Chili and Pern.
Chill has1 givenj thle Coup de grace to
Peru in the recent capture of Lima and
Calino, and peace may be expected at
any limo. Tile war which has beenl
Waged without Intermission Since the
early part of 1879, has been marked by
anll almost uninterruptedseries of vicet
tories for the Chflian arms. Dispute
originally arose between Chill and
Bolivia concerning the disputed terri.
tory known as thie Desert of Atacama.
This territory has recently developed
ulnexpected resollroes in nitrates and
minerals, and its exports are of great
value. Several years ago the two
nationas agreed to share the profits
joinitly, although most of the wealth
lay in Bolivian Territory. A tax of
tell per cent. on exports levied by
Bolivia was the pretext for war, and
before she knew It Chill had occupied
the port of Autofogasta, and sent her
an insulting alternative. Bolivia pre
pared for war, and President Daza
marched fron La Paz with great poanp
and circumstance, and swor'e he would
drive tle Chilians out of Atacama
headlong or perish in theatteipt. The
Chilians chased hill out of Atacama
and revolutionists at home chased him
out of Bolivia. In the mcan time
Peru offered to mediate, but Chili
threw iaato her teeth a secret treaty'
made several years ago betweeni Perna
and Bolivia7 and declared war agalinst
and bomnbardinag several of her ports.
President, Prado prepared for war', but
was unasuccessibul in several batt les,
iand found( that lae had prlessing~ busi
ness enigagem'aents in New York, ian
wvhich city he now resides, feeling it
to be much safer thman Limna. G.eneral
Pierola assumied the diictatorship ot'
Peru andt organized a vig~or'ous resist
iance, but the Ch~lilians were too amuch
for himi and steadily advan~cedl, taiking
towna after' ton in detail. Th'le last
stanld was made at Choarillos, a suburb
ofLima, but agaian the l'eruv'ianas were
-disastrously detieated, with a loss of'
seven thousanad anen, aand the Chilian
army miarched iat~o Liuma without re
sistanace. Piero)la, folloiwinag the ex
amlel of his p~redecessor, has flied to

of P'er'u lie on the eastern sidle of' the

Proposed Ship Railroad Beitween to Two
Oceans.
From the San Franiesco Call.
Captain Janies B. Ends has come to
the front again with his prolect of a
ship rallivay across Tclalitepec. The
concession ho has obtained from the
Mexican governient places his pro
ject in a lin with tie other inter
occanic routes, so far as rIht of way
is conceiied. Mexico, lRe Panama
11(I Nicaragua, desire8 to have the
roi(te froii oceia to ocean establ)ishied
across her territory. Tehutantepec is
about sixteen degrees north of the
equator, and about eight degrees
north of Pittania. Nicaraigua lies be
tweei, but, nearer TehuantepctI than
to Panaina. One great point of ad
vantage in favor of Tehiiantepec is (lie
fAt (lint its westerii terminius is ill the
Gultf of Mexico. The sume body of
water whicho will reCeive the freihIit
transported ov1er1 the 8)t11 iierii Pacific
Railroad iIll also receive the ships
carried acros tlie Tchaintepec. routie.
'Tle railroad colnects with the nort h
lrlit extrelility of tie "' 1I, anid tle shi )
railway vith the su I. Tihe acl
vantage of' this coni r. caso of
war would be grea. would be
itich easier to close ti. .i1 of Mex
ico to hostile fleets than to protect Ves
sels crossing from Painuma into the
waters of the Caribbean Sea. Captainl
Eads' mnelod is now, but nto doubts
are eut ert ai tied among experienced enl
giueers of its entire practicability.
Ships n1ay be transported in stays, to
pr(vent strainin1g, or they may be
raised in a bed of w ater and trans
ported across in that elemient, literally
mingling the Waters of one oceani1 with
those of aiother oil each trip. Cap
aii. Ends offers to demonistrate the
eitre practicability of his inethod at
has OWII eXpenIse. The feature of his
propisition to which objetion iimay be
ir"ed is that which looks to a govern
inent guarantee of interest, oil $50,
(00,000 of bonds. What lie asks of
tie govermenlli t is 1much less t.an was
given the first Pacitic llalroa1d, but
the governemient's policy has sin1ce
been -soniewhat chianged. IRailroads
tire iow built withoit Itny sneh guar
antee, or not built at all. Even Col
oneh Scott, with his trained lobbyists,
(idl not sneceed in ret tilg a bill
through,garantecing tlie bonds of his
Pacif ic road; bt., while lie has been
trying, t(e Southern 'acific has been
cotpleted overi nearly the stne route,
without other aid from goverinnent
than tlie right. of way. It is possib)e,
however, that means will be found
which will prove such a guarantee to
capitalists as to indie theni to fur
nish tie incans for the construction of
Captain Eads' proposed ship railroad.
-1 lere is a very striking example of
how Ireland could be made pealeful.
Sir Cavendish Foster is one of t1e few
1rish landlords who have no trouble
with tile tenants. le is a clergymian
ill Essex anid owns lands in County
Louth. Ireland. Not lg ago lie iii
structed his aigeit to reduce rents
twenity per cent., but Ills tenants re
)1ied w ith a u nilious refusal to ac
cept tle reduction. They (lid not
wish for inore consideritiOi--they
asked 1or. none at all. Being able, the'
were wilungw to pay their just rent in
full. They told thle agenClt to informti

Th'le result, of a gentle use of thle land
