At last it is pos ibie that the gossips around the State De artment who have been consumed with iriosity for Ion months will be satisfied regard to the relations of Minister Egan ith the administration on the one hand id with the Kepublio ot Chile on the her. Jlr. Egan is expected to present iself at the department -to-morrow, and oake explanations face to face that could .well be made in any other war. . good deal of surprise is expressed that Minister should have been so free with tongue the moment of his arrival at JTew rk. "When charges have been preferred linst an official of the Government it is stomary for that official to make his first xplanatious to his superiors in ofilce. At ne State Department this etiquette is held i high respect, its observance being re u i red more than in any other of the de artmentf, and Mr. Egau's really elaborate alysis of his course ior the benefit of the swspapers has caused the cold chills to inse up and down the vertebra? of the old Jicials ot the department, who have, with solemnity that is at times grotesque, en eaored to maintain a decorum in their lit 'e tuppenny department as profound, mys rious aud exclusive as that of any of the iplomatic machines of the countries across ie oceati. An Unusual Contempt for Custom. Mr. Euan's contempt for this superficial corum, as snowu in his interviews in the en York press, is decidedly refreshing, U it is probable that it is one of the sev- .al things for which he will be hauled over e coals by Secretary John AY. Foster. r. Foster has been something of a Minis- r himself in his day, and was never guilty talking too much at the wrong time, and is not likely to excuse such a breach of .plomatic or good manners in others now tat he is the boss ol Undiplomatic, service. Mr. Harrison, also, is a stickler for silence n the part of his official family, nd may -k exciting the blood of Mr. Ean by a ord of censure on this account. In his interviews Mr. Egan makes no ention of the fact that while he and the overnment of the United States still re- gnized the Ualmaceiian Government as e legal one of Chile, President Balmaceda id declared himsell dictator and maintained s position only by the assistance ot the ddiery, the peuple and the people's repre- ntatives in Congress being against him. here was at that time no government that iuld be recognized as such in Chile. The onressionalists had their capital at (uique, and the dictator had his capital at in tiago. A Place to Be Strictly XeutraL the most ordinary diplomacy would have Igested that the United States remaiu utral, recognizing neither side to the ntrovery until the decision of the ques- n by the fortunes of war or of arbitra- n. Instead of this course, which was .rsued by all the other foreign countries presented at Chile, this Government, ;rough the advice and representations of s Minister, recognized the Dictator as the chttul aud legal ruler and refused with tubs and insults to confer with or to notice any wav, even unofficially, the agents of ie Constitutionalists who demanded repre- ntative rule. Minister Ejan assured this Government sat the Congressional party, which he len denounced as "insurgents" and "revo tionists," was composed of the leaders of e rough and unprincipled class and that 1 tne good people were on the side of the ictator, whom he gently termed the President." There are letters in exist ice in this city in which Mr. Egan spoke the Congressionalists in the most con mntuoas terms, as a rabble which could it by auv possibility win. Egan IVrong In His Predictions. Unfortunately for Eian aud for the ad-1 inistration he represented the rabble won, ie agent of the rabhle who had been nored aud insulted by the State Depart ent was created Envoy Extraordinary id Minister Plenipotentiary from Chile to e United States and his relative, Don se Montt, placed at the head of the new overnment in Chile. Bjlmaceda com itted suicide. To recall all this is necessary to an under anding of the delicate matters which Mr. ;an will be a'ked to explain. What has it been told m regard to the influences at surrounded the conduct ol this adiuin tratinn in the Chilean allair would fill a g volume. It was charged that the friend less of this Goterncient to the dictator ip of Balmaceda was the result of a -omise of Balmaceda that if his Govern ent were recognized and were successful ! would grant this country valuable con ssions in the line of the nitrate trade. It is charged that Balmaceda promised Mr. gan that in case his rule survived, aided ' the partiality and friendship ot the nited btates, certain capitalists to whom rge sums were owing from the Chilean easury for building a railroad would be lid. Previous to this these capitalists bod ed for their mnney in vain. It was as rted that they maJe Mr. Egau's son their ent for the collection of the money about at time, when Balmaceda was promising jan everything. "What the Minister lias to Say. Mr. Egan says that tbe charges made amst him were due to the influence of "a nminent Democratic politician of New Drk." This is plainly a reference to Hon. illiam It. Grace. But it is a fact that ng before the band of Mr. Grace was ex .sed in the matter Mr. Pedro Montt and r. Julio Foster, the agent, and his secre ry from the Congressionalists, endeavored inform this Government that Mr. Egan is actuated by self interest in the part he aved in support of the failing fortunes of ilmaceda. Tliese grave assertions were made to the rrespondent of The Dispatch by the ents of the Congressional party soon ter their arrival here, and upon these arges Mr. Pedro Montt, after ne became inistcr from Chile, demanded the recall Mr. Egan. How much Mr. Grace bad do with it remains to be seen. This will recall also the extraordinary aner given by Minister Montt at a time ten the relations ot this Government and ile were decidedly strained and at which r. Grace and Secretary Blaine were both eseut. The reports of what was said and ne at that dinner have been so vague that is not worth the while to repeat tbem, t the hints that have been dropped here gest that when the whole truth is known will create almost as much gossip as any the phases of the Chilean affair. Patrick Is Now on the Warpath. Jlr. Egau seems to be on the warpath. 5 speaks fearlessly, if he is properly oted. It is possible that his presence here iy lead to some plain speaking on the part 1 of other people. Just how President Har rison has viewed the matter all along no one has been able to find out It is known that Mr. Egan has been given some pretty sharp aivice, but whether the censure by mail and by cable will be deemed sufficient, or whether there will be further friction, remains to be seen. Mr. Egan comes back much as Consul MeCreary came. Each was given a leave ol absence that he might come home and answer charges. MeCreary was heard aud was promptly asked to resign. If Mr. Egan be met with a similar request it will not probably happen until after the elec tion. The wagers here are in favor of the theory that the whole trouble will be smoothed over, and that Mr. Egan will go back to Chile, whose Government seems to be at this time pretty well satisfied with him. The Anxiety About Honolulu. Though the State Department is on the surface anxious in regard to the situation at the Hawaiian Islands only on account of a possibility that the political dissensions having their center at Honolulu may inter- lere in some way with the acquirement ty the United States of. a coaling station at Pearl Harbor, it is confidential! v admitted that this ig not the most serious phase oi the matter. No matter what faction might gain ascendaucy in the mutations of the very lively politics of these half-barbarous neighbors in the .Pacific, the privilege granted the United States to establish a coaling station at Pearl Harbor would be secure. That does not depend upon fluctua tions of parties nor changes of Ministries. It is a solemn treaty with the United States that could not be abrogated safely unless under the leadership and protection of an other and superior power. Neither are war vessels ot the United States necessary in the waters of the Hawaiian group especially for the protection of the interests of citizens of the Uuited States. If there is one person more than another who is sure of protection on these islands it is a citizen of the United States, never in danger of maltreatment even though he may misbehave more than others who are punished for their misdoing. Shadow of a Greater Danger. Back of all the anxietv abont interests of citizens of the United States there is the shadow of a greater danger, and that is the reason that in the face of possible revolu tion, or attempt at revolution, aud the formation of the Bepublic that has seemed to be on the carpet for many years, tbe United States has been careful to have some reliable war vessel always close at hand when a crisis was promised. It will be re membered that at the time of the trouble of the United States with Chile the Govern ment hesitated to order the vessel, then at Honolulu, to Valparaiso for the reason that a political upheaval at the former place t seemed to be imminent. It was considered to be imperative that this Government should be well repre sented by war vessels in view of the pres ence of vessels of Great Britain, which Government has waited for years for an ex cuse to take a hand in the arrangement of affairs on the islands of the Hawaiian group. It is expected that in case of any attempt at revolution the movement will be in be half of a Bepublic. Such a movement v. onld have for its supporters a great ma jority of the citizens of the United States, if not practically all of them, who are res!- dents of the islands. The appeal of the Ha waiian Queen and her supporters would, therefore, naturallv be made to some other power than the United States for proteo' tection, and for the maintenance of her rightful, hereditary Government.

Suggestions for improvements are always invited, and K practical ire adopted by tbe company. AN OFFICER DISCHAEGED. Chief Brown Fires Colored Policeman Adley From the Force Colored Officer John H. Adley was dis charged from the police force yesterday by a decision rendered by Chief Brown. Adley was charged some time ago with con duct unbecoming an officer, and it was brought before the Chief's notice. The testi mony showed that the policeman went to the house of the Mayor's messenger, Thomas W. Gale, on Homewood avenue, without any invitation, and remained ior supper. Mr. Gale Eaid to his wife that if Adley repeated his visit he was not to be given his supper. Next evening the officer made his call, but was told by Mrs. Gale that her husband had forbidden her to sup ply mm witn anotner meat. On the Sunday evening following one of Mr. Gale's children took a horse to the street to water it. She ran into tbe house ior a bucket, and during her absence Adlev. came along and took tbe horse to the city pound. When Gale went to get the horse Adley charged him a dollar for it and abused him in vigorous terms. He also failed to turn the dollar over to tire city treasury. The Measure of Damages. Testimony was taken yesterday before Commissioner Pierce in the case of the Ajax Engine CompanT versus Strnthers, Wells & Co., of Warren. Two years ago the engine company sued the Warren peo ple for infringing a "patent. Judgment was entered in lavor or the Ajar Company, and testimony is being taken now to determine the measure of damages. B. N. Hnrd, of Syracuse, testified yesterday. For Docking a Horse's Tall. The officers of the Humane Society were notified yesterday that Mrs. G. M. Brooks had been fined 525 in Philadelphia for dock ing her horse's tail. The veterinary surgeon who did the work has also been arrested. This is the second fine for the offense ever imposed in the State.

TWO OF BIS ARMIES ON THE WAT And rxpect to. Meet in the Capital Itself Eefore Many Weeks. YANKEES PROTECTED AT LA GUATEA New York, Oct R The steamship Ven ezuela, of the Bed D line, which arrived from La Guyara this afternoon, brought the latest news from the Venezuelan revo lution. As affairs stand now the long strug gle is nearing its end and will result in the overthrow of the Government. General Colino, with 6,000 men, joined General Crespo, the Revolutionist leader, at Valen cia Sunday, September 25. This, they say, made Crespo's force number about 10,000 men. " On Monday, September 26, General Crespo started his forces for Caracas. A part of his advance guard arrived at La Victoria on the 28th. Crespo is advancing his forces upon Caracas by different routes. One body nnder the command of General Vegas is advancing by the way of Patare, another body, nnder General Quintana, by way of El Valle. General Vegas has 800 men and General Quintana 2,000. They all expect to meet in Caracas. Where the Decisive Battle Will Occur. At Las Peques the Revolutionists will fight their decisive battle. Las Peques is the best fortified place the Government troops hod, and General Pulido is there with 6,000 soldiers. It will be necessary for Crespo to take this point before he can enter Caracas. Once he is in possession of Las Peques, his entrance into Caracas will be an easy matter. On the 28th there was a battle between the Bevolutionists and Government troops at Macuto, just outside of La Guyara, in which the Bevolutionists were defeated. Each side had about COO men. The Bevo lutionists troops were approaching La Guyara when the Government troops opened fire upon them from tbe mountain side, and from the advantage ot their posi tion succeeded in putting the Bevolution ists to flight All those who can are leaving Caracas, and in order to do so must obtain the per mission of the six officials highest in power. Watching for the South Portland. When the vesjel left La Guayra for New York, September 29, the Bevolutionists along the coast were looking for the steamer South Portland, which sailed from New York some time ago with a surreptitious cargo ot arms. The South Portland cleared for the British island of Trinidad, but the Venezuelan Consul in New York felt so I certain that she would put in at Puerto Cabello and hand over her cargo to the Bevolutionists that be had her seized. The Courts released her, and she sailed away with her cargo. She was expected to ar rive off the Venezuelan coast two days after the Bed "D" steamer left La Guayra. It was supposed here that South Portland would go to Puerto Cabello to discharge her cargo, but Bevolutionists thought that Puerto Cabello was too far away from the army, and accordingly it is expected that the South Portland will transfer her arms and ammunition on the high seas near the watering place of Macuto, which is only a few miles from tbe harbor of La Guayra, now in the hands or the Government A small steamship and two schooners were said to be in waiting near Macuto to meet the South Portland and receive the cargo. Color is given to this theory by the fact that a battle between the Government forces of Governor Palacio, of La Guayra, and the revolutionary forces under General Martin Vegas was fought at Macuto two days" before the Venezuela sailed. There were 600 men . in the revolutionary force and 800 in the detachment sent out by the Government It was a hot battle while it lasted. Finally the Government troops fled and the Bevolutionists pursued them as far as the outskirts of La Guayra. The Bevolutionists' Advantages. The Bevolutionists then established their picket line across the streets of the eastern part of the city. This gave the Bevolution ists undisturbed possession of Macuto. thus enabling them to receive the arms and am munition from the South Portland and to forward them over the mountains to the army of Crespo. It is thought unlikely that the naval force of tbe Government will be able to intercept the South Portland. (For tbe first time in many years, two vessels that ply the Spanish main have been branded as pirates. , These are the small steamers Barquisimeto and Tucuyo, which are the property ot theEnglish rail way running from the Tucasas to Bar quisimeto. The vessels have for some time been in the possession of the Bevolutionists, and the Government has just offered a re ward of f 5,000 for their capture. Apparently no effort is being made to get hold of six political refugees who w ere seized by General Urdaneta on board the Bed "D" steamer Caracas in the harbor of Puerto Cabello several weeks ago. Neither Ad miral Walker nor Minister Scruggs know jnst where the six men are now. Admiral Walker has been Beeklng tor Information from officers of the Bed "D" ships, but lurther than that he has taken no steps of a -decisive nature. President Pulido takes the gronnd that the refugees were seized by the leader of a faction over which the Government has no control. It is regarded as useless for Admiral Walker to try to pursue Urdaneta into Maracaibo except with small boats, for no vessel drawing more than 10 feet of water can get over the bar. Meanwhile reports have been received that the six refuges are having a particularly hard time of it in the dungeons of Fort San Carlos, at Maracaibo. Their friends say that they are being verv badly treated, in addition to being half siarred. A Spanish Foohah. From accounts given by -passengers of tbe Venezuela the captain of the Spanish gunboat Jorge Juan is running things to suit himself in the harbor and city of La Guayra. .The captain, It seems, gives pro tection to every lorcigner who needs it, and, as a result, is highlv popular with the foreign element in La duayra. The officers of the Bed "D" ships speak ot him in terms o.f unstinted praise. The Spaniard has taken it upon himself to protect the American ships from the many petty annoy ances thrust upon them by the customs authorities. When the Venezuela arrived at La Guayra there was some trouble about land ing. Tbe customs authorities refused to allow the ship to land unless she deposited. her register in tne uustom Mouse, captain Hopkins refused to give up his register, but on the advice of Minister Scroggs, which had been previously given in writing to Consul Hanna, he turned the register over to the American Consul. Then, with the captain 'of the Spanish gunboat on board, and with the Spaniard's advice, Captain Hopkins pulled into the breakwater. The Spaniard then suggested that the captain call for help from American 'men-of-war. A Bignal was run up, and hardly had it got to the peak when a boat dropped into the water from the Chicago, aud 25 marines tumbled into it. The marines soon had possession of tbe Venezuela's deck, but Admiral Walker wonld not allow the ship to begin discharging her cargo. Minister Scroggs telephoned down to Consul Hanna to end the'trouble by depositing the register in the Custom House. There was no fur ther trouble. TROUBLE IN VENEZUELA. A New Outbreak Right on the Heels of the Reports of Peace. Washington, Oct 5. It was rumored about tbe State Department this afternoon J DISPATCH, THURSDAY, that newt had been received from Vene zuela to tbe effect that tbe disturbances which had quieted down, bare again broken out and that the state of affairs in that country Is so serious as to require the con tinuance on the coast of Admiral Walker's fleet. Nothing can be learned at present from the officials of the department, aud the news received indicates a sudden change in the situation, as a cablegram received yes terday from Admiral Walker stated that everything was quiet BIG B001IS ARE BAD. Sensible Talk on the Subject by a Real Es tate Man to His Brethren -IJvely Fight ing for the Location of the Next Conven tion. Buffalo, Oct. 5. Delegates to the Na tional Eeal Estate Congress lhave been crowding into town rapidly since yesterday morning, and now it is computed that there are abont 1,000 delegates present Benja min Hardwick, manager of the Beal Estate' and Auction Company of New York, read a paper entitled "The Beal Estate Exchange of the City of New York; its Organization and Proeress." He says the New York Ex change was organized and has now been open seven years, during which time trans actions amounting to (600,000,000 have taken place among its members. "A word about .booms," said Mr. Hard wick. "There seems to be an impression on tbe part of real estate men, especially in the West, that the first great object of a Beal Estate Exchange should be to boom values and enhance prices. There is no policy so fatal to the general welfare of the real estate business, and which invariably reacts upon any locality upon which it is put in force, as a boom movement A boom movement attracts a number of men into the business who would otherwise be employed in other' callings, and by so doing promotes excessive competition. A boom draws to any particu lar place a number of persons who buy simply to hold in hope of being able to un load on the shoulders of somebody else. This class of buyers is no good to a locality." Previous to the evening session cau cuses -were held by the delegates from most of the large cities ior the purpose of deciding upon what city they should recom mend ior the Congress of 1893. A combine has been entered into between St Paul, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Dulutb, Superior and Ashland to secure the congress for St Paul.

Carnegie Lays the Corner Stone of Ills Present to the Town of Ayr. London, Oct Si In Ayr to-day the corner stone of the Memorial Library, pre sented to the town by Andrew Carnegie, was laid with elaborate ceremonies. Almost the whole town took a holiday, aqd despite tbe hostility of some working people an immense crowd gathered ronnd the site of the building. The procession from the Town Hall to the foundations of the build ing was led by tbe city officials, Mr Car negie and Mrs. Carnegie. Mrs. Carnegie laid the corner stone, and the Mayor after delivering a speech of effusive thanks, pre sented Mr. Carnegie with the freedom of the city. As Mr. Carnegie stepped forward, hat in hand, to reply, he was greeted with ronnd after round of applause, so load that a few groans and cries about Homestead were hardly audible. Mr. Carnegie spoke at considerable length. Part ot his remarks were as follows: "I feel more strongly bound than ever to devote the remaining years of my lite less to aims ending in self, and more to the service of others, using my surplus wealth and spare time in the manner most likely to produce the greatest good to the masses ot the people. From these masses comes the wealth which is entrusted to the owner only as administrator." Mr. Carnegie received from the city a magnifi cently illustrated volume of "Views of the Land of Burns."

Liberals Lose u the Foreign Test Voto Before Mission Board. CHURCHES AbK EEPKESENTATIOIf. A Special Committee Is Appointed to re port on the, Hatter. - THE EPISCOPAL CONVENTION BEGINS Chicago, Oct 6. The ultimate result of the present meeting of the American Board ot Commissioners of Foreign Missions will be a contest between conservatism and lib erality between the spirit represented 4by Prof. Smythe, of Andover Seminary, the foremost Congregational Liberal, and Dr. Storrs, who is fairly representative of the Conservatives. The point In controversy is, "Shall the American Board concede a point to the democratic spirit?" The board is a close corporation self- constituting, self-perpetuating, self-administering but dependent npon the churches. The churches demand that since they are taxed they should have representa tion. The Conservatives won the first point when they nominated the committees on nominations aud business, with only one Liberal member on each and four ultra-Conservatives on each. Conservatives 'Win the First Fight This morning Dr. E. K. Alden read a paper defending the Conservative policy. His subject was "The Fellowship of the American Board With the Churches." Dr. Noble arose on the conclusion of the paper and moved its reference to a committee of 21 with orders to' report next year. Dr. Quint moved a substitute that the matter go to the Business Committee with orders to report duiing this session. Dr. A. Dunning, editor of the Congrega tlonalitt, a Liberal, said: "The churches de mand broad representation. If the board says we will not attend to tbe matter before next year the churches will conclude that the board has no intention to consider the matter." He demanded that the paper go to the Business Committee. The Conserva tives won their next great point on the 'vote on the substitute. It uas lost by a vote of 29 to 42. Dr. Noble followed up his victory by moving an amendment that the paper be given to a committee of 11 instead of 21, the oommittee being instructed to report as soon as possible. The Liberals, seeing them selves fairly beaten, refrained from voting and the Conservative element won by a unanimous vote. It is safe to say Presiden t Storrs will see to it that the committee is not one of revolutionary tendencies, for in announcing the vote he said significantly, "A unanimous vote, thanks be to God." A Iteport Possible at This Session. The manifest understanding was that the committee of should make a report, if only a tentative report, before the end of this session, and Dr. Noble, the chairman of the committee, though an ultra-Conservative, will probably deem it safe or ex pedient to modify his views in some de gree. It is probable that the committee will bring In a report suggesting that the churches and State associations endeavor to be at ease under the existing regime in the future as in the past, but in lieu of radical altera tions, offering to the churches the pre-ex-istent privilege of nominating candidates for the Corporate Board. That the special committee will suggest any curtail ment of the present well-nigh absolute power over such nominations in the hands of the Committee on Membership is prob able. EPISCOPAL BISH0PSMEET. A Ceremonial Session Opens a Conference That "Will Last Three Weeks. Baltimore, Oct 5. The Triennial Con vention of Bishops of the Episcopal Church opened in this city this morning by a ceremonial meeting, and will re main in session for three weeks. Sixty-six Bishopsi entered by tbe front door, each wearing in addition to his whole surplice a robe denoting his rank. The opening sermon was delivered by Bishop Witlock, of Alabama. Bishop John Wijliams, of Connecticut, officiated at the celebration of holy communion, assisted by Bishop Neely, of Maine. The afternoon n as spent in organization. F3EE BAPTISTS MEET And Congratulate Themselves In Their Greater liberty In Religious Belief. Loweia, Mass., Oct 5. The triennial meeting of the General Conference of Free Baptists of the United States was opened here this forenoon. Bev. J. M. Davis, President of the Bio Grande College, Ohio, delivered the opening sermon, in which he contrasted the freedom of this denomination in religions research with sister denomina tions in their more contracted interpretation of the intent of God. He closed with a plea for the extension of missionary work, but hoped it would not be done at the neglect of home territory. Humane Society Mission Work. L. H. Eaton, President of the Humane Society, returned from East Brady, Clarion county, Pa., yesterday afternoon, where he on Tuesday evening addressed a meeting of the citizens of that place in the M. E. Church on the subject ot "Prevention of Cruelty to Children, Aged Persons and An imals." The Humane Society about six weeks ago established a branch in East Brady, and Tuesday night's meeting was largely attended and very enthusiastic. Bands of mercy have been established in all the schools there. An Actress In Hard Luck. A 17-year-old girl named Daisy Cochran, who went to secure a room at 2010 Penn avenue last evening, was arrested and locked up in the Central police station.
