VVASIIINCTON , Oct. 21. Further and per-
Mstont Inquiry of officers of the government
In regard to the Valparaiso Incident of the
lUth Instant shows conclusively that the
administration doc.s not regard It a simple
street roiv for which the Chilian government
cannot bo held accountable , but us an insult
to tbo prestlgo and ling of thu United States ,
calling for the most vigorous diplomatic
treatment.
Cowardly and Unprovoked.
The official report of the occurrence made
by Captain Schloy of the Baltimore , uftcr a
careful Investigation of nil the surrounding
circumstances , shows clcurly not only that
tbo assault upon the American sailors wns
cowardly and unprovoked , but that It was
inspired purely by hatred for tbo uniform
they wore und the country It represented , erin
in other words , that It was not an attack on
them ns Individuals but as representatives of
the United States. The report nlso indi
cates that the local police , instead
of protecting Iho Americans from tbo
violence of the mob in several instances as
sisted the onslaught. This , tbo report says ,
is demonstrated by the fact that several
sailors were wounded by bayonets such ns
are usually carried by the Chilian police.
The fact that the on.'y ' persons arrested were
the thirty-live American sailors who hud es
caped Injury nt the bunds of the mob
strengthens the view that the assault was
Intended as nu Insult to th > < United States.
The information at hand shows that so far
none of tlio Chilians concerned In the attack
have noun arrested und so far as known no
stops have boon taken to punish them In any
way for tholr notion.
The authorities ut Washington are very in
dignant at the apparent indifference dis
played by the Chilian government and Min
ister Kgan has been instructed to use prompt
and vigorous measures to secure proper
reparation. Hu has been fully advised of tbo
position of this government in the matter
uno has been instructed to acquaint the Chil
ian government there with the hope that tbo
matter may bo amicably adjusted with
out detriment lo the honor of
cither country. It is understood
that tbo president insists upon n
proper redress for the supposed insult to our
national honor and that unless It Is given
within u reasonable tlmo Minister ICgan will
ho recalled and all diplomatic relations with
Chill suspended.
Secretary Tracy said this afternoon
that no moro vessels hnd boon or
dered to Chili , and that ho did not know that
any would bo sent. The Yorktown Is now on
her way there , and the Boston is about to
start. Neither of them cnn possibly reach
there within n month. The Sun Francisco Is
ntCnllno , only four days' sail from Valparaiso
raise , but has not boon ordered thoro. Neither
has another vessel tbo Thetis now at Sun
Francisco. The sailing orders of the Boston
nnd Yorktown were Issued before the nttnck
on the sailors , nnd the main purpose of their
"detail wns to relieve the Baltimore and Sun
Francisco , which vessels nro to go to San
Francisco as soon ns relieved , to bo docked
nnd overhauled. It would seem , therefore ,
the Government does not euro to make any
belligerent demonstration toward Chill , but
prefers for tbo present to show its displeas
ure aud possibly resentment through diplo
matic channels. Special instructions as to
his course were cabled to Minlitor Ucun
yesterday.
Tbo only ofllclul message received today
I hearing W the Chilian trouble wns n cable
- " * mcssiiRO sent by Minister Kgan transmitting
Captuln Schloy'-s report in regard to the as-
Miult on the American sailors. It was ex
actly tbo sumo us the report made by Captain
Schluy to the secretary of the navy , which
wns made public ycstcrdny. Mr. Kgan mndc
no reference to the refusal of the Chilian
government 'o glvo snfo' conduct to the refu
gees nt the United States legation. Ho hud
previously advised the department to that
i-ffcct.
Weary of Chili's AITOKIIIICI- .
Ninv YOIIK , Oct. ! M. President Harrison
has L-rown weary of Chili's dictatorial and
nrrogant ti . .mont of our government , and
It U reported that ho baa determined that It
must stop , and stop quickly. Mora than this
he has demanded satisfaction for the recent
nssault upon our sailors ut tbo port of Val
paraiso , anil ho will hnvo It or Chill alone
will bo responsible for the consequences.
This is the declaration of u Washington cor
respondent of n morning paper , and who eon-
' Unties thus :
"At nn curly hour In the morning the con
tents of Captain Schluy's dispatch were laid
before President Harrison. The president
rend It carefully several tlmc.s , and his Indig
nation increased at each rending. No .special
reference was made to the matter ut the cab
inet meeting , but nt Its conclusion the [ .resi
dent hud u special conference with the repre
sentatives of Iho three brunches of the gov
ernment most interested. They were Secre
tary Tracy of the N nvy department , Mr. John
W. Foster of the State department , aud At
torney General Miller.
"Tlio details of the conference nro guarded
with the closest secrecy , but 1 am assured
upon the best authority that the president
has decided our government should lake
strong and au-grosslvo stops , I also learn
that President Harrison was the most out-
upolion advocate of this course.
"Kvon those present who know him Dost
were surprised at the eloquence ho exhibited
In reciting the wrongs done to our sailors
und the vuhonionco with which ho Insisted
that thosa wrongs should bo fully and satis
factorily righted. It was In a tone of exceed
ing bitterness that President Harrison re
ferred to Chill's continued hostility to us : a
hostility Hint had culminated at last in the
murder of ono of our sallow , the wounding of
n dozen or moro und the arrest and Incarcer
ation In Jail of thlrty-tlvo others.
"lie said the tlmo hnd como when wo must
teach the Chilian people thnt our patience In
dealing with thorn U exhausted. Wo have
de-ilt with thorn fairly and they bavo chosen
to act toward us lu n spirit of extreme un-
frloiuhiness.
"Ho Instanced their treatment of Minister
Kgaii. Then have subjected him to nn es
pionage aud Intuit bocmuo ho tins given an
asylum to certain Chilian refugees.
"It was * ugio < ted nt this point , by ono of
tho'gontlamon present , tlmt the unfriendli
ness of Chill had manifested luolf In still an
other particular. Tbn fact was then recited
that after the fall of Baltnaceala the IJulUd
States was the lint countrv to recognize the
new provisional govc.nu.ient. So far from
appreciating this uct of international comltv ,
tlio Junta has as yet failed to recognize It
through Its necmlltcd ropri&cnlHtlvo here ,
Honor Pedro Monti.
"There is no evidence that Honor Monti
has since presented himself at tbo State dc-
Vartuieut or In any other manner indicated a
desire to re-estnbllsn diplomatic intercourse
between his countrv and the United States ,
"Tho cotifuroiico lasted from half pastil
until 0 o'clock. Kverv phase of the situation
was carefully reviewed. It was decided that
our national honor demanded that wo should
act promptly nrd with corrospondlug linn-
ness ,
"Attorney General Mlllor , ns the legal of
ficer of the iulmlnUtrutlan , furnished the
needed points ot International law. It wns
agreed before the conference closed that the
attack upon our sailors was tantamount to
nn Insult to our llnir. The men assaulted
were suitors of the United States. They
were clothed In the uniform of the United
States , mid. as such , were supposed to rep
resent the dignity of the United States.
Will Demand Prompt Snllsf.iotion.
Although any Indignity to a pnrtv of
American citl/cns would bo rcscntod by the
government in tbo present case , the charac
ter of the otitrago wns intensified by the fact
that It was committed upon direct rcpro-
sontntlves of the country. Under the clr-
eumstances It wns decided that not a moment
should bo lost In demanding speedy repara
tion.
tion."Whon the conference closed n cable dis
patch was sent to Minister ICugan at San
tiago. It Instructed him nt once to commu-
n lento to the Chilian provislonnl government
the Indlgnntlon of the government nt the
assault upon the sanors of the Baltimore.
"It further Instructed nlm to demand ,
first , mi indemnity In money to bo paid to
the families of the dead sailors , nnd to the
families of such of the wounded ns may dlo ;
second , the arrest nnd punishment of tbo
participants in the assault ; and third , a
suitable upology to the United States.
"Tho tone of the dispatch indicated that
the administration will have no dewy in se
curing n settlement of the mutter. Chill
must do ns sno is asked to do nnd do it speed
ily. The situation is regarded ns ono of cx-
tromo gravity. "
These nro the Identical words which a
high official of the government used tonight
In commenting upon the question.

Special to Tun BIK. : ] Judge Foster , the
son of Mr. Julio Foster , who Is nt present In
Washington , is conducting the inquiry into
the nssnult committed on tbo sailors from tbo
strainer Baltimore In Valparaiso's streets
by tbo mob of Chilian man-of-
war's mon nnd sroughs. I tried
today lo got from him the
results of his Investigation and today ho In

making public any details of his Inquiry until
ho hnd completed it. Ho snys , however , that
the depositions signed by our suitors contain
no complaints ngninst the police , who nro sus
pected of uuyoncttingsomoof the Baltimore's
mon. Ho declares that bo Is unable to
ascertain climrly or definitely how the riot
began. Ail that ho nab so far bcon aulo to

between them and some Chilians that were

was knocked down. The row then

Judge Foster says that he Is extremely
desirous to got nt the botton of the unfortu
nate ntTnlr nnd especially to discover who
shot Boatswains Mnto Uognn. All the
keepers of the various drinking shops hnvo
boon ordered to appear before Judge Foster
to give their testimony. Beyond unofficial
knowlcilgaof the riot tlio Junta knows noth
ing. Judge Foster ; us soon us his Inquiry is
completed , will send In his report to the in-
tcndonte , who will in turn send his report to
the minister of foreign affairs ,
Minister ICgnn Is in the same situation ns
the Junta. He knows nothing of the affair
except that contained in Captain Schloy's
report , which I cabled you. This demand for
Indemnity is considered here unfortunate.
It in thought the action of the United States
Is too hasty nnd will add much to the embar
rass men t of Minister Kyan. Ho will need
all his tact to nrcsont the delicate
questions involved. Ho received tonight the
Stuto department cable. Personally , 1 bavo
endeavored to unravel the affair , but it is
n hopeless tusk to arrive nt any definite con
clusion. Captain Schloy bus called on tbo
chief official of the navy and praised the con
duct of the Chilian officers nnd sailors in
helping the Baltimore's men nnd desiring
that his thanks bo tendered > .o them.

PAKI.H , Oct. 21. [ Now York Ilornld Cable
Special to 1'nc BBK.I In his palace , from
which u view Is obtained of tbe Chninps
Kiysees , the Seine nnd nil that part of Pans
Inhabited by Americans , M. Hibot , minister
of foreign nffnlrs , was Rood enough to re
ceive mo today , lie spoke freely of Frencb
politics.
It Is not necessary to speak with him to
know tno difference existing between the
French politics of today uuU those of twenty
years. The furniture , tlio salons nnd the
surroundings tell the tale. An usher with a
silver neck chain introduces you first into n
largo salon , gilded throughout , and with
furuituro of rod satin , On the gilded tables
are immense Sevres vases. On
the wall is nn immense picture ,
representing the congress of Paris
in the time of Napoleon III. It was hero
that the minister worked formerly. Then n
secretary passes you into a second room. It
Is plainness itsolf. Tuorn are no gilding , no
Sevres vases , no arm chairs. You see n
heap of pnpors , seine in German , and maps
of Europe. Hero are ample evidences of a
busy man. Finally the door opens nnd the
minister advances toward you with extended
bunds.
Ho U a Simple Sinn.
M. Klbot is n very tail thin man. lie
wears n short beard and long hair , with only
n few gray hairs , notwithstanding ho Is past
50 years of ago. IIu is n simplu kind of a
man , which is scon by his lack of line
clothes. Ho wears n commonplace cravat
and in hi wliolo nttiro there is only
one piece of jewelry n gold chain across his
waistcoat. Ho is a big wor.kor , Judged by
the heaps of papers covering all the chairs.
IIo is also n family man. On a superb dcslc ,
in front of which the minister seats himself ,
In the center of packages of notes nnd docu
ments , which contain the policy of the coun
try and its : iO,000,000 of inhabitants , is a
puutogruph of Mine. Hibot , an American
woman of superior intellect , who often helps
her husband , acting as his secretary.
The minister seats himself in 11 hlg arm
chair , which by tradition buloiigs to the head
of the foreign ofllcc. Qohlnd him uro goo-
prnphical charts. Under his hand nro elec
tric bulls. Close to him nro speaking
tubes , telephones and the whole appa
ratus , which glvo seine impro.sslon of the
amount of news which leaves this room.
M. Klbot crosses his logs , which nro very
long , and places his hands on the two arms
of the chair , and with the "Kb , bien , " with
which the French nro in the habit of com
mencing conversations , nwnlts for questions.
AliNtrnct FIT noli Politics.
"You ask mo what nro tno rela
tions between Franco and Kussln , "
said the minister , nftor ho hud lis
tened to mo. "They are very cordial
very frank. Wo speak to St. Petersburg
with open hearts. Tnat wns n result not easy
to obtain. For a lone time they dolled us ,
especially at the nihilist attacks. Wo thought
moro than once that negotiations would have
to bo broken off. "
"Thoy have , then , existed for a long time ! "
"For years. The public knows nothing
and pays no attention to our work.Vo pre
pare the wires In ndvanco , never knowing
whether they explode mounds of earth or
mountains of rocks. "
"Do you bollovo in poacoi"
"Thoy all tell us they want It. We sUall
not commence war. Everybody knows
that wo hnvo reached n politi
cal and diplomatic stngo in the
affairs of Kuropo which permits us to desire
ponce with dignity , nnd with honor , without
considering the undercurrent of European
affairs. The Idea of the czar Is to follow out
his own purposes. "
"Then ho occupies himself with politics ! "
"It is ho nlono who directs the policy , lie
is his own minister of foreign affairs , and al
though not dealing directly with him , wo
know full well ho Is pacillc , but at the same
time ho wishes to reserve to himself full
liberty of notion. "
.tiiHt Uko William.
"And the ompororof Germany-docs ho
also scok the maintenance of pcacoi"
"Ho says so. nnd ho causes it to bo said in
so ninny ways tlmt I run obliged to believe It.
mm even to admit thu younij sovereign is sin
cerely pacific. But I also believe that on tlio
day when ho considers that peace cannot bo
obtained , ho will Do the first to attaclc. On
this suDjcct I have boon told of a very char
acteristic saying of the emperor , when stay
ing wifi the prince regent of Bavaria.
It was during a visit paid by William II.
to Prince Luitpold. Around the tea table
when the members of the royal family wore
assembled , Informally , they spoke of war.
In reply to a remark of the prince that Germany
'
many 'was In favor of peace the ompuror
stood up nnd said :
11 'Wo Holianzollems do not wait to bo at
tacked. Wo always attack first. "
"This declaration throw n chill over the
party. I attach greater value to this Informa
tion because It does not roach mo through a
diplomat lo Chan not. There was In the room
a princess of French origin , who told the
story to ono of her uncles who related it
during the maneuvers. Moreover the Ger
man emperor has crude , extraordinary ideas
that at times ono must bo sure of them to believe
liovo them. For example his majesty's fa-
vonto Idea I& that bo will visit Paris. Ho
docs not scorn to foresee what the result
could bo of snob an act. When ho went to
The Hague In July lust ho said to our ropro-
sotatlvo the night of tno torchlight proces
sion :
" 'It Is very strmigo that I cannot visit
France , which I so much wish to sco. '
"Tho minister replied very lumpilyI was
not prepared for the question winch your
tr.njosty asks me. It U too serious tor mo to
reply to without Instructions. '
"Mi MoUrund , the French minister , did
not know of n similar difficulty which oc
curred. It was In this room In which
1 speak that Count Minister , the German
ambassador , coma during thn stay of the
Km press Frederick In Paris to toll mo the
empress would bo happy to dno | at the Hly-
sco. I answered him :
" 'Count , the ministry of which I form a part
would rather send In Its resignation than
accept the responsibilities ami consequences
which such uu Invitation might hnvo. '
"Count Minister did not Insist. He hud a
respect for my opinion and acquitted himself
wall In this mission , which ha had under-
tuuen against hU will.

"Bach tlmo Kmporov William has found an

" 'You will ice that 1 shall have to cud by

"You sco that those arc not the ordinary
wavs of sovereign ! , und It becomes n very
dinicull matter to deal with. I think that ut
this moment the emperor Is llllcd with the
moat pacific intcntloui. " f
In saying thcso worJs Minister Htbot did
hear the fane of ft diplomat , but ho had
the looks of nn honest ntnfi who says
right out what ho thinks and who would like
to see things going M they ought to go.
Points to He Hottliul.
"Are you content with the relations with
other countries ! "
"Why. yes. You know that Franco does
not seek quarrels. Wo hnvo dlfllL-uItlos
with Kuglund on more than ono point of the
globe but wo hope to como to an agreement
on most of them. "
"Tlio Egyptian question will bo the hard

"Wo shall settle that nlso. You know our
relations with Italy. Wo hnvo not always
received from our neighbors what wo ex
pected to find , but the economic situation Is
not Improving with tnom. That Is what
they suffer from most. With other
powers wo shall have to settle the
big questions of treaties of commorco. Be-
yontl that 1 can tell you nothing , but bo as

M. Hibot rose nnd accompanied mo to the

"Then M. lo MInlstro , there is not a cloud

"I did not toll vou that the sky wns blue.
It Is gray tuoro'aro gray autumn days which

Work of tlio Contni ssioncrH.
The work of the American Immigration
commissioners la Europe will bo ended inn

London for America on Wednesday. Com
missioners Shultors , Cross and Powdorly
arrived In London yesterday. They have
visited Germany , Austriqand Italy , including
Sicily. Shultors wont to southern Kusslu.
The commissioners hnvo secured nn enormous
amount of evidence proving the charges
mndo by the Herald during the last few
years. Mover before have the inner work
ings of the system which vomits weak ,
vicious and criminal persons on American
soil boon so exhaustively , examined. Tno
commissioners are half amused nnd
half indignant at the Herald dis
patch from Milan intimating tnat
they were skylarking. I have abundant
proof that their work has boon thorough ,
arduous und that tbe result will startle the
country. Edward Fox , ono of the American
representatives of the World's fair in Lon

in person. It can bo predicted that the loadIng -

bo congratulations upon the formation of a
commercial union between Germany , Austria
nnd Italy. It is nlso expec.tod that his maj

It hns now boon definitely determined that
Prince BIsmorck will again mnko tils appear
ance In parliament. Ho 1ms been In com
munlcutlon with the leaders of thu conserva
tives and on the reichpartcl in regard to con
certed action against both the international
nnd external policy of the government.
The lower grain tariff granted to Austria
nnd the decrease in the wine duties given to
Italy will be used by Prince Uisinnrck and
his followers to induce coiifiorvatlvo support
against the treaties , The recent success of
the socialists In electing their candidates for
the landtag in Saxony and Baden have
alarmed the conservatives mid are generally
giving rise to fears of ' .ho rapid growth of
socialism under a tolerant emperor nnd his
policy. Blimarck's attitude towards the
commercial treaties and upon tbo labor
question has long been known. HU an
nounced opposition to the novcrniuent's
policy on the matter occasions no surprise ,
but tbo indications of his intentions to uhnl-
lingo the government's foreign policy und
even to go to the length of revealing tbo se
crets existing between himself and the em
peror has alarmed both bis friends and the
government circle.
The Hamtnirger Xachrichton ( Bismnrck
organ ) declares tlmt tno prince upon enter-
in jf upon u parliamentary conflict , will , if ho
finds it necessary , reveal thu causes of tlio
conflict between himself and tuo emperor.
SuhcniRH of the I.x-CliunoL-lIor.
A pamphlet written by Lothar Buohor , un
doubtedly under tbo direction of Bismarck ,
has made its appearance. . It abounds In com
plaints and threats directed against the em
peror ns altering Germany's foreign policy to
the peril of tbo existence of the omplie.
What tends to excite alarm in thu minis
terial circle regarding the prince's scheming
Is the knowledge ot the fact that tbo ex
chancellor has thn backing of the plenipoten
tiaries of Bavaria and Wurtombcrs and the
partial support of Saxony In the biiiidcsrutb.
Chancellor Von Cnprivl is conscious of the
latent or open sympathy of the fenoral gov
ernments with the ox-chancellor and has a
difficult part to play.
The Munchcnur Allgemoino Xoltung says
that the debates in the relchstag on the gov
ernment's external policy will bo specially
directed to fix the responsibility upon the
men In power who havo"nominally assumed
tbo direction of that policy , Every ono ox-
pccts that seine palnlul and exciting scones
will bo occasioned through the attitude of
the prlnco during tbo courao of tbo session.

is able to put on trading Intercourse with

I'rlntorH Threaten a Strike.
Meetings of the master printers hnvo boon
held to consider the compositors' demands
for nine hours for a day's work and
the ether demands formulated by the unions ,
nnd the action taken at thcso meetings will ,
it is believed , tend to avnrt the threatened
strike by arriving at some sort of Comoro-
mlio.
The Berlin printers union , acting in con
cert with the unions nt Loipslc , Breslau ,
Frankfort , Nuromburg , Hamburg , Main/ and
other countries , has given the employers a
fortnight's notlco that if its demands are not
conceded a general strike will bo ordered.
Upon receipt of this notlco the employers
took stops to protect themselves ngniiisl
the demands of their employes , and
sent emissaries to Austria to en
gage compositors to fill vacancies
in the event of n strike. Tlio Austrian
lirintors communicated this move upon the
part of the Gorman employers to the unions ,
und the Berlin union Immediately took action
to prevent Iho scheme from being carried
out. An arrangement wns ngrcod upon by
the Gorman nnd Austrian printers , by which
tbo latter made n simultaneous demand upon
"
their employers nnd gnvo u similar notice"of
a strike. In consequence of this counter
move the opposition of Iho employers
threatens to collapse. If the compromise.
Idea falls ot suci-oss the extraordinary spec
tacle will bo presented of the wholu printing
trade of Germany and Austria on strlko.
The emperor recently sent , to the ministry
of Justice a communication regarding the
growth of public debauchery In Berlin , nnd
pointing out the necessity of measures being

Loxnov , Oct. 21. [ NowYork Herald Cnblo
Special lo Tin : Dm : . ] Friends of Ireland
have great hopes that Michael Davltt will
mnnauo to bring about n conciliation in the
mitlomilist ranks. The hard words that have
been freely exchanged all around of Into in
crease the difficulty of Unvitl's tnsic , but ho
has got his oil cans nt work and thu troubled
waters may yet subside. The position Is
this : thuro uro now twenty-eight Parnollltos
who have hoisted the Hag of no surrender.
The ablest men among tboin uro T. Harring
ton nnd John Redmond.
Harrington , who is acquainted with the
real financial .state of the parly , is Inclined
towards peace. The smaller fry like Ilyrno ,
Loamy nnd Quliin could not nlTord to stand
out long. Some of them hnvo to rcceivo
pecuniary support whllo thnlr attumlanco U
required In parliament. If Redmond , Hnr-
rnigton and Ulck Power pronounce for n
truce it can tm arraigned at once , but the two
Rcdmomls have exhibited gloat bitterness of
lute and much tact will bo required to induce
them to shako bunds with Dillon nnd Hcnloy.
The Purnollltos nuiiibor fifty-three , two
scuts being vacant. Nearly all the boat
speakers of tlio old party und the mon who
know how to run the parliamentary mnchtno
"
are in this section. Hero are to "bo found
Messrs , O'Urlon , Dillon , Soxton. Hoaloy nnd
most of the Pnrnollltcs' active allies in times
past.
Pi-ncc I'ai'ty Han tlin Ailvnntagc.
Tbo greater part of the Irish press nnd
clergy are on then1 side and their inllucnco In
thu hoiiso of commons must greatlv outweigh
that of Mr. Pnrnoll's followers. Michael
Davltt bus already declared himself
in their favor. The Purnullltes have
no ronl leader. The master hand which
guided thorn Is gone. For them to prolong
the light seems useless. Neither sldo has
any money for political work. The funds in
Paris nru tightly locked up und even If they
wore released they could not bo applied to
electioneering business.
I buliovo the new secretary fo'1 Ireland
will DO Jackson. Ho Is somewhat of a dull
man tiut Obstinate and bind liondod ono
of Randolph Churchill'H discoveries. Ho U
in business as a tanner at Leeds but of
course is not nn nctlvo partner. While In
ofllco ho was n slow , heavy and poor speaker.
Ho Is of a bureaucratic nature and will
probably do his best to nvold coming into
collision with thu Irish party nnd to lead a
quiet life. No ono will ever nccuso him of
brilliancy but ho will do his work in ft
humdrum plodding way. After King Stork
