The London News commenting on the New Orleans massacre says: "Italys in dignatien is shared by the whole civilized world. In nearly all such cases in Amer ica, the disease, corruption, is at the root of the evil. The Americans are at once the most patient and the most impatient people in the world. When they have grown tired of any grievance they move to their revenge with the swiftness of 8 hawk. The people of New Orleans could. have soon discovered which of the jurymen during the trial had fingered the murder CTS gold, and it would be better to keep the jail intact for them" The Post says that Saturdays occurrence in New Orleans will form deplorable page in American history. The Pall Mall Gazette holds that the English people ought not to hold up their hands in righteous horror, adding i: "One branch of the Anglo-Saxon race does not differ from another in this matter. The citizens of New Orleans. finding that the jury did not do it's duty said, We must by one means or by another put crime down." The St. James Gazette referring to the same subject says: ''The incident shows that native Americans have not lost the quality of stern resolution which is sometimes dissolved by life of comfort and luxury in modern society. The men who organized this defiance of formal jus tice are not ashamed of what they have done. They have defeated a society of foreign rufians who were trying to ter rorize a whole city It is doubtful if John test ill as emphatic a manner as the citizens of New Orleans have protested.
 The Popolo Romano referring to the New Orleans tragedy says that "relying on the foresight of Americ in authorities and out of regard for sincerely friendl, power, Italy has refrained from sending an ironclad to the mouth of the Mississippi D The Capitan Fracas4a says: "The weak in America are at the mercy of ferocious, bloody populace and are tortured and mur dered in daylight" The Don Chisciotte della Mancia remarks that "Italy ought to demand that instant measures be taken to protect the Italian colony in New Orleans, ' adding, however, Git is just also to recog- nize the fact that similar incidents would not occur if the towns on the Atlantic litto ral were not infested with the ex-galley slaves of Europe"
 N. Y. Recorder: Assuming that the victims of Saturdays wrathful ebuliition were all concerned in the killing of Chiei Hennessey, whose fault is that the ma chinery of the law could not be relied or to mete ont justice to them? Who rules in New Orleans and in Louisiana? The Ma6a, you say. If so, all the more shame to you, citizens of that city and state. The Italian colony among you from which tha organization draws its members forms bu a small fraction of your population, an6 probably only an infinitesimal proportion of that sympathizes with assassins. Yor form an overwhelming majority of the in habitants, and if your courts are corrup you are to blame and nobody else. Dt not try to shirk your responsibilities Judges and juries, as we'll as prosecuting attorneys and jailers, are your creations It has been in your power all these year to reform them if they needed reformation Why did you not act on behalf of purity and probity long ago?
