Judging from the length of the sKeleton , the teeth and the hair , found underneath the skul' ' In the sand , which was of n dark brown color , the conclusion Is that the boiica are these of a bov nboat 14 years of ago. It is about two months since tno river fell , leaving the bar on which the skeleton was found dry. and it is supposed to have been left tbcro at that time.

Tbo names of tno injured Americans are Hamilton , Tnloot , Turn- bull , Anderson , Davidson nnd Paa- tcr. Captain Sctiley of the Baltimore has again been assured by the intendento of the city that ho will make a thorough investi gation into the affair and punish all Chilians who are shown to have taken part in the as sault on the men. So far as thu matter has already been looked into all the facts go to prove that gross cru elty was practiced upon the Americans and that tbo murderous assault was altogether unprovoked. Evcr.v overntnent of- tlclal who has expressed rmy opinion on the sublet , has said that he regretted the occur- enco very much , and hopes the aggressors would bo severely punished. The Investiga tion by Captain Sahloy confirms the repot t cablud that the mob was com posed of Chilian sailors nnd boat men and that thu attack was planned. It is now alleged that Boatswain Regan was shot by a policeman. The American sailors were attacked nt various points throughout. the city. A number of foreigners , not Amor- deans , will testify to tba killing of Ueguu. In justice to the Chilians it must bo said that information hns been tecently received to the effect that a few of their aripy and naval ofll- cers and seamen displayed bravery in trying to hide the Baltimore's men from tbo fury ot tbo mob. The bettor educated of thu Chilians express great regret at tbo event. In no case was ono of our men armed , nnd all of the Injured , a * cabled , were stubbed in the back. Captain Scnloy advises the com ing here of the admiral , to aid oy his pres ence In seolnc full Justice done to the victims of the cowardly , bloodthirsty robbers. The elections throughout l hlll mo particu larly noteworthy from the fact that for the lirst time in the history of tbo country tbo voters' privileges have been unrestricted. The elections nro carried on with tbo utmost quitidc. Senors Catlos , Waliter , .Martinez , Melchcr and Tore , pioralnent conservatives , it is now conceded , have been defeated. The combined parties posing as lib erals have a majority of thirty in the houbo of deputies. The senate also has a UTJoral majority. Tbo majority of thu electors of course arc also liberal and this means that a broad-minded man will bo chuscn a.s tbo next president of the country nnd that moro amicable relations with the United States will bo established. The conservative - -servativo pa-ty has , It is said , elected only two senators. The appeal by the political prisoners to the supreme court against their detention has resulted in a decision that tbe detention is illegal according to Chilian laws. Tbe junta , however , has Issued a decree suspend ing the law. It provides for trial twenty-four dnvs after arrest in the cases of those ar rested for crimes committed during Baltiia- ceda's regime. These offenders will have their cases submitted to the tribunal In due order. //J * ; f > TIIK I'/Jl'MCr.l.V. Gorman Demands an Army OHicer' * Dismissal.

The monument to the late Henry \V , Grady was unveiled In Atlanta today at naif past 1 o'clock. Tbo streets cf Atlantn were thronged with vis itors from ovcry state In the south. The monument was mi veiled by Miss Ousslo Orady. Never in the history of Atlanta has a more imposing procession passed through Us streets than the parade which passed from the capltol to the monument. Tlio confuderato volcraiis and members of the Grand Army of the Republic marctiod together and were greeted wth applause all along the lino. Governor D. n. Hill of New York , the orator of the day , rode In the first carriage drawn by four white horses. Oy his side was Governor Northen of Georgia. When everything was in readiness at the monument , the band struck up "Dixlo" ana the treat throng went wild with enthusiasm. Colonel Charles S. Northern , president of the Grady Monument association , presided. Pravor was offered by Hov. J. Vf. Lee of this citv , after which Mr. Fulton Colvlllo , In be half of the Monument association , told the storv of Us constitution. The monument originated in a call by the young men of Atlanta the dny after Mr. GraJy's death. Introduced tlio Orator. Hon. Clark Howeil , Mr. Grady's successor as managing editor of the Constitution , and speaker of tbo Georgia House of Representa tives , Introauced Governor Hill , saying in substance : It best bellts this occasion that today's me morial oi.itIon hould bespoken by HIM nhtcli uro akin to. yet not of , tbo south.

Let mo answer It by In- \olcliu tlio spirit whicn pervades the pnbllo addresses nt tbe hero In whoso nan o wo are assembled and who died , as Inscribed on tbN monument : "Literally Loving u Nation Into I'caeu. " There are those of tlio north who would not bo entitled to speak , and to them tbo pica for sectional fraternity Is lost In the rook-bound prejudice which strl\e to put out tbo s icred lire of eternal nrnthorhood. Tuuro are those In the boiilh whoeould not speak f or ( i lady , and from them hlsolToits to re-establish national unity In sentiment as well ns n into met llttlo eneourazonient or evoked but little sympathy. Hut , thank ( iod , those two types .standalone for themselves and not for tno people of either section.

" Governor flilt was greeted with great en- enthusiasm. Governor Ilill'H Address. Opening with a reference to tbe singularity of tbo occasion tbo dedication of a man u rnent to "a plain citizen of tbo republic , ' Governor Hill said : Yet beside this tomb , before this si lent to lieu of a nation's mingled grief im'l ho'im'-e , no wreatcr tribute could I pav to Henry W. Grady's memory and jiubtlu services , than to lepeat the story of his bravo life That life HO brief ami yet so full Is the history of a noble purpose born In tbo geneious Impulses of a warm anil patriotic heart , stirred by the sufferings and dosnalrof bis ptrlcUen country men , sustained liy his coiilldcnce In the south's resources and the south's manhood , aided by bis own great ccnltis anil practical energy , and accomplishing within his lifetime Its great end tborestora tion of tbo jouth's prosperity and the com plete reconciliation of north and south. In row II vos of two scnre years has so much good been crowded : In few ha\o such creat results followed an earnest consecration to tbo putillu wolturc. With tlia unveiling of this herottu bronze , as the Just : ommemor.itlon of a 1100- ple's love , fitly may wo recall tbe circum stances of that nnlijuo career and the good deeds of that noble life. Grady chose bis profession well. No otbor would have suited so well his varied talents and hU Intellectual genius No other would tm\o offered tno same opportunity Corhlsplil- iaiithnipv and his Influence , llarely had bo finished bis apprenticeship when be wrote : " 1 have seen the fie d of Journalism so en larged , Its posslulllt es so widened , and Its Inlliienco so extended that I ha\o como jo belle\o earnestly that no man. no matter what his calling , bis elevation or bis opportunity , can equal In dig nity , honor and usefulness the Journalist who comprehends his position , falrlj measures his duties , and gives himself entirely and un- selUsblv to his work. " That Iswhutllradv did. llube an when Journalism In the south was at a Ion ebb when readers were scarce and miHsp.ipci enterprise w as stagnant lion Industry was par.dlzcd and trade stood still , llo left off whenjoimiallsm was vfxoroug. jo- MJiirceful and Influential , when commerce nourished and Industry was maUng great strides , when i-rosperlty bad replaced potnrty and hope and energy bad tal.on the place of despair and Indifference. In this transforma tion of conclltlons ho was tbe most conspicu ous participant. True to his conception of Journalism , loyal and unselfish In his work , he turned the wonderful power of tbo press to tbo noblest uurposus the recovery of his stricken land from the blight of war , the 10- stor.it Ion of its prosperity , the dovolopn cut of Its resources the resignation of Its peopio to their hardships and the kindling of now am bitions and new ( deals. About Newspapers. Calling Henry W. Grady a typical Jour nalist , Governor Hill went on to toll about newspapers , their birth and growth. He re ferred to the gathering of news , the vend ing of uubliclty , and saia to that commerce there are now joined some hlelior functions of the politician and the publicist In such a quadruple alliance that within a lifetime of still active men the Uailv press seems to have created a new era and to bo remolding our social and political character Into its own likeness. It was this larger conception of tbe possibilities of jour nalism wnluh inspired and ennobled Grady's efforts. Speaking of the contents of the modern paper , ho said : What our own newspapers omit , rather than what they print. Is blameworthy The London Times'report of political debates InpirlU- ment and upon the stump are Incomparably superior In every respect to the corrosnond- Inc reports of nny American journal. Orlvnl Is excluded. Hoth sides are prosontol with eijual fullness and purfeot fairness In the speeches of the few real lenders. Not one American journal pretends to do Its readers this service : though space enough Is liberally given , but glxon to Itself and Its editors and reporters talking around and about the mat * tor. When all American statesmen am edi tors , however , our political parties will cease to suffer from an exclusion of tlru-ruto cham pions to put their case to the widest audience. I pay for many American nuuHpaperstogUo mo all the news of tbo world , Hach news not ono of them supplies not even these which are making colossal fortunes for their propri etors Any jmirnalUt at bis best can but snow us the world In which hodwclU , In which his own thoughts live and move- news only from tbo worlds whicn ho hlnuolf has eyes to sco. The future vcopo of the dally journal Is doubtlets vastly further ceyond tno reach of our present Imagination.

GENERAL SCHOFIELD'S ' ANNUAL REPORT , Orff.inl7.er Harrington Ho port-4 Con * ccrnltii ; tlic Location ol Local Weather Itnrcans lluccnt Army Orders WiiHtil 1151 on Notes. D. C. , Oct. 21. Major Gen eral Schoflcld , commanding the armv , has made his annual report upon the operations of the army to the secretary of war. Ho reviews the Indian disturbance of hist win ter. Ho recalls that nearly one-hail of the Infantry nnd cavalry of the army was concen trated at the scone of disturbance , and then says that this campaign teaches the lesson that the entire military force ot the United States would be wholly inadequate to prevent - vent great loss of life nnd damage to prop erty if a general Indian outbreak should oc cur. However , ho believes that no conslder- nbla number ot the Sioux Intended hostili ties against the United States unless driven to it by hardship. Ho says : There Is , hence , a well grounded belief that , by the constant exorcise of discretion In the management of Indians , coupled with justice in ull dealings 01 the gov ernment with them and the presence of ti sufficient military force to over-awo the turbulent minority among them , there need bo no serious apprehension of au extended uprising of the Sioux nnd probably not of any other Indian tribe. Ills also uell worthy of the most serious consideration that , by the addition of a few thousand men to the en listed strength of the army , wherooy a sulll- clent force might at all times bo stationed in the vicinity of the great reservations , the damage of an uprising and resulting destruc tion of frontier settlements , would be en tirely removed , and tho'great cxuonso of transportation of troops from dis tant parts of the couutry en tirely avoided. Major General Schoflold then makes a strong plea for u reorganization of the army. The report notes with satisfac tion tbe adoption by congress of a definite policy of improvement of the coast defenses. Touching the enlistment of Indians in the army , the report says the policy has not yet progressed very far in its execution , but the results have been entirely satisfactory and It should be adhered to. Complimentary reference is made to the high state of efficiency of the artillery , In fantry nnd cavalry schools. Reference Is made to the number of mili tary posts abandoned during the past year , as serving to mark the advance of settlement ' ment and'the subjucatlon of roaming Indians , and liberal allowances are recommended for larger nnd permanent posts ns being in the interest of true economy. The report sug gests a reorganization of tbo infantry and the artillery , and an increase in the pay of non commissioned ofllcers. General Seholield endorses General Crooks' recommendation concerning the fortification of Sap Diego , Cal. Touching the discipline of the army , the report says : All the reports show that the general state of discipline in tno army is ex cellent , the ono lamentnblo execution being that of the Fourth cavalry at Fort \Valla AValla. The'measures which have fceen adopted for the improvement of the condition of the enlIstedf mori atTd for the exclusion of undesirable characters from enlistment have worked together to clnvnte the character nnd increase the contentment of the soldiers , without In nny measure , it is believed , im pairing their efficiency. The winter cam- paicn against the Sioux developed tbe most cheerful endurance of the greatest , hardship * , as well as great gallantry lu action , and a total absence of desertions while in the presence of the enemy JIKCEXT .l/M/r ( jrilEltS.

Harring ton , the chief of the weather bureau , a sj > o- clal report of the operations of the bureau since Its transfer to the Department of Agri culture , July f , last. Mr. Harrington says the service has been reorganized with a view to carrying out the expressed intention of congress to especially develop nnd extend Its work in the Intero'st of agriculture. The observing force , outside of Washington , was organized after the transfer bv the ap pointment of "Loral forecast oflloials. " These ofllcials were assigned to duty nt the largo cities in thu country , with authority to make predictions for their stations and vicinity , giving the weather moro In detail than tbo Washington forecasts , whicn they would thus supplement nnd amplify. There have boon several .signal display stations established upon tbo request of In terested parties , who iigreed to have thu signals displayed without cost to the govern ment. The dally cotton region reports consisting of maximum and minimum temperatures and rain fall has mot with great favor. A service similar to that now carried on for the benefit ot the cotton interests has boon requested for the sugar and rlco inter ests of so alii Louisiana , nnd It will be estab lished. Attention has been specially directed not only for the Improvement of the weather forecasts but their wider distribution , par ticularly In thoagricultur.il districts. Moro attention has been given to thu Issue ot the forecasts for n lonirer period in advance , which accompany the general synopsis of the weather conditions , and which , wuen practicable , are added to tbo predictions for the several states. Since the lirst of July new weather ser vices have boon orgauUcd in Arizona , Cali fornia , Florida , Now Mexico , North Dakota , Oklahoma , Utah , Virginia , Washington , West Virginia , iml Wyoming. The most practical and most highly complimented portion tion of the exclusive work of the state ser vices Is the issue of the weekly weather crop bulletins.

No other country certainly surpassed us In tbo Inventive genius of Its cltl/ens or In the business sagacity of Its capliallsts.

I can understand bow our success should bo doubted and our failure accented with satisfaction In Wales , but I cannot understand how any American can take that \ low of the questioner or why lip .should always approach e\ory evi dence of the incee-'Sfnl establishment of this Industry In this country nltb a disposition tn discredit and inject it.
