Nov. 1 Inquiries spe cially mmle to nscertaiu the conditioa o! public fee. in? on (he subject of tbe diffi culty with the United States thows tbit the fiery sentiments which prevailed against Americans has considerably cooled down. The Chilian talk more ra tionally as to the Amerivsn request for reUres-i, atr.l there is a growing disposi tion to see that justice is done to those who assaulted the American sailors ani k tiled two of them. Undoubted'.? the re pcrt telegraphed from Xew York of the formidable fleet said to be on its way to Pacific waters has scnjetliitm to do with the. change of sentiment in Valparaiso, it least. The people here are loo anxious for a bombardment. Too Little British Sympathy. The Ideajhat England would resist an attempt at bombardment of Valparaiso is dead, and now that it is evident that the only British ally would be the corres pondent of the London Times, to whuse commands the American admiral wonld probably not ptjy much attention, the situation is different and Valparaiso bas concluded not to coart a bombardment. Consequently Americans are treated with more respect, and there is no disposition to do violence to American officers or seamen. Captain Schley's conduct meets with universal praise. He has been calm and deliberate undei the most provoking circumstances, and combined with dig nity and firmness, this has won him the re spect even of the lower and less intelli gent, as well as the superior, class. The Inquiry Into to the Riot. The evidence in the preliminary inquiry as to the attack On the sailors is said to be complete. The Chilian method of exami nation ispeculiar.and somewhat resembles the French. The mngistrate bas each per son accussed or under suspicion brousht before bim separately.wituuut couusel.and subjected to riiiid examination to which there is no limit of relevancy. There Is no doubt that in some instances physical torture is applied, although the law for bids it. DursngtherecentstruesrleneitLer side hesitated to use tortures t f the most horrible kind In order to extort confes sion, and iu most caes the Chilian police wink at such modes. There is no reason to believe that any of the Chilians impli cated in the riot have been tortured. The American t'nnsnl Prevent. On the contrary the general report is that their treatment b.i been very mild, and that Judge of Crimes Foster has not been anxious to elicit fact that would Ftrengthen the cause of the United State. The deliberate or final examination was going on yesterday before Judge Foster, with the American coosnl present, and the result is awaited with much interest. It is said that the depositions exculpate the Chilian police from auy share iu the outrage. The police claim that they did not use undue violence, aud only acted for the preservation of the peace. Mill Jninpin; on Balmaeedana. Although nearly three months bave elapsed since the downfall of President Balmaceda not only t he Judicial and polit ical authorities, but also the new congress are occupied chiefly with the prosecution of Balmaceda' adherents. Congress bas ordered a suit to be instituted against Kncina, one of the leading associates of Balmaceda, for his share in the emission of 145,000,000 of hank notes as currency during the revolution. It is claimed that the emission was illegal, and that the money waa expended for many unlawful purposes, besides the alleged treasonable one. of carrying on war against the con gressional ista. FONSECA'S NAVAL OPERATIONS. Aa Attempt to Land Soldiers That Was f t Frowned I'pon. Montevideo, Not. 21. There is an in definite report of an attempt on the part of Fonseca's naval force to land a body of troops near Barbosa, a small port in the north of Rio Grande do Sul, not far dis tant by land from Port d'Alegre. The . water proved too shallow for the vessels to come near the shore, and a hostile dis play by an armed force of the junta de ferred the Fonesca admiral from attempt ing to land in small boats. ' I find the Royal Baking Powder far superior to the others. It is pure, contains none but wholesome in gredients, is of 23 per cent, greater strength. F. X. ValadE, M. D., Public Analyst, Dominion of Canada. The Royal Baking Powder is perfectly healthful, and free from every deleterious substance ; purest in quality and highest in strength of any baking powder of which I have knowledge. Wm. McMurtrie, E. M., Ph. D., Late Chief Chemist Agricultural Department. The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure. It is undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking powder offered to the public. Henry A. Mott, Ph. D., Late Chemist for U. S. Government. mne fople Not Friendly. f Fonseca'i vessels did not throw any shells or attempt to injure Barbosa, keeping up apparenily a pretense of friendliness to which t he eople on shore did not respond in a similai spirit. The junta sent an addi tional force Thursday to liio Grinde do Sul, that pi tee bein the key to the sittia- uuu iroill a ueieu;vr i;mii -i view. Da Vousfca Full of Viht. The provisional junta of Rio Grande do Snl telegraphed to Minister Barao de I.u- cenathat Fons?ca must resign as a prelim inary for tin arrival at a friendly under standing. Fonseca was very much of fended by tl is message, and although suf fering considerably aroused himself to give fresh end vigorous orders for the prosecution of the struggle. His physical condition is, however, against him. Til Dictator Prostrated. A dispstel from Brazil says that Mar shal da Foneca is seriously ill. It is added that his principal ailment is ex treme nervous prostration. Advices re ceived from Santos confirm the report that the port mentioned is inlecleil. with yellow fever These advices add that all the other Brazilian ports are similarly in fected.

The French war office has a perfect set cf drawings of every German fortifica tion, wit n the strength in armament of the different forts, the military roads and every feat'ire bearing upon military movements in Germany. The war office at St. Petersburg bas been forsome time anxious to get copies of theja maps, which are jeaiously guarded by the French war ministry, aud it Is believed that M. De Giers ha hai somethiui to say upon the subjact. 'A Suggestive Incident. An interesting incident occurred in the street yesterday when De Giers was being driven in the carriage of Baton de Mjhr euheim. The coachman accidentally ran down a workingaian, hurting him severe ly. The man m tde a great outcry at first and called ihe gendarmes, but when some one sail it was she carriage of the Rus sian ambassador the man smothered his pnin and, takirg off his cap, shouted : "Vive Kussie.

A Bridal Fair Who Were There to Be Harried. Ctkthiana, Ky.. Nov.v U. At the Givens-Martin marriage Wednesday night a wax taper burned low and set Ere to some decotations, making a huge blaze over the. b idal party. The audi ence was panic-ttriken at once and a grand rush for'the door was made. The bride's mother and many other ladies fainted and the minister broke through the wire windows and jumped, followed by several ladies, and there was the wild est excitement. Bride and Groom Didn't Ban. In the meanwhile the gentlemen attend ants put out the fire with their coats. At one time It looked as if the bouse would burn and the fire engine was called out, but the blaze was smothered. The- minis ter, who had retimed, and the bridal pair, who bad all this time stood as statues, proceeded as if nothing had hap pened. weaeraJ Hea Butler's Illness. Boston, Nov. 21. General B. F.

DECATUH. Ills , Nov. 21 At 6 o'clock vesterday morniug Elijah Jett cut his wife's throat with a razor and then com mitted suicide by cutting bis own throat. The trasedy Avas the bloodiest and most horrifying that ever occurred in Decatur. The couple occupied apartments in a business block and the crime was con. mitted just as the streets were filling up, and the business of the day was commenc ing. The couple wera married Oct. X. Mrs. Jet: h.ii been divorced from her husband about a year ago, and Jett had secured a divorce from his former wife on Sept. 3J. Were Eternalty Quarreling. Their married life has beeu unhappy. Sunday t.iht they quarreled and Mrs. Jett left home, but on Monday returned, aud tha couple again lived together. Thursdsy niht tbey retired and the quarrel was resumed, being kept up until morning. During its progress Jett said: "I'll kill you before morning." That be premeditated the crime is shown by the fast that be had a rszor in bed with him. At ) o'clock Mrs. Jett aroee and said to Jett that she would leave bim. Jumping up Jett grabbed her aud threw her back on the bed. A Terrible Straggle for Lire. He held her there a second and then made a fearful slash at ber throat. The terrified woman broke from his grasp and ran into the room of a neighbor, clad only in her night clothes. Jett pursuei and caught her dragging her back to their owu apartments, down the narrow bail. A terrible struggle ensued, rett slashing at the tvoniHn with bis razor and she fighting for ber life. Her hands were frightfully cut by thj razor in the effort to protect herself. Jett dragged her into the.r rooms and locked the door. Did One Creditable Deed. Mrs. Jett bhd fainted, and the fiend, be lieving tbat be had killed her, proceeded to cut bis own throat. Mr. and Mrs. Clark, the people to whom Mrs. Jett fled are both aged and were both ill. Tbey were powerless to help the woman, but succeeded in alarming the police. The cilicers kicked iu the door of Jett's room, and a chasily sight greeted them. Mrs. Jett w.is lying agaiust the door, faint from the loss of blood, but still alive Jett was in the center of the room, sit ting down aud leaning on his hands, lis died iu a few seconds. Forged a Lying Note. Mrs. Jett will ' probably recover. Two notes wero found on Jett's person signed by himself mid wife. One was a state ment signed by her Faring that she had mistreated bim and was ready to die with bim. The other note was from Jett and stated tbat his wife had been untrue and betrayed him, and that he could not live with a woman of that diameter. Mrs. Jtt denied ever having written orsigtied the note. Dlriowned by the Kuillts of Pythias. Tha common belief is that j alously was the caue of the murder. Jett w.- a teamster and was a frnstee in one of the Knights of Pythias lodges here, but tie lodge decided last night tbat he was net in good standing and will have nothing to do with bis fuueral as an organization.
