ATLANTA. GA, April 1.-The Atlanta
Constitution will say tomorrow that it
was Mr.. Blaine'S duty TO inform Italy's
Minister first that the Malta aSSasSins
were not executed because they were
ltaliapS, but but because they were pro-
fesSiqnal murdererS, and second that the
CniteH States Government has and can
have mo jurisdiction in calling the
eXecutiOnerS Of the aSSaSSinS TO account.
The Italian government ought 10 be told
now that the United States government
proposes TO do nothing, because it can
do nothing: that the American people
strongly sympathize with the spirit and
the motive that led TO the execution Of
the Malta aSSaSSinS; and that the only
way for the Italian government to
remedy matters is TO recall its expatri-
ated aSSaSSinS with its Minister.

PARKERsBURG, w. Va, April l.
When DR.. John II. Kelly, prominent
young physician OF this city, and Miss
Linnie Broughton, daughter OF Cook
Broughton, Esq, OF this city, left on
the Baltimore and Ohio train last even
ing for the East together, it was whis-
pered about town that the young
couple, who were known to be low
ers, had been married on the
quiet, but this afternoon a tele-
gram received from p. V. Dolan, dated
Baltimore, announced the marriage Of
the couple at the residence Of Cardinal
Gibbons in Baltimore. Dr. Kelly is a
Catholic, and his bride Protestant.
and it seems when Bishop Kahn was
here a few days since, the doctor got
the necessary dispensation for marriage,
know as ''mirtdS religiOnis," and that
on a subsequent visit TO Baltimore he
made the necessary arrangements there.
Rev. p. J. Donohue, Cardinal Glib
bons' secretary, performed the cere-
mony. DR.. Kelly and bride will return
to this city tomorrow. The doctor is
one OF the most prominent physicians OF
this city and his bride very popular
society young lady. The affair is the
sensation OF the day.

AT NEW ORLEANS.
The News of Fava's Recall Discussed-No
Trouble Anticipated.


New ORLEANS, April There was
naturally the greatest interest manifest
ed this morning in late news from
Washington with respect TO the recall
OF Baron Fava and further information
was eagerly looked forward 10. No
other subject was more thoroughly dis
cuSSed throughout the city by all classes
OF citizens, and the patriotism Of the
city was undOubted. While, OF course,
il was not believed the news was an
April fool hoax, the guarded way In
which the reports were sent out from
Washington created the belief that il
Baron Fava had been recalled it was
possibly due 10 other causes.
4 reporter visited the Office Of the
Italian Consul here this morning in
search Of further confrmatory news
The consulate here is an important one,
and Chevalier COrte has had consider
able experience In diplomatic affairs.
Last night the Consul was inclined TO
ridicule the news transmitted bither,
because he had not been notified Off
cially, and said that If the Minister had
been recalled he would have been COM
municated with. He said also if there
was a declaration OF hostility the flags
would be taken down from the consulate
buildings, and the Consul would prepare
10 leave the city. He said he telegraphed
70 Baron Fava for an explanation, and
had received dispatch this morning
officially notifying him that Baron Fava
had been recalled.
The Consul was busy and did not care
TO discuss the situation or the probable
effects Of the recall AT the Consulate,
however, the hope was expressed that
no hostilitieS would enSue, and that
through diplomacy the friendly rela-
tious heretofore existing between the
two governments wonld be renewed.

Especially was the pressure brought 10

attitude has been stiIened by the fact

charge of having been implicated In the
murder of the Caief of Police of that

KINCAID TEsrIFfEs
In His Own Behalf-Dogged and Hound
ed by ex-Conpressmrn Taulbee


WASHINGTON, d. c., Apail 1.-The
defendant in the Kincaid trial was put
upon the stand to-day. He testified as
TO the poor state Of his health for some
years before the shooting, to the re-
peated insults heaped upon him and as
saults made upon him by Taulbee, and
TO the threats made against his l.fe by
the deceased. The alteration which
had shortly preceded the shooting was
graphically described, the witness testi-
flying that Taulbee had called him a
damned little coward and monkey, and
told him TO arm himself. He had fired
the shot because he believed IL was
Taulbee's life or his.
Mr.. Kincaid further testified that
Taulbee's personal relations with him
for two or three years were very bitter.
Taulbee never neglected an opportunity
when he could TO assault witness and to
follow him up. Taulbee whenever be
met him used to push him roughly. On
one occasion he threw him across cor
ridor; at another time he crushed wit
ness foot between his heel in the
elevator. On the day the Silcott defal-
cation became known the witness went
to the Sergeant-atArms' room for infor-
nation. Taulbee sprang out from be-
hind an iron grating, and forced wit
ness into an angle, and said, putting his
hand into his right hand pocket: 81
ought to cut your damned throat" or
81 will cut it,"
On the day of the shooting, Taulbee
seized him by the shoulder, used him
wrenched his ear, applied the
most offensive language to him, and
pushing him away told him to go on and
arm himself. This he hissed in his ear.
Afterwards he saw Taulbee on the
steps. GAS soon as we recognized each
other" said Mr.. Kincaid, "Taulbee
came toward me with his right hand in
his pocket. ! said, You are going TO
kill me, are you?' At the same. time the
other man wheeled and interrupted
Taulbee for a moment. Taulbee came
on. | retreated to the platform and
said, stand back drawing my revolver.
As he came on the upper step | hred.

the bottom began to sink little. An
officer came out and asked, Who did

why did you fire that shot?' asked

because, said Kincaid, II believed
Il was his life or mine. | could not be
100 quick. His hand was in his pocket.
He came at me with a rush"
Upon cross-examination Mr.. kncaid's
testimony was unshaken.

war. The heavy draft Italian war ships
could not successfully lombard the city
without entering the harbor, and
they were not likely to enter the
harbor, because aside from the
perils OF navigation certain preparations
could and would speedily be made to
render the water untenable for them.
Submarine mines could be arranged,
although it did not follow that hostile
vessel would be obliging enough to pass
over them. Torpedoes could be planted,
but the history OF naval operations In
the James river showed that they did
not render river impossible TO the
fleet. But these devices were all Of use,
and supplemented by other defensive
measures that could be adopted, but
which could not now be described, they
would probably make New York city
tolerably safe from naval attack.
