ser Almirante Lynch, of the govern
ment licet, recently collected dutv
on a cargo of nitrate at Tocopilla
which had been carried there by a
British vessel. The British minis
ter was notified cf the matter and
yesterday morning a vigorous pro
test was made toBalmaceda against
the payment of the duties.
The matter will probably be set
tled by the return of the money col
lected as was recently done in the
case of a German vessel. The Brit
ish government is showing in every
possible way without resort to arms,
that it is in sympathy with the in
surgents. This is having a decided
influence on the struggle now rag
ing. A battle is likely to occur at Co
Miiiinbo at this moment. The in-
i
surgents have surrendered the town
ami will probably begin the attack
to-dav. T'ds issue is awaited at

Belfast, N. Y, June 23. A
World correspondent saw Jack Kil-
rain to-day and had a short talk
with him alxut the event which is
just now agitating the sporting
world, namely, the prospective meet
ing between Sullivan and Slavin.
The correspondent came to Belfast
on the first train and drove about a
mile to the pretty little cottage of
William Muldoon.
Kilrain greeted the World's rep
resentative very courteously. He
is much interested in the proposed
light and talked freely on the sul
ject. When asked to express an
opinion of the merits of the two
men and what he thought of the
probable outcome of their meeting,
Kilrain said:
"Well, now, it's hard to pick the
winner. 1 don't know how to an-
swer you. lhey are both good
men."
"Have 3-0U no opinion, then,"
was asked, "as to tie' relative mer
its of the two men as lighters?"
'It's just this way." said Jake.
"Those two men would be very
evenly matched, and I would hesi
tate a good long while before put
ting my money on eithT fellow.
However, if Sullivan could get well
and go into the ring in his best con
dition, 1 rather think he would have
an advantage over Slavin."
