Brooklyn was finally selected. HOW WASHINGTON LOST THE XEXT MEETING. Today's Philadelphia Times says: Superin- tendent Powell of Washington made an exceed- | ingly ingenious plea for the capital city and tate Relinquished by the Legatees. A big surprise was developed yesterday. noon inthe trial in New York of the contest over the will of the late Daniel B. Fayerweather, the leather merchant, who left several millions to institutions of learning. — Henry D. Vaughan said that he, Thomas G. Ritch and Justin L. Bulkeley had joined in an instrument relinquishing any claim to the residuary estate. This accomplishes the main purpose of the contest. Prior to this, by con- sent of counsel, the will was admitted to pro- bate. In view of these concessions and by the and Bulkeley will receive the residue in trust to divide among the colleges and hospitals mentioned in the will. ‘The cage will, however, proceed. The important instrument by which the ro- siduary legatecs divested themselves as such of the residuary estate after the specific bequests of over $2,000,000 to colleges and other institu- tions virtually acts as a new will in itself.’ This residuary estate is ostimated to amount to #4.000,000. Many of the colleges named in the will secrrre large accessions to the original be- quests endowed. THE FORTUNATE COLLROER.

Tho letters, which have been received by mail, give a vivid picture of the doings of both the insurrectionuts and the government Under date of Santiago, January 17, the correspondent says: The insurrection now ex- tends from Coquimbo to Sirra Nesta, and in spite of the reports of the government to the contrary some very serious fighting has boen done. ‘he opposition to the government is widespread. The garrison of thix city has been inereased to 15,000 men and strict watch iskept by all the troops, as though an insurrection were liable to break out at any moment in San- ‘The news that the city of Coquimbo has been surrendered to the insurgents hae had the effect of « thunderbolt in Santiago. This was not expected, and the government fear that other cities will revolt. Gen. Urutia led the revolutionists. The cruisere Magallanes and Admiral Cochrane did splendid service in the huunds of tie insurgents at the eapture of ‘this place. The cruiser Esmeralda bombarded the city of Tacahuans on the night of Jannary 15 and destroyed all the land batterics. An attentpt was made by the insurgents to land forces, but owing to the powerful garrison, which is loyal to the government, the insurgents were re- pulsed. “About 100° men were killed in this attack.

Newell Gtves an Interesting Description | of Them at All Souls’ Church. The Parish Union of All Souls’ Church, cor- ner of 14th and L streets, held its regular semi- monthly meeting last evening. The entertain- Mr. F. H. Newell of the United States geologi- cal survey on oil and gas wells. ‘This was illus- trated by stereopticon views of many localities in the oil regions of Pennsylvania, New York and Ohio. Pictures of the machinery and of the various operations connected with the drilling, torpedoing and tubing the wells were shown, and also of the ways of transporting and con- trolling the oil and gas. The most notable pictures were those of the flowing wells throw- ing oil high into the air and of the burning tanks with great clouds of smoke rising in im- mense volumes and flowing away for miles. When an oil well is completed, and at inter- vals of a year or 40, a torpedo, containing usually from 300 to 600 ‘pounds of nitro-glyce- rine, i exploded at the bottom of the well, 1,006 to 2,000 feet below the surface of the ground. This shatters the rocks, thus increas | his faux pas. Between ballots Prof Powell got up and made a speech pointing out the advan- tages of Washington as a place of meeting, and imhis brief but pointed remarks was unwise | enough to utter a sentence or two which, if not disparaging to Philadelphia or Philadelphia hotels, was not wholly comphmentary. Prof. Mealister was clearly irritated by Mr. Powell's observations, and an old gentleman in a skull cap and with snow-white whiskers glared at the speaker as savagely as his benignant expression would let him. When the second ballot was taken both of these gentlemen, who had pre- viously voted for Washington, changed over to Brooklyn, and the resul: was: Brooklyn, 32; Washington, 29. With the two votes mentioned Warhington would have barely scraped through, and Prof. Powell was sorry he criticised the Philadelphia hostelries and their prices. GOV. BULKELEY He Says if New York Wants Connecticut Convicts She Can Have Them All, In reply to Gov. Hill's communication refas- ing to honor Gov. Bulkeley’s requisition on the ground that the other was not governor of Con- necticut Gov. Bulkeléy yesterday afternoon sent the following letter to Gov. Hill: “From State of Connecticut, Executive De- partment, Hartford, February 25.

A dispatch received from Valparaiso on the 19th gives the news of an attempted capture of the city on the 18th. The insurgents were re- ulsed after « short but sharp bayonet charge y the government troops. No further action was taken by the rebels. On Jaynary 21 the president issued a procla- mation in which he called for 10,000 men from the national guard. The national guard soon responded and were mastered into service. TERMS OFFERED THE [XHUROENTS. Propositions were made to the leaders of the insurgents on the 2ist. The authorities would not state what the terms offered were, but it is known thai the offer was refused. The Magal- lanes captured the town of Pisagua without fir- ing a shot.

A daring highway robbery was committed in Broadway, New York, opposite the post office, yesterday afternoon, ‘Three men approached & pedestrian and one of them pulled a gold watch from his pocket. The victim attempted to seize the robber, but found his arms held in tight grip by the latter's companions. The robber, baviug socufed the ‘watsh, started Broadway. A cry of “stop thief” was rai and Detective Sergeant McClusky went in pur- suit. The thief dodged among the horse cars and teams in Broadway and was knocked down by a wagon pole. A passing horse stepped un his head, cutting him seriously on the back of the head and on the face. ‘The fellow was taken, to the third precinct station house and then to Chambers Street Hospital. He wae recognized as James Dowd of 334 Winter strect, who is a notorious pickpocket. The watch was not found, nor did the police capture Dowd’s con- federates. Ballot Reform in West Virginia. The Australian ballot law passed the West Virginia honse of delegates last night by a vote of $6 to 20. But one republican voted for the bill and he was loudly applauded by the demo- crats. The bill will pass the senate. Four Killed on the Panhandle. ‘The rear coach of the limited Panhandle train of the Pennsylvania railroad system from Chicago for Cincinnati jumped the track at Hagerstown, Ind., about 8:30 last evening and rolled down an embankment. Four persons HI te f a HH? i F F fi é i i FE i goat was lying. The urm was tightly ban- daged above the elbow and a small incision made ina vein, An assistant then inserted a canula ending in a rubber tube, which ex- tended to and was fixed in the carotid artery of the goat. One minute and a half sufficed to inject 150 grammes of blood, and meanwhite the patient conversed calmly and naturally. One of the women operated on was asked to describe the sensation and she said there was no sensation whatever to it beyond the prick of the lancet when the canula was inserted, and if she had not known that transfusion was progreming she chould have perceived nothing ut ail. The patients all say that the results obtained from the operations are most satisfactory. EIGHT CONSUMPTIVES SAVED. When the transfusion was completed Dr. Bernheim presented the eight patients to the audience.
