WASHINGTON LETTER.
from our regular correspandent

Prom our regular correspondent.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., April l3.
The President evidc ntly isn't
frettlng about what Italy may or
may hot do, but is arranging mat
ters to start Tomorrow OH uls
western trip as if Italy was not III
existence. The rumor that Italy
had notified Mr., Blaine that unless
the answer to Rudini's last dis
patch was received by the 14th
inst, our minister would be sent
his passports and told TO get out
of Italy has few believers here,
although it has been several tlmes
reiterated by cable from Rome.
MIR. Blaine declines to talk about
the matter ut all, SO that it cannot
be positively stated that the an
swer has been sent to that dis
patch, although it is known that
it was prepared and approved
by the President and cabinet sew
eral days ago.
1t certainly had not been receiv-
ed in Rome up to Saturday night
or the semi-official Italian press
would not have repeated the
twaddle about what Rudini would
do if it was not received by Tues
J day of this week. When MIR.
Blaine decides not to talk one
might as well try to interview a
! marble statue. The impression
here is that these rumors are orig
mated by Rudini's friends for the
purpose of hurryIng Mr.. Blaine
, answer. If this be MIR. Blaine's 6
opinion and the answer has not
} gone should not be surprised if
it was Intentionally kept back for
time by Mr.. Blaine just to show
these excitable Italians that he
meant exactly what he said when
he wrote in answer to Baron
Fava's demand, that this Govern
ment declined to be hurried.
We are not so defenseless as
some people think. Hear Assist
ant Secretary OF war Grant on the
subject: within the last few days
mnch has be,n said about the
! powerful navy and the heavy
guns of European nation, and
tear has been expressed that such
heavy armament might enter the
harbor Of some of our largest cit
les. Let them come in if they
want 10; they would 60 no more
out forever. So perfectly and
, effectively has the work of de-
, struction been plnaned and carried
out that within a surprlsingl y
short time there can be placed be-
meath the waters surface an indef.
mite number of destructive explo-
sives and those can be SO arrang-
ed that vessels may pass over
! them unharmed and arrange
themselves in line of battle ready
for attack, and then by simple
l touch on the shore there will come
| instantaneous explosions all along
! the line, sufficient to destroy in ar
l instant of time the largest fee
that could find room in one of oul
| harbors.
Secretary Foster has gone te
New York on private business
J but while there he intends to per
! ! sonally investigate some matter:
= that have been brought to his at
: tcntion concerning the fedora
! offices i'll that city. He is deter
= mined that the administration o
J. those Offices shall be as near per

ing that the more satisfactory the
immense Federal business in the
great commercial center is trans
= acted the stronger it will make the
e Republican party.

famous artists and it Is the general belief that
it is a well founded fact. IL IS not true. how
