They all felt tho gravity atJ;i importance of the situation, "id c-L'.-e it their earnest nttention and tt'iii-iJ'Tatiou. At the close of the reading t'ltnaltuons cheer arose. In the senate the scene was similar in M respects. The crowded condition of the gallery nnd degree of attention to the reading alike were the same. In the diplo matic gallery were seated Jules Bouevofe, eliancellor, and M. Tuul Despravo, of the rench legation, and Mr. Herbert John tl,M. j! the Knglish legation. ltrltish Legation Interested. J he British legation evinced unusual in oret in the message, telephoning to the w hite ilouse yesterday morning to in quire if it, were going to congress imme diately. There was no demonstration in the senate over the message, but a general atinieut was expressed that it was rutig and courageous, w hile temperate in ' ni. hen the secretary read that portion hleh related to the dragging of one of the Baltimore's sailors through the streets w"tth a lasso. Vest moved uueasily in his eaair, and gave utterance audibly to an ex Ireviin that was interpreted to mean 'i 11 like to get hold of that policeman." VARIED COVMENT ON THE MESSAGE. llrief ExpreMlons Showing How tho statesmen Feel Abuut the Situation. Immediately after adjournment aena tors gathered in little groups to discuss the Siessage. Said Senator Sherman, chair man of the committe on foreign relations: The m.s-ge is forcible, clean and point ed. It is a matter to be thought out It wouta do manifestly improper for me to say more." Frye m ember of 1 he committee on for eign relations. The message is clear, con cise and thorough. It will commend itself to the people of the i onntry; congress will not dare do otherwise than support the president in his demands upon Chili, even if it had any inclinat on to do so. Mitehell Uepnbli .an It was a strong, able document. I sincerely hope war may be averted, but I am in favor of maintain ing the dignity of our country to the utmost. IMplnmatic S( natnr Allison. Allison It is a strong and vigorous mes sage, stating the caso after full examina tion of all the facts by the president. It appears that the de nands are just, and sooner or later will lie accorded by Chili. Piatt The United States must maintain its dignity, and mint stand for the pro tection of its sailors. I think that the sen timent of the whole country ought to sus tain the president in adhering to his ulti matum, and give hi n power to enforce it. Gray IDem.J, a nn mber of the commit tee on foreign relations, said that the forca of the message depended vcrv much upon l lie testimony w hic i accompanied it; that that would have to le weighed and fairly construed; that tl e message was one which demanded an I challenged the patri otic attention of evey senator. Morcnn IJrscrves His Opinion. Morgan, another nemher of the commit tee, expressed hims if ia somewhat similar terms, ami so did most cf the Democratic senators. The e.. tptions were Senatoi Daniel, w ho saidi '-'.'he president ought to be supported in tb j stand he has taken, and he will he,'" and tVnntor White endorsed the view-. Senator Gibson, of Maryland, saidi 4T shall suppo t the president in this. It is not a juditical matter, and I heartily approve his course, as must all Amer icans." Jones of Arkansas '-I like its tone.'' Senator Palmer, of Illinois, said he listened to reading of the message w i h very great interest;. More than that he would not say. C liili lnst Bad; Out, Says Cullom. Republican senat irs, not members of tha foreign affairs committee, were very out spoken in their cor unendat ion of the mes sage. Said Cullom: "-That's a good strom, message. There is meaning in every word. If these fellows iloi "t back out, wVll have to clean them out Hiscock It is a Aery excellent message, indeed. I have no question that the presi dent is right in the position he has taken and no doubt that the whole country will respond to hini. PaddiX'k A vigorous, temperate, well considered statenu nt. Chandler Stronj. yet courteous: will meet w ith the approbation of the Ameri can people. Casey A very thorough and a very firm statement of the situation; it commands my sympathy. Burrows It was an eloquent, temperate and dignified presi ntation of the grievance of this country, i'ersonal'.y I don't want war, but lam inclined to think that un less Chili apologises congress w ill uphold the presideut. VIEWS OF REPRESENTATIVES. Some Are More Forcible Than Polite, but "r.ver; thing Ones." Among the representatives there was more belligerence. Oates of Alabama thought the message an able and diplo matic document. "Congress," he added, "should stand by t he president in his de mands and his p tparations to break oft the relations with Chili should she persist in her present attitude. If Chilli does not apologize w e cu. ht to send enough men and vessels down there to whip h 1 out of her." The elcmei t that preferred to read more before givi igan opinion was repre sented by Holmar , who said: -The mes sage is a state paper of force and high character. So far as my opinion on tin; war question goe.-, I must si-e all sides of the question befo -e making it public." Wants Apology or AVar. Curtis Ilepubl can The message is a strong, straightforward, dignified docu ment. I think tl at reparation should be made by Chili, and though war is deplor. able we should maintain the dignity of the ynited States at any price. I am in favor of war unless Chili apologizes. Caruth A strong impressive, forcible message. It mians business aud Chili must back down. Livingston It is a manly, patriotic pa per. 1 am surprised at the extent of the outrage. If the facts bear out the mes sage, lam wit! the president. If a de mand is made f Chili I shall support it. It is a popular dxumeut with Democrats and Republicans. Tom Keed Has Nothing to Say! Keed of Maim declined to express him self. McKenna of C flifornia It is a remarka bly able presentation, and the president makes out a goo 1 case. He shows himself to tie an able ma a. O'Ferrall of V rginia The message indi cates war.but we should go slow and exam ine carefully all the evidence. Thetrouble with the evidei.ee is that those sailors of the Baltimore have made out too much. It does not seem reasonable that all of tbeui were perfectly sober and quiet in the worst part of Valparaiso. However, if the flag has been insulted I will go as far as anybody to 'brin about a retraction. Dolliver of Iiwa Its a great message, and it will be unanimously approved by congress and tl e country. It means that the American fl ig must be respected by all nations, irrespective of their size. Massachusetts and Alabama. Henry Ca)ot Lodge A most able mes sage. It is a strong presentation of the facts, and gives congress the information it ought to have. At the same time, it is a perfectly ten perate message. There is no attempt to humiliate Chili. It leaves the door wide open for Chili to do the decent and proper thing and thus end the matter. The matter ts now before con gress, and I ha' e no doubt congress will act quickly. General Wheeler, Alabama I approve of the message. The house will sustain the president. He could not have said less, and he said what he had to say in a digni li ed and proper manner. Some of the Carping Critics. There were some who could find no merit in the document, as follows: Hayes of Io .va (Deni.l delivered himself of the opinion that the message read like the brief of a country lawyer. McMUlin I did not hear all of the mes sage, but I though it remarkably strange that a defettso of what Cgan had done preceded the r resentation of the case. Belthoover t f Pennsylvania As it looks to roe, Mr. H irrison ts pluming himself for isas. Springer and Jerry Simpson. Springer The message is precipitate, and should not have been presented now. The presideut hastened its sending to con gress when he knew an apology was com ing, in ordu- to make political capital out Ol it. Jerry Simeon It reminds me of the brief of a pettifogging lawyer. The quota tion Ironi the testimony in the Shield case is a bid to take the wind of the Irish vote out of Blaine's sails. Geary of California, a member of the foreign affairs committee Although I am of Irish descent there is too much Irish in the message for me too much Pat Egnn and Sisters of Charity and Pat Shields. It looks tme like a disgusting attempt to further parttsnu ends in connection with the Irish vote under guise of patri otic motives. Breckinridge of Kentuckr I think, first, that the president has made out a good ase, but it was that of a lawyer, and not as I expected, the petition of a statesman. Vt hat Bynum Thinks Abont It. Bytium We are in honor bound to maintain the dignity of this country. "We tan accept nothing less than that which the president has already demanded. The antipathy of the Chilians to us was pro voked by Kgan and the policy which our adiniiusuation adopted iu its "treatment of the. congressional party. To that extent the administration must bear the responsi bility for the present complications. But the situation is now such that if Chili re fuses reparation it is with r.s very plainly a case of 54 40 or light. Otis of Kansas Alliance I heartily ap prove the sentiment expressed by the presi dent. Chili should make the reparation demanded, and if she isn't willing to do it she should be made to do so by force. 1 am in favor of protecting the dignity of the American flag iu every part of the world. Illinois Statesmen's Views. Durborow p)crn. It is a strong mes sage and has evidently produced a marked effect iu the house, but ve must suspend judgment until we learn all the facts. Newberry l)em. If an offense of this nature had been given us by Eugland, Prance, Germany or some other of the great powers of the earth, there would be no difference of sentiment in this country. But to make war upon these people in their present condition, and considering the dis parity in size between the two countries, would be outrageous. Hitt Hep. The president has written a forcible and adroit message. The manner in w hich he makes it apparent that the at tack was upon our uniform and not upon the men wearing it is a skillful aud effec tive piece of work. TEXT Or THE "ULTIMATUM." I'nde Sam's fuse Against Chill iu Com paratively Small Space. Washington, Jan. 2C The text of the note to Minister Kgan of Jan. 21, in which Secretary Blaine transmits the ultimatum of this government to the Chilian authori ties, is as follows: 'T am directed by Cte president to say to you that he has given careful attention to all that has been submitted by the govern ment of Chili touchiug the alTair of the as sault upon the crew of the United States steamer Baltimore in the city of Valparaiso on the evening of the loth of October last and to the evidence of the officers and crew of that vessel aud of soma others who witnessed the affray, and that his conclu sions upon the w hole case are as follows: '1. That the assault is not relieved of the aspect which the early information of the event gave to it, viz.: That of an attack upon the uniform of the United States navy, having its origin and motive in a feeling of hostility to this government and not iu any act of the sailors or of any of them. The Case Where It was Oct. 23. "2. That the public authorities at Valpa raiso flagrantly failed in their duty to pro tect our men, and that some of the police and of the Chilian soldiers and sailors were themselves guilty of unprovoked assault upon our sailors before and after arrest. He thinks the preponderance of the evi dence and the inherent probabilities lead to the conclusion that Biggin was killed by the police or soldiers. SI. That he is therefore compelled to bring the case back to the position taken by this government in the note of Mr. Wharton of Oct. 23 last (a copy of which you will deliver with this) and to ask for a suitable apology and for some adequate reparation for the injury done to this gov ernment. Wooid Do as Would Ite Done By. "Yon will assure the government of Chili that the presideut has no disposition to be exacting or to ask anything which this government would not, under the same circumstances, freely concede. He regrets that from the beginning the gravity of the questions involved has not apparently been appreciated by the government of Chili, and that au affair iu which two American seamen were killed and sixteen ot hers were seriously wounded, while only one Chilian was seriously hurt, should not be distin guished from an ordinary brawl between tailors in which the provocation is wholly personal and the participation limited. A Matter of Sell-Kespect. "Xo self-respecting government can enn fent that persons in its service, whether civil or military, shall be beaten and killed iu a foreign territory in resentment of acts done by or imputed to their government without exacting a suitable reparation. The government of the United States has freely recogu'zed this principle and acted upon it when the injury was done by its people to one holding an official relation to a friendly power iu resentment of actsdone by the latter. In such case the United States has not sought for words of the smallest value or equivocal meaning in which to convey its ajiology, but has con demned such acts in vigorous terms and has not refused to make other adequate reparation. That Offensive Matt Note. "But it is not my purpose here to discuss the incidents of this affair, but only to state the conclusions which this govern ment has reached. We have given every opportunity to the government of Chili to present any explanatory or mitigating facts and have had due regard to the fact that the government of Chili was for a considerable part of the time that has elapsed since Oct. 16 upon a provisional basis. I am further directed by the presi dent to state that his attention has been called to the note of instructions sent by Mr. Matta, secretary of foreign affairs, to you, under date of the 11th ulU Mr. Montt very prudently, and, I must suppose, from a just sense of the offensive nature of the dispatch, refrained from communicating it efhcially to this government. Obnoxious in m High Degree. "But in view of the fact that Mr. Montt wa3 directed to give it to the press of this country, and that it was given the widest possible publicity throughout the world, this government must take notice of it. You are, therefore, directed to say to the Chilian government that the expression therein imputing untruth and insincerity to the president and the secretary of the navy in their oSicial communications to the congressof the United States are i n the bigX-yi degree offensive to this govern ment. Some Diplomatic Irony. uBecogiiii.iug the usual rules of diplo mat ic intercom s and of the respect and courtesy which should characterize inter national relations (which he cannot assume are wholly unfamiliar to the Chilian for eign office), the president was disposed to regard the dispatches referred to as indi cating a purpose to bring about a suspen sion of diplomatic relations; but in view of the fact that Mr. Matta was acting ; ro visionally and that a reorganization of the Chilian cabinet w as alxiut to take place, and afterwa-id in further view of the expec tation that was held out of a withdrawal and of a suitable apology, notice of this grave offense has been delayed. jmoJ Very I'lain "United Stales." "I am now, however, directed by the pres ident to say that if theolTensive parts of the dispatch of the 11th of December are not at once withdrawn and a suitable apology offered, with the same publicity that was given to the offensive expressions, he will have no other course open to him except to terminate diplomatic relations with the government of Chili. No; Can't Do It Just Yet, Mr. Chiii. '"Mr. Montt, in a note of Jan. 2t, has ad vised me that he has been directed by his government to inform the government of the United States that you are not persona grata to the government of Chili and to request your recall. This has been laid before the president and he directs you to say that, in view of the foregoing, he does not deem it necessary to make any present response thereto. It will be quite time to consider this suggestion after a reply to this note is received, as we shall kiic. whether any correspondence can be main tained with the government of Chili upon terms of mutual respect. 'You will furnish to the minister of for eign affairs a full copy of this note." A Kesponse irom Santiago. A telegram from Kgan was received Jin. 23, acknowledging receipt of above, ai: 1 also in refutation of the Chilian statement that he is persona nou grata, stating that at a diplomatic banquet at the home of the minister of foreign affairs ou the 1-th inst. Prime Minister Luco told him, w ith the approbation of some of his colleagues and in thn presence of the Knglish minister and the Spanish minister, that the present cab inet entertained the most cordial ' feelings for the United States and for himself per sonally. President Montt Out of Town. Another dispatch was received from Kgan yesterday stating that President Montt was out of town, and asking on be half of Senor IVriera, foreign minister, for time until the president could be commun icated wit ii.

Tho un says ed itorially in relation to Ibe President's mes sage Uam the Chilian question: "Four things are certain: "1. We are rijjht, we know that we are right, and the national sentiment is behind the administration. "2. The ideaof arbitration is not to be tol erated. The matters presented in Mr. Blaine's note of Jan. 21 and recited in the president's message to congress yesterday are not within the jurisdiction of any power or any council on the face of this earth. St Minister Kgau cannot and wili not le recalled in response to the tartly request lrom Santiago until our linal demand upon Chili has been met squarely by that gov ernment, '"4. The answer to the quest ion of war or peace is with Chili not with us." Commends the Message. ClliCAi-o, Jan. 2ii. The Herald (l)em.) says: "The document in which the presi dent transfers future responsibility in this already aggravatingly long drawn out trouble from his own shoulders to those of our senators and representatives, is a clear and pointed recital of wrongs nnd insults on the part of Chili and of patience and forbearance on the part of the United States. The message will lie generally ap proved. The Democratic majority iu the lower house of congress should endeavor to deal with this question as creditably as the president has done. Tne Inter Ocean and Tribune both speak highly of the message. The Times criti cizes it and deprecates war. The St. l.ouis I'apcrs. ST. Lor is. Jan. 2t5. The Hepublic ( Dem ocrat) says: -Considered in connection even w ith such of t 'ue correspondence as he has given out it is the most ridieulottsdocument that an American president ever sent to congress. It reads as though it had lieen written by Pat Kgan himself while slowly recovering from the itTectsof a 'lighting drunk.'"" The Post-Dispatch (Independent Demo crat) says: "The conclusive proof of the un litness of Kgan and the folly of the presi dent may le found in the Chilian corre spondence which was expected to fire the American heart w ith an intense desire for war w ith poor little Chiii. Wattersou's Comments. Lorivn.LE, Jan. 2n The Courier-Journal says of tiie president's message, that it is inconclusive; that the resources of diplomacy have uot been exhausted; that Chili has already made some amends in "regretting" the Valparasio riot, in promis ing to punish the guilty, aud in permitting; the refugees to leave. "The whole question now goes to congress, where it should re ceive the most careful consideration. It is too serious a matter to 1? decided under the impulse of undue exeitemeut." Thinks there niil He no War. Boston, Jan. 2tj. The Traveller, com menting on the Chilian situation, says it is safe to say there will be no war. The Transcript considers the Matta note, which contained reflections on the presi dent of the United States, an episode much more difficult of settlement than the Balti more incident.
