Loxpox, Jan. 25.—The Times’ correspond- ent cables from Santingo that it is understood that Chile will agree to submit all the questions between that country and the United States to arbitration. SLAPS AT MINISTER EOAN. The St. James Gazette this afternoon, re- ferring to the Chilean crisis, says that “Much may be excused in a country which had an enyoy of Patrick Egan's character thrust upon it,” adding that “It would be difficult to #uj pose that either of those high-spirited republics feally mean business.” The Globe says: “The Chilean anxiety to get rid of Minister Egan was justified by a more than determination to ‘keep him in Chil based upon stronger reasons than recognition of bis merits. It will bo a long time before the United States again gives a Fenian a diplo- matic post.” ‘The Pall Mail Gazette rays: “Itia difficult to understand why the United States harasses Chile the way it isdomg. The fact that Minis ter Egan's son is prosecuting Chile for revoking railway concession throws a flood of light upon the subject.” Activity at Fort Leavenworth. Curcaco, Jan. 25.—A dispatch from Leaven- worth, Kan., says: The possibility of a war with Chile has thoroughly stirred up the mili- tary at Fort Leavenworth. Orders of somo kind have been received from the War Depart- ment and there is unusual activity among the officers and soldiers. In case war should be declared the cavalry and artillery stationed at the fort would be sent to the Pacific coast at once. The infantry, six companica, would scon follow. There is a large supply of war mate- rial stored at the garrison that could be and would be sent west on.short notice. feeling among the army people is strong for a brush with thoChileans.” Eepecinlly is thie the case with the young student oflicers, about thirty in number, attending the military train- ing school. ‘They arc anxious for war.

Partapenrnta, Jan. 25.—To equip and repair the iron turreted steelf hulled monitor the Montauk the United States government will spend €25,000.

The Uncle of the Czar of Russia Passes Away. Sr. Perenspono, Jan. 25.—The Grand Duke Nicolaewitch Constantine, the grandson and fourth child of the Emperor Nicholas of Russia and uncle of the present ezar, died today. The late Grand Duke Constantine, who was nd admiral of the imperial fleet, was born eptember 21 (or, according to the old style, which is still in use in Russia, on September 9), 1827. He was educated for the naval serv- ice, having as his tutor Admiral Luttke, the circumnavigator of the globe, under whose orders the grand duke subsequently sorved and obtained tho rank of post captain in the Russian navy. In his capacity as admiral the Grand Duke Constantine once arrested his elder brother, the late Emperor of Russia, who was ou board his ship at the time. For this the Grand Duke Constantine was himself placed under arrest for considerable time by his father. The late grand admiral of the im- perial navy married August 30, 1848, the Princess Alexandra, daughter of Duke Joseph of Saxe-Altenburg. In addition to be- ing grand admiral of Russia, the Grand Duke Constantine was commandant of the fourth brigade, infantry of the guard, colonel of the regiment of huzzars of the late Grand Duke Michael Paulowitch, a member of the council of military schools and prestdent of the grand couneil of the empire. ——__.

The State Department today received « cablegram from Minister Egan to the effect that President Montt was absent from Santiago at the baths, = summer rosort in the mountains, and that Senor Poriera, the minister of foreign affairs, had requested a delay of a day or two before answering the de- mands of the United States for indemnity and an apology. This was for the purpose of coin- municating with President Montt, and will preclude the possibility of any answer to Pres- ident Harrison's ultimatum for several days to come. Severat Days ‘THE PmILADSLPHta’s TR: Naval news at this juncture is an exceedingly scarce commodity. This morning the stories about tho Philadelphia going to Gibraltar to head off the Chilean cruiser Capitan Prat, which were extensively printed yesterdi were the subject of grave discussion among naval officers, and it was universally voted that whether they were true or not the movoment ‘indicated would be | as shrewd a trick as could be’ devised. There has been a strong denial of the story from Secretary Tracy, yet on all sides is heard the comment that it would be very un- natural if he should not deny, for in time of war nothing can be admitted that will throw any light on a proposed campaign. chief of bureau talking with a Stan re- see, 2 morning said tbat the run from the Rarbadoca to the Straits is 3,00 miles, or couple of hundred more miles than from New York to Liverpool, and hé added these signiai- cant words: He will stop at the Maderia Islands.

The armyis ready at all times and the navy is not. Almost every year for the past quarter of a century the arm} has beon occupied with Indian troubles in thi west, and asa result may be said to be always ona war footing.

The militia, you know, can only be called upon for home duty, but they would take the place of the regular army, and in the event of a war Congress would call for volunteers and an army of 100,000" men, all properly drilled and equipped could be secured from the Na- tional Guard and placed in the field without much dificulty. We are not on the lookout for serious trouble just now, but the army is all ready for whatever mify huppen.” AN IRISH REGIMENT OFFERED. Col. P. J. O'Kelly, commanding the second regiment, volunteers of New York city, called on Secretary Elkins this morning and tendered the services of that regiment in the event of a war with Chile. The organization is composed of 1,000 Irish-American citizens. Col. O'Keily was accompanied by Hepresentative Stabi- necker. WAR PEELING IX CONGRESS. In expectation of the President's message the galleries of the House and Senate werecrowded some time before the hour of meeting today. Members also were in their seats early and there was a general fecling of anx- ious expectation and excitement, Those persons who have been declaring that the situation was not as serious us the newspapers made it out, were moxtly silent of their opinions. That the course of the President in communicating with Congress indi- cated that diplomacy bad failed and that the country is on the verge of war was the general opinion. The war feeling is evidently stronger in Congress than it has been at any time, and as much as the necessity for it might be deplored the feeling is that hostilities are almost certain to follow. It is apparent that it is the determina- tion of the leading men, without regard to party, to sustain the administration and to take such course as the message and correspondence showed to be necessary. triotic feeling of Co: is clearly aroused. "It has pot taken aform os to made hot haste ossible, but is earnest and determined. Vhile hoping for peace and ready to be magnanimons as far as magnanimity is honor- able the majority of Congress seem to be ready to give authority for any form of compulsion that appears necessary to secure reparation from Chile for the in- sults she has offered. The character of the correspondence, which was known to some of the members before the message was received and 60 became generaily understood, vas such nto increase the general feeling that vigorous setion was deman: THE MESSAGE ABRIVES.

In the diplomatic galleries of the Senate were representatives of the French and British legations; in the House, the Japanese minister and suite and others of the diplomatic corps. $< FOKMER COMMENTS Made by the President and Secretary Tracy That Are of Interest Now. At this present crisis im the Chilean trouble it may be more than usually interesting to re- fer to the comments made upon the Itata and Baltimore incidents by the President and Sec- retary ‘Tracy. In his offensive telegram to the Chilean minister in this city, that was also circulated among the European countries, Senor Matta, the min- ister of foreign affairs the Chilean provisional government,epoke of the alleged inaccuracies that occurred in the statements made by the President and by the Secretary of the In his message to Congress at the asembling of that body in December the following account of the Baltimore incident was given: “On the 16th of October an event oceurred in Valparaiso so serious and tragic in its circum- ¥ justly excite the indignation of our people and to call for prompt and decided action on the part of this Govern- ment. Aconsiicrable number of the sailors of the United States steamship Baltimore, then im the harbor of Valparaiso, being upon shore leave and unarmed, were ‘assauited by armed men nearly simultaneously in different localities in the city. One petty officer was killed outright and seven or eight seamen were seriously wounded, one of whom tas since died. So savage and brutal was the assault that sev- eral of our sailors received more than two, and ‘one as many as eighteen stab wounds. Au in- vestigation of the affair was promptly made by a board of officers of the Baltimore and their report shows that these assaults were unprovoked, that our men were conducting themselves in a peaceable and orderly manner, and that some Of the police of the city took part in the assault and used their weapons with futal effect, while a few others, with some well-disposed citizens, endeavored to protect our men. Thirty-six of our sailors were arrested, and some of them, while being taken to prison, were cruelly beaten and maltreated. The fact charge being lodged against any one of them, shows very clearly that they were innocent of any breach of the peace. “So faras I have yet been able to learn no other explanation of this bloody work has been suggested than that it hadits origi in hostility to these men as sailors of the United States, wearing the uniform of their Governmen:, and not in auy individual act of per- sonal animosity. “The attention of the Chilean Government was at once called to this affair, andastatement of the facts obtained by the investigation we had conducted was submitted, wccompatied by a request to be advised of any other or qualifying facts in the possession of the Chilean Government that might tend to relieve this affuir of the appear- ance of an insult to this Government. The Chilean Government was also advised that if such qualifying facts did not exist this Govern- ment would confidently expect full and prompt reparation. “It is to be regretted that the reply of the secretary for foreign «faire of the provisional overnment was couched in an offeusive tone, ‘To this no response has been made. This Government is now awaiting the re- sult of an investigation which has been con- Ancted by the criminal court ut Valparaiso, It is reported unofficuliy the investigation in about completed, and it is ex that the result will'soon be communicated to this Government, together with some adequate and satisfactory response to the note by which the attention of Chile was called to this incident, If these just expectations should be disappointed or further needless delay intervene, I will, by a special message, bring this matter aguin to the attention of Con reas for such action as may be necessary. “The entire correspondence wi govern- ment of Chile will at an early day be sub- mitted to Congress.
