BITTER FEELING.

The Italian Government Asked to Place a
Man-ofWar in this Mississippi.
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 18.-The excitement
over the Italian, or rather anti-Italian issue.
growing out of the assassination of Chief Of
Police Hennesy, is becoming intensified.
Charges of cruelty to prisoners are pub
lished and interviews with Italians to sub
stantiate them. Mayor Shakespeare has
published a reply to Pasquale Corte. the
Italian Consul, ON a recent criticism, in
which the Mayor shows that nine of the
men charged with the murder OF Hennesy
have been American citizens for two years
or more. Public sentiment here condemns
the Consu's action as unwarranted inter-
ference and as likely to cause trouble. The
principal feature of the ConsuPs course was
the writing of letter to the Grand Jury
now sitting on the HeDnesy case, charging
brutality on the part Of the prison officials
toward the suspected men. A sensation was
created last night when an Italian Catholic
priest, who is also editor of an Italian news
paper, issued call on the Italian Govern
ment to place an Italian man-Of-war In the
Mississippi River for the pro lection of the
Italian residents of New Orleans. The call
says: "An ironclad in the Mississippi weuld
not under present circumstances be fruit out
of season, and we have reason to believe our
opinion is shared by the entire Italian col
Ony."
The anti-Italian feeling has become much
stronger the last few days. There is pros
pect Ct the miscarriage of justice; that the
assassination of Chief Hennessy will go I'M
punished The evidence before the Grand
jury against the men charged with the MUIR
der is weak and insufficient. Some of the
witnesses have been threatened and others
induced to leave the city. This has caused
a very bitter feeling, and the remark is fire.
quently heard from very conservative peo-
pie that the only way to avenge the murder
is for mob to 60 TO the Parish Prison, take
out the Italian prisoners and lynch them.
Threats Of this kind are becoming worry fire.
quent.
Sgnor C0rte, the Italian Consul, has cabled
the matter in full to the Italian Government
and asked for instructions.

arose and gave them cordial greeting. The
mother of the babe, alter replying to the
salutation, said to Mr.. Brooks: 81 have a
favor to ask OF you, and, although II may
seem queer one, and you stranger, ! hope
you will grant 1t. I'm sure if you do it will
be of great benefit to my child"

Piled Joe. Ii it is anything reasonable l

" that if n colored person Will kiss baby

When this was done the mother took the
child and both ladies left the shop, ap-
parently perfectly satisfied the operation
would give the infant relief from that pain
incidental to teething. They seemed to be

firmly believed that caresses from colored

squabble Over the Location of the Worlds
Fair Building.
CHICAGO, Nov 18.-The National Worlds
Fair Commission assembled again this after
noon. The report of the Committee on
Classification completed was laid before it.
The site matter soon came to the front, Mr.
Mercer of Wyoming Offering resolution to
the effect that only the fine arts building be
allowed on Lake Front. Under resolution
previously adopted, evidently having in
view the prevention of trouble. this resolu-
ton went to the Committee on Buildings.
Commissioner de Young of California then
got up, however, and offered a preamble
double site was not agreeable to the
judgment and business sense of the world :;
that the commission had been imposed up-
on by Misrepresentation on the part of the
Chicago local directory in regard to the use
of the lake frost, etc., and while it has
temporarily rescinded its action the COM
mission feels that it may be imposed upon
again; therefore the action of the commits
sion in accepting the various sites rendered
it be reScinded, and the Board of Directors
requested to Immediately furnish the CON-
mission with site where the exposition
can be held as one exhibit. This started
quite sQuabble, De Young refusing to let
the resolution be shelved in the committee.
Finally it was ordered printed for consider
alton tomorrow. Hopes are expressed
among the Commissioners that the site
matter may be settled without further
trouble.
The South Park Board has declined to re-
move all restrictions from the use of Wash
ing Park, and this evening the local directory
reaffimed its adherence to the plan of put
ting the main buildings on jackson Park
and the lake front.

AGAIN IN FASHION.
oller.Skating Revived in the
Mechanics Pavilion.

Roller-skating has been brought back to
the position it justly held some years ago in
this city by the introduction of this popular
pastime at the Mechanics Pavilion on a
scale of grandeur never before attempted
here.
Indeed. it has taken decided boom, which
v0taries OF the rink consider most remark
able; and 1t has also assumed q new aspect
it is fashionable, and this in more ways
than one. Society is beginning to court the
spacious floor, or take seats and gaze upun
the moving scene of grace and enjoyment on
wheels. The courteous attention Of attend
ants, the etiquette observed and the extern
sive accommodation for ladies arc undoubt-
eddy what attract the best people Of San
Francisco to the Pavilion day and night.3
A club Of forty picked expert skaters in
blue plush costumes and white hats float
around the floor and acquit themselves gal
lantly toward ladies and beginners. Even
some champion skaters, who own the Olym-
plan Rink, are always on the floor to assist
the ladies.
1t was a gay spectacle last night when the
large building was brilliantly lighted and
fully 20C0 persons, mostly young ladies and
gentlemen, went Swimming along at a dizzy
pace. The band, suspended by iron rods
above their heads, discoursed sweet music
at intervals. They were the same must
clans that play Sundays in the park, and
are led by Mr.. Bree and Joe Matheson each
alternative night.
On all sides the dazzling splendor of JAP
anese decorations, with their warm color
ing and fantastic and grotesque shapes, met
the eye and removed that bare and uninyit-
ing appearance associated with the Pavilion
Interior. These things combined have made
the rink enterprise complete success.
The foor-60,C00 square feet of its said
to be the nearest approach to ice that man
can get in wood. 1t is constructed of pol
ished rock maple as smooth as glass.
"ThiS Is a DREAM" said young lady, as
she glided aim in arm with handsome
cavalier around the floor. The skates are
different from the old kind we had long ago,
and never vas such rink seen here before.
l can't imagine that these are rollers"
Now that the rink is pronounced sue
cess and the management feels rewarded for
its investment in the enterprise it will he
open for five or six months. The managers
are conducting it with as much regard to
etiquette aud the proprietieS as if it were
select ball. Last Saturday, for instance.
they refused skates to at least 100 persons
who were not desirable. The nightly at
tendance averages 1000. In The antipcdeS
the same company revived roller-Sdating
and had a very successful run of two years,
endir G in October, 1883.
Their new skates induce people to return
TO the rink after trying them on once, and
one kind is said to be swifter than the
bicycle. A race was spoken of last night
between the champion skater aud Morgan,

.VACAvILLE, Nov. 1S.-Mrs. c. Martel to-
day made the first shipment of oranges for
this season from her ranch in the Vaca Val
ley. They were Of the navel and Mediterra-
mean sweet varieties and were remarkable
for their size. This shipment is about
eighteen days later than last year. The last
carload of green fruit will leave here in q
few days for Eastern points.
According to the Enterprise, October, al
though almost the last month of the fruit
season, held its own as compared with pre-
vious months in the earlier part of the sea-
son: One hundred and thirteen cars of green
fruit and twenty-five carloads of dried fruit,
sggregaring a total tonnage of 3,115 $50
pounds, were shipped TO Eastern points,
while two carloads of dried fruit, weighing
1859 pounds, were shipped one each to Sac
ramento and San Francisco. In assorted
CARLOAD lots to local points there were
shipped 100 AS pounds Of green and dried
fruit. The net returns so far received from
the sale OF this years fruit. as appears from
