Furthermore -the ultimatum demands that Chili immediately make reparation for the attack by the mob upon the Baltimore's sailors In Valpa raiso and that she make aa apology for thoss attacks. The ultimatum concludes with the statement that the United States will tolerate no further delay on the part of Chili ii answering tne demands 01 the American Govern ment. Washington, Jan.

There was argued at chambers last month, before Judge Connor, a case of peculiar interest. The Wilming ton and Weldon railroad claims.uuder its original charier, entird exemption of tax, both of the main line ar.d branches.

The Railway ponimission did not believe the taxi could be se-secured on the main libe, but held that the branches were liable. The Judgo has announced his decision, which is that the branches are liable to the tax assessed. The value of the branches approximates $2,000,000, on which the State and county taxes will be about $20,000. Of course the railway company will appeal and will carry the case to the Supreme Court of the United States. The Bail way Commissioners feel secure in their position as to the liability.
