Was Not the Man % 0rappls With che
eitaation-faeiae Teas 81 the Italian
Newspapers-very Little Talk Of War.
Vice. Consul Gsrolamo Nasslli said yesterday
that communications had passed between
Baron Fava and the Consulate. but he refused
to make them public.
The situation" he said. "is Interesting, but
there ID nothing In II at the moment to oc-
caslon fears OF any great international diff-
Guilty. To bs surs. international situations
vary from moment TO moment. and would not
pretend to prophesy. but Just now Am not at
all apprshensivs. II 10 not true that Baron
Fava Is recalled In the sense that recalling
means practical declaration Of war.
II he were then the legation would 10 closed
at once, whereas It IL open and In charge OF
another. Our once here would b closed. but
you 500 We are open. Diplomatic relations
continue between Italy and the United States.
and will continue ss long as tho legation re-
mains open at Washington. Baron Fava's de.
mand for his passport 10 made. not as though
1t closed the legation but % though he were
going to leave the country upon leave OF alb
sencs. The simple recall Of Minister may be
made for many ressona I don't pretend to
say why Baron Fava was recalled don't
know why. may have my opinion. but 1t is
only an opinion. The consulate has no knowl-
sdge whatever upon the subject"
1T is not. then. your opinion that Italy has
recalled Baron Fava with the purpose Of
bringing this country to terms p
Italy" said Mr.. Nasclii., us desirous OF
maintaining friendly relations with the United
States. This action does not mean war. What
may develop I cannot say. but there are inany.
many steps between ihe recalling OF Minister
without closing the legation and war"
What docs Italy wautt"
Italy wants protection for hor citizens In
America. That is ALL 1t 10 not at ell probable
that she viii demand any Indemnity. A nation
does that only when its flag 10 insulted. There
was no insult to the italian flag In the New
Orleans outrage. Tho only demand that will
be made. II things 20 no further than at pres
ent will be the punishment Of the murderers
and suitable indemnity to the families Of
those murdered"
Mr.. Nsselli said he know nothing Of Baron
