LONDON' , Oct. 31. [ Now York Herald Cable
Special to TUB BIK. : ] Instead of being
nnuoycd nt Sullivan's many contradictions ,
Sluvln is delighted to think that the big
American will at last give him a ehnnco ot a
fight. Slavln told the Herald tonight that ho
would lenvo for America during the last wnok
of November , and will then be propnrd to
make a match with the big fellow for as
largo a stake as bo likes to put up. The
Australian stipulate * that the battle must bo
with small gloves , and to a finish , before niiy
legitimate club In tha states. Ho bars Now
Orleans , because Mitchell cannot go the
Crescent City without getting Into trouble
with the authorities , and where Mitchell
cannot go Slavic will not.
The Australian was surprised nt Sullivan's
denial of tlio meeting In St. Louis. Slavln
wont there for the purpo'O of finding out
wU thcr Sullivan wan ted to fight or not , nnd
Sullivan then told Slavln that ho had retired
from the business , "but If I go back again , "
said John L. , "you shall have the first
chance with mo. " This conversation took
place In the big fellow's room and was re
ported In every paper In America. Slavln
cannot understand why Snlllvnn should
deny It now. Slavln-sald : "It Is a pity Su'- '
llvan did not accept the olTor mndo by tbo
Melbourne Athlotlo club to find n purse
of i'5,000 and furnish a xldo bet of 5,000.
No such arrangement ut this will
bo mode by any other English or
American club. Besides prize lighters do
not usually cary backers around with them.
Anyway I will go to Now York and see
whether Sullivan will really fight. So If ho
will put up n forfeit with the Herald ho can
rest assured I will attend toil. I shall ex
pect the cluD giving the purse to furnish mo
my expenses. I would sea that Sullivan got
his expenses if ho fought in England or
.Australia. . "
Engllsn sporting men nro betting 3 to 1
that Sullivan will never go into the ring
with Slavin.

Hurrying around to tbo cast side they groped
their way in through the dark passage leadIng -
Ing Into the hasomcnt and after winding
about for some tlnui they came upon an old
tramp lying in the corner of n basement
room with a blazine flro of boards , shavings
and paper before him. Tlio room was thick
with smoke but the tramp scorned lo bo enjoying -
joying his surroundings. When uskod
what ho was doing there ho replied
that ho was cold and wont In there
nnd slnrtod a lire to warm himself. Ho con
tinued to heap sticks upon the flames and ap
peared to bo very much at homo. In the room
where the flro was burning there were boards
enough to have made a dangerous lire. The
basement of the building was completely
lllled with smoke nnd several buckets of
water were required to extinguish the flames.
The police station was notillod nnd the
tramp was taken into custody. Ho gave the

XiiwYoitK. Oct. .11. The Ilorald's Wash
ington correspondent says ! Secretary Blalno
rather enjoys the excitement of having so
lively a controvert } " on bis hands at the out
set of liU roturu to work. Ho feels fully
capable of taking care of It nnd Is receiving
little advice oxccpt the warnings of the pres
ident to go slow and trc.it the Chllluns with
forbearance. The fact that the Chilian situ
ation was not seriously discussed nt the cabi
net meeting Is the best proof that thcro was
nothing sensational in regard to It today.
This fact disproves also the story which
was set afloat.that Minister Egan is to bo re
called. Such n step would not bo taken
without the consultation of the cabinet , and
I bnvo the authority of n cabinet oflicor that
it has not been taken. The moment that
Minister Egan abandoned the legation the
place would cease to bo protected by the
American ling , nud the friends of Butmuccda
who have found a refuge there would bo ox-
nosed to the danger of tnstnut massacre.
The provisional government would not bo
bound by diplomatic usugo to glvo safe con
duct to these men nnd they wouiu not bo
likely to do It of their own free will under
such circumstances.
There are nearly u score of these adherents
of Bulmaccdu protected ut the legation nud
to abandon them in cold blood , without the
strongest , reasons , would bo almost as bard
h ) justify as Napoleon's shooting down uf his
Turulslf prisoners because ho could not carry
them away with him.
Minister Egan , i have the best authority
for saying , will remain at bis post while
thcro Is n possibility that Cull ! intends to
make amends for the brutal .slaughter In tbo
streets of Valparaiso , nnd while there Is a
necessity of protecting these who have
sought the shelter of tliu stars and stripes.

NEW YOIIK , Oct. Ul. Tbo Post says a pon-

domund of Chili for the recall of Kgnn suv.s
ho received today an authoritative dispatch
from Washington announcing that Blalno
had promised Senor Monti that tlio United
States legation wculd bo put In c&argo of its
secretary next Monday.
The Commercial Advertiser special from
Washington says * Socretaiy Blaine has in
formed Motitt that his government wilt in

Chilians.
WisiiiNOTO.v , D. C. , Oct. 31 , There Is
nothing itidicativo of n change in the Chilian
situation this afternoon so lur as learned.
There has been no further exchange of dis
patches between this government nud its rep-
reentatlvos in Chili.
The report telegraphed from Now York
this afternoon that Secretary Blaine had
promised SonorMontt that the United States
legation would bo put in charge of its secre
tary , fails to Iind cjiitirmation hero. On * ho
other hand , the fuel is mentioned by the
State department olllcinls that thcro is no
secretary attached to the United Stares lega
tion at Santiago.
fllnro British Patience.
As a portion o f the English press contlnuo
to ciiticizo the uttituto assumed by the
United States in respect to Chili and contrast
it with the forbearance exhibited by Great
Britain in lilto cases , another precedent in
line with the Brazilian incident quoted In
these dispatches u tow days ago may bo cited
as Illustrative of the British methods of ad-
judieiating differences with smaller nations.
In 18b7 the governor of the Britisti colony
of Trinidad sent n written notice to the
government of the neighboring stnto of Vedo-
/uela requiring the payment of the claim of
two British vessels the Henrietta and
Josephine which had boon seized by the
Venezuelan government for alleged violation
of law. The Venezuelan government was
notillod that unless payment was mada
within seven dnys the commander of the
British forces in the West Indies would take
the necessary measures to collect the money.
The Venezuelan minister of foreign aflairs
called together the diplomatic corps ana ap
pealed to them to exert their good oOlces to
prevent Great Britain from enforcing this
threat In so summary a manner before the
claims coulo bo properly examined nnd ad
judicated.
The diplomatic corps declined to Interfere ,
basing their refusal on the ground that the
matter was ono that must bo arranged bn-
twoen the two countries interested. Mcnn-
wuilo the British squadron made prepara
tions to enforce the demands made upon the
Venezuelan government and the latter pro
testing against the injustice of the claim and
appealing publicly to the nations of tno old
and now worlds against the summary
method adopted by Great Britala , paid over
the $40,000 , yielding , as it said , to superior
strength and not to reason or justice.

Admiral Irvln Talks About the Fleet
on the Paclilc.
SvxPuvxcisco , Gal. , Oct. ill. The naval
ofllcors at Mara Island are of the opinion that
the United States has ships enough in fight-
trim nt the present moment to handle Chill
with ease. Admiral Irvlu , commandant at
Mara Island , in discussing Uioquostion , said :
"wo can handle Chill easily , without any
additional work or preparation.Vo bavo
ships enough In lighting trim now to squelch
Chili. Valparaiso Is the key to the entire
situation , and I do not apprehend any dllll-
culty In capturing the key. Of course-wo
shall want Iqulquo as well , for that is Chill's
purse. I say take It , not blockade It. The
nltrnto exporters do not care whom they pay
duty to and wo If wo did not want It wo
could turn it over to Peru , from whom Chill
took it. I think this talk about privateers
doing damage to American commerce in the
event of war Is nonsense. If it really has
any foundation it would moan that the
privateers would bo foreign vessels , under
the Chilian Hag , as certain foreign elements
have an interest In stirring up strlfo. As
far us Chill nlono Is concerned there Is noth
ing to worry about. She could bo taken care
of by the vessels entering the port of San
Francisco that have boon found uo to the
qualifications ol the naval reserve standard.
iMiiHHln a Mighty Flaot.
' The board of inspection , of which I was
formerly at the head , has beau most thorough
in its examination , and has found almost
sufltclont vessels to oppose Cnill. without the
rest qt'tho navy. If wo only bad a few more
guns to put on them. But wo have not got u
gun out hero of the sort required. The
merchant marine vessels referred to would
bo of vast assistance , however , us transports
and provision freighters and would lessen
the number of ilghUnir ships required to a
vary small number. The Mlantonomah could
got around there easily , cither by steaming
from ono coal port to another or going in tow
of ouo of the big twin screw ships. There
are several ships that could tow her around
easily and make good time , and once there ,
with the fast merchant nmrlnu to keep her
supplied with coal , ammunition and provis
ions , she could pretty near settle the Chilian
lighting forces herself. Two or three smart
cruisers , which ore already on band , would
glvo all the hid needed.
"Such vouch ns tbo Mlantonomah ,
Monadiiock and Monterey are tbo
real llehtlng ships df the fu

which by the now turrets can bo fought In
the sea , they nro the most formidable light

SA STIfu > Dn Citii.i , Oct. yi. Though thcr <
nro no new developments today In the stall
of the diplomatic strain existing between thi
United States nnd Chill the political atmos
phcro shows no signs of clearing. The mom
hers of tlio American colony an
ex peeling nt any moment to hear Urn
tbo United States eovcrninont has sen
an ultimatum to the junta. The only sllgh
change In the situation lies in the fact tha
the junta , thiough its organs nnd by Its rep
rcscnttitU'cs , nro now claiming that the polici
of Valparaiso wcro in no way at fault In nr
resting the sailors of the Baltimore or Ii
their subsequent treatment of them. This
with other matters , notably the oxpectatlor
that Minister Egan will soon bo directed b. ,
the Stnto department at Washington to present
sent an ultimatum to'tho junta Is , natural ! }
causing great oxcitmnont in oftlcial and othci
circles.
The possibility of serious trouble with the
United States has led the Chilians into what
may turn out to bo a dangerously delusive
'
"bollof. They seem-to bo of' the opinion that
should Chili become involved in hostilities
with the United States an alliance with
Great Britain could bo formed. linked , the
Chilians are already gravely discussing the
possibilities and probabilities of such an alli
ance between Chili and GreatBrltatn against
the United States.
The United Stages legation is again being
closely watched by the police in the manner
adopted some weclrt ago when the legation's
right of asylum was questioned. No reason ,
so far ns can oo learned , bus boon assigned
lor this renewed surveillance. It is not un
likely that the government has taken this
means of kcopmir fully advised of all
who enter or leave the legation. Possibly
also It Is Intended by keeping the legation
under constant observation to make the right
of asylum us dlfllcult mill trying as possible.
In any event thofact _ cannot bo lost sight of
that this ospionriga'is ' annoying to the mem
bers of the United States legislation as well
as to the American colony at largo.
That the police on duty near the American
legation are under , Instructions to make ar
rests of persons leaving that place in certain
contingencies isH"inanifest from the luct
that two ludios who hud been calling at
Minister Egan's vycro placed under arrest
last night as they c mo out into the street.
The ladies were questioned by the olllcer Jn
charge , wiio appears to have satisfied him
self that this wnn not a case where bis in
structions justified him in holding them
prisoners , so they were restored to liberty
and allowed to proceed on their way without
further molestation. U is needless to add
that they nnd their friends are much exas
perated at tbo action of the polico.
Last night also a carriage was driving past
the legation wtion the police made un at
tempt to stop it , on wlnit pretext is not
known. The driver , bovvovor , whipped up
his horses and drove away before the police
could capture him or see who was In the
carriage.
These incidents , though almost nothing
under ordinary circumstances , are nmirniliod
oy the condition of public fooling hero and
by tlio status of the negotiations between the
United States and Chili. So it is not to bo
wondeicd at that Americans feel unoasv
and are apprehensive that something serious
may happen. Tno members of the junta
continuo to express the strongest feeling
agaiusttho United States.
A prominent member of the junta , who
nolds a position in the cabinet , in an inter
view in regard to the dispute between the
two countries spoke iu n nest unfriendly
manner concerning America and Americans.
He was particularly severe on United States
Minister Egnn , whom ho bluntly accused
of trving to provoke a war bo-
twcon the United States and Chill ,
in order to secure glory for himself
On the other hand , however , it is assorted
that Minister Esati has done nothing what
ever In tbo matter on his own responsibility ,
alibis actions being guided by orders which
have boon sent to him from the Stnto depart
ment nt Washington and that Minister Egan
bos made efforts pilvutely to maintain
friendly relations between the two govern
ments.

SAN PIIAXCISCO , Cul. , Oct. 31. A letter
from Valparaiso , Chili , written under date of
September , two weeks subsequent to the
downfall of Balmacoda's government , re
counts that at tbo 11 mo a fading of
great bitterness was exhibited toward
United States Minister Egan nnd the
American naval forces. Newspapers which
began publication after tbo success of the
congrossionallsts , continued to reiterate that
Minister Egnn hud favored Balmaceda , but
It was also conceded that ho bad protected a
number of congressional adherents when
Bulmuccdu wni In power.
When the conflict closed the fact that bo
had alforded protection to adherents of
Balmaceda was urgvil against him us show
ing his sympathy > oiWUh the downfall
administration. tiAu Intimation that n
son of tbo UnUo/l States minister was
interested In railway enterprise was also
cited as reason for the opposition
to the minister , uud.\ho claim was also made
that the latter lutqndod embarking in a com
mercial cntorprUg Jji Chill when his term of
o 111 co expired if Bajniacudu succeeded , and it
was ncknowlodgctlo that no evidence was
given In proof of ithose allegations , but tbuy
were printed and added to tlio fooling of ani-
mo-iity in the pomilar mlud against the
American embassy. r
The papers jjj also made attacks
against the American force , owing to
the chiuso oti , iltho Itata , and the
statement was.o i ipoatodly mucio in

that Admiral Br\jn ) , in his flagship San

point of stating that ho had on board of his
llagshlp an oftlcor or representative of the
Balmuccdan army. It was called to the at
tention of Admiral Brown In a uoto from
Minister Egan and the former replied in a
letter to the minister , entering a spcclllo de
nial ol the charge.
Even after tbo publication of Admiral
Brown's loiter the tsUtomonts originally
made woio reiterated , and the fact that
Vicuna and other ofllcials of that government
ivoro given protection ou board American

cited that the English and French ships

In his speeches Boios devoted tbo majority of
his time to the prohibition subject , llo pre

Telegram to THE BEI : . | The closing days ot
the congressional campaign indicate trial the
vote will bo a light ono , careful estimates
placing tlio total nt fi'JOJ. ( ) It is conceded
that the independents are worki.ig licu !
badgers nnd : i few days ago their state chair
man mailed every Independent voter In ttio
stnto n circular loltor , urging thorn to bo ut
the polls next Tuesday. The republicans urn
fully nllort to tlio situation and will gut their
voters out.
Although there are many republicans who
are sanguine of John .lolloy'n election to congress
gross from this stnto , there uro still many
well posted and conservative republic-mis who
practically admit that It would not bo at all
surprising if Smith , the Independent ciiuul-
date , is elected. The independents are on u
"dtlll hunt" as far as the towns uro concerned
corned , and for this reason but llttlo bus
been learned of their efforts. If nearly a
lull republican vote can bo polled Jolley
hopes to bo ulectod by n romfortaulo plural
ity , but if. 0:1 : the other hand , there should > o
u very lurun stuy-nt-homo vote , the chances
nro that Smith will bo the next congressman
from South Dakota.
Still tno democrats are not wholly without
hope of electing their candidate , Wood , oven
though they are iu the minority. They hope
to hold their own votes whllu tha independ
ents alvido tlio form or republican ntrongth.
Like ull tiiiingular lights , however , the ro
null is uncertain.
