a ARKAHLE TREATY.


WAsHINaToN. D.. c., April e.
The treaty with Italy to which Ba-
ron Faya alludes In his letter to
Secretary Blaine, was negotiated a,
Florence in 1871. 1t is quite a
lengthy document and contains the
following interesting paragraph:
Art,2 Ifby any fatality which
can't be expected and which may
Gdd avert, the two contracting
parties should be engaged in war
with each other, they have agreed
and do agree, now for then, that
there shall be allowed the term OF
six months to the merchants of the
coast and the ports of each other,
and the term of one year to those
who dwell in the interior TO ar
range their business and transport
their effects wherever they please
with the safe conduct necessary to
protect them and their property,
until they arrive at the ports des.
ignated for their embarkation. And
all women and children, scholars
Of every faculty, cultivatora of the
earth, artisans, mechanics, manu.
facturers and fishermen, unarmed
and inhabiting the unfortitied
towns, villages, or places, and in
general all others whose occupa-
tions are for the common subsis-
tence and benefit of mankind, shall
be allowed to continue at their re-
spective employments and shalt
not be moleeted in their persons
nor shall their house or goods be
burnt or otherwise destroyed nor
their fields wasted by the armed
force of the belligerent in whose
power by the events of war they
may happen to fall; but If it be
necessary that anything should be
taken from them for the use of such
beliigerant the same shall be paid
for at a reasonable price. And it is
declared that neither the pretense
that war dissolves treaties nor any
other whatever shall be considered
as annulling or suspendlng this ar
tlcle; but on the contrary that the
state of war is precisely that for
which it is provided, and during
which its provisions are to be sa-
credly observed as the most ac-
.knowledged obligations in the law
of nations.
A REMARKABLE DOCUMENT.
The existence of this article was
not generally known by the diplo-
mats and others to whom it was
shown last night. Even such an
experienced treaty maker as VIM.
H. Trescott said that he could not
understand how it came to be in
serted, and Representative Me.
Creary, who has made a study of
all the treaties negotiated by this
country, said that it was the most
remarkable clause that had ever
come within his experience.
81 do not like to say that it is
mere buncomb," he added, land
yet it certainly would not stand a
moment in case of war notwith-
standing all its solemn and sacred
protestatIons,

an3 Other Matters Of
Interest.

| a day o. go ago q reporter met
Senator Vest in st. Louis and
said:
| Senator, what are your impres.
slons in regard to the issues of 1892
and the part the Farmers' Alliance
will take in The campaign?"
Unless I am greatly deceived
We will have some startling politi.
cal revelations in 1892. The DEM
ocratic and Republican parties will
have their candidates, but they
will not monopolize the field. The
Alliance movement is not ephem-
erai by any means. 1t may change
its shape and organization, but the
Causes for it are deep-seated and
will be felt at the polls. A major
|ity OF the Western end Southern
people, and especially the farmers,
are determined to resist the greedy
supremacy of New England and
New York. The West and South
will eventually combine, for it is
their only hope of relief. and un-
less the money power of the East is
wise enough to accept gracefully a
reduction of tariff taxes and the
Tree coinage of silver they will get
worse. The storm is rising, and
the mattering thunder has been al
ready heard. They should profit
by the lessons of history and re-
member the fate of African slavery.
The slave-ospers refused all COM
promise, and INSISTED upon the ex-
tension of slavsy to the terrific
ries and the result was Its abso.
Ilute extinction.
