EUROPEAN SYMPATHY is WITH ITALY.
-x.earRArED IMPORTANCE. HE SAYS. OUGHT
NOT TO BE GIVEN TO THE NEw-oRLEkNs
AFFAIR-wHY CONSUL CORTE
WAS RECALLED


poue Nav l4.-Ihe Marquis di Rudini, in the
casmber of Deputies to-day, said that exaggerated
,r,nortance ought not TO be given to the New
o,issns affair, nor should o question essentially
,rd,cal be converted into of national dignity.
IT, recall of Baron Fava was protest against
.hs conduct of the United States Government in
asclarjng itself irresponsible In the matter. The
ousstion seemed to be entering a new phase.
sJudicial proceedings had been begun against the
,vnchers" continued the Premier, but cannot
sav TO what extent the proceedings are serious
nevertheless, l am certain that Europe approves
our action Our Consul at New-Orleans has been
,.,alled. partly because the Government wishes TO
bsaiu the fullest information in regard to the mat
A., and partly because we fear that some of the
communications which the Consul published or
.emitted TO be published were inopportune."
Replying TO a question relating to the New
Orleans Grand Jury and Signor Corte, the Italian
Consul at New-Orleans, Premier di Rudini added
that he had learned through the newspapers Of
the incident regarding the Consul II the news
were true, the matter would Of itself suffice TO
urcve the necessity of the recall of Consul Corte.
Signor Quintieri, after acknowledging what he
termed the strict legality of Premier di Rudini's
action. in the dispute with the United States, and
the moderate character of his demands, asked
Grand jury it would not be more dignified to
renounce the matter, and leave the responsibility
for the lynchings ON those tolerating them.
Signor Cavaletto expressed his regret at the rup-
ture in the relations between the United States
and Italy. He thought that little should be said
about the affair. as it was an exceedingly delicate
matter He begged Premier di Rudini to use every
endeavor TO bring about settlement of the dis
pute. which. he said. ought not to be allowed to
inger.
The discussion was then adjourned.

Washington, May 14.-It is said at the State
Department that there has been no suggestion Of
an arbitration of the difficulties between Italy and
the United States growing out of the New-OrleanS
tragedy as was reported in special dispatch from
Rome Arbitration is the last resort after diplo-
macy has failed and as Secretary Blaine has prom
ised 10 consider the claims for indemnity, 1t can
not be held that the diplomatic stage has been
passed. The rather indlscreet utteranceS OF the
Italian Consul at New.Oreans, relative TO the con-
spiracy TO kill the Mayor and other prominent
persons, causes some amusement at the Depart,
ment but as they have not taken an official shape
no notice will be taken of them by this Govern
