OMAHA , Oct. 29. To the Editor of Tun
Bnr.i On behalf of the people's independent
party 1 nsk space to denounce the outrageous
nbuso of power which characterizes Mayor
Cushlng's appointment of Judges and clerks
of election. Our party furnished his honorl ( )
with n lln of names which we had carefully
selected to represent us In the booths on
election day.Vo were modest and asked
only for one-ninth of the judges and ono-
Blxth of the clerks. With the exception of n
few names this bus been denied us. The
voting booths have boon stuffed with demo
crats of the rankest kind , and It looks to us
ns though it were the Intention of counting-
out rather than votlng-m candidates. An
honest , ballot and a fair count can only bo
hod whore representations of the contending
parties can watch ouch other. God knows
wo cannot trust the democratic machine.
Wo denounce Mayor Gushing for nn out
rageous act of political shame ; an act which
will prove an otcrnM stigma and disgrace
which will stay with him while ho lingers In
the private life that it will forever consign
him to. Wo appeal to all lovers of fair play ,
to all citizens who rccognl/o the Importance
of a pure ballot to rebuke this viio political
trick. The rank and llio of the democratic
party nrowo Icnow.anxioUs fora falrcotintlt ;
Is the machine ut which wo and they kick. If
our candidates , Dr. Conkling and the others ,
nro deprived of n single vote by this villain
ous act of abuse of power , you , democrats ,
will bo responsible on election day for the
debuuchery of our city politics.

11 KB. I The sentiment in favor of Judge Post
Is ranidly growing stronger in this city and
county , and there is abundant reason to believe -
lievo that ho will run fur ahead of his ticket.
The double loaded dose of malignant fiction
published in the World-Herald regarding the
judge's private lifo nas acted as n boomerang
here. It bus created n strong feeling in
Post's favor among the political classes of
the county and lowered the already low esti
mation in which the World-Herald is held in
this community. There is hardly a demo
crat who , when asked his position on the supreme
premo Judgeshlp , but declares emphatically
tor Post in preference to voting for Edgorton.
Many democrats in this < : ity who will not
vote the republican ticket say that they can
not swallow Edgorton and prefer not to vote
at all rather than cast their ballots for him.
Almost every leading democrat in this couutv
clearly show that they favored Post.

CHILI IS INCLINED TO BE ARROGANT ,
Uctnnndfl nftho United States Not Ac
ceptable to Chilian Authorities
Jiullulnt Authorities IIIVCN-
the Assault.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , Oct. 29. There Is
little or no excitement In official circles hero
this morning over the Santiago press cable
gram nnuounclnir the receipt by Minister
Egan of an unsatisfactory response from the
Junta to tbo representations of the United
States and saying the Baltimore's crow Is
practically boycotted at Valparaiso.
Naval oftlclals discredit the latter
statement , and believe its foundation
lies in the prudent course adopted by Com
modore Schloy respecting the granting of
liberty to its sailors during the present con
dition of excitement. No word has been re
ceived nt the Navy department from tbo
commodore respecting any now phase In the
situation. A cipher cablegram from Minister
Egun ns received this morning at the State
department , but Its contents were not made
known.
It was nearly noon before the cablegram
was translated and laid before the president.
An hour afterwards messengers were dis
patched to Secretary Blaluo and Secretary
Tracy , requesting tholr presence nt the
White house. The secretaries promptly re
sponded to the president's summons , Secre
tary Blulnc coming over from his housa ana
Secretary Tracy from the Navy department.
Up to this time it had been understood that
Minister Egan's cablegram was to bo made
public a' , an early hour , but as the consulta
tion ran along tt was apparent that some
cause for delay had arisen.
Secretary Tracy stayed an hour at the
White house and returned to the Navy de
partment , but hud not boon there long before
ho was recalled. Naturally these movements
gave rise to all kinds of moro or loss wild
speculation us to the nature of Mr. Egan's
dispatch and the Intentions of the covorn-
mrnt.
mrnt.Vnen
\Vnen Secretary Tracy again omcnrcd from
the white house ho refused to make any
statement whatever respecting the Chilian
correspondence , on the ground that the De
partment of State had the matter in charge.
Secretary Blnlno appeared to bo In gooJ
spirits when ho came out of the white house
and stopped Into his carriage to go homo. Ho
had nothing to say about Mr , Egan's message -
sago , but intimated that when the proper
time had elapsed the public would bo In-
formcu of the facts.
Soon after 0 o'clock an ofllcial statement of
the contents of Minister Egan's dispatch was
uiado public. It road as follows :
Iran's DlHpatcll.
"Tno Department of State voccived this
"
morning u"telegram from Minister Egan ,
dated Santiago , October " $ , in which ho gives
the following as the reply of the Chilian gov
ernment to the presldont's'tologram of Octo
ber 23 , asking reparation for the recent mur
der of American sailors in the streets of Val
paraiso :
The mlnlstorot forol ; : " alTiiIrs roplles that the
covormnont of the United States formulates
demands und advances throats thatwithout
being cast back \vlth uciliuonv , are not accep
table , nor could they bu accepted In tlio pres
ent c.iso or In any other of llle nature. Ho
does not doubt thu sincerity , rectitude or
uxpurtncsb of the Investigation on board
thu lliiltlmore , but will recognize only
the jurisdiction and authority of his own
country tn judge and pun sh the guilty la
Chilian territory. He says the administrative
and judicial authorities , have been Investigat
ing affairs : that judicial estimation under
Chilian law Is secret , ami the time has not yet
arrived to make known the result ; when thrft
tlmo does arrive he will communlcacc the
result , although hu docs notieco nUc any
other authority competent to jutl o criminal
cases limn that established by thu Chilian
people. Until tuo tlmo arrives to disclosu the
result of the Investigation ho cannot admit
Unit thu disorders in Vaiuaralao or tlio silence
of his department should appear r.s an ex
pression tit unfriendliness towards the gov
ernment of the United Mutes or that It lmll
put In peril the friendly lolatlons between thu
tuo countiles. "
Up to this hour , when tin above statement
was made public , no reply had boon made to
it.Vhat will bo the nature of Secretary
nialno's reply is altogether a matter of con
jecture. The most plausible theory advanced
is that the suggestions courteously and di
plomatically convoyed in Acting Secretary
Wnarton's dispatch , that this government
had no doubt investigation would bo made
and reparation afforded , will now bo renewed
in the shape of a stern und formal demand
for some immediate assurance of proper ac
tion on the part of the junta , and that if
these are not forthcoming Minister Egun
will take passage on the Baltimore to the
United States , thus severing diplomatic re
lations between the United States and Chili.
What a. Naval Olllocr Thinks.
Captain Erben of the navy yard in Brook
lyn , has made this statement ;
"It is the opinion hold at the yard that the
trouble between our government and Chili
will not go so far as to necossi.ato the send-
inc to Valparaiso of some of the cruisers.
Nothing ofllcial relative to the course of the
government has been received hero.
"In case it should become necessary to send
part of the navy to South America not more
than four ships would bo needed to carry on
our operations against Chili am ! its navy.
There are not moro than three or four war
ships In Its nnvy which could offer
resistance to our cruisers. It is hardly
probable that England , Uormany or any
of the great powers o ( Europe
would interfere between the United
States and Chill should war result be
tween these countries from the ro'ont epi
sode at Valparaiso , and If it should bo
considered necessary to send our navy to the
South Paclllu there would bo no need of
holding back a number of warships to pro
tect the coast In anticipation of trouble with
European governments.
"As far as Germany Is concerned , the ad
miral of her navy has stated that ho believed
the treatment of the American sailors as an
outrage , and that the United States govern
ment had a right to reparation.
"Encland , however great may bo Its com
mercial mid financial interests in Chill , will
never take hides against the United States In
trouble ruing from the recent outrage.
"To get the cruisers und other
vessels now hero in condition for
the voyugo would take but a
few days. The repairs on the Atlanta could
be completed In a week or ton days. Tlu
trip fiom hero would bo to St. Thoniab where
the vessels would coal up , from tnoru to Per-
iminbueo , to Rio Janeiro to Montevideo ,
around the cape and up the coast to
Vnlpaiiso , a distance , re/uglily speaking , of
r..OJO miles. This could bo covered in from
forty to llfty days and in oven loss time bv
some of the cruisers nt extra speed.
"Tno statement made that a land force
could co-ororato with the navy bv having
troops carded to Colon and across the Isth
mus of Panama , and thence by transport
steamers to Valparaiso Is impracticable for
the reason that the United States of Colum
bia would not allow foreign troops in tlmo of
war to cross at that point.
Our Available ; Nuvnl Force.
Thu shins now at the nnvy yard are the
Philadelphia , Atlanta , Vermont , Concord ,
Bonnlngton , Mtantonomah , Terror , Petrol
and the Chicago. The Boston loft for the
South Pacilio station and the Yorktown is on
the way thero. The Newark is at Boston
and ready for bailing orders. The Charles

Washington today or tomorrow , and the
tlrst-class torpeao boat Cashing is at Wash
ington. The San Francisco is on tlw Pacific
coast and the Baltimore U at Valparaiso ,
"In two days -1,000 men , as crows of such
vessels as could soon bo scat to Chili , could
start on orders. The hoftvily'armored double
turrctcd monitor Mlantonomah was nut in

with their complement of marines und sallora
would bo ample for the purpose of subju
gating Chill should It ever conic to that
point , which I very muchroubt. "
OiilnloiiH of the 10liKllsi ! Press.
Lovnox , Oct. 30. The Post , after remarkIng -
Ing that the ruival Inferiority of the United
States will make it Uifllcult for her to coerce
Chili , expresses the hope that both parties
will modify tholr attitudeboforo proceeding
to hostllltibs.'The Post then enters Into ou
elaborate argument , quotlnR from authori
ties on international law rind giving practi
cal Instances to prove the Invalidity of
Minister Egan's views on thoox-terrltormUty
of the United States legation , mid concludes :
"Tno whole question Is sojlmportant thMthn
action of the united State ? will bo awaited
with Interest everywhere , und not without
anxiety nt the prospect of'a confusing rovo-
4utlon of International customs. "
The Telegram , referring to the Chilian
ombroglto , says : President Harrison
was perfectly justified In acting as
he did. Doubtless Minister Egan's
appointment has turned out to bo
tbo worst that could have ! been made. His
action was a notorious violation of the obli
gations of neutrality. But there is no reason
In the world wliy thd Chilians should
adopt n doll in t attitude. 'If ' they refuse to
make nn investigation and to punish
the guilty persons they wcro acting under
the impulse of insensate ferldo. It will bo
necessary for the United1 States doubtless
sorely against her will to give them a sal
utary lesson. "
The Chronicle thinks the affair is hardly n
matter for war or oven a mobilizing of the
United States navy. It r.avs that Chill will
doubtless find It moro prudent to apologize ,
punish the assailants of tlio Anieiican sailors
and pay a compensation rather than to risk
her ironclads in an encounter with the
United States.
Lnxnox , Oct. 29. The Tunes , referring to
the Cbillau affair , regards the American de
liverances as all talk , Intended to influence
the coming elections , and .says thi.t after

Thomas A. Osborno , minister to Chili under

marks concerning the present strained diplo
matic relations between this government and

If it should become necessary for the United
States government to humiliate them it
would require a century to restore the amica
ble relations which existed pnor'to the Bal-
maceda revolution. About tlio close of tno
civil war Chili and Peru were in a dlfllculty
and Spain sent u licet which bombarded
Valparaiso. The cannon balls are yet Im
bedded in the custom house and the Chilian
government will not allow them to bo re

the story and the cannon balls servo as a
constant reminder that their hatred towards
the Spanish government must not bo suf

Tor an Injunction.
Niw : YORK , Ocr , 29. A-taotlon was made
in the supreme court hcru today to prevent a
reorganization of the National Lead trust In
Now Jersey. The proceedings were brought
by Thomas II. Uncles ; who owns ? < W,000
worth of stock. The counsel claimed that
the trust was formed In October , 18S7 , with
a capitalisation of 39,447.000 and was to con-
tlnuo twent.v-ono , year * . . The profits last
> ear amounted -,000,000. . It seems that
the assets only amount to fti" , 000,000.
At a meeting last Augndt of the stockhold
ers It was decided to transfer the assets to
the now corporation to , be formed In Now
Jersey with a capital stock of ffti.uoo.OOO.
The president and trustees were to form n
board of reorfanlratlont The certificate
holders in the said company were to receive
shares In the now corporation and $ . ' ( ,000,000
In debenture bonds were to be Issued.
Mr. Uncles' counsel creuod that this action
bad depreciated the value of the certificates ,
The representatives thn trust stated that
It was intended to organize a corporation
from the trust in order to conform to the
law. They held tbatJ.be plaintiff could not
move under the trust agreement , as the
courts have decided such an agreement to bo
invalid ,
Judgj Ingrahum said ha would consider
the application for an Injunction which asked
that tno defendants be prevented from trans
ferring its assets cut of the state , but inti-
maicu that under such _ an ngrroment tbo
plulntltl could not prevent the trust from
being organized. '

VicKsiifRO , Miss. , Oct. 29. The flno
steamer Oliver Bicrno laid up nt Mllllkons
Bend landing at 12 o'clock last night , She
had quite n lot of cabin passengers and some
thing over 200 decklei , whlto men , who were
en route to various levee work below Vlcks-
burg. Of the decides she took ninety-eight
nt Greenville.
At the landing were about sovonty-flvo
bales of cotton to tnko on. The mate had
some tioubio with thorousters , manyof them
quitting work , niter which the rnato hired
the lovco men , paying thcm2o cents per hour.
This enraged the negroes , who made open
threats against the mnto and boat.
At 3:40 : this morning the cotton in the deck
room was discovered on flro and the entire
boat was n mass of ( lames in n short tlmo.
Every effort was made to save the lives of
these on board , but it is feared the list of
lost will roach twelve or moro. The yawl
was lowered to pick uo these who could bo
reached in the river. It was about the only
hope of saving the many who were compelled
to Jump into the river. The yawl was In
charge of Ed , the first engineer.
The passengers lost everything and it Is
reported the boat's books were also lost. The
boat had 70S bales of cotton on board and
wus laying at the landing where she burned ,
waiting for daylight to cross a bar near
there.
The passengers and crow who wcro saved
were shown every kindness by the citizens
of Millinens Bond , who threw open their
doors to receive them.

French Sunntc Vott-H to Suppress thu
Prohibition.

PAitif , Oct. 29.-fNew York Herald Cable
Special to I'm : llitp.1 Tlio entire city of
Paris today belongs to the American pig mid
the question which has aroused the political
and commercial world is settled. This morn
ing there was under the presldonco of Presi
dent Carnet n meeting of the ministers , when
the question was decided.
MM. do Froycinet and Itlbot urged their
colleagues that the government should tnko
upon itself the defense of American
t commerce , The ministers thereupon decided
to ask the senate to suppress thu prohibition
and tax American pork 20 francs per 200
pounds.
All members of ttio senate nt present in
Paris attended the sitting. M. Loroyn pro-
sided. After voting a credit for a. small
amount they arrived at the discussion wnich
interests us. Ono sees at once when the op
position arises. M. Koch , minister of
commerce , demands urgency , that is that
ono debate , not two , will cause the project to
become a law. M. Fcroy supports the gov
ernment , M. Larelnty attacks tt. Finally
the urgency Is voted mid the discussion
commences.
M. Frosnny ( conservative ) speaks first
ngaiust the project. Trichinosis overwhelms
him , because in two mouthfuls may bo
absorbed 40,000 trichtnl , mid ho urges
that American pork is a great propigator of
trichinosis. Moreover , ho holds all over
seeing is impossible at unloading. He pro
poses to throw out the project as a law with
out oven discussing its clauses.
M. Cormoll replies to him. Ho is qualified
to do so , for us well as being n senator ,
Cormoll is n doctor of medicine , a member of
the Academy of Mcdicino and u doc
tor In the hospitals of Paris.
Trichinosis can bo only n danger
amongst the Germans and Sclavs , who eat
meat raw ; but there Is no danger after the
pork has been cooltcd two or three hours , ns
is the case in Franco , "and , " ho adds , "raw
hams oven these from French pigs are
dangerous. baiting , oven when not
well performed , suffices to kill
trichinosis. There is not , therefore ,
from n hygienic point of view nny
objection to allowing the entry of American
meats. " One knows but ono Individual case
of trichinosis in Franco and that came from
a French pig.
The minister of commerce finally rose to
make his speech. IIo nsks that American
moats bo allowed to outer. If American
meats are dangerous , Americans would be.
[ Laughter. | All Amorirun moats nro im-
Iportodjto/jBelgium nnd tl orq Is no slc npss ;
In" England , tie 'lUnoss ; ' theroMs'l'lnoss ' in'
Germany , but no American pigs , but Ger
man pigs. If ono maintains that prohibition.
It is hurtful to the Interests of thu French
workmen , who cat this meat , which is health ,
ful. "It is apainst Gorman pork , which is
sick , that wo nsk measures taken. fAp-
nlauso. ] There are no reasons why wo
urgently nsk for votes. The United States has
addressed us with claims which wo find to bo
just. They are unobjectionable. Wo cannot
refuse to the United States what has already
been afforded them. Wo are on too good
commercial relations with them. Wo will
discuss tomorrow the llguro of duty , but
you cannot hesitate to vote the principle.
Wo have confidence In your foresight , and
your patriotism. [ Much upplause.J
The president rings his bell and announces
that a vote is about to bo taken. Officers of
the senate with their silver chains go 'round
with urns , into which the senators put blue
papers showing they refuse , white papers
saying they accept tlio suppression of prohi
bition. The secretaries count the papers in
open baskets.
The presldontrlngs again.
Ho proclaims the result. By 179 votes
against 09 the senate decides on the
suppression of prohibition. Tomorrow wo
shall know what American moat will pay as
duty for entry.
Accordl.ig to the general opinion If the
government sliowaitself cnurgotio it will
carry off n second victory and the duty will
only bo 20 francs. In uny case It is certain
the day's ' work has been good for American
commerce and for Franco-American rela
tions. JCQUHS Sr. Giiu : : .

culvoil n severe blow on the luico from n atlclc.
The Injury U not of n serious iinturo , but on
account of the swelling Dillon must keep
quiet. Consequently the injured piirlinmon-
tnilun has censed his work of canvassing on
bohnlf of the nominuo of the iMcUurtli.-lto
party.
The lighting which took plnco between the
McUurthyltes nncl the Parnellltos last night
in the streets wits moro serious than nt first
appeared. There was a series of scrimmages-
between tlio contending p.irtios , the moat
suvoro being Clio ono In which Dillon \vn
disabled. Crowds of McCarthyltos woro-
\ilion that occasion accompanying" Dillon niul
O'lliion , who were on their way back to.at-
tcnd n McCarthy meeting. The MeCarthy-
itus caino into collision' with n proces
sion of 1'imicllitea. Nolthor crowd would
glvo way to the other and so n general melee
followed , several thousand combatants tak
ing part. Blackthorns , bricks mid stones
wore used by both parties. 1'nmlly the Mo-
C'.irtliyltcs succeeded in wrenching the
lurches from the hands of llio I'arnollltos.
The victorious McCarttivltes then con
tinued their innrcli. Upon arriving nt the
market place , where the meeting was held ,
O'Bricn ' addressed about Ji.OOO MeUarlhyltos.
In the ineanwhllo the routed Pat-noil lies ,
\vith roinforccnientii , made another onslaught
upon the McCarthyites. Tlioy charged into
the square , slashing right "anil loft with
their blackthorns an.l bplitting many heads.
The McCarthyites , though tney fought des
perately , were slowly driven back. Then for
a time the Pari.cllitus held the market place.
The MeCartyitos soon found strong rein
forcements , and tuus strengthened they
again mustered In a compact bodv and made
a dash at the Parncllites. After a most itos-
por.ita battle the I'arnellitoforco was routed.
Many on both sides were Injured in addition
to tlioJo altoudy reported as having beciv
taken to the hospital to lutvo their wounds
attended to.
Similar scenes , though on a somewhat
moro modest scale , occurred nt Haiulou ,
twenty miles from hero. During the light a.
number of contestants on both sides were
severely cut and bruised.
At a Parnclllto mooting held this evening
Mr. O'Connor produced an Instrument
which ho described as mi assagai and snid
ho had wrested it from the hand of n Mc-
Cartlivlto.
Mr. O'Connor Indignantly declared that ho
would never speak to Mr. O'Bncn again , for
when ho Interfered to preserve pence at the
afternoon meeting Mr. O'llricn ' had the au
dacity to say : "Como with mo , John , I will
protect you. "
Late tonight a force of Parnollltcs marched
out mid made an attack on an miti-Piirncll
meeting. A terrible light ensued. Mr.
O'Connor received a borlous wound behind
the oar from a police club , ho says. Showor.i
of stones were thrown and many persons
were Injured , including William Ucdmond.

rmld that it was the universal fooling lii
America that the strife In. Ireln-id must
cease , and hu appealed to the common BCUSO
and patriotism of the country to insist on
poaco.
The Freeman's Journal says it is rumored
'
that If Mr. Uudmond is defo'ated In Cork all
the Patncllilo members of the house of com
mons will resign their scat ? ,
C.IIIK , OcU 29.Lute this afternoon it
seemed as if u collision between the persons
present at two opposing mucllngH was Immi
nent , as many members of both factions were
trmed with stout blaiikthorns and appearcil
ready at the least pretext to US.Q tholr
weapons on ono another's heads. The threat
ened molco wus averted , however , by the
action of herculean Jonn O'Connor , who
used freely his massive form through the
dense ami excited ciowd toward the spot
where the car containing Mr. O'Brlon was
standing.
Arriving at the car Mr. O'Connor held a
hurried and whispered conversation with
Mr. O'llrion ' , and Dually the two men linked
arms mid in this manner passed through llio
crowd ami walked away in the uirection of
the hotel.
This had n very good effect upon tba
crowd , for , scolni ; the opposing momberj so
friendly with each other , the partisans of
Mr. O'Brion and Mr , O'Connor ' allowed their
ardor to cool and order was sooi. restored.
In splto of his doctor's orders , Mr. Dillon
drove out this afternoon and addressed sev
eral meetings , the McCarthyltes being moro
afralu of the quiet canvassing of the union
ists than of the work of the P.irnellites. They
argued that Mr. Kcdmond has little chance
of winning rf scat which Mr , Paniell himself
fourod to vacate , and they openly acc.uso Red
mend of merely deslung a theatrical exit
from Irish politics , knowing that his own
elector * ere about to reject him for a Mo-
Carthvlto.
Mr. Uodmend In a speech today sal'l ho re
gretted the attaclc made Inst night on Mr.
Uillon. Mr. Redmond denied the truth of
Mr. O'Brlori's statement that ho ( Redmond )
had broken the Boulogne pledges. It wan
not ho but it was Mr Parnull who proposed
that Mr. O'Hrlon ' bo made temporary leader
of the Irish party.
Eight dittectlvps accompanied Messrs. Dil
lon and O'Brion throughout the day.
Mr. Dillon declared this evening that his
opponditu placed n party of roughs behind u
