the Italian minister, to-day received the
first reports from the Italian consul at New

Italians there last Saturday. These re-
ports, it is said, sustained the position taken
by Baron Fava in his protest to Secretary

action of the authorities of New Orleans
before and during the shooting. In
transmitting a copy of the reports
to Secretary Blaine, Baron Fava repeated
that the conduct of the local authorities at
New Orleans was in the highest degree
blamable, for the reason that it was not in
keeping with their duties to protect the life
of Italian subjects according to the terms
OF the treaties existing between the two
countries, as had been called to the atUen-
tion of the governor by Secretary Blaine
with an unquestionable spirit of justice,
to which Baron Fava said he bore cheerful
witness.
