Chilian News.
Chilian ladies are selling their jewellry in order to raise money with which to purchase arms for the insurgents. The United States cruiser Charleston has arrived at the Peruvian port of Callao. Her officers report they have failed to find any trace of the rebel steamer Itata. It is believed that the Mexican authorities were frightened by the presence of the Chilian warship Esmeralda in the port of Acapulco, and thus permitted her to coal. The insurgents threaten to bombard Valparaiso, but it is expected the United States, Great Britain, and other powers will step in to prevent it. The United States Government has abandoned the chase of the steamer Itata. It is reported that the Chilian rebel steamer Itata, after which the United States cruiser had a fruitless chase is making the voyage to Melbourne.
