M i n i s t e r Bdmtta'a Bad Break. VA.LTAR^JSO, Jan. 4.—It appears that a t a meeting of President Montt's old cabinet, called to discuss President Harrison's mes- sage, Minister Matta was authorized to re- ply to it. He wrote ont the document which was cabled to Chili's ministers in Europe and America as the provisional gov ernment's reply to the United States with- out evBr having submitted it to President Montt. or the other members of the cabinet In spite of this omisafon Minister "Matta, in sending a message to .Minister Egan on the same subject, stated that the document was the official utterance of the Chilian gov eminent. i Whan the truth was known it was thou too late for President Montt or \he othei members of the cabinet to disavow respon- sibility for the curt tone of the reply and at the same time avoid giving offense just theD to the radical party. ^ Now, however, the radical party, as well as the leading members of congress, are fully inclined to disavow and condemn tht retired minister's words. The present min- istry is preparing another document &b a substitute for Senor Matta's undiplomatic letter. It is stated here that the German emperoi will be proposed as an arbitrator in the Bal- timore case. Chill'* 8ld« of the One.

The lettare wece -ob- tained from sources of the highest authority Several of them are written with much spirit. The flrHt communication is a "h^t t letter from Minister of Foreign AJjain Matta to Minister Egan. SANTIAOO, Oot. 27. SIR -The undersigned received yesterday tht note in which your excallenoy, complying witt instructions received from your government, gives an Eocoont of the diplomatic events which took place on the 16th. and expresses opinions, formulates demands and makes threats which, while not contradicted with aorlmany, are nol accepted, by this government In the present case, nor in any other of a similar naturo The undersigned does not doubt nor does In protect against the ilncerity, rectitude and ability of the Investigations made in reference to the lamentable occurrence between some American sailors and some Chilian sailors and boatmen,but In the performance of his duty and in compliance with International requirements and usages, which have never been questioned by cultured nations, he defers and will defer to the Jurisdiction of the authorities of his own country, which alone have full right and suffi- cient power to judge and punish the guilty ones whoever they may be and whorever they may bo found on Chilian territory The event occurred In Valparaiso, and from the day it took place tho admlnlstr*tlvo and judicial authorities respectively, have occupied themselves In discovering the persona who were to bume and who should be punished In tha vory deplorable event, which has not yet been examined and judged Inasmuch as the undersigned believes that in the position he holds it U his precise and de- cided obligation, aa it Is his desire, to cultivate good relations, not only with friendly nations, but with its distinguished and authorized rep- resentatives, he does not take Into considera- tion the form given by the minister plenipoten- tlaxy to the complaints and protests contained in some parts of his note, and proceeds to an- swer the only two points in It wjjich' require an answer, in order that matters may remain in th* position and in the light which corresponds to them. After the disorder the competent au- thorities began the necessary investigations in order to establish who were the responsible parties and how they should be punished, and regarding this investigation the commander of the Baltimore must have received notice or have had some knowledge. Facta Kept Secret. The Judicial Investigation of the facts, which is kept secret op to a certain point, when it is made pubUc, has not yet reached me, and for this reason this department has no knowledge and cannot transmit the facts concerning the crime or those whom the Investigation may prove to be guilty. As soon as this reaches its Anal point, be the conclusions what they may regarding the culpa- bility and the guilty parties, the undersigned— who does not recognize any other legitimate authority for the Judging of criminal occur- rences In Chilian territory than that established by the people of Chili—will have the honor and the obligation to communicate It to the envoy axtraordinary and minister plenipotentiary of the United States, whose government and whose people have never disregarded nor ever will disregard in other countries with which they maintain friendly relations, the prerogstlvea' and rights of sovereign- ty, which nowhere are more evident or of greater application than In the oxercise of that Jurisdiction which corresponds to every Inde- pendent nation. Without acknowledging that the disorders in the streets of Valporaiso and the silence ob- served by the department "shall appear as the expression of Ul win toward the government of the United States, which may endanger the maintenance of the friendly relations between the two countries," the undersigned has the honor to reiterate, etc., M. A MATTA. On Oct. 80 Minister Matta assures Egan that due justice will be done. Judge of Crimes Foster's letter to Minister Matta, explaining his coarse in the Balti- more affair, is as follows: CRIMINAL COURT, I VALPARAiao, Nov. 8. f Mr MiNiiTT.a—At your excellency knows, this oourt has since Oct. 17 last been engaged In Investtgatln* with activity and seal th* lamentable disorders which occurred between sailors of the American cruiser Baltimore, Chilian sailors and townspeople, with the de termlnod purpose of discovering the true origin of these disorders and in applying In due time the punishment merited by those persons re- sponsible for them, whatever their nationality. In the course of the investigation this court, animated by a spirit of high impartiality aa well as qf international courtesy, issued a de- cree ordering that all data relative to the oc- currences which the American consul and the commander of the Baltimore might have col. looted should bo asked of them In order thai they might be united in the investigations, but both these omdals excuse themselves from furnishing any facts, iiloging that the mattoi had had been referred to the Hon. Patrick Egan, envoy extraordinary and minister plonl potentlary In Santiago' by order of their gov. eminent. The commander of the Baltimore adds, that Mr. Egan might, if asEed. furnish a series of names of persona who" in their turn might indicate the names of others who saw the death oi the Bailor Riggin, etc This but suggestion of the command: / oblifw tha undersigned to address you in order to so licit through your department the data, whlck the Honorable Minister Egan can have. And Inasmuch as this has furnished tn* °cc* 1 sion of my addressing you I do not wish to al- low it to pass without manifesting th* surprise produced on this oonrt by the tact that an at- tempt has been made to create a troublesosM international question out of an occarreaol which ought not to have gone beyond the hall* of this tribunal, which has Investigated It in con- formity to tne laws which in our own country secure the rights of all without distinction of nationality, Purely a Local Affair. In effect, Mr. Minister, in order that a com, mon crime (ncogxxtemti and punished by out penal code) should be carried to the ground oj diplomacy it would, be necessary that one of tht fohowingclrcTirn stances should have occurred: First—That In this crime the authorities ol the place or Its responsible agents should hav< taken a personal and direct part. Second—That If thee* same authorities oi their agsnts could hare prevented th* occur, reno* of the fact or its after oonseqnsnose they should oars rsfoatd to do to, Third-That ordinary Justice being oofnlxant of what had happened should not hare pro- estded to investlgat* th* facts in ordsr to pun- ish those] who might be proven guilty. Fourth—That the court caDed to InTestigaM ttdaaffalr should d*cJ4* It oMtrary »the a* promised. Do the disorders of the lfitb of October ap- pear as Invested even with ah'y of these circum- stances? None of the wounded sailors, nor the captain ' of the Baltimore, nor the American consul hal offended our authorities by insinuating even before this tribunal that the disordera-of the lBth could have taken place with their partlcl patlon or knowledge; neither has any chargi whatsoever boon made against the same au thorities or against the police for their inability to provent those occurrences. On the contrary, from the actual declaration! of the greater part of the sailors of the Balti- more, it appears that the police force lent op portuno aid. Tbe-comnmnder of the Baltimor* himself, who, together with the Amorican vio» consul, paid an official visit to this court, mads satisfactory declarations respecting the con- duct of the police and added that the conduct of some of the officers bad been extremely gal lout and courteous. Foster adds that two of the guilty one* have confessed, and deplores the necessary length of the investigation. He conclude* as follows: The Investigation will follow the course in dioated by oar IOWB of procedure, and the min later may be perfectly convinced that full and Impartial Justice will be dona How, then, 11 there la no motive for supposing that in th< definite Judgment which this court m&y give the law wul be trampled on to the prej udice ol the lights of the sailors of the Baltimore, how can the American minister seek through diplo matte ways the protection of his citizens whicli has not been donlod to anybody, and whieh th< Chilian law amply grants them as it does to itt own sons. The undersigned entertains, the certainty thai your exceUency will uphold -with the patriot ism, rectitude aud impartiality the rights ol this court, in the event'(which I do not expect; that the minister plenipotentiary uf the UnlteC States should attempt to disregard them God guard yoa On Nov. 6 Intendente Arleguo, of Valpa- raiso, assured Captain Schley that he had ordered the police to protect any of Schley's boati) that might come ashore, but inti- mates that Schley will be prudent, in view of the troublous times, if he keeps his met on board ship Nov 9, Minister Matta asks Minister Egax and Captain Schley to assist Chili in her ef forte to ferret out the guilty ones by giving what evichmce they have' Carnegie Working Hard.

The highest mobntain in Iceland was ascended last suifl>uer for the first time. The successful mountaineer was Mr. F. W.i W. Howell,! who was encouraged when he started t5or I c e l a n d by informa- tion from the Royal Geographical so- ciety that the difficulties in the way of climbing the Oroefa Jokull were sup- posed t o b e insuperable. The mountain is near the southeast coast, and is an im- posing sight from the sea. Mr. Howell made an attempt in 1890 to climb the mountain, but was defeated by the weather. On Aug. 17 last he left Sandfell, a little settlement on the coast near the base of the mountain, at 4 a. m., when of course it was broad daylight in that latitude? He was accompanied b y t w o Icelanders as porters. He struck the snow slopes at 10 a. in., a n d i t took him nine hours and a half to reach the top of the mountain whose sides are quite steep and covered with ice and snow. Though this mountain is the highest In Iceland, its elevation was found by Mr. Howell to be only 6,650 feet, but owing - to the latitude the phenomena of the snow slopes compare most favorably with those of mountains 10,1)00 feet high in Switzerland. Mr. Howell sa- « the icicle galleries in the upper crevasses are particularly fine. This is undoubtedly one of the most successful feats of mountain climbing of the year, for the mountain presents as many difficulties aa any of the Alps, with two or three ex- ceptions. It is comparatively easy to as- cend Mount Hecla, and the climb is made every once in a while by one or more tourists.—New York Sun. Life in Central New York.

Of course they were annoyed and anxious to catch the thief, and, somewhat inclined to believe in the mys- terious, Shepp and Cjlott w e n t t o a Syra- cuse fortune teller for information. She took their money and informed them that they would find the harnesses on the premises of some one w hose first name Wits James, secreted in a barrel. They thought of the Jameses in their vicinity. There was neighbor James Rich and neighbor James Wright, the latter a well t o d o farmer, and they g o t a war- rant from ' a Collamer justice to search the house of the first J a m e s a n d o n e of .the bams of the second James. Tlje officer who had the warrant did epv accompanied by Mr. Gott and Mr. Eoiepp. But the haraesseB were not found, and now James Rich promises to make it interesting for Grott and Shepp. He claims they dug up his cellar, scattered his potatoes around and did other mis- ohlef of this character, and made no effort to put things i n a s good shape as they found them. He jw&nts damages from the two gentleman, and Bays he will ask the court to grant; his request unless Grott and Shepp walk up and pay. —Madison County Times. A Question for English Lawyers. A correspondent raises the question whether a retired judge can practice at the bar, and goes o n t o say: "The point is an interesting one, and if report speaks truly it is not unlikely to be raised by the action of Mr. Justice Hawkins, who, on bis retirement next month, it is said, will resume his old role of advocate. There i s n o precedent for an English judge' appearing again at the bar after retirement, but i t i s not •yD, uncommon thing for an Indian or colonial judge to resume practice when he has left -the bench. These officials, however, a r e i n a n entirely different position to their English brethren, and their example counts for very Jittle. <• «!The absence of an EngMi precedent Is much more to the purpose, a^d it would probably be ponsiaerea conclusive \t<f -the bar rorornittee i f n o t b y t h e be raised. Anyway, it would bo decid- edly unfair for a judge who had received a handsome pension to enter into compe- tition with his struggling professional brethren Who had yet a career to make, to say nothing of the awkwardness of the situation which would be created."— Yorkshire {England) Post. #iE2& MILITARY TRAINING FOR ATHLETES. Advantages of Discipline and Restriction in Muscular Development. Americans take a special interest in athletics and all forms of outdoor exer- cise. In this they partake of a habit of most of the northern races. The En- glishman indulges in rude sports i n t h e field, and in his hunting will travel as far as India jto have a brush with the tiger or lion in his native jungle. In Germany societies prevail everywhere for the purpose of physical training, and the German is fond of .dashing into the forests to hunt the wild boar. The fa- vorite diversion of the Americans i n t h e west has been the hunting of the buffalo and grizzly bear. The exoitement of such sports amply compensates for their danger. "It doth more stir the blood to rouse a lion than to start a hare." The case is very different in most southern countries. In southern Europe the sports consist principally in hunting small game, involving no very great physical exercise. Tie favorite amuse- ment is4)illiards or cards, which can be played within doors without exertion or exposure to the elements. Americans being among the most prominent people in pursuit of athletics and conspicuous in their disposition to indulge iu manly sports, it is always an interesting ques- tion a s t o what training it is best to pur- sue in that direction. For youngsters the hoop, the top, marbles and ta% an- swer every purpose. While young men are in college football and baseball fur- nish ample means of physical exercise. At West Point and Annapolis military and naval drills, swimming and occa- sional outdoor games insure the perfec- tion of physical training, and send the graduates of those institutions out iuto the world witli muscles of iron and con- stitutions fitted for almost any strain. But after the college days the training ceases, a reaction sets in, and a breaking down in health is often the conbequeuce. Gymnasiums, bicycles and long tramps may serve a good purpose for a time, but these are suou given up, as there is little incentive for exercising unless the exerciee bo systematic, part^of wine well organized plan and stimulated by asso- ciation with one's fellows. * In casting about we find no better physical advantages t o b e gained than those derived from the military exercises which young men undergo iu the militia services. Camping out in summer in well "Selected camps gives them au out- door life whieh is a much needed change from the indoor life led throughout the long winters; during which so much vitiated air is breathed in crowded places of business and ill ventilated sleeping apartments. Marching i s t h e most rational exercise for the legs; the manual of arms always insures healthy cheste and well developed arms, and moving at the double quick improves tiie breathing power of the lungs. Unlike the athletics in college there is no overtraining, which so often injures the subjects by excess, and no breaking down after tue training has ceased. The inarching aud drilling under competent instructors improve the gait of the re- cruit, and give him a tinner, easier step and a more graceful carriage. Military service has many advantages mentally. It cultivates intelligence among young m e n a n d does much to- ward improving the memory and curing absentmindedness. The necessity of be- ing albert, listening fog each word of command and acting promptly np.on it, quickens the wits and cultivates the habit of fixing the attention and concen- trating the thoughts. Marching t o t h e sound of music gives a young m a n a better idea of measure and rhythm, and is calculated to make him more method- ical iu all things. His entering upon the duties of a soldier leads him to study military history, which embodies the chief history af nations. The hardest lesson t o b e learned in life is that of amenability to discipline.' lu a laud like this, where there is very lit- tle restraint among young or uld, where self abnegation is but little heard of, and whero the race of life is pretty much a "go as you please," there is scarcely any school in which subordination and obe- dience are taught except in the military service.—General Horace Porter in Cos- mopolitan. Edison a n d H i s Visitors. About Orange you can hear number- less stories of Edison. Everybody likes him. One man, w h o h a d for years been in his employ a s a n experimentalist, told of a visit a number, of men—Jay Gould, Sidney Dillon, Cyrus Field aud others— paid to Edison at the laboratory one day. Edison came out of his workroom, where he vvaw lirysy, and shook hands with Mr. Field. At that instant bome- thing popped into his head apropos of the experiment he was at work on. He never gives a-n idea time to escape him. Without a word ,of excuse to the mag- nates, he turned on his heel and hurried into his den again. They waited and waited, and by and by, tired out with delay, wended their way down stairs. Shortly afterward Edison came out and asked: "Where did those paupers go?" "Downstairs.'' "Did they walk?" "Yes." "That's right. I don't want 'em to wear the oil off my elevator." Then he stood around and told stories to his men. He is a great m a n f o r stories, and it is a tradition among his employees that they can tell h i m t h e same story ever3" d a y f o r a week and he will never tire of it, nor in fact show any sign of having heard it before.— Drake's Magazine. Nnvtll Officers' Clothes. American naval officers a r e m e n o f many clothes, and the official etiquette of dress aboard ship is appalling t o a landsman. Every officer must have four or five styles of hats and caps, at least as many different kinds of coats, and even prescribed styles of neckties in consider- able variety. The captain ordinarily prescribes the uniform of the day, but when a flagship is within signaling dis- tancr of another man-of-war, the admiral is the authority unclothes as on other thinjrs. —Yank*-- ' 'de.

A., and bride, who were married on Monday at Phillipsburg, were the victims of a ludi- crous practical joke at the hands of their friends. They boarded ,- the Pittsburg; , day express, which reaches here about : 6:30, and like most btmeymooners tried 1 to look and act like old married people. i Meanwhile their baggage was holding ! an impromptu reception in the baggage car. There were i hree-brand new trunks, and upon one of IIH-IH a huge card, oare fully painted, was tackfid with largw brass tacks, with the inscription: : HONEYMOON BAGGAGE. : : , "Bride's Trousseau." This was further ornamented with a large bow of white satin. On'the sec- ond trunk was a placard like this: I HlANDLB WITH CAKS. I "Just .Married." : And another huge white satin bow. The groom's trunk was spared a label, but the satin b o w w a s a trifle larger and more conspicuous thau the others. The baggage agent thought the thing too good to keep to himself, so he in- vited everybody iu to enjoy the joke. Of course everybody went through ths car to find the young married couple, and equally of course the young married couple were easily found, and they won- dered, as the people smiled broadly when they passed them, whether they "were more conspicuously married than all the other young brides and grooms that had lived and moved and had. their beings, or whether they were only suf- fering what thou-nnds had done before them. They never found o u t , a n d i t i s p r e sutned that, the trunks thus belabeled rolled up KJ all prominent hotels and gave the bagurage smashers a treat.— Philadelphia Press. * To Extinguish Prairie FJres. "" An iu vent ive genius of North Dakota, has just patented a device for makings* fire break to fight prairie fires with. It is a sheet iron contrivance five feet wide and seven feet long and about two feet high. On top of it are three circular reser voirs for holding gasoline. Underneath is arranged a series of burners designed I, to set fire to the grass as the machine passes over it. The main part of the ap-. paratns is followed b y a sheet iron trailer in three sections, each five by seven feet. W h i l e t l i e first two of these are pass ing over the grass i t i s supposed t o be< well consumed, and the final trailer i& de8igned{to extinguish every particle of fire. The invention is awakening much interest among the ranchmen, many o f • whom believe the machine will prove impracticable because it will not securely confine tne fire a n d i t will thereby cause serious conflagrations. The inventor claims it will safely burn a strip hvt> feet wide ami twenty-five miles long in one day. Four horses will be required to draw the apparatus.—New York Tele- gram. The l>end Returned. - The announcement of the suicide of Dr. F. D. Clarke, iu Chicago, led to a sensational incident when Dr. H. V. Oldfield entered Fenwick's restaurant to take his dinner next day. With one ac- cord the people arose from their chairs. "Has the grave yielded up its dead?" wa-s the query on every face. Dr. Old- field looked startled himself. He turned red, then white, and tottered to that desk. The gentlemanly attendant drew pack. At last one courageous man ap- proached the desk and said, "Are yoa not dead?" This brought' ont a n e x planation. Dr. Ojdfield bought D r . F . D . Clarke's business here two years ago, and, owing to the reputation of the place, continued the old name. Oldfield is in feature* form, manner and voice the exact coun- terpart of the Chicago specialist.—De troit Cor.

The officer in charge notified the deputy sheriff, who not having authority t o l e t a n y o n e into the jury ro:>m, drove across the city and informed the sheriff, but even this offi- cial was not high enough to act, and an- other expedition started in search of tb© judge.

Mrs. Graves received m a n y d ispatches of condolence today, but none ware from Colonel Ballon He has n o t been heard of Bince his departure Speaking of Colonel Ballou's flight.

deep flush passed over the face of Dr. Graves, fol lowed by a deathly pallor. When the clerk pronounced the words , "Murder in the first i legree," the andience s tarted to cheer, bnt a bailiff s topped the demonstrat ion. The perspiration dropped from the brow of the accused and he rose from his chair

J u d g e Furman placed his hands over his face and wept , 'i he defeat s e e m e d to crush him Dr Graves did not w e e p , but his ex­c i tement was most overwhe lming .

T h e lettare w e c e -ob­tained from sources of the highest author i ty Several of t h e m are wr i t t en w i t h much spirit. The flrHt communicat ion is a "h^t t le t ter from Minister of Foreign AJjain Matta to Minister Egan.

S A N T I A O O , Oot. 27. S I R -The undersigned received yesterday tht

note in which your excallenoy, complying witt instructions received from your government, gives an Eocoont of the diplomatic events which took place on the 16th. and expresses opinions, formulates demands and makes threats which, while not contradicted with aorlmany, are nol accepted, by this government In the present case, nor in any other of a similar naturo

The undersigned does not doubt nor does In protect against the ilncerity, rectitude and ability of the Investigations made in reference to the lamentable occurrence between some American sailors and some Chilian sailors and boatmen,but In the performance of his duty and in compliance with International requirements and usages, which have never been questioned by cultured nations, he defers and will defer to the Jurisdiction of the authorities of his own country, which alone have full right and suffi­cient power to judge and punish the guilty ones whoever they may be and whorever they may bo found on Chilian territory

The event occurred In Valparaiso, and from the day it took place tho admlnlstr*tlvo and judicial authorities respectively, have occupied themselves In discovering the persona who were to b u m e and who should be punished In tha vory deplorable event, which has not yet been examined and judged

Inasmuch as the undersigned believes that in the position he holds it U his precise and de­cided obligation, aa it Is his desire, to cultivate good relations, not only with friendly nations, but with its distinguished and authorized rep­resentatives, he does not take Into considera­tion the form given by the minister plenipoten-tlaxy to the complaints and protests contained in some parts of his note, and proceeds to an­swer the only two points in It wjjich' require an answer, in order that matters may remain in th* position and in the light which corresponds to them. After the disorder the competent au­thorities began the necessary investigations in order to establish who were the responsible parties and how they should be punished, and regarding this investigation the commander of the Baltimore must have received notice or have had some knowledge.

Facta K e p t Secret . The Judicial Investigation of the facts, which

is kept secret op to a certain point, when it is made pubUc, has not yet reached me, and for this reason this department has no knowledge and cannot transmit the facts concerning the crime or those whom the • Investigation may prove to be guilty.

As soon as this reaches its Anal point, be the conclusions what they may regarding the culpa­bility and the guilty parties, the undersigned— who does not recognize any other legit imate authority for the Judging of criminal occur­rences In Chilian territory than that established by the people of Chili—will have the honor and the obligation to communicate It to the envoy axtraordinary and minister plenipotentiary of the United States, whose government and whose people have never disregarded nor ever will disregard in other countries with which they maintain friendly relations, the prerogstlvea' and rights of sovereign­ty, which nowhere are more evident or of greater application than In the oxercise of that Jurisdiction which corresponds to every Inde­pendent nation.

Without acknowledging that the disorders in the streets of Valporaiso and the silence ob­served by the department "shall appear as the expression of Ul win toward the government of the United States, which may endanger the maintenance of the friendly relations between the two countries," the undersigned has the honor to reiterate, etc., M. A M A T T A .

On Oct. 80 Minister Matta assures Egan t h a t due jus t i ce wi l l be done.

Judge of Crimes Foster's le t ter to Minister Matta, expla in ing his coarse in the Balti­more affair, is as fo l lows:

C R I M I N A L COURT, I VALPARAiao, Nov. 8. f

Mr MiNiiTT.a—At your excellency knows, this oourt has since Oct. 17 last been engaged

In Investtgatln* with activity and seal th* lamentable disorders which occurred between sailors of the American cruiser Baltimore, Chilian sailors and townspeople, with the d e termlnod purpose of discovering the true origin of these disorders and in applying In due time the punishment merited by those persons re­sponsible for them, whatever their nationality.

In the course of the investigation this court, animated by a spirit of high impartiality aa well as qf international courtesy, issued a de­cree ordering that all data relative to the oc­currences which the American consul and the commander of the Baltimore might have col. looted should bo asked of them In order thai they might be united in the investigations, but both these omdals excuse themselves from

furnishing any facts, i i loging that the mattoi had had been referred to the Hon. Patrick Egan, envoy extraordinary and minister plonl

potentlary In Santiago' by order of their gov. eminent . The commander of the Baltimore adds, that Mr. Egan might, if asEed. furnish a series of names of persona who" in their turn might indicate the names of others who saw the death oi the Bailor Riggin, e t c

This but suggestion of the command: / oblifw tha undersigned to address you in order to so licit through your department the data, whlck the Honorable Minister Egan can have.

And Inasmuch as this has furnished tn* ° c c * 1 sion of my addressing you I do not wish to al­low it to pass without manifesting th* surprise produced on this oonrt by the tact that an at­tempt has been made to create a troublesosM international question out of an occarreaol which ought not to have gone beyond the hall* of this tribunal, which has Investigated It in con­formity to tne laws which in our own country secure the rights of all without distinction of nationality,

P u r e l y a L o c a l Affair. In effect, Mr. Minister, in order that a com,

mon crime (ncogxxtemti and punished by out penal code) should be carried to the ground oj diplomacy it would, be necessary that one of tht fohowingclrcTirn stances should have occurred:

First—That In this crime the authorities ol the place or Its responsible agents should hav< taken a personal and direct part.

Second—That If thee* same authorities oi their agsnts could hare prevented th* occur, reno* of the fact or i ts after oonseqnsnose they should oars rsfoatd to do to,

Third-That ordinary Justice being oofnlxant of what had happened should not hare pro-estded t o investlgat* th* facts in ordsr t o pun­ish those] who might be proven guilty.

Fourth—That the court caDed t o InTestigaM ttdaaffalr should d*cJ4* It oMtrary » t h e a *

promised. Do the disorders of the lfitb of October ap­

pear as Invested even with ah'y of these circum­stances?

None of the wounded sailors, nor the captain ' of the Baltimore, nor the American consul hal offended our authorities by insinuating even before this tribunal that the disordera-of the lBth could have taken place with their partlcl patlon or knowledge; neither has any chargi whatsoever boon made against the same au thorities or against the police for their inability to provent those occurrences.

On the contrary, from the actual declaration! of the greater part of the sailors of the Balti­more, it appears that the police force lent o p portuno aid.
