incidents of the Adair.
The Incidents of the affair are briefly a fol

commanding the United States steamship Bal
timore, gave shore leave to 117 petty officers
and tailors of hta t-hip. These men left the
ship atiout WD p. ra No incident of violence
occurred, none of our men ere arrested, no
complaint was lodged against them, nor did
any collision or outbreak occur until about 6
o'clock p. m. Captain Hehley slates that he
was hltimelf on shore and about the streets of
the city until fi:D0 p. m , that ho met very many
of his men who were upon leave, that ihey
were sober aud conducting themselves with
propriety, saluting Chilians and other officers
as they met tliem. Other officers of the ship
and Captain Jenkins, of the merchant ship
Keweenaw, corroborate Captain Schley as to
the general fobrIet nnd good behavior of our
men.
Tho Slaters ;f Charily at the hotpltal to
which our wounded men were taken, when In
quired of, stated that they were tnber when
received. If the situation had been otherwise,
we must hellcv e that the Chilian police author
ities would have niado arrests.
About C p. in. the assault began, and It is I
remarkable that the investigation by the Judgo j
of crimes, though so protracted, doe- not en
able him to glv e any more satisfactory account
of its origin than Is found in the statement
that it began between drunken sailors. Re
peatedly fa the correspondence it Is asserted
that It was impossible to learn the precise cause
of the riot. The minister of foreign affairs,
Matta, in his telegram to Mr. Montt, under
date Dec. 31, states that the quarrel began be
tween two sailors In a tavern and waa con
tinued In the street, persons who were passing
joining in it.
How the right llegau.
The testimony of Talbot, an apprentice who
was with ltiggin, Is that the outbreak in which
they were involved began by a Chilian sailor
Bplttlng Id tho face of Talbot, which was re
sented by a knockdown. It appears that
ltiggin and Tat bo t were at the time unaccom
panied by asy others of their shipmates.
Three two men were Immediately beset by a
crowd of Chilian citizens and sailors, through
which they broke their way to a street car and
entered it for safety. They were pursued,
driven from the car and Higgln was so seri
ous) beaten that he fell in the street appar
ently dead. There is nothing in the report of
the Chilian investigation made to us that seri
ously impeaches this testimony.
It appears from Chilian sources that almost
Instantly, with a suddenness that strongly Im
plies meditation and preparation, a mob, stated
Ly the police authorities at one time to num.
bcr2,0Uu and at another 1,000, was engaged in
the assault upon our sailors, who are repre
sented as resisting "with stones, clubs and
rlght arms." The report of the Intendente of
tit. 30 states that the fight began at fl p. m. in
,hreo streets, which are named, that informa
tion w as received at the lntcndencia at 0.15 and
that the police arrived on the scene at 6 JO, a
full half hour after the assault began. At
that timo, he says, a mob of 2,000 men had
collected, and that for several squares there
waa the appearance of a "real battlefield."
Forced to Flee fur Their Lives.
Tho scene at this point Is very graphically
t before us by the Chilian testimony. The
and police agents or detectives In citizens
drc&s who offensively scrutinised persons en
tering or leaving the legation, and on one or
more occasions arrested members of the min
ister's family.
Commander Evans, who by my direction
ucently visited Mr. Kgan at Santiago, in his
Ulegrain to the navy department described
American sailors, who, after so long an exam
ination, have not been found guilty of any
breach of the peace, so far as tho Chilian au
thorities are able to discover, unarmed and
defenseless, are fleeing for their lives, pursued
by overwhelming numbers, and fighting only
to aid their own escape from death or to suc
cor Borne mate whose life Is In greater peril.
Eighteen of them are brutally b tabbed and
beaten, while one Chilian seems, from the
report, to have suffered some Injury; but how
serious or with what character of weapon, or
whether by a missile thrown by our men or
by some of his fellow rioters. Is notascertalned.
The rrctense that our men were fighting
"with stones, clubs nnd bright arms" Is, in
view of these facts. Incredible. It is further
refuted by tho fact that our prisoners, when
searched, were absolutely without arms, only
seven penknives being found In the possession
of the men arretted, while there were received
by our men more tftat thirty stab wounds,
every one of which was inflicted In the back,
and almost every contused wound waa In the
back or back of tho head. The evidence of the
ship's officer of the day Is that even tho Jack
knives of the mc.n were taken from them be
fore leaving the thin.
As to the brutal nature of the treatment re
ceived by our meu. the foltowlng extract from
the account given of the affair by La 1'atria,
newspaper, of Valparaiso, of Oct. 17, cannot
bo regarded as too friendly;
Treated with Incredible llrnUlity.
"The Yankees, as soon as their pursuers gave
chase, went by way of the Calle del Arsenal
toward the city car station. In tho presence
of an ordinary number of citizens, among
whom were some bailors, the North Americans
took seats In the street car toeBcapo from the
stones which the Chilians threw at them. It
was believed for an Instant that the North
Americans had saved themselves from popular
fury, but such was not the case.
"Scarcely had the car begun to move when a
crovfd gathered around and stopped Its prog
ress. Under these circumstances, and with
out any cessation of the howling and throwing
of stonea at the North Americans, the conduc
tor entered the car, and, seeing the risk of the
situation to tho vehicle, ordered them to get
out. At the Instant the sailors left the car, in
the midst of a hall of Hones, the said conduc-
tor received a stone blow on the head. One of
the Yankee sailors managed to escape In the
i direction of the Plaza Whwlrlcht. but tho
other was felled to the ground by a stone, j
I .Managing to raise btmseli from the grouna
wnerouelay, be staggered In an opposito cu
rectlon from the station. In front of the house
of Senor Maxslnl he was again wounded, fall
ing then senseless and breathless."
Our Sailors Did No Wrong,
No amount of evasion or subterfuge is able
to cloud our clear version of this brutal work.
It should he noticed in this connection that the
American sailors arrestod, after an examina
tion were, during the four dajs following the
arrest, every one discharged, no charge of any
breach of the peace or other criminal conduct
having been sustained against a single one of
them.
The Judge of crimes, roster. In a note to the
Intendente under date of Oct. 32 before the
dispatch from this government of the follow
ing day, which aroused the authorities of Chill
to a better sense of the gravity of the affair
says, "Having presided temporarily over this
court in regard to the seamen of the United
btates cruiser Haiti more, who have been tried
on account of the deplorable conduct which
wounded in the honpttals. The son of a Chilian
army officer of high rank was under his care
and when tbe father discovered It he flew Into
apaeelonand said he would rather hart hi
son die than have Americans touch him, and
at once had him removed from the ward. This
feeling Is not well concealed In the dispatches
of the foreign office, and had quite open ex
pression In the disrespectful treatment of the
American legation. The Chilian boatmen In
the bay refused, even for largeoffersof money,
to return our Bailors, who crowded the Mola,
to their ships when they were endeavoring to
escape from the city on the night of tbe assault.
The market boats of the Haiti moro were
threatened, and even quite recently the gig of
Commander Evans, of the Yorktown, was
stoned while walling for him at the Mole.
The Attack Was Premeditated.
The evidence of our sailors clearly shows
that the attack was expected by tho Chilian
people, that threats had been made against our
men, and in one case, somewhat early in the
afternoon, the keeper of one house, into which
some of our men had gone, closed his establish
ment In anticipation of the attack, which he
advbed them w onld be made upon them when
darkness camo on.
In a report of Captain Schley to tho navy de
partment, he says:
MIn the only Interview that I had with Judge
Foster, who Is investigating the case relative
to the disturbance, before ho was aware of tho
entire gravity of the matter, he Informed me
that the assault upon my men was the outcome
of hatred for our people among the lower
classes, becauso they thought we had sympa
thized with the Halinaccda government on ac
count of the Itata matter, whether with rea
son or without, he could not of course admit,
but such he thought waa the explanation of
the assault at that time."
Several of our men sought security from the
mob by such complete or partial changes in
their dreea as would conceal the fact of their
being seamen of the Baltimore and found it
then possible to walk the streets without mo
lestation. The Attack Was Aimed ut the Nation.
These lucideats conclusively establish that
the attack waa upon the uniform upon the
nationality and not upon tho men. The origin
ta this feeling 1$ probably found in the refusal
of this government to give recognition to the
Congressional nartv before It had established
Itself, in the seizure of the Itata for an al
leged violation of Ihe neutrality law. In the
rable Incident and in the chargo that Admiral
Brown conveyed Information to Valparaiso of
the landing at Qulutcro.
It Is not my purpose to enter here any de
fense of the action of this government In these
matters. It is enough for the present purpose
to say that If there was any breach of interna
tional comity or duty on our part it should
have been made the subject of official com
plaint through diplomatic channels, or of
reprisals for which a fnll responsibility
was assumed. We cannot consent that
these incidents and these perversions of the
truth shall bo med to excite a murderous at
tack upon our unoffending sailors and tho
government of Chill go acquitted of responsi
bility. In fact the conduct of this govern
ment during the war in Chili pursued those
lines of International duty which we had so
strongly Insisted upon on the part of other na
tions when this country was In the throes of
active conflict.
We continued the established diplomatic re
lations with the government in power until It
was overthrown and promptly and cordially
recognized the new government when it was
established. The good offices of this govern
ment were offered to bring about a peaceful
adjustment, and the Interposition of Mr. Egan
to mitigate severities and to shelter adherents
of the Congressional r-artr were effective and
frequent. The charge against Admiral Brown
Is too base to gain credence with any one who
knows his high personal and professional char
acter.
Several Distinct Assaults.
Referring to the evidence of our sailors, I
think It Is shown that there wero several dis
tinct assaults, and so nearly simultaneous
to show that they did not spread from one
point, A presH summary of the report of The
local snows that the evidence or tne unman
officials and others was In conflict as to the
placo of the orlglu, several places being named
by different witnesses as the locality where
the first outbreak occurred. This, it correctly
reported, shows that there were several dis
tinct outbreaks and so nearly at the sanio time
as to cause this confusion.
The La Patria in the same Issue, from which
I have already quoted, after describing the
killing of Itlgglnand the fight, which frornthat
point extended to the Mole, says:
"At the same time In other streets of the
port the Yankee sailors fought fiercely with the
people of the town, who believed to see in them
incarnato enemies of the Chilian navy."
Captain JenUlns' Testimony.
The testimony of Captain Jenkins, of the
American merchant ship Keweenaw.wbichhad
gono to Valparaiso for repairs audwhovavisa
witness of some part of tbe assault upon tho
crew of tho Baltimore, Is strongly corrobora
tive of the testimony of our own sailors, when
he says that he saw Chilian sentries drive back
a seaman seeking shelter from a mob that was
pursuing him. The officers and men of Cap
tain Jenkins' ship furnish the most conclusive
testimony as to the indignities which were
practiced toward Americans in Valparaiso.
When American sailors, even of merchant
ships, can only secure their safoty by denying
their nationality, It must be timo to readjust
our relations with a government that permits
such demonstrations.
nmnstertn am Capital; on the nib nit. This
dispatch was not officially communtratcd to
this government but as Mr. Montt was di
rected to translate it and to give it to the pree
ot this country, it seemed to me that It could
not pass without official nu&e.
It was not only undiplomatic, bnt grossly In
sulting to our naval officers and to tbe execu
tive department, as it directly imputed un
truth and insincerity to the reports of naval
officers and to the official communications
made bv tha executive department to con
gress. It will be observed that I have notified
the Chilian government that unices this note
ta at once withdrawn and an apology as public
as the offence made, t will terminate diplo
matic relations.
The request for the recall of Mr. Egan, npon
the ground that lie was not persona grata was
unaccompanied by any suggestion that could
properly be used la support of It, and I infer
that the request Is based upon official acts of
Mr. Egan which have received the approval of
this government. But, however mai may ue,
I could not consent to consider such a ques
tion until It had first been settled whether our
correspond ence with Chill could be conducted
upon a basis of mutual respect.
Our Demands Should lie Enforced.
In submitting these papers to congress for
that grave and patriotic consideration which
the questions Involved demand, I desire to say
that I am of the opinion that the demands
made of Chill by this government should be
adhered to and enforced. If the dignity as
well as tbefrreetlge and Influence of the United
States are not to be wholly sacrificed we should
protect those who in foreign ports display the
flag or wear the colors of this government
against Insult, brutality and death, inflicted in
resentment of the acts of their government
and not for any fault of their own.
It has been my desire In every way to culti
vate friendly and Intlmato relations with all
the governments of this hemisphere. We do
not covet their territory. Tfe desire their
peace and prosperity. We look for no advan
tage In our relations with them except to in
crease exchanges of commerce upon a basis of
mutual benefit. We regret every civil contest
that disturbs their peace and paralyzes their
development, and are always ready to give our
good oftlces for the restoration of peace.
It must, however, be understood that this
government, while exercising the utmost for
bearance toward weaker powers, will extend
Its strong and adequate protection to Its citi
zens, to its officers and to Its humblest sailors,
when made the victims of wantonness and
cruelty in resentment not of their personal
misconduct, but of the official acts of their
government.
Tho Treatment of Patrick Shields,
Unon information received that Patrick
Shields, an Irishman, nnd probably a British
subject, but at the time a fireman ot the
American steamer Keweenaw in the harbor
of Valparaiso for repairs, had been subjected
to personal Injuries in that city largely by the
police, I directed the attorney general to
cauBO the evidence of the officers and crew of
that vessel to be taken upon Its arrival In San
Francisco, and that testimony is also here
with tranmlttted.
The brutality and even savagery of the
treatment of the seamen by the Chilian police
would be Incredible If the evidence of Shields
waa not supported by other direct testimony
and by the distressing condition ot the man
himself when he was finally able to reach his
vessel. The captain of the vessel aays, "He
came back a wreck; black from his neck to his
hips from beating; weak and stupid, and is
still in a kind of a paralyzed condition, and
has never been able to do duty since."
Left for Congressional Action.
A claim for reparation has been made In bo
half of this man, for, while he waa not a citi
zen of the United Statca, the doctrlno held by
us, as expressed in the consular regulations. Is:
"The principles which are maintained by this
government In regard to the protection aa dis
tinguished from the relief of seamen are well
settled. It is held that the circumstances that
the vessel in American U evidence that the
seamen on board are such, and In every regu
larly documented merchant vessel the crew
will find their protection In the flag that covers
: them."
I have as yet received no reply to our note
of the ?let Inst., but In my opinion I ought not
to delay longer to bilng these matters to the
attention or congress lor sucn action as may
bo deemed appropriate.

Harris Said Helen's Mother
Never Told Him.
HE BLAMED MRS. POTTS,
Sensational Testimony at the Great Tel
soolng Trial by Dr. Mapei Harrtl'
Denial Hi at lie Ever Dragged
About Ills Conquests.
New York, Jon. SO. The trial of CariyU
W. Ilarri, charged with administering to
his young and beautiful school wife, Helta
Keilson Potts, a fatal dose of morphine, bid
fair to go down in history aa one) of Xho
moat famous in the annals of New Torfc
criminal courts.
The eighth day In tho trial began Monday
before Recorder Smyth and a jury la gtn
era! sessions, and the prosecution is ft yt
far from tho end of the work of weaving
about the young medical student tha net ot
circumstantial evidence that they claim wffl
leave no weakened meeli through which ha
can break to aaf ety.
Second Section of the Case.
Last week saw what might be termed tha
first section of the case of the people pre
sented. Monday began tho second section
of the case.
Tbe chief part of tho second section will
lo tho attempt to show more clearly the
motive which Harris had for tho crime ha
Is alleged to have committed, and also tha
testimony of the medical experts, whoea
opinions, botn sides expect, will have con
sidorablo influence with the jury.
The proceeding! were opened with Byron
V. Thompson on the witness stand. He it
a physician, and lives at 00 west Sixty-first
street, this city.
lie testified that he saw Helen Totta on
Doc, 14, 1S39. at 110 West Sixty-third street.
Ho treated her as a physician on two occa
sions. Dr. Tompkins examined her heart
ana iouna it perfectly normal.
Harris Blamed the Mother,
Dr. James J. Manes, who is attached to
the New York hospital aa a surgeon, was
sworn, and testified that he knew Carlyle
Harris, having attended college with him.
He attended lectures on morphine poisoning
at that timo with the defendant. At the
time of Helen Pott's death he read of It in
the newspapers.
He saw Harris withiu a day or two of tho
death. Ho (Harris) said at tlie time that he
believed the girl's death was wholly due to
her mother. Mrs. Potts, the defendant eaid,
knew that her daughter Buffered from heart
disease and did not tell him of It when he
prescribed for Helen. This statement
caused a wild sensation.
Harris Tower Over Women.
Harris has a soft, rather musical voice,
and he is n natural conversationalist. He
uses the most refined English, the proper
word being always ready when wanted. In
a talk about the case to a rcperter he said:
I was never more surprised in my life
than when Dr. Treverton and young Oliver,
of Scranton, swore that I bragged about my
power over young women.
"Can any one believe that in the forty
eight hours I was in Scranton I would take
into my confidence two men whom I had
never met before t Two men, one the uncle
of my wife, end the other her lover, who.
was jealous of me.
"The Jury is made up of intelligent cJti
eens. business men of experience, and 1
of them believes these
MaJ treated by the lollce.
As to the participation of the police the evi
dence of our sailors shows that our men were
struck and beaten by police officers before and
after arrest, and that ono at least was dragged
with a lasso about his nock by a mounted po
liceman. That the death of Hlggin waa the
result of a rifle shot, fired by a policeman or
soldier on duty, is shown directly by the testi
mony ot Johnson, in whoso arms he was at the
time, and by the evidence of Charles Langen,
an American sailor not then a member of the
Baltimore's crew, who stood close by and saw
the transaction.
The Chilian authorities do not pretend to
fix the responsibility of thU shot upon any par
ticular person, but avow their inability to as
certain who fired it further than that It waa
fired from a crowd. The character of the
wound, as described by one of the surgeons of
the Baltimore, clearly supports his opinion
that It was made by a rifle ball, the orifice of
exit being as much as an lncn or an men and
a Quarter in width. When shot the poor fel
low waa unconscious and in the arms of a
comrade, who was endeavoring to carry him
to a neighboring drug store for treatment.
The story of the police, that Incoming up the
street they passed these men and left them
behind them, Is Inconsistent with their own
statement as to the direction of their approach
and with their duty to protect them, and Is
clearly disproved. In fact, ltiggin was not be
hind, but in front of the advancing force, and
waa not standing in the crowd, but was uncon
scious and supported In the arms of Johnson
when he was snot.
No Expressions of Ilegret.
The communications of the Chilian govern
ment In relation to this cruel and disastrous
attack upon our men, as will appear from the
correspondence, have not in any degree taken
the form of amity and satisfactory expression
of regret, much lees of apology. The event
was of so serious a character that, if the In
juries suffered by our men had been wholly
the result of an accident in a Chilian port, the
Incident waa grave enough to have called for
some public expression of sympathy and re
gret from tho local authorities.
It Is not enough to say that the affair was
lamentable, for humanity would require that
expression, even If the beating and killing of
our men had been Justifiable. It is not enough
to say that the tmident is regretted, coupled
with tbe stateinut that the affair was not ot
an unusual i tiiraeterlu ports where the for
eign sailor an accustomed to meet. It is not
for a generous and sincere government to seek
for words of small or equivocal meaning in
which to convey to a friendly power an apology
for an offense so atrocious as this.
In the case of the assault by a mob In Now
Orleans upon the Spanish consulate In 1851,
Mr. WeUter wrote to the Spanish minister,
Mr. CaJderon, that tbe acts complained of vv ere
"a disgraceful and flagrant breach of duty and
propriety, " and that "his government deplores
them as deeply u Minister Calderon aud his
government could possibly do; that "these
acts have caused tha president great pain, and
he thinks a proper acknowledgment is due to
her majesty's government.M
He invited the Spanish consul to return to
his post, guaranteeing protection, and olfered
to salute tne panin nag u tne consul snouta
The Mostage In Congress.
Wasuingtox, Jan. 25. The president's
message on Chilian matters was read in the
senate and at its conclusion referred to the
foreign affairs committee. The senate (out
of respect to the late Judge Bradley) ad
journed until Tuesday.
Speaker Lrisp presided in the house and
was the recipient or many congratulation,
The president's message on Chilian mat
ters was read, and at its conclusion heartily
applauded by both Blues, it was oppropn
ately referred.
Immediately upon tho reference of the
message and accompanying documents on
Chilian matters to the house committee on
foreign affairs, that committee was called
togeiner.
Cyrus tV. Tlcld Better.
New York, Jan. CO. Cyrus W. Field was
better in the morning, though stm weak,
and sustained by liquid foods administered
every two hours. The head trouble, which
was considered the most serious manifesta
tion, has pretty much passed away. Mr.
Field worries a great deal about his son, Ed
ward M. Held, who is in Ludlow Btreet jail.
Justice Hradley's Funeral.
Newark, N. J., Jan. 20. Funeral services
of a simple character were held over the
body of the late Justice Bradley at his resi
dence in Washington, which were attended
by members of the cabinet, senators, mem
bers of the Bupreme court and others. The
remains were then shipped to Newark,
whence the interment took place today.
