This Time in the Form of the Offloial Oorrospondonco Over the Aflair. Showing How Ohili Spurned * , tbo Good Offlcea of the United Sta'os. And Convinced the Oommis- fcioner She Waa Able to Manage Her Own Affaire. Whereupon ThUGovormnont Onoo Moro Took Its Scat. National AaaoctatodPrcu. WASHINGTON , March 28. The state department communication which the president transmitted to the house was in response to the resolution passed yesterday requiring any proto col or ether dosuniontasigned by Tros cott relating to pdaco between Ohili and Poru. The response states that no protocol ordocument of that nature bra boon received from Troscott , and no nforniation haaboen received from him or any American representative in Chili or Peru that such a document has been signed. The president , how- eror dooms it proper to submit copies of correspondence with Trescott since his last communication to the house on thu subject. The first document submitted is a telegram from FrelinghuysenJ to Troscott , dated February 4th , saying the president instructs him to say the United States government only pro poses to give counsel and aid negotia tions. Chili must determine whether it is wise to accept counsel. No part will bo taken by the United States in negotiations based on the surrender of Tarapaca aud the payment of 20- 000,000 indemnity. The demand ia looked upon as exorbitant , and the time is come when Chili can afford to be magnanimous and just. A telegram from Frelinphuyson to Trescott , dated 21st of February , permits Trescott to assist to a liberal war indomity , but says the cession ot Tan pi a must not bo assented to without further consultation with this government by cable and aaya it is not possible the creditora of Peru may uiaintim its revenues , which are hypothecated to thorn. The telegram closes by saying : "Tho president > urged moderation on the part of Ohili. " Next follows a long letter from Frulinghuyaen to Trescott , dated February 24th , in which he reiteratoa Iho suggestions of the dispatches N mentioned , and says the president is very desirous of having the good offices of the United States made \-t \ available in restoring peaco.ibut.ia unwilling to boeoino the medium for Bfi a proposal which he thinks BO enor 01 mous that it cannot be entertained tr by Pertif He is still of thn opinion CO that it would bn the part of wisdom h for Chili to accept from Peru a just thM indemnity in monoyguarantcod If in sisted , by temporary tu upon occupation dc tion of territory , rather than to pre- dcB omptorily demand cession of territory. On the other hand he is convinced H11 that the United States has no right St ki either by treaty stipulation or public in law to impose upon the bilJigorents unasked , ita views and it hay no in terests at stake so commcnsura'o with the evils which might fol Na low interference , which would authorize it to interpose further than so as indicated. If Chili is indisposed to listen to hia advice , the president in will no.t tike part in negotiations he based on both surrender of Tarapaca ar and payment of a largo indemnity. th To demand of Peru the surrender of beSt a valuable province and the payment St Lt § 20,000,000 in ton years , with a disorganized government and des poiled territory , is to aak what she cannot render , and the president feola that Treacott may frankly pa of [ and in a friendly spirit bring these til considerations btfoie the in nistor , of foreign affairs in conversation with him. It ia understood that all Peru int west of the Andes is in occuoattuii by an Si Ohili , and all care in maintaining thu de government and protecting society is thrown upon the htatilo occupiers. Chilean representatives claim that Nai only the Chilean bayoiiot a'avcs Peru from anarchy. If this bo true , ono IVt of four things must follow : First , foi armed occupation must bo thu govern avi ment ; or second , the invader must bo driven out by force ; or third , Chili en will withdraw , claming to much of it 8W aa it desire. * , and le.tvo the in rest to its fate , or fourth , we an honorable peace must bo mude. Chilli [ c.iu hardly the first , and will not admit the etc- .v end possible , but cventa in the his tory of those two powers show that enRi what seems impossible has taken Ri place. The third alternative seems ap impracticable. If it were Chili could fit not justify itself before the world , an and if it should eventuate in the ob- ha aorption of Peruvian territory , whoso thi pr ducts are pledged to creditors , it Tli could not be done without raising a of t grave.question in the future of Ohili , teby < which the United States as a friend of by that energetic , industrious people P.dii would wish to have avoided , The dii fourth alternative is , in the president's opinion , the wisest course and one ho dc- Na tires to sue brought about by peaceful influences. The traditional 11. : attitude of this country toward sister . republics is ouo of peace. While wo an would draw thorn nearer to us , we do bore not propose ( o force our \ iows upon them or act as arbitrator or umpire unless by the desire of both parties , or by controlling interests of our own , The letter here again urges the ro ; views already expressed that Tara- nu paca should not bo demanded by at t Chili , unlesa it should eventuallyjbe- coino Chilean through the inability ol Peru to pay a nvwonnb'o indemnity , to bo agreed upon. The president doea not presume to a/ what the indemnity should bo , but loavt it to the discretion of Troscott to as sent to tender the good offices nf the United States to Peru on a b Ms of * very liberal indemnity to Chili. If Peruvian territory is spared ; if Ohili insists on retaining any part of the territory whoso products are claimed to bo hypothecated to creditors of Peru , the president in unwilling to involve the United States in the complications which might onsuo. Ho prefers to reserve to this government the full right to determine its course should such complications arise. The next document is it tolognim to Frolingliuyson , received on the 25th of February , in which ho says Chili refuses to modify the terms of peace ; that slio allogcH they nro better than thu terms oifored at Lima and Arica. The terms , ho says are extremis , but Chili js strong and Peru so crippled that more interven tion will have no effect. Ho asks in * struct ions by cab'o , and adds that ho thinks there is no usorcinainingthcro , nd closes by asking if ho shall go lo Peru and Bolivia , and whether Walter lilaino shall remain or return. To this Secretary Frolinghuysen replied that it is preferred that both remain for the present , and report the situa tion from time to time , Jos ng no op portunity to carry out the president's views as indie ited. The next is a telegram to Froling- huyson , dated March 5h , which says ho carried out his instruc tions , but tha terms will not be modified by Chili and adds : The publication of the instructions to mo and my Confidential Telegram has made it impossible to secure modifi cation. I will stay ns directed , but I think with the information I have I ban bo more useful in Washington. " On March 15th , ho telegraphed ho had a full and friendly interview with the minister of foreign affairs , and as a result , thinks his presence is requir ed in Peru. Bluino , ho nays , will go to Bolivia and thenjo join him in Porn. Ho closes by saying : "You need have no fear that I shall depart from your instructions. " Cool Robberies. Nation * !
