States minister to Iho Arponlino Republic ,
nrrivod bore yestordav. Ho has been In South
America for the past thirtu < n years nnd is
well qualified to sneak on matlors poilaluing
to that country. Ho Is nn Intimate friend of
President Bnlmaeedu of Chill , lu spcaulng
of thu latter ho said :
"A more determined man I never saw. Ho
was Chilian minister to the Arqonllno Ko-
dubllo during my tlmo thoro. Very shrewd
ho is , too , and Intelligent. I think eventually
ho will succeed. You probably know the

maccda retained the army by offering It
double pay. The war Is a terrible ono. The
Chilians are dcscondod from the Arcanla In
dians , who were never defeated , No prison
ers are taken. Everybody Is killed.
Haltuacoda lives in bis palace. His
mother , who cooks his meals , says she
wants him to dlo there If ale he must.
Ho contlscatcd all the property belonging to

The boiler classes nro with the insurgents ,
but so long as the nrmy , which Is UU.UOO
strong , continues with Ualmaccda , uo will
hold out. The insurgents nro trying hard to
form a land force , and If they succeed Iho
lido will bo turned against Dnlmacoda. For
tbl * purpose they nro buying arms lu the
United Stales. The Itata probably has a big
supply. "
"Was anything In nalmaccdn's administra
tion criticised by the Chilians ! "
"No , It wns satisfactory. Hut they feared
that his wanting lo appoint his own successor
meant that ho had somothlng to cover up and
congress objected. The war will sot Chill

A TltOUm.KU DEMOCRAT.
The activity of republicans In starting the
canvass of Ib'JJ Is a tnoru In Ihu sldo of ox-
State Senator Henry WcUtlcld of Soutn
C.uollim , and unless domociats bostlr thorn-
solves simllaiiy , the republicans will by next
3 car bo so far ahead , ho says , as to defy all
power.
"Why 1 Since the convention of the rcbub-
lican league in Cincinnati , republicans have
boon working llko beavers down our way or
ganising clubs , " ho said at the Palmer house
today. "They nro what count. They did
business in IbSS and will In 1S92 If the domo-
crnts don't wnko up. It seem * as If the ban
quet of last Jail still lies heavy on the demo
| cratic stomach and Instead of the leaders
i doing anything lo enlist their followers in the
I light they mo occupying themselves with
I backbiting ono another. Down our way those
in charge of the ropubllcan club now are
doing splendid service and I understand It Is
the sumo In other states. They are getting
many lecruits nnd If inoro U anything In or-
ganl7atlon the lopubllcans are going to como
so near winning that It will tuko n magnify
ing glass to distinguish any difference be
tween them and the leaders. "
