DFFtCfA. SOr1CE-EMPEOYMENT OF ITALIAN
CHILDREN IN TAGRANT PROFESSIONS.
A royal decree, under the date of twenty.
first Of December last, has definitely pro-
mulgated in Italy the law proposed since
1869. discussed and approved last spring by
the Italian Chamber of Deputies, and lately
BIZ the Senate, by which all employment of
children and adOlescents of both sexes,
under the age Of eighteen years, in any va
grant profession, and, above all, as street
musicians, is absolutely forbidden and Sc
verely punished.
The Undersigned, while intending to re-
turn more fully to this argument as soon as
he has received the necessary Instructions
from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in
Rome deems it proper to inform, without
any further delay, all the hirers, trans
ferees, relatives, guardians, parents and
holders in general of Italian children and
adolescents of both sexes employed in the
above professions, who may now reside in
America, that according to the aforesaid
law they are from this day obliged to sub
NIT to the following provisions:
/. To report Immediately, either in person
or by letter, to this consulate, or to the
nearest consular agency of Italy in the
United States, the number, christian and
family names, ages, native districts, to.
gether with the names Of father and mother
of the Italian children and adOlescents of
| both sexes, now or until lately employed as
street musicians. or in any other vagrant
profession, intrusted to them by the parents,
or in any manner held by them, even if those
children are their own offspring, relatives
or wards They must, moreover. inform
! the consular officers of their own name and
native districts.
/ 2. To send back to italy, at their own OK
| pense, all the aforesaid children, none ex-
| cepted in period of time not longer than
four months from this day. viz: before the
| fifteenth of May next.
! The law does not admit OF any exception.
| Those among the padroni, parents, etc., who
J vigorously comply with the foregoing pro-
visions will be exempt from any penalty:
| those, on the contrary, who do not comply,
| will be mercilessly subjected in Italy to the
! severe puuiehments decreed by the law, and
varying from six months to seven years
I imprisonment, according to the case, TO-
| gether with heavy pecuniary fines. And 1t
! their extradition is granted. they will be
seized in America itself and sent to Italy
! under arrest.
! All the contracts now existing between
| the padrOni or their agents and the parents,
! relatives or guardians OF the aforesaid
| children, are from to day null and void, and
| will no longer have any legal value in
| courts of justice.
The undersigned most earnestly requests
all the federal, State and municipal author
| tiles of this State to lend him their assist
ance for the purpose OF inducing and, II
