CHILE WttLAPOLOGIZE.
Unqualified Expression of Eegrct for
the Baltimore Affair.
BRAZIL AND THE VATICAN
Bamor that the Pope ITilt Eimmmaal
cate President Fleaetto and Bit Cab
inet Separation of Church and
State the Cans.
Valparaiso, Jan. 5. The Chilean gov
ernment has cabled orders to Minister
Pedro Montt at Washington, making a
sincere apology to the United States for
the unfortunate and deplorable attack
upon the Baltimore sailors on Oct 16
last The apology is unqualified in its
character. Other matters which have
been in dispute between Chile and the
United States are to be speedily con
sidered by the new administration.
From semi-official sources it is learned
that the reason why the Santiago police
are kept in the vicinity of the American
legation is that the intendente of the
city is in constant receiptor letters con
taining threats to burn and sack the le
gation. The government desires to
have the police near at hand so as to
prevent the execution of any such
threats. It is no secret here that many
of those whe cherish the idea of war be
tween the United States and Chile are
friends ol Bulmaceda.
Brazil and the Vatican.
Rome, Jan. 5. It is rumored that the
relations between the Vatican and tho
Brazilian government are so .strained
that a rupture is imminent. , The pope,
it is said, has intimated that he will ex
communicate President Piesotto, his
cabinet and the members of the Brazil
ian congress unless measures are taken
to renew the former relations letween
the church and state in Brazil. The Vat
ican has received numerous complaints
from the Brazilian clergy of the disas
trous effect upon church interests of tlw
policy of separation adopted by the re
public. It is said that many churches
are withont pastors, and the seminaries
are being dwarfed, because the govern
ment refuses to continue contributions
for the maintenance of the clergy and of
chairs in the seminaries.
Heartless Conduct of a Ship's Captain.
Dublin, Jan. 5. A Iwat's crew of six
men landed at Gronore at 2 o'clock a
m., after tossing on the waves of the

were from the steamship Eleanor. Sun
day night a crazy passenger jumped
overboard and the boat's crew was sent
to pick him up. When they found him
their ship had disappeared, and soon
after the rescued man died.- The sailors
had a fearful night's experience, and
when they reached shore were badly
frostbitten and completely exhausted.
Great indignation is expressed against
the captain of the ship for deserting the
boat's crew in the midst of storm and
darkness.
An Unruly Prisoner.
London, Jan. 6. Mr. Shaughnessy,
the New York detective who is here
looking after the cases of the American
sriminals, O'Brien and Ashforth. whose
extradition will probably bo completed
wiuuu a iui 1 ujjit, in eii'it ttueu wiiu in
fluenza. O'Brien is justifying his repu
tation for ugliness by uttering threats
that he will kill District Attorney Ham
ilton of Albany on sight st the first op
portunity he has. Hamilton, who has
sailed for home, was untiring in pushing
the proceedings against O'Brien and
conducted the case in a most masterly
manner.
Antipyrine Proscribed.
Berlin, Jan. 5. One of the most ex
tensively need medicinces in cases of in
fluenza has been antipyrine. The phy
sicians uttered repeated warnings of tho :
flnncrm-fl r,f rmro-rtfacsinrial fldiiiiniofri- !
tion of this secret drug, but apparently
without much effect It is now
announced by various doctors of un
questionable reputation that several
deaths have occurred . which to their
positive knowledge were due to the ex
cessive use of antipyrine. It is strongly
urged by some that the government pre
vent the sale of the drug except upon a
physician's prescription.
De Maupassant Mad.
Paris, Jan. U. Guy de Maupassant,
the famous writer, is mad. He was at
Cannes at the time his case grew desper
ate. But before leaving f aris for that

for the baroness. He tried to murder .1

him. A fortnight after this attack of in- i
sanity he disappeared. Some time after j
he was found on the top of a mountain, ;
quite insane.

JUSTICE MILLER'S ESTATE.

Keokuk Property t'nproduellre.
Keokuk, la., Jan. 5. Many friends
of the late Justice Miller at his old boms
have received copies of the appeal for aid
for the widow Bent out from St. PanL
It u understood that its circulation by
mail is confined to the eight states which
composed tho circuit of the dead Jurist.
Persons here familiar with the widow's
affairs say the death of her husband left
her practically penniless. The home
that the couple occupied in Washington
is heavily incumbered, while the prop
erty of the estate in this city is nonpro
ductive, consisting largely of unim
proved real estate. The report has been
extensively circulated that the real es
tate holdings of Judge Miller in this
city were valuable, but men m a position
to know say that it is not true, and that
the rentals are not sufficient to keep up
repairs and pay taxes on the unimproved
portion.

Tho Ohio Senatorial Contest Closer
Than Ever.
SHERMAN MAKES A GAIN,
Bnt Foraker's Friends are 81 111 Hopeful.
The Republican Caucus Called for this
ETenlng -Seven Legislators Classed
as Doubtful. '
CoLUiisrs, O., Jan. 5. At last th
date of the senatorial caucus has been
set and at 8 o'clock t Wednesday night kt
the hall of the house of representatives
will be fought withont glove. Senator
Ohl of the caucus committee and Mr.
Dougherty of the house with President
Harris of the senate and Speaker Laylin
met and agi-etd upon this step. The
Foraker men have made a desperate
fight to put off the caucus as long as
possible, preferring Thursday, but with
good grace they take the decision. Tho
contest remains about the same as since
the legislative caucus, or if there may
be any favor, Sherman has gained it.
Senator Rawlins of Clark county, who
has been classed as a doubtlii i oraker
man, has announced himself for Sher
man. Foraker feels as confident as ever,
saying that he has enough to win, but
the desertion of Senator Spencer during
the past few days should give him no
cause to feel jubilant.
Doubtful Members.
The members yet considered doubtful
are Representatives Clapp, McCoy, Des
sincer, Lutz, Dunn and Pudney, and
Senator Lampson is also yet claimed by
the Foraker men. Most of these doubt
ful gentlemen are, indeed, claimed by
both sides, and the fight is so close that
there may be some embarrassing situa
tions before the end is reached. It is
not impossible that Messrs. Welch and
Dicks, who announce that they will vote
respectively for Governor-elect McKin
ley and Secretary Foster, may hold tins
key to the situation. While a deadlock
is not probable, it is not by any means
impossible that the contest may drift
into a condition by which neither of the
pronounced candidates can secure a ma
jority of the caucus. 7. , ,

Bynum In State Poll ties. r
I Indunapous, -Jan. 5. It . semi,
officially stated that Congressman By
num will soon be annonnced as a Demo-'
cratic candidate for nomination for gov
ernor. It is known that Mr. Bynum ia
very much disappointed over the defeat
of Mills for speaker and the appointment
of committees which bronght new men
to the front, to his own disparagement,
and this is said to be the chief reason
why he is now disposed to turn bis at
tention to state politics.

The regular ticket was said to be in fa
vor of the "close corporation policy,"

The Wolf rest in New Mexico.
PmsBCRO, Jan. 6. Paul Hacke of
this city, who has a kennel of wolf
hounds at Greensburg, received a letter
from a nuuiljer'of planters in a remote
section of New Mexico asking him to
send five of his wolf hounds to that ter
ritory. The letter states that during
1891 150,000 calves and cattle were
killed by wolves, which entailed
a loss of $1,000,000. Every rem
edv which - the planters havo
thus far tried has failed in the ex
termination of the pest, and the planters
request Mr. Hacke to send a pack of hU
hounds to them in the hope that through
them the loss of cattle and money will
be lessened. Mr. Hacke erdered hi3
keeper at Greensburg to put five of tho
hounds under training for the Mexican
planters. Mr. Hacke is certain any ona
of his hounds can, singly and alone,
tackle and kill the largest and most
vicious wolf.

nearly one hundred Mormons accused

oath law, which provides that so long as

mrtuer practice ana teaching or polyg
amy not only in Idaho, but throughout
