Mr.. Biaine's Cablegram to Mr.. Porter.
The following despatch was sent to Minister
Porter by Secretary Blaine;
"Dpartmem Of State, Washington, May 4,
lS9i.--PoTter American Minister, Rome: A
series Of statements addressed to the Marquis
Inperiai by the Marquis Rudini was tele-
graphed from Rome yesterday and was pub.
lished by the Associated Press Of the United
states today. The only part Of the Marquis
Rudini's communication which this govern
ment desires 10 notice is the one here quoted,
namely i have now before me note id
dressed TO you by Secretary Blaine April IA.
Its perusal produces a most painful impression
upon me. | will not stop 10 lay stress upon
the lack Of conformity WITH diplomatic usages
displayed in making use, as Mr., Blaine did
not hesitate 10 do, of portion Of a telegram Of
mine communicated 20 him in strict confidence
in order TO get rid ola question clearly defined
in our eitcial documents, which alone possess
q diplomatic value
'The telegram Of March o. concerning
whose public use the Marquis III Rupini com.
plains, is the following, which was quoted in
full in my note of April "A to Marquis lmper-
iali, charge Of Italy at this capital. Our re-
quests TO the federal government are very
simple. Some Italian subjects acquitted by
the American magistrates have been murdered
in prison while under the immediate pr0tec.

10 demand and obtain the punishment Of the
murdercrs, md an indemnity for the victims
is unquestionabe ! wish to add that the pub.
lie opinion III Italy is justly impatient, and If
concrete provisions were not at once taken I
should find myself in the painful necessity Of
showing openly our dissatisfaction by recalling
the minister Of his Majesty from a country
where be is unable to obtain justice. tSigned)
Rudini.'
THE intimation Of the Marquis Rudni that
the telegram in question WAS delivered in
strict confidence Is total error. AS the tele-
gram expressed the demand Of the Italian
government, IL was impossible that Marquis
Rudini could transmit Il in strict confidence.
As have already stated, IT was communicated
10 me in person by Baron Favs, written in
English IN his own handwriting, without a
suggestion Of privacy, and the telegram itself
has not a single mark upon it denotiug a con-
fdential character. ! have caused number
ofeopies Of the telegram 70 be forwarded 70 you
today IN fac-simile. The usual mark for italic
printing was used by me under four lines and
they appear In the copies You will use the
fae-similes in such manner as will most eifec-
tually prove the error into which the Marquis
Rudiui has fallen. BIAISRp

TO either person or property beyond the one
act which seemed to have boon the object Of
the assemblage at the parish prison. We have
referred to the large number of citizens par
ticipating in this demonstration, estimated by
judges at from 5000 to 5000, regarded as a
spontaneous uprising of the people The
magnitude of this affair makes it difficult
task to fix the guilt upon any number Of par
tieipants-in fact, the act seemed to involve
the entire people of the parish and city of New
Orleans, so profuse is their sympathy and ex-
tended their connection with the affair.
In view of these considerations the thor
ough examination of the subject has failed TO
disclose the necessary facts to Justify this grand
jury in presenting indictments.

have done so but for outside interference
