Orleans. He adds that it would
have been absurd to claim punishment for
the offenders without the guarantees af-
forded by a regular trial. The diplomatic
incident, Premier Rudini says, can only be
considered closed when the federal govern
ment has declared IN precise terms that the
prosecutions will be commenced. In the
meantime the Italian government takes
cognizance of the federal governments dec>

ITALY WON'T MAKE WAR.
PARIS, April 2-The councillor of the
Italian embassy here, Signor Ressmon, In
an interview to-day with the Associated
Press correspondent in regard to the recall
of Baron Fava. says: "If Secretary
Blaine has hedged himself in with
a plea of non possumus and
has refused to satisfy italys demands,
Baron Fava will receive an Unlimited leave
of absence and nothing further will
transpire. That is the extreme limit Of
action to which European government
can have recourse when it desires to show
that it is dissatisfied with the United States.
Italy will not make war;"
WHAT THE AMBASSADOR SAYS.
Count Menabres, the Italian ambassador
here, in an interview to-day referring to
the Fava imbroglio, said: From the dis
pute arose a quarrel such as is possible in
any country subject to immigration. The
quarrel has degenerated into a conflict
which will become more and more accent

US on this side very serious, be-
cause the political perspective mag
nifies things, the further distant
they are. To appreciate the real Importance
of any event we must consider its imme-
date surroundings, and this event occurred
in America. The Italian and American
governments do not desire to quarrel or
open fire on each other on account Of the
lynching. The unfortunate part Of the
affair is that loss of life occurred but an
understanding will be come to for in-
demnity, as in the case OF all private affairs,
for this is private and not national mat
ter. Remember that"

Signor Bonacia, president of the Italian
Chamber of Commerce in this city, said
that he regarded Baron Fava's action as
somewhat precipitate. 1t was a mere

ing" Signor Bonacia added: There
is not much sympathy among the
Italians in London with the men lynched in
| New Orleans. The Italians here are Of the
opinion that there is no doubt that the men
charged with the murder of Chief Hem
messy were guilty. Still. they say, if the
| lynchers go unpunished respectable Italiaus
in the United States are not safe The
United States government is blam-
able for failing to protect the jury
which tried the men who were slain from
