New Orleans Always Had q Severe Way
of Treating Foreigners.
NEW ORLEANS, March 16.-Saturday's
trouble recalls "reminiscences of prior
crusade against Sicilians. In 1856 there
was Sicilian political club In existence
here, and it attempted to interfere with
the politics of the day. In the contest
between the democrats and the native
Americans, known as the know-nothing
party, the Sicilians were suddenly taught
a severe lesson, and very soon became
apprised of the fact that the native
American party would not tolerate their
interference. The foreigners had at
that time organized down town, and at
tempted to control that section of the
city. Because of their numerical
strength they prided themselves that
they would be successful, but they soon
found themselves deceived. There were
frequent rows between the two parties,
and one night during an election the
Sicilians attempted to take charge of the
polls. Riots followed, and ten or fifteen
of the Sicilians were either shot or driven
into the river. The event had whole
some effect. 1t kept them quiet until
the last few years.

Enormous Correspondence.
WASHINGTON, March 16.-President
Harrison is now experiencing the most
delicate period of his official career.
Heretofore he has been called upon to
deal only with questions in hand Now
he is asked to deal with theories and
hypothetical questions on paper. His
mail was never so large except during
the first three months of his experience
at the white house, when about half a
million citizens sought Office and each
felt it his Christian duty to have as
many Of his friends as possible address
the head of the nation an urgent appeal.
The correspondents at present largely
deal with the political future of the presi-
dent and the organization of the party
nationally or by states, districts, coun-
ties and townships. They seek advice
and apointers." The president has many
opportunities to commit himself as to his
individual plans and preferences politi-
cally. He is frequently requested to
announce whether he is candidate for
denomination, Notwithstanding the fact
that Gen. Harrison is not the character
of man who would announce his 1nten-
tions. one way or the other, thus far In
advance. If for no other reason than that
a wrong construction would be placed
npon his action. With about sixty ex-
senators and ex-congressmen and proba'
bly, 800 other prominent men seeking the
nine new judicial appointments, and an
army of applicants presenting their
claims for the land court and other
places, the routine work OF, the president
