The mails from Chili bring exciting news from that demoralized republic. The house of deputies has passed a bill authorizing the presi- dent to levy forced loan of $20,000,000 te carry on the war. The measure has not yet passed the senate, however. Under an order from the executive, carriages are not permitted to drive on the streets of Santiago after midnight, under a penalty of $50 for the first offense and €200 for the second. A decree has also been issued prohibiting groups of more than three persons standing together in the streets, squares or public places of Santiago. Persons guilty of an infringement of this de- cree will be liable to a fine of $25 to $100. By another decree all the theaters of Santi- agoare closed until further notice.

It *has been reported here that Secretary Blaine ie gaining strength rapidly at Bar Har- bor and his condition is vastly better than it was when he left New York forthe Maine coast. He isnot taking an active part in the transactions daily occurring at the Department of State, but he is kept advised in a general way of the workings of his department. He proposes to spend the summer at Bar Harbor, as has been his custom for many years, and and does not intimate when he proposes to re- turn to Washington. A special to the New York Recorder from Augusta, Me., says: Mr. Blaive drives out and holds conferences by wire with the President at Washington. One of these conferences preceded the signing of the sealing agreement. The sending of the two naval vessels to Bering sea is at Mr. Blaine’s telegraphic request. Afriend of Mr. Blaine when asked if Mr. Blaine would be a presidential candidate in 1892 said that there would be no contest for the nomination between Mr. Blaine and Mr. Harrison. The expressed feeling of the country will be their guide. Either will support the other cordially, according as this feeling is shown. Lieut. Swift's Court-Martial. The court-martial for the trial of First Lieut. James A. Swift, ninth cavalry, convened at Washington barracks yesterday morning and adjourned subject to the call af the president of the court, Col.

SUFFERING AT SEABRIGHT. *TWILL BE A GREAT EVENT, The Banquet to the Clover Club to Be Given Tonight in Chicago. Cwrcago, June 18.—The record of Chicago has many a notable banquet to its cgedit, but there will be an event tonight that will eclipse everything in that Itne that bas gone before. The scene will be in the grand banqueting hall of Kinsley’s, the guests the members of the noted Clover Club of Philadelphia, with the ad- dition of some hundred Chicagoans, prominent | in all walks of life, and the host Mr. James W. Scott of the Chicago sieraid. The guests from | Philadelphia arrived here on a special train at a late hour last night. Among them are Judges Deeds George D. Pierce, Mayor Edwin A. Stuart, Louis Magarge, Bradford Merrill, Royal W. Merrill, Wm. Bunn'and James R. Young, all noted journalists; Gen. Felix Agnus, the pub- lisher of the Baltimore American; Sol Smith Russell, Dr. M. L. Ruth, U.S.N., of the New- ark; Charles A. Deacon of the Reading railroad, Benton K. Jamieson, the banker, Georj Boyd of the Pennsylvania railroad, Charles W. Brook, the famous criminal lawyer of New York, and others to the total of thirty. Henry Watterson will come from Louisville and ex-Goy. W. D. Hoard from Wisconsin, and the local guests will include Mayor Washburne, Col. RK. E. A. Crofton, commandant of Fort Sheridan; ex-Senator Valmer of Michigan and president of the world’s Jair commission; Hon. George R. Davis, director general; ex-Minister Frederick S. Winston and Gen.

Orders for the clover to be used in decorating pur- poses were placed with local florists four months ago, and will represent the product of scores of acres of ground. The menu will be of twenty courses and of the most elaborate description. ‘The guests will sit down at 7 o'clock jn the evening. At what hour the adjournment will be declared is purely @ matter of speculation. DECORATIONS OF CLOVER BLOSSOMS. On the third floor the staircase, fireplaces and the immense mirrors are banked with clover blossoms. The bannisters leading from this floor to the fourth, where the banqueti hall is located, will also be of clover in leaf an inbloom. Running the full length of the ball on the east and the west sides will be canvases with landscapes of clover painted thereon. Fronting the table of honor will be a table clover-leaf in and piled high with the papain lant. From between the stalks Mitle pigs will peop and grunt, and probably blink, as theif eves come in contact with the score of more of incan- descent electric lights that will also nestle beneath the leaves. There will be four tables running longitudinally from the table of honor. Concealed from view in the gallery by a cur- tain of laces and clover- ‘wiike will be a mandolin ochestra, while in the far corner of the room under a canopy of clover there will be agrand organ. ‘The menu will be A SIGHT WORTH SEEING. The “mutton course” alone of the banquet would be worth traveling thousands of miles to see. Four platters, containing as many roasted sheep. will be borne aloft by waiters in white linen suits. The sheep will be whole even to the heads, except that the eyes will be artificial. ‘The four carvers, each with a bran new silver- handled carving knife and fork grasped firm in their hands, will lead tne procession. They will be attired in white aprons, white jackets and white helmets, surmounted by what college boys know as “mortar-boards.” The warriors of this peculiar regiment will be James W. Nye, James W. Scott, F. W. Rice and Moses P. Handy, the latter president of the Philadelphia Clov. Club and promoter general of the world’s fair. A LUDICROUS scEXE. As the solemn procession enters the ban- queting hall the guests will rise to their feet and, led by the grand organ, will sing the fol- lowing solemn refrain: When I went down to Darby, ait, "Lwas on a market day; ‘I met the finest ram, sir, . ‘That ever was fed'on hay, Chorus. ©: What aram, O! What a ram, Sing ingle, ingle, Darby, sir, sing Jingle, jingle, Sing fiugle, jingle, Darby, sing jingle, jingie, jay. OMhatatameo! Waal stan.

Crrx or Mxxico, June 18.—A cloud burst killed at least twenty-three people and many mules, besides doing great damage to property at the Concepcion mine in San Luis Potosi yee terday. Shortly before noon it began to blow and rain and after awhile it appeared jas if the floodgates of the heavens had been’ unloosed. The water came in almost a solid mass, an when the clouds had passed a that bouses hac! been washed awa: ain streams were raging and mules in the mines were swept away the deluge. The latest reports place the nul ber of bodies recovered at twenty-three. Se far thirty more persons are known to have been burt. ; fe Sr. Lovia, Mo., June 18.—Additional partion~ lars of the terrible cataxtrople which occurred on Sunday inst near the mining city of Catorco, in the state of San Luis Potosi, Mexico, are to the effect that the cloud burst in ‘Concepcion mountain and « great stream poured down the mountain side, sweeping every thing course. The habi tations occupied by the miners were swept away and the tunnel of Guadaloupe mine filled with Water, drowning several miners who were working inside. A number of people living in chit dwellings were buried alive. At Lacruces aud El Potrero, on one side of the, mountain and Los Catorce on the othe fiftcen dead bodies have been recovered and there are believad to be many more. The min ing companies’ losses are heavy. Large quan- Uties of Ligh grade metal were carried away by the flood at the Conception property. Hundreds of pack animal were drowned. These are the meager details so far received from this remote district, though people here knowing the Jocality'believe chat there must Lave been at least fifty lives lost. —— A RAILWAY TO ALASKA Charles Francis Adams Does Not Think the ‘Time for It Has Yet Arrived. Crxcrexart, Oxso, June 18.—Hon. Charles Francis Adams of Boston, ex-president of the Union Pacific railway, has written « letter to E. H. Wells, the Alaskan explorer, concerning the latter's published scheme for building a railway to Alaska. Mr. Adams says: “When I was last in the do- minion and also in Alaska it seemed fo me not impossible that the time might come when a railroad would be needed and would be re- munerative from Winnipeg northwesterly into the mining country of Alaska; but I was equally persuaded of the fact that this time had not come. Neither do I believe it will come within the next ten or fifteen years.” This significant letter will attract attention from railway managers all over the country. It is construed as # conservative admission from Mr. Adams that the Alaskan railway may actually be built within the neat tweuty years, thus forming «link of the chain that is to connect the czur's Siberian rail@ays with America. —_—_ SAILED INTO THE CLOUDS, Aa Aecronaut Falls From the Balleon—Ter- Tible Fate of the Occupants, Paare, June 18.—A fatal balloon tmp, result ing, almost toa certainty, in the loss of three noon. A balloon containing « professional seronaut and two other jyersons made an ascent about midday from La Villette, the aerial ven- ture being watched by crowds of people. When tht balloon bad reached a height of not more than sixty feet from the groufd the seronaut, who had busily engaged about the outade of the car, was seen to suddenly lose his bal- ‘ance, make a desperate effort to regain it and then’fell whirling to the earth. He was picked up so terribly injured that it is said there is no Prospect of saving his life. In the meanwhile the balloon and its two re- maining occupants, both of whom were utterly ignorant of the manner in which ® balloon is bandied, mounted up higher and higher into the air, growing to the mght smaller and smaller until it was finally lost sight of entirely among the clouds. The government officials have tele- graphed to the prefects in the outlying depart- ments to make all the inquiries possible in re- gard to the fate of the two occupants of the balloon, but up to this time nothing has been heard of their whereabouts. It is feared that the balloon will ascend toa height that will cause its unfortunate occupants to be frozen to death, and that the balloon will soon after col- lapse, and its remains,together with the bodies of the two unfortunate, way find @ final rest- ing place in the ocean. annaillpieesiale THEY SOLD STATE SECRETS, ‘The Men Convicted of Bartering the Secret of Melinite Take an Appeal.
