This waa General Raum’s first day in town since the publication of the scan dal concerning his son. It was expected that the general would at once golo President Harrison and signify his willingness to re- sign if the latter desired the resignation. He was not at the pension office more than an hour throughout the day, so that the officials thero believed that his absenco was due to an interview at tho white house. About 3 o'cloc noon your correspondent saw i and asked him if he had sigmfied to the president his willingness to resign, He said I have not had an opportunity to seo the president as yet, but I will call on him soon as 1 can. It will be left wholly with him and with the secratary of the interior as to my continuing in the pen- wion oftice. 1 fecl very positive that they will both give me every consideration.” Later in the day Gieneral Raum called at the interior department upon Assistant Sec- retary Bussey, one of the officials who inves tigated some of the transactions in whi young Raum was connected. 1t is bolieved that General Itaum will seo the president to- morrow, and that at the meeting it will bo finally decided whether he is to hold the fort and fight out his battles or retire, NATIONAL BANK RESERVE AGENTS.

He said they were Amer- can citizens under contract to perform labor upon specified terms within American ter- ritory, removed from any opportunity to appeal to the courts or pub- lic oficers for the redress of any injury or to perform ang civii rigit. Their ~ employers were, iu fact, their masters. Kscapo was impossible. It was a state of things generally such as might make them reckless and desperate.

When the home team hit the ball it it it hard and made every one count. In the ninth inning Omaba had two men on bases with 1o one out, but they remained there as the next thrao failed to connect with the ball Shanuos put up a beautiful game at second, despite his one evror.

Dalrymple led at the bat with a triple and two singles Eitlejorg pitehed a splendid game, with the exception of the fourth aud sixtn innings, all the hits but one being made in those two iunings. Smith was touched up lively in the first part of the game, but settied down after the third and kept the hits well scattered, Burke's home-run drive over left field fence was the longest It of the season. Milwaukeo scorad bov first runs in the fourth, Burke's home-drive, Dalry mple triple ‘and Donnelly’s wild throw netting three runs, In the sixth Grifiin's error, two singles, a double and triple were responsible for four more, The ninth was productive of two tallies, an error of Shunnon’s, Schoch's double and Dalrymple's sacrifico doing the work. Omaha scored the first runs of the game in the secoud. Grillin took first on batls, Walsh and Donni ngled, Griflin scoving. McCau- forced Donnelly out at second, Walsh scoring.

Rumors Qurrent That President Balmacada Will 8oon Be Victorious. PROMINENT FAMILIES LEAVING SANTIAGO. nt Advices State That Charleston Has Again Star.ed in Pursuit of the Itata, Navy Departm the W Y ork, May 18.—Lotters and papers received by the last mail from South America contain interesting facts concerning the trouble in Chili. Thero seoms to bo a prob bility of the immediate ending of the war. At Valparaiso business is at a standstill Many prominent families ace leaving Santiago for Buenos Ayres to avoid prosecution ut the bands of the dictator. The principal busiress portion of lquique has been destroyed, but the remainder of tho town escaped serious damage. The danger of a famine is now over. Balmacoda’s army is said to consist at present of 40,000 men. Chilian soldiors ara boing i into foreign torei- tory. The in the Ar gontine Ropublic and Bolivia, and ru Charleston Again in T WasiixGroy, May 18.—Just o'clock this afternoon the navy department received confirmation of the pross dispatoh 10 the effect that the Charleston safled south ward from Acapuloo last evening, leaving uit. before 4 the Esmeralda in port. There was no word of the Itata. The presumption is that the Charleston’s commander was satisfied that the Itata had passed Acapulco, either before she arrived t re or while she lay =i port, and that she has resumed the long chase, Itis estimated that the Itata has been steaming aloni at about seven knots, and as she was ten days out last Frid mght she could at that time have been just off Acapulco, where it is reported at that port shoe met the Usmeralda, ~ As she Is a much smallor vessel than the Esweralda and burns very much less conl, it is resarded as within the probub- ilities that the latter vossel might have sup- plied her with this necessity, which would account for the ¢ traits the war ship is now in respeeting hier <apply of coal. If it be true that the Itata was off Acapulco Friday night she had two full days start of the Charleston when the latter started again in pursuit last night. This is about the same lead that she had when she started from San Diego, so it does not ap- pear that the Charleston is any nearer a con- clusion. But if the two vesséls now tollow the same course, the Charleston, steaming at fourteen kuots an hour, should come up with the Itata by tomorrow night. This event of course is based upon the assump- tion, which is not founded upon strong prob- ability, that the two vessels ave steering ex- actly the same course. 1f the Charleston passos the Itata the next port where they ure likely to be heard from is Panauta, about tweive hundred miles from Acapulco, or Hayti, Peru, still further down the coast, As'itis the vessels have probably covers less than half the distance to Iquique, the nearest Chilian port Forced an Apology, SaN Fraxcisco, Cal, May 18.—A copy of the Chilian Times, which reached hore by the steamer San Blas, aunounced that by special agreement with (ermany, Great Britain is taking German intertests in Chili under her protection until the arrivalof three German war ships which are now en route. The Times says the War- spite forced an apology out of the msurgent man-of-war Blanco Encalado just before the latter was sunk by the tor- pedo boats. . The Blanco was engaged in the blockading Iquiquo when she, with other vessels of the blockading fleet, ran out of coal. The English and German merchant- men were lying side by side, both coal laden. The rebel ficet took hold of them on the pre- tense that they were in range in the event of firing, and towed them out to sea, despite the protests of the captain. Out of rangeo the fort’s guns the insurgents made a forced purchase of such coal as they needed. They voiuntarily paid an extravagant price of it, but névertheless the captain of the vessel reported the matter to British Ad- miral Holham, who cave the Blanco the op- tion of apologizing or fighting inside of twon- ty-four hours. It was then 11:30 0. m. Pre- isely at noon the Blanco ran up the British and German flags above the rebel standard and fired a_general salute. The coal would haye been replaced and the ships towed back to their former anchorage but for the fact that most of the coal had been burned and the two merchant ships had no further business at [quigne. The I \d Minnie Case. Sax Dikco, Cal, May I8.—The United States grand jury, which has boen invest- fgating the Robert and Minnio case, examined at considerable longth the men who deserted from the Itata when she was in this port. They told & story much the samoe as already published about the movements of the Itata and Esmeralda: said the latter carried ninety sailors and sixty soldiers, four sixty-pound guns and lot of rifles. The latter wera secreted in the hold together with the soldiers, before coming into San Diego. It was understood by everybody aboard that the Itata was on the lookout for a schooner with a cargo of rifies and other munitions of war, which were to be taken off and transferred later to the Esmeralda. The vessels were prepared to fight in case of trouble. As near as can be learned it was the intention of the Itata and Esmeralda to meet at a point on the oast const of Lower California. If the smeralda met the Itata there before roturning to Apulco, the runaway steamer has undoubt edly slipped by the Charleston and is now on her way to Iquique, Solicitor General Taft has issued subpoe- nas on representatives of the Western Union and Postul Telegraph companies to produce all telegrams handled by- them in the past month relating to Chilian” affairs Spoke the Esmeralda. SAN Fiascisco, Cal,, May 15.--The steam- ship Newbern arrived from Mexican ports today. The ksineralda was sighted on the down trip of the Nowbern at Cape San Lucas, Twooflicers of tho Esmeralda vis- ited the Newbern and asked Captain Vor Helms which was the nearest coaling station The latter directed them to San Diego, ‘Th suid nothing about taking coal from the New Lern, and after stating that the Itata had gone to Vancouver took their leave, GARRISON MURDEK TRIAL, An Witness Testifies to an En- ter Preceding the Tragedy.
