Sept 2. [ Now Vork Herald Cablo-Spcclal
to TIIK UBB.J Exciting news Is brougbt
today frum the south by the Straits steamer
which came up from Tnlcahunno. The two
regiments of government troops which were
taken to that port recently from Coqulnibo
by the transport Imporinlo revolted when they
hoard of the defeat of the Balmacodtsts at
Plocllln last Friday. They shot to death all
their ofllcers and disbanded.
Nearly four thousand coal miners Jolno-1
them and together they have practically
taken possession of the town of Coronol on
the coast about twonty-flvo miles south of
Concepcloti. All sorts of excesses have been
committed by thorn. Houses and stores have
lioon sacked and burned. The slightest pro
test against their actions Is met by rlflo shots.
"Women hava boon abused and subjected to
brutalities of the most revolting character.
In fact rnalo rule In Its worst form pro-
Tails. Homo outrages have boon committed
also In Concopclon and Talcnhuauo , but the
force at the disposal of the authorities thorn
lias been sufllciont to save thorn from
the fata which has overtaken the
six thousand people of Coronol.
As soon as the news was racolvod this morn
ing the Gorman war ship Sophto and the
British gun boat Daphne were ordered to gent
nt once to Coronol and protect the Interests
of forolen residents there. The government
ofllclals hero have also taken stops to beat
f' the mob Into subjection.
SeuorJorgo Montt , ( Jonoral Canto and
i others of the congressional chiefs arrived in
t Santiago this morning. They wore
I received with the greatest on
ly thuslosm by the people of the
' capltol. Oonoral Baquodnno , the acting pros-
iuont , received them ofllcially. The other
members of the Junta sablerno are expected
. , to arrive hero from Iqulquu tomorrow. They
[ " will at once proceed to Santiago when the
f question of a now election and the reorgani
zation of the government will bo considered.
There Is no disguising the fact that there Is
a very bitter fooling against the Americans
on the part of the successful revolutionists.
This feeling is so strong that unless It Is
conciliated In some w.iy may seriously affect
American commercial Interests in Chill ( or
ome time.
The capture of the Itata llrst created the
Impression that the United States govern
ment was actively un favorable to the revo
lutionary cause. This impression was In-
tensiilod by the action of Admiral Brawn
when bo visited Qumtoro bay on August 20 to
witness the landing of Uonoral Canto's army.
The admiral dosiredjto see the manoeuvre and
Invited aomo of the ether naval ofllccrs in
Valparaiso to coma to the flagship San Fran
cisco and go to Qulntoro bay. Only the
Uormuti ofllcers accepted. The San I ran-
Cisco did not anchor1 at Qulntoro oay , but
fltcarccd around until the landing was af
fected and then headed for Valparaiso. A
boat was sent from the transport Coplapo to
visit tbo American crulsnr , but did not suc
ceed In getting aboard. Upon the arrival of
the San Francisco hero Lieutenant Dyer vis
ited Admiral Viol to sccnro permission to
send a cable dispatch to the Navy depart
ment. This visit has been construed by the
adherents of the Junta as proof positive that
Admiral Brown was acting ns a government
epy on the movements of the opposition , aim
no amount of explanation bas boon sufficient
to remove this Impression.
Then ether things have served to
strengthen the feeling against the United
States. Not the least Important among them
li the very general feeling that Minister Egnn
has boon an active partisan of Balrnaceda
and has used his iuduoncn In preventing t'to
State department from recognising the bellig
erent right * of the Insurgents. Acting Secre
tary Wharton's action In Ignoring Sonor.s
Montt nnd Foster , the congressional envoys ,
oven now when It Is n recognl/od fact that
they represent the only government of the
country , has Increased the feeling against
citizens of the United States. Admiral
Brown's action in refusing to glvo up the
political refugees who have found an asylum
aboard hU ships , has also added to the gen
eral irritation. It l.s the general belief that
Admiral Brown Is nctlng under Instructions
or by the ndvico 01 Mr. Euan. The minister
) s expected to arrive here tomorrow for the
purpose of consulting with the admiral ns to
the final disposition of the refugees now on
board the American ships. The feeling
against Egan is very violent and there is little -
tlo question that his recall will soon bo de
manded.
The Uorman admiral settled the question
us to thi ) disposition of the refugees so far as
ho Is concerned , by sending the corvette
Alexandrine to the north today presumub'y
to Callas with Sonar Claudia Vienna , the
recent president elect ; Admiral Oscar Viol ,
the ( vx-lntcndoiito of Valparaiso , Captain
Fuonts , recently In command of the torpedo
boat Almlranto Lynch ; Senor Sanchez , late
superintendent of the custom house nnd
others aboard. Mr. McCroory the United
Stntbs consul at Valparaiso is In high favor.
He rendered valuable services to persecuted
women nnd political rofutrees wlioio lives
vrora in danger. The records nt Santiago
oontlrni the statement that on August 18
President Bnlmaceda ordered forty-two
young mon to bo shot to death. They were
charged with haying engaged In a plot to
blow up a railroad bridge and thus prevent
the movement of government troops. Many
of them were boys of from 10 to IS years of
ago. One of them was whipped In order to
make him confess the plot. It Is charged ,
nnd from the records appears to bo true , that
only n small portion of the cruelties perpe
trated by the late government have been pub
lished. The congrosilonallsts mo giving
trials to all against whom offences are
charged and executions up to thU time had
boon remarkably fow.
Much pity Is foil for the families of the
Balmnccdlst olllewls who have lied the
country. Many of them have boon loft behind -
hind friendless and penniless. Tboro will bo
uo tight at Coqulnibo. The transport CoapopI
had taken on board a division of troops and
vras under orders to sail for Coqulnibo today
When a formal tender of submission was ro-
colvcd from Colonel Corvolllo commanding
the troops tboro. Uonoral Baquodano at
at once sent back orders for Colonel Corvolllo
to retain the command of his troops nnd to
maintain order In tbo district about Co-
quluibo. I have bcon assured by prominent
won among the congro.sslonallsU that within
month arrangements will bo tnado to hold
elections in all sections of tbo country aud
that as soon as the results of these elections
are known the junta will turn over the
country to the properly constituted authori
ties.

Ni'\v YOIIK , Sept. 2. An unconfirmed ro-
nort reached tills city yesterday from
Santiago that Dalmaroda , ox-dictator of
Chill , had boe'n Killed In the mountains'while
trying to effect his escape. According to the
story Ualmacoda loft Santiago on Saturday
night before the rioting commenced. Ho
took his family with him and carried a great
deal of personal property , Including a con
siderable sum of money and some valuable
Jewels. When ho reached a point a few mlles
outside the city ho and his family abandoned
the carriages in which they hail boon travel
ing and took n special train which was in
waiting to convoy them to Los Andes , thirty-
two miles northeast of Santiago ,
Hero Unlnmceda left his family and with n
companion started on Monday ifight to matte
his way across the mountains , his ultimate
purpose being to roach Liuonos Ayros. The
weather was bitterly cold and the snow on the
irrontul miulo travel very ulfllcult. Bulmaccda
rode u inulo , wnlcti was the only animal that
Is of any use In the mountain puss through
which ho was making his way. Tuesday
morning the muleteers begun to grumble and
wanted to turn bacK , as the weather was becoming -
coming so severe and the snow so dcop that
thi-y feared they would lose their lives.
Halmacoda ; knowing that almost certain
denth awaited him if ho returned , refused to
turn back , and In a lit of passion struck one
of the muleteers , who retaliated by drawing
a pistol and shootlne the ox-president on the
spot. His companions then killed Dalnm-
ceda'a companion , and after rilling tuelr
pockets , made their escape.
The bodies , according to the story sent
here , were found by n party of mountaineers
nnd returned to Los Andes. No further
particulars could bo obtained. Tbo news
created great interest In this city , but no one
seemed surprised , an It was generally be
lieved that the unfortunate man would either
bo killed or perish with the cold before ho
reached a place of safety if ho tried to make
his escupo by crossing the Andes. Mr.
Fowler , the manager for \V. K. Oraco & Co. ,
admitted having hoard the report , but said
that ho had received no con Urination of it.

WASHINGTON , D. U. , Sept. 2. At last the de
partment of State has board directly from
Minister Egan. The news came in the form
of a cablegram from Santiago dated Septem
ber 1 :
Decisive battle Valparaiso twenty-eighth
August. Revolution entirely successful.
K very thing tranquil. , TdAN.
The delay in receiving this report is owing
to the fact tnill telegraphic connection be
tween Santiago and Valparaiso , the western
cable terminus , has bcon cut nnd Just re
stored , and thru the line eastward from San
tiago to Buenos Ayres was Interrupted by
heavy snows in the mountains Although
the telegram Indicates the success of what
Egan describes as the revolution , he has not
yut in formed the Department of State whether
a government bos been s > ot up that may bo
recognised as the government of the people
of the country. Accordingly the department
will probably await further detailed informa
tion before according formal recognition of
the now government.

A conference was hold Tuesday afternoon
In ttia office of F. A , N.ish , general agent of
tbo Milwaukee road , which will have mi im
portant bearing on the question of freight
now In dispute between the Kock Island and
Milwaukee on ono sldo nnd tbo Union Paolllo
nnd Missouri Pnclrlc on the other.
Thu two former roads bavo determined to
force the Missouri Paclflo to turn over freight
to them on this sldo of the rlvor when con
signed to them at Omaha , which will deprive
the Union "Pacillc of the bridge charges ,
amounting to $5 par car or thereabout ! ) , The
Hock Island has been paying the Union Pa-
clllo about $15,000 per annum as brldpo
charges on freight turned over by the Mis
souri Paclflu at Council Bluffs and they bavo
resolved to snvo this to thomsoivoi by haul-
ug the freight across the bridge.
The Missouri Paclllo has declined to turnover
ever freight ou this sldo of tbo river on ac
count of Its agreement with the Union Paclllo
and the HOCK Island has refused to receive
freight at all unless turned ever at Oinatm
while the Milwaukee is receiving It under
protest ,
Tbo mooting held In Mr. Nnsu's
ofllcn was attended by General Manager A , J.
Barling , Superintendent of Motive I'owor J.
Is. Barraud Superintendent C. A. Uoodnow
of the Council BlulTtt division , all of the Mil
waukee road , and W. I. Alton , assistant gen
eral manager of the Kock Island.
The subject uudor discussion was the erec
tion of a freight depot on the "old nail works
sido" on Seventeenth street , Immediately
west of Wukelleld's lumber yard and extending -
tending along the track * for two or three
blocks ,
Iho gentlemen present were of the opinion
that the Union I ' .id Ik' wa * making n mittiiito
in pursuing Its present polloy as the rend *
worn In a position to wotcct tho'iisclves.
Thu froleht dttpnt question was debited In
all Its phrases but it was derided tn hold the
tin u I settlement of the mattur In nboynnco
until the general maungor of the Missouri
Pai'lllo has held n confiironcu with the gon-
crnl manager of ihc'tTnloti Pnclllc and do-
cldod on what will bo ilotio by those roiuU.
If this decision Is notialUfactory the UoiMc
I < lami and Mllwautf&d will at once pro
ceed to erect n fntfgnt depot of their
own nnd Imiulln tuelr own freight
Instead of having the Union Pacillc perform
that duty.
Alronuy the matter Has bcon taken hold of
by cltUcns and n movutla on foot to null the
two roads more land ( n the vicinity of the
null works properly , and ono gentleman , who
Is Interested in the progress of Omaha , remarked -
marked this morning that ho hud no doubt
the shippers of thU city would tinlto with
the Hock Island and Milwaukee In their contest -
test with the Union Pacific and divert freight
to those roads whenever it was possible to
do so. _

Cltic\oo , 111. , Sept. 3. The World's fair
commission met at noon today , The llrst
subject to come up was the reading of a com
munication from the general secretary of the
American Sabbath union , asking a hearing
for n delegation from that body ou the sub
ject of closing the exposition on Sundays.
Finally , after considerable debate on n mo
tion by Commissioner Do Young of Califor
nia and nmondcd by Commissioner Massey of
Delaware , it was decided tn appoint a com
mittee of three to confer with tba Sabbath
union delegation nud 11 x an hour during to
morrow's session at wnlch the commission
would hoar the delegation.
The memorial of tno union to bo presented
to the Columbian commissions sots forth that
the proper observance of Sun-lay nt the fnlr
will "Honor the low of God , by Whom Iho
Sabbath was made for man , that it will bo in
harmony with the letter and spirit of the
laws of all the states nnd territories ; that it
will respect the conscientious convictions of
all Christians who , forming n largo part of
the sterling character of the world , should
have their feelings considered ; that It will bo
in line with the Sabbath observance at the
Philadelphia exposition ; that it will follow
the examples set by , the English speak
ing nations at the Purls exposition of
1SS9 , who , with the official countenance of
this government , rnfusoB to uncovpr their
displays on Sunday ; that to open the exposi
tion ou Sunday would unjustly compel the
employes of the fair and the transportation
companies to labor on'that ' day ; that it would
lead to excesses by the various classes ; that
Saturday half holidays nnd the generosity of
employers may bo depended on to glvo all
employe * an opportunity to visit the fair ;
that this government cannot fiord to .sot
such un example to tno.nalions of the world ;
that all foreigners should bo given un oppor
tunity to SOB the "American Sunday" as It U
usually observed ; and , finally , that the event
which the fair celebrates was the result
of the supreme Inspiration of n Christian
man who took possossloli of the new world in
the name of the Son of Man , who Is also the
Lord of the Sabbath.1
Speaking of the matter , Colonel Shopnrd
said : "I bollovo llrmrythnt If the fair Is not
closed on Sundays the Lord will put Ills
curse upon the entcrpriso nnd upon the na
tion. Ho will send plagues nud pestilences ,
as hu did in the day of Pharaoh H , on the
contrary , the gates are closed on Sundays ,
the Dord will bless the fair and make it the
grandest success possible. You have no
Idea of the Intense feeling of tbo Christian
world on this subject. It is with us to a
man , nnd , should wo win. it will aejoico ns
ono man. Hence , it Is imperative that the
question should be decided at ouco and the
decision not put off until a later date. "
After hearing reports from the board of
control , president and director general , a re
cess was taken until a o'clock.
President Palmer , in his report , said In
part : "I congratulate the commission on the
way it has done its work. No candid par
son can look ever the proceedings and not bo
impressed with the work accomplished. The
responses of foreign governments have been
most , satisfactory and presages the greatest
exposition of its Hind ever attempted.
Twenty legislatures have made appropria
tions and thirty states and territories hnvo
made application for spaco. Tbo expense of
these can not fall short of f ,000,000. Con
gress , by u meagre appropriation , has tripled
the work , but it Is to bo hoped that the next
congress will do better. From estimates
prepared , It fs evident that the expense of
the commission must bo cut down , if
the appropriation of $ .VJr > 00 is to
bo sufficient. This question , gentlemen.
you will bo asked to seriously consider. I
recommend that the commission give the
question of award their careful considera
tion. Too much care cannot be exorcised.
The cost of bestowing awards has boon
estimated nt $700,000 , and I am of the opinion
that congress should bo asked for an appro
priation to cover that amount. "
The report of Director General Davis cov
ered the work done under his direction , the
facts of which have already boon given in
these dispatches.
The National Board of Lady Managers
met in the morning and clouted Mrs. Susan

Freight Association Defeats the Indiana ,
Illinois and Iowa.
TRAFFIC DIVISIONS TO BE AVOIDED.
Ncnt Plait of the Burlington nnd Atch-
isou to Monopolize tlic Groaui
of the Buniiiess Quickly
Killed.
CIIKHOO , 111. , Sept. 2. The application of
the Indiana , Illinois & Iowa road fur admis
sion to membership in the Western Freight
association Is likely to bo rejected. The
members bavo all voted on the proposition In
response to Chairman Mldgloy's ' communica
tion , and it is understood that several roads
voted against it. There is a fooling that the
whole movement Is a trick engineered by the
Atchison and Burlington roads to preserve
the advantage which they have enjoyed
heretofore in handling through business In
connection with the Indiana , Illinois & Iowa.
The luttor line trots o double proportion of
the through rates by drawing both from its
western and eastern connections , and Is thus
enabled to attract businos ? to its line by
paying a pnco for It. To stop this manipu
lation of rates the members of the Western
freight association have been ordered to fllo
statements of their divisions with outside
lines. Under the agreement a member is not
required to mnlto known its divisions with
ether members , and to avoid being compelled
to reveal the proportion allowoxl the Indiana ,
Illinois & lo\\a \ road , It Is charged that the
Burlington mi a the Atchlson Induced it to
apply for membership in the association. A
mooting of the Western Freight association
will bo hold next week , when the matter will
no doubt bo dually ubpoioJ of.
NO TAIITV HATES AOOl'TI'U.
\VesternPassongorassociutlon closed
Its session today. The proposition to estab
lish party rates was discussed nt consider
able length and llnally laid on the table. A
number of the roads are opposed to party
rates under any circumstances , and 03 tno
( iiostton of their legality Is .still pending In
the United States supreme court , where it
was taken by the Interstate Commerce com
mission , It was agreed that any action on the
subject in advance of a decision by the
court would not bo wise. One road
that Is growing moro und moro displeased
with the proceedings of the Western Passen
ger association is the Chicago , St. Paul &
Kansas City. It is the only member that Is
not also a member of the Western Traftlo
association nnd it Is becoming an Interesting
question whether this road will bo forced out
of the Western Passenger association or Into
the Western Tradlo association.

NHW YOUK , Sept , 2. Humors were current
toduy that there had boon a breach In the
Union Pantile scheme , and thnt the plan to
extend the Homing debt would full through.
A banking Institution which had mndo a loan
of 1100,000 yesterday demanded the money
from the company and failing to get it , sold
out the collateral. President Dillon said
today : "Tho Unoln Pncltic company , pending
negotiations now taking place , prornlbcd to
treat all creditors nliko. Ono banking in
stitution Insisted upon Immediate payment
nnd oxorciscd its power to realize upon Its
collateral. " Uoports that the creditors' com-
mlttco of the Union Paclflo would add L. J.
Flt/gorald und Henry B. Hyde to their num
ber at tomorrow's meeting were quickly de
nied by members of the coin mittoo.
The many rumors whloh have of Into boon
current In regard to a consolidation between
tbo Chesapeake & Ohio and the Ohio &
Mississippi roads are without foundation.
President Barnard of the Ohio & Missis-
alppi , whoso nresonce In London , coincident
with the visit of Cornelius Vandorbllt
nnd President lnialls , was looked
on as conllrmatlon of the rumor ,
has returned und U now In this
city. There was Home foundation for the re
port that closer arrangements would be made
between the Baltimore & Ohio nnd Ohio &
Mississippi , but no change bus resulted tn
the ivliittona of those roudi and no turlhor
developments uro uxpertod.
A dtutomont purporting to cotno from ofll-
clul sourcM wns published yesterday to the
olTrot that the Atctiuon management would
extend Its guarantee notes when they became
duo In November , it Is nlso stated that tbo
company "outside of offsets" had a Moating
debt of not moro than 3 .500,000. Vice Pres
ident Kuinhufdt who has buon In the city
slnco Saturday authort/os the following :
"The statement bus no foundation In fact ,
nnd owes Its origin to a source which honest
people honed had been killed off by the Im
proved market. "
The money advanced to the Francisco by
the Atchlson Is n snmlhg the floating debt of
that company can bo obtained at any time by
the Atclusori company , which has a standing
oifer of a good price for the recent author
ised Francisco bonds , but the management
believes it wiser not to sell the securities at
present. The statement that tno Atchlson
has no Moating debt other than was repre
sented by current accounts for which vouch
ers have not yet boon made up , is oflicinlly
continued. No negotiations uro pending for
any arrangement for the Denver & Ulo
Gran do road.
