From one gallery was displayed the banner of Sedgwick Command, No. 3, Union Veterans’ Union, while the stars and stripes, on a handsome stat, hung back of the piano placed in front of the altar railing, It was the annual meeting of Sedgwick Command, and the spacious and bandsome church was well d with the comrades of that command and r friends wien Col. W. E. Kogers called the emblage to order and made a few introduc- y remarks, giving a brief but eloquent ‘ory of the command and its work. ‘The feature of the evening was the public (ou Of the officers for this year, which impressively conducted by Gen.

War with a European nation mightbe regarded as not improbable; the little dificulty we had with liaiy showed that. There might even be conflict with one of the great nations which are now regarded as barbarian. This country, by its conduct toward China, might be assuming obligations which the children or grandchildren of the present people would have to The Chinese empire could put ia the field an army greater in numbers than the combined armies of the world and still have enough avie-bodied t to man every vessel of war that floats. ‘ihe Chinese military forces wero armed with the best type of ritles and the troops were be- ing trained by French and German officers of renowa, Representative Pickler, who isa member of Sedgw ‘ick Command, created great enthusiasm by his strong advocacy of a service pension for every soldier who fought in the Union army, not asa gratuity or charity, but asa right, He told many interesting stories of the war, referred to some of iis own experiences and paid a glowing tribute to the loyal women of the north who sustained the soldiers in the field. He eaid that we did not begin to realize themomentous results of that great struggle and thas it would take at least five generations to fully comprehend the consequences of this victory for the Union. He urged that lessons of patriotism be instilled into the minds of the rising generation, so that they would have the true love of country and loyalty to the stars and stripes that actuated the soldiers who leit tieir homes and avocations to peril their lives that the government might not be disrupted. He thanked God that the country was now united, and spoke of the patriotic feeling manifested in every section of the Union in resentment of the recent insult to the uniform of the American sailor and to the fiag of the United States by Chile, : Gen. Greon Clay Smith made one of those ex- tremely happy addresses for which he is noted and told some war stories that caused much amusement.

He gave a brief sketch of the aims and objects of the order of the Union Veterans’ Union and told how it had grown since its in- stitution.

CHILE’S APOLOGY. Continued from First Page. criminal matters which are established by our laws are of slow application, and it was not possible for the president of the rep to modify or set them aside. This deley,whi was inevitable owing to the independence with which the judicial authorities must ct, has compelled the government of the undersigned to delay, greatly to its regret, the settle. ment of the difficulty pending with your government and a spontaneous offer of reparation for any _ in; done to the sailors of the Baltimore, and that might bo a:tribuied to Chilean soldiers or sailors. or that might effect the responsibility of Chile. In view of your communication, and conrider- ing that, up to date, it bas been imposs:! for the trial initinted by the judge of the criminal court of Valparaiso to be decided, the under- signed regards it as his du occurrence of October 16, and, by way of sh ing the sincerity of bis feeling and the confi- dence which he has in the justice of his cause, he declares bis willingness not to await the de- cision of the examining judge and proposes to the United States government that the case be submitted to the consideration of the Supreme Court of Justice at W gton to the end that that high tribunal, witli its learning and i partiality, may ‘det ne Wi t appeal whether there is any ground for reparation in what shape it skou'd be made.

The undersigned hopes that the foregoing will convince the bon- orabie Scerctary of State that the govern- ment of Chile attaches due importance to question ow under dircussion; that be does not for a moment hesitate to condemn in Vigorous terms the act committed on (he i6th of October or io offer such reparation as is just, and that he has not neglected the oppor- tunity to express these sentiments before now, since on various occasions aud through the plenipotentiaries of both countries 3 for- warded explicit declarations on the subject to Washington, ‘The uudersigned ta the liLerty to recall the tact’ that tive days after he hed tuken charge of the depart- ment of foreign relations he addressed to the minister of Chile in the United States a tele- gram which, in the part relating to this matier, 5 Xpress to the United States govern- men? what has already been stated, aduing all the data that are known, in the’ most cor- rect and amiable form: express to the United States government very sincere senti- ments Which, although and (not?) sirange in the of the world this government doubly laments, owing to its sincere desire to cultivate Iriend- ship with the United States. 4f the United States government should mot — accept the foregoing explanations as satisfuc- tory, notwithstanding that the judicial authorities bold the guilty parties sponsible for the disorder of October 16. the undersigned must recall the circumstane: that the government of Chile, through tie me dium of its minister in Washing‘o pressed the desire to subiuit any misuader- standing (dispute) to decision by urbitration by any power or tribunal which may be iudi- cated to it; and, im fact, arbitration Was sug- gested in conierence with the minister of Chile in Washington on the 33th of Decem- ber, when the government of the under- signed declared “its goodwill solve to accept arbiter the ment, which would many days, in furtherance of its purpose to give a speedy solution to the incident in the most friendly terms. The government of the undersigned called upon its winister for a deti- nite reply on the 11th instant, and on the 13th Minister Montt reported that, notwithstanding certain Observations made by the American State Departmens with respect to the oppor- tuneness of resorting to arbitration, he had nevertheless agreed with the Hon. Mr. Blaine that, if any divergence of views or dis- cord shonld stpervene after the verdict of the judge at Valparaiso, such controversy would yield to arbitration. The undersigned hastened to declare that he would fully accept such an agreement, for which reason the government of Chile deems that the case has arisen for sub- mitting to arbitration, in terms as ample as those above indicated, any dificrence of views which it may have with the government of the United States concerning the incident of the Baltimore. ‘There is therefore submitted to the honor- able Secretary of State of the department of foreign relations of Washington the designa- tion of either the Supreme Court of justice of the United States or a tribunal of arbitration to determine the reparation which Chile may have to make for that lamentable occurrence. As for the dispatch addressed under dave of the 11th of December by the Chilean minister in Washington by the minister of foreign rela- tions of the provisional goverameut, the un- dersigned submits that there could not be on the partof the government of Chile the pur- pose to inflict any offense upon the government Of the United States, with which it desires ever to cultivate the most friendly relations. Con- sequently, the undersigned deplores tuat in that telegram there were employed, through anerror of judgment, the expressions wisich are offensive in the judgment of your govern- ment. Declaring in the fulfillment of a high duty of courtesy and sincerity toward a friendly nation, that the government of Chile abso- jutely Withdraws the said expressions, the un- dersigned trusts that this frank and’ explicit declaration, which confirms that which ind al- ready been made to the Loporable Secretary of State in Washington, will carry to the mind of his excellency, Mr. Harrison, of his government and of the American people the conviction that the government and the people of Chile, far from entertaining a feeling of hostility, has the lively desire to maintain unalterable the good and cordial relations which, up to the present time, exist between the two countries, a decia- ration which is made without reservation in or- der that it may receive such publicity as your government may deem suitable. With regard to the suggestion made touching the change of the personnel of your legation to which the instructions of the honorabie Secretary of State refer, it is incumbent upon the under- signed to declare that the government of Chile will take no positive step without the accord of the United States, with which it desires to maintain iteelf in friendly understanding. ‘The undersigned brings this already long communication to a close in the assurance that he hus therein set forth everything that can fully satisfy your governinent. ‘fhe govern- ment of Chile cherishes the conviction that the relations with the it of the United States should be sincerely and cordially main- tained under*the shelter of that mutual respect and that good understanding which are based oe ee eee neeeerens facts and on ven spontaneous declarations mado on either side. touting ite expiacatious hie government senting its explanations his _governt the inagirntion in the torso’ ot, ton, Enctrao: hay ted and which assure Hie governuint of Olle that the President is hot disposed to exact ot ask anything which Wrocsiniesoen spontanesealy ssecedes ae + am, Your servant, (Signed) Low Perms L await instructions.

I tarther reminded you that it was adoctrine established by the American government that documents exchanged between the President and Congress or between the Department of State and the diplomatic representatives of the United States in foreign couutries could not form a subject of discussion tor foreign gov- ernmente. Lalso took the liberty to remind you of the case O/ the illustrious Webster and the repre- sentative of Austria in 1850. The Austrian government complained at that time because At cousidered the instructions sent to a repre- sentative o: the United Siates unjust or disre- specttul to Austria, the said instructions bay- ing been published with the message of the Yresident, who sent it to the Sen- ate. “This department,” said Mr. Webster, ‘hus on former vccasions informed the ini ters of forcign powers that a communicauon from the President to either house of Congress is regarded as a domestic communication, of which, ordinarily, no foreign state has cog zance, and in more recent cases the great im- propriety of making such communications a subject of correspoudence and diplomatic dis- ‘cusxion has been tully shown.” ‘The circumstance of publicity does notchange the character of the communication, in the opinion of Mr. Webster, “because such is the communications of tho President and the Senate. It was, therefore, from the nature of the note and on no other reason that I based my abstention from communica’ to you the instructions which Mr. Matta had sent me on the 1th December, and I had the honor #0 to inform you. T added, howover, that it was far from the p of my government toact in a man- ner atall offensive to the President of the United States or to any member of his cabinet, and that Mr. Matta's note, if right); interpreted, admitted of no such construction. 1 afterward had the honor to inform you that Thad received instructions from my govern- ment to inform thatof the United States that, when I had the honor tobe invited to unoffctal conferences with the representative of the De- f State (as the credentials which me as minister of Chile iad not ar hes been repeated to me on various by the United States government if ative of the United States at * persona grata to the gov- + twas sufficient for the gove lie #0 to state, and that the «aid be succeeded by another. n the nature of diplo- and designed to make them , that the representative of @ persona, grata to the goverse is nccredite ence with which you were pleased to favor me on the 20th inst, T bad er er the honor to state that the representative of e United States at Santiago was nota per na grata to the government of Chile, which Would be very giad to receive another repre- sentative trom the United States.
