CntCAoo , Jnn , 23. Uob Harper's long arm
pushed out Wlloy Evans ot California in the
fifth round at West Twelfth street Turner
hall , tfp to that time it was a toss of the
pann $ which man would win. Both were
1 weak after the second round , but Evans was
' the'Rrogglosl nnd was counted out by a
siraltfhtarm driver in tho.Jaw. Harper had
B trlllo the best of It In wolght'ana consid
erable in reach.
Neither seemed in perfect condition.
Harper , In the first , poked Evans In the nock
nnd Jaw , Evans countering nnd securing tha
first knock down. The second was a
Hcorcher , Evans scoring three knock down * .
Harper would have gone out had lie not
fallen against thn scenery1. 1' . looked like a
walk away for the llttlo Califoriohn. but he
lolntcd in the third for an opanlng , during
which time Harper caught uls wind. Then
the latter rushed his man , goltlng
in some lorrlllo punches. Ho would
have stopped Evans then , but the \vlly
chap clinched and would not break away
until time was called.
Tbo fourth found both weak. A lin.-d
punch would have soul either to grass.
Harper got a knocu-down and hud Evans ap
parently done for , but Wiloy recovered nnd
sent the tall followto the lloor with n savage
upper cut. In the fifth Evans cumo up
groggy and Harper , Joe , was shaky , After
Iclnllng Harper led apd landed on Evans'
head and neck. Evans flinched. , but Bob
broke away and sent Evans down nnd out
with u right-hand punch. Just as the time
was up , Evans staggered to his feet , but It1
was too late , and the contest , which was for
FJ50 a side , wont to the Chicago man. The
fighter used six-ounce mils nnd the contest
was ono of tbo oddest ever soon on the west

Dynamite Will Urplodr Tcrrlblo Accident
III u , 311 n I liff C'linil1-
WH.KP..SIIAHRB , Pa. , , Jun. 28. A terrific explosion -
plosion of dynamite occurred at Honey
Brook , a small mining town no.tr Hazelton ,
ut noon today , fifteen Hungarian miners
were employed in it coal stripping operated
by Dick & Mantz at.that placo. They were
sitting around the steve in the workman's
hhnnty eating tholr , lunch , when several
sticks of dynamite , which hud been placed
neur the steve , exploded , blowing the
shanty to fragments and scattering
the Inmates in all directions.
The noise of tbo explosion was
beard' live miles away. In a short time hun
dreds of people bad catherod at tbo spot and
willing hands were soon among the wounded.
Two mon , Adam Bornlck aud John Sla-
vltskl , wcro instantly killed , tholr bodies
being shockingly mutilated. Of the athor
thirteen not ono escaped injury. Mon wore
lying around In every direction , some with
arms and logs brolton and blood pouring
from many gaping wounds. Several doctors
were soon on tno spot attending to injuries of
tha sufferers. It is now believed that a num
ber of the victims will die.
At 8 o'clock this evening a report comes
from tbo hospital that there are seven men
there. They art ? still alive , but their condi
tion is considered critical.
A special to the Wllkosbarre Record at 10
o'clock says :
There were twenty Slavs injured , of whom
eight in the hospital will die. Two are
known to bo dead , and others are being
treated by the doctors at their huts naar
where the accident occurred. At nightfall
there were two men yet missing and the doc
tors and bosses are scouring the woods for
thero.
Tbo dynamite that exploded U known as
dualin , ono of tbo highest tirades made. Dr ,
Keller tonight said that besides the fractures
of the skull ana bones of tbo face , the bodv
of each patient contains scores of wounds
made as If by bullets , tholr logs , , arms and
chests being pierced with dualin from two to
four inchoi deep. The probingof tholr
wounds did not reveal in a alugio Instance
any foreign body at the bottom of tha
wouud.

LONDON , Jan. 28. Cardinal Lodoohowskl ,
who has been appointed prefect of the
propaganda , was for a time frlondly toward
the German government. Ho was an inti
mate friend of the late Empnm Augusta of
Germany. Subsequent events occurred
whlrb led him to change bis attitude toward
the government and be became one of its
most bitter adversaries. Ho incurred tbo
hostility of Prince BUmarcit , and tbo result
was that ho was sentenced ta several years'
Imprisonment. Ho was after a time allowed
to escape and has since resided in Homo.
The German government , it is said , is now
trying to court him , in order to got him to
accept the policy of the emperor and to have
him as on ally near the pope. But thus far
his sentiment against Germany Is unappeasa
ble and tbo negotiations with him have no
present chance Of success. Had ho boon ap
pointed prefect of the propaganda dur
ing Bismarck's time it would have boon an
act of defiance , toward Germany.

Crlllrliuiifliiml Comment HveryoiioI'lpHneil
Where. ( ur Nnvy Was.
WwmxoTox , D. C. , Jan. 28. Roprosonta-
tlvo Brocklnridgo of Kentucky , who on
Tuesday created considerable discussion In
the house by the Introduction of a resolution
calling upon the president to transmit to the
house without delay all additional dispatches
received In regard to the Chilian contro
versy , slitco or before tlio transmission of his
message to congress , was this evening asked
his opinion of the message and dispatches to
day subtnlttod. 'From tlio correspondence
suomlttod today , " said ho , "my Judgment Is
that the relations between the United States
and Chill ought to become at once frlondly
and that It is a moro matter of detail as to
the mono and time of settlement and the
amount of Indemnity. Ills evident that the
Chilian government always meant pence nnd
not war. AH to tbo particular mode of set
tlement , whether by arbitration or mediation
or diplomatic- negotiations , 1 nm uo prepared
to say , nnd do not think it specially Import
ant which mode is pursued : but I do thlnK
It wise that under nil circumstances our gov
ernment should at once recall Mr. Egan and
send some minister thcro with whom the
Chilian government may negotiate wUhout
any sense of olthor humiliation or Irritation.
The Information printed In the newspapers
of Monday morning , the i-Titb , and on Tues
day morning , the 20th , and the dates of the
correspondence submitted by the special
me.ssuao today , seem to require from the ad
ministration a fuller explanation of what
dispatuhoa have been received nnd of thooxaot
date whoa they were received. For it scorns
to mo evident that it was known on Sunday
night that n specific and satisfactory answer
would bo made , and Mr. Humsoa owes it to
the countrv and to congress mid hlmjolf to
lot it bo known whotnorho had this Information
mation the country had or was ignorant
of It. "
l'lriHcd With ( ho Outcome.
There was a decided fooling of relief mani
fested at the capital toaay. It was really not
necessary that senators nnd representatives
should say , us nil who wcro seen did , that
the news that the controversy over the Chi
lian trouble had terminated peacefully aiid
with credit to the United States was n
source of grntlllcation to thorn. The fact'
was evident to the eye in the manner of the
men and the ease with which the business in
each branch of congress dropped naturally
into its usual routine.
The conversation among momoors of the
house of representatives when it turned to
the subject which tor the past few WCCKS
had been uppoimost in their thoughts re
lated not , as formerly , to the project of
strife , but to the way In which the people
would view the message of the president on
Monday , coming so shortly before the an
nouncement of the concession bv Chili of nil
that the United States could nslc. The dem
ocrats were nearly of one mind us to this
quoslion , but the utorlos they told , having
moro or less relevancy to the situation were
moro interesting than the utterances de
signed for tbo publie.
Commended tlio President.
The republicans , who expressed .opinions
to be quoted kroner-ally , thought that tbo no
tion of the president had brought about the
satisfactory response roculvo\l < and com
mended his course. What was said wltn'tho
knowledge that it tnlgnt bo published was
generally in the same strain amljoxprosslvc
of the graliflcntiotrfollat the outcomb. sTnb
-Associated 'Press ' cablegram from1 Santiago
and the subsequent cbfatirmation of it.by-lho
Associated Press dispatch from Washington
published yesterday morning had prepared
public men in a great measure for the an
nouncement contained in the prosldont's
message todav , but nevertheless it was nn-
pareut to tl'o spectators In the galleries that
tbo president's expressions of satisfaction
with the present condition of the matter , and
his statement that there is now no need of a
grant of special powers from congress" , , wnro
welcome intelligence to tho.senate and the
bouso.
The message was first- receive : ! in the sen
ate. After the presidential message1 and the
cablegram from Mr. Egan bad been road
.Senator Sherman expressed the sentiment , of
the senate when bo said that all would Join
heartily in congratulations upon the honora
ble settlement of tbo controversy.
Hcimtoriitl Comment.
Senators who were soon after the reading
of the papers had no special comment to
make other than that they regarded
the controversy as practically set
tled , and that they tnought the an
swer of Chill had removed the Irritation between
twoon the two governments. They said that
tbo answer was very straightforward and
candid , and that there was nothing moro
than the United States could demand. It was
regarded as a complete and unequivocal re
sponse. Tbo belief in the senate heretofore
has not been that .the probabilities of war
were very groat.
Several democratic son a tore criticised the
action of the president in sending his mes
sage to con cross before Chill's reply had
been received.
Tbo statement in tbo prosldont's message
that no special powers from congress are
needed is , of course , interpreted to ineun that
nothing remains to be dona for the present
by congress , and Is also taken to Indicate a
probability of arbitration , and that Chill's
offer to settle the matter in our own supreme
court will not bo availed of. In this event
no action is needed by congress with refer
ence to determining the details or the method
of settlement of the matter of reparation or
indemnity , the work of bringing tbo contro
versy through to a llnal adjustment bolntr
ono with which the diplomatic service is
fully competent under the law and tbo con
stitution to deal.
Senator Sherman , chairman of the foreign
relations committee , said todav that uo
further action on the subject would bo taken
by the committee for tbo present at least , if
at , all. Ho considered tbo trouble as virtually
settled.
Disposition oT Our Nitvul I'orno ,
Public mon have boon repeat oil ly intor-
vlowed on the controversy during the last
week" , and there have been so many rapid
changes in tbo situation , making those Inter
views frequently out of date and Inappro
priate a few hours later , that there was a
natural disinclination today to discuss the
affair at length or to do more tb'on'express
gratification at the result.
It was openly admitted , at tbo Navy de
partment today that there is no longer'any
reason for concealment { .bat this government
was fully prepared to enforce lu .demands .
against Chill in oaib they had not oeon secured -
cured by the moro pacific motbottjof negotia
tion through diplomatic channels. The
entire available naval force has been
concentrated so as to be able to
make on almost concerted attack pn Chilian
ports. The Pacific squadron , consisting of
the Sau Francisco , Charleston , Baltimore ,
Boston aud Yorktown , would have boon
tpredily reinforced by the South Atlantic
squadron , now at Montevideo , consisting of
the Chicago , Atlanta , Bonulngton and Est > ox
and the Philadelphia and Concord , of tbo
North Atlantic squadron. Too two last
named vessels are now on their way to
Montevideo. The Co icord arrived at Bahia
today and the Philadelphia Is probably oo
youd that port on her way to Montevideo.
Should she touch at Bahia It la probable that
she and tbo Concord will bo ordered back to
the West Indies. The Mlantonomah , JJpw-
artc and Vesuvius were also uola lu'rosorvo
for possible war sorvico.

Coblo to the Now York Herald Special to
TUB BBK-l Intonso. anxloty is felt In this
olty as to ibo reply Of the United Stales to
the note sent by Minister of Foreign Affairs
Poiolrn , relative , to the ulllmaluin. For the
east twenty-four hours nothing else has been
dtsoussod In the streets , In the cafes , in fact
in all Public places. The papers which fav
ored BaUnacoda and the supporters of the
late dictator generally nro crowing ever the
manner In which this mattoc has boon
handled by the present government , nnd are
doing nil they can to'lnllumo the people.
In Valparaiso the matter Is being dtscussod
with more calmness. The merchants nnd
bankers there generally behove that a peace
ful settlement of the pending difficulties bo-
twcon the United States aud Chill will
surely bo reached.
IiitviiHO Incitement Hverywhorr.
Telegrams are arriving hourly from Iqui-
qun and all the provinces north and south to
the pupors In Santiago and Valparaiso , ask
ing if the question has boon sottled.
Intense excitement prevails throughout the
entire country. Iri Iqulquo , especially , the
people npnoar to bo wrought jip to n high
pitch. The Peruvian residents of Iqulquo
are jubilant over the existing statp or affairs.
The press of Santiago nnd Valparaiso print
the wildest stories relative to the ultimatum.
La Union is especially bitter , nnd calls upon
the pecplo , both male niid female , to stand
her togotln upholding the honor of the
country. ,
In regard to the story current that the
United States would require n salute to the
stars and stripes , It says : "Our noble
sailors would prefer sinking to the bottom of
the sea rather than "to salute the Yankee
flag. "
The exact terms of tihill's reply nro not

ST. PBTBUSJIUHO , Jon. ' 27 : Advices re-
.celved hero from the gbvprnment of
Voronezh show that matters in that part of
the famine-stricken dlstriqt 'are " going
from bad to , worse. 'The peasants
have become exasperated by their suffering
and Jroin hunger , nnd sickness and , in a blind
unreasoning way they have turned their re
sentment against the doctors for the
latter's failure to effect cuies. This
same course was followed during the
cholera epidemic which rnvlsli'cd that pirt of
the empire , aud the doctors having before
them the memory of the fate oft tbo medical
mon in the cholera years have lied from the
ignorant peasantry. . /
In many villages In Voronezh the military
have been called upon to suppress the dis
orders.
Tbo difllcultv of learning' tbo true condi
tion of affairs in the famine dis
tricts is illustrated by a story told
of nn occurrence which took place
at a recent meeting of the
famine relief committee In St. Petersburg.
The cznrowitch , who is president of the
committee , \vns conversing with a gentleman
who had Just returned from a tour of Inspec
tlon In iho famine districts. Thu gentleman
gave Instances of the heartrending sceaeu ho
bad witnessed.
The C7arowitrh listened to the pitiful de
tails with an incredulous air , all the time
twirling his mustache. Presently bo said :
"I believe you arrfexntfgorntlng. "
The gentleman thereupon deemed it
prudent to retire. This Incident bus
Dad a deterrent effect on those best
acquainted with the actual condi
tions prevailing In the afflicted districts ,
anu they display a very natural hesitancy in
imparting tholr knowledge to others. It mny
bo said , however , that tbo stories of distress
