Lonpox, Oct. 81.—Advices just received from Hiogo, Japan, report a terrible earthquake as having on Wednesday last destroyed the towns of Nagoya, Gifuand Ojaki. All the pub- lic buildings and most of the smaller structures in those placos were thrown down. In Nagoya, one of tho first cities of the empire, fire broke out and completed the work of destruction. It is estimated that not less than 3,000 human beings lost their lives. In the vicinity of Hiogo many vessels are reported wrecked. During the scismic disturbance the waters of the lakes in the surrounding country were vio- lently agitated. Few portions of Niphon Island escaped the effects of the earthquake, but the town of Kobe suffered comparatively little damage. The various wagon roads are blockaded by immense heaps of debris, and railroad traftic is entirely suspen Owing to the complete prostration of the telegraph lines full details of thie terrible ity cannot yet be ascertained. een THE TROUBLE AT BRICEVILLE.

The interest in the stock market is almost en- tirely confined to the “room traders: the out- side public are absent or listlessly waiting: the operatorsof large means and large transactions are waiting for prices to dtop—although some think they are buying some specialties quietly; and Laon though doing more than has been expected of it, isso vacillating that it affords no pags to the market; the trouble there be- ing that purchases are constantly mace in ex- ¢tation of a rise at New York. which hope being disa) inted selling quickly follows the buying. There is one fact, however, that de- serves notice, viz, that the constant attacks of the “bears” fail to produce any general or im- portant yielding in prices. This suggests that there is confidence enough to induce persist- ence in holding, and prol also means that margins are in good shape, which is the more probable from the fact that those now in the market heve made handsome profits out of the antecedent rise. Thursday's market wasexposed to two new in- fluences, which, however, about offset each other. As had been generally anticipated, the Bank of England rate of discount was put up to 4 per cent, which reflected the hardening ten- dency in the London money market and the e! fect upon the bank of the continued large shi ments of gold to New York. The action of the bank, whose reserve is now reduced below age, must be re; fensive ously with the advance in the bank rate came the news that Russia has forbidden the export of all kinds of grain. If, therefore, the report pedheeaesse) oe a — may anticipate a corresponding increase in ange of gold and # movement of grain to the seaboard which it will require the utmost ca- pacity of the railroads to accommodate. As today isahalf — the exchange will be closed on Tuesday, full effects of these new factors are somewhat Fong “wong and their first force checked. But, after these interruptions, the market should be watched for indications of a revival. 5; 9 at 15%. Government’ Bonds—U. 8. 4s, ‘Tegistered, 1907, 116% bid, 1171 is asked.

The President and Mr. Blaine Consult About the Chilean Situation. INSTRUCTIONS TO MR. EGAN. ‘What They Are Not Yet Revealed—His Course Sald to Have Been Moderate—Secretary ‘Tracy on the Equipment of Crulsers—The Question of Arbitration. —_——___ This morning brought no new developments in the Chilean situation. The point has been reached, it is said, where there must be some delay before action is taken one way or the other. There is no evidence of an abatement of the hostile and defiant feeling of the Chileans and while this country has no disposition to bully a weaker nation it is asserted that the administration is determined that our dignity shall be maintained and that there shall be some sort of reparation made by the junta for the affrouts that have been put upon this coun- try. Mr. Blaine had a conference with the President this morning, and it is believed that instructions have been sent to Mr. Egan, but noone knows the nature of the instructions, further than may be inferred from the knowledge that the State Department resents the attitude of the junta, which adds insult to injury. Of course they feel that there is nothing for us to get excited about, but with determination and without haste it is proposed to bring Chile to her senses by whatever means is necessary. SENOR MONTT AND MR. BLAINE. Senor Montt had a long interview with Mr. Blaine yesterday, which he conducted in a much more conciliatory tone than that as- sumed by the Chilean minieter of foreign af- fairs, but while the interview was amiable there was no promise in it of a solu- tion of the difficulty. Senor Montt is in ergooyd communication with his govern- ment, but presents no conciliatory suggestions from them. Zt is understood that be has upon Mr. Blaine the propripty of waiting awhile for the investiguion by the Chileas authorities to be completed, and it is that there may be gome delay of action by the State Department On this account. One thing, however, which must be assumed as certain is that whatever consideration we show Chile in ‘his matter is because of her weakuess and ade- sire on the part of the administration not to be Placed in the attitude of bullying a weaker hation. indications that tho purposes of the are not appreciated by the junta, which as big with bravado, and that atger a reasonable delay has been had the situation will not have been improved any. The government is said to be Satisfied of the extremely hostile feeling enter- tained by the Chilean government toward the United “ States and consequently is to sce the attitude of de- maintained. course Chile has adopted cannot fail to iead to serious re- sults if persisted in. It is probable that ina very few days the Chicago, the Philadelphia, e Atlanta and the Newark will be ordered to Valparaiso. It is regarded as possible at any moment that word may be received that there has been another assault upon Americans. MR. EGAN DID mGHT. There appears to be no warrant whatever for the assumption that Mr. Egan did not present to the Chilean government the communica- tion just as received by him from this gov- ernment in his instructions. He states in his reply that he did and it was probably only the hostile feeling of the minister of foreign affairs that made him see in it that which he terms threatening. It is in- sisted at the State Department that Mr. Egan has conducted himseli in the most fitting man- ner throughout the whole business and bas thown himself fully capable to perform the duties of a diplomat with credit to this country. Instead of to as accused, it is asserted that he has been exceedingly for- bearant and has acted with discretion, but that no matter how opinions may differ as to the matter of Mr. Egan, he is not the issue in this instance in any sense. In connection with the discussion of the probability of war with Chile it may be of ver- | tome interest to recall what Sccretary Tracy garded as the beginning ofade-| id a short time since about the difficulty ttitude to retain its gold. Simultane- | lying in the way of sending the larger cruisers into service, then speaking of China. LACK OF EQUIPMENT. On this subject he said: “We have been un- able to send out new ships to the Asiatic waters on account of the difficulties which have attended their proper equipment up to the present time. On the 4th of Mareh, 1>89, we bad four new ships,armed with modern guns, but we bad no modern brown powder for guns of larger caliber than six inches, and there was nota single armor-piercing projectile in the country, nor was there any person who could make them. As soon as this defect wus dis- covered measures were taken to remed; it. Brown powder for our cight-incl guns was obtained in December, 1890, and our first armor-piercing projectiles inspec- tion in June of the present year, 1891. Even now for our 6-inch guns, including those which were delivered by the contractor within the past ten days, we have only enough of the lat- ter, to equip the Boston and Atlanta or the Chicago. We endeavored to furnish the Charleston with fifty of those — shells for her 8-inch guna before she left San Fran- cisco for Honolulu, but they could not be had in time and she was com to sail without them. Orders have been sent, however, for them to be shipped to her by freight, ABOUT THE TORPEDOES. “All of our lates: ships are designed to carry torpedoes. When, therefore, we have deter- mined upon the torpedo which we are to use every vessel must be completed at our navy yards by the insertion of its torpedo tubes and launching apparatus, and our officers and men must be taught on the home station how to use them In January, 1889, my predecessor made a contract with the Hotchkiss Ordnance Company to manufacture the Howell torpedo, by which contract the company was bound tc deliver their first torpedocs in Jaly, 1890. The time for the completion of this contract has been extended from time to time to the present date, but no deliveries hare. yet been made. The company supposed, early in 1890, that they produce’ a! succetstal torpedo. The several trials which wero had at Newport prot unsuccessful, however, the department it unsafe to rely longer upon the Howell torpedo, and in May, 1890,took steps to acquire the Whitehead torpedo, the most successful automobile torpedo in ‘use in Europe. The contract was made with an ican firm by which the first Whitehead to: is to be de- livered in November of this year. In the meantime the Hotchkiss company has been prosecuting itsexperiments with the Howell hoped that before the close of the we shall succeed in producing pedo and that we goon and complete our wi present, for the reason givens, by no means in & condition of normal effectiveness. can nations recently in session at Wi relating to the eub af taternations] erties: In the officiat the President re about any change of sentiment since those words were penned.

THE CHILEAN VIEW.
