A BIG BLUFF.
The italian Minister Recalled.

On Tuesday the State Demartment
at Washington were little startled
by the sudden announcement of Baron
Fava, the Italian Minister to the
United States, that lie had received in
structions from Che officials of his gov
eminent to leave Washington and
that the business of the Legation was
in charge of thclMarquis Imperialii.
In letter of March 81 to Secretary
Blailp. Baron FAKE SAYS:
"By my two notes of the 18th ana
18th insts., / had the honor to call
your ExcelIency's serious attention to
the occurrences of exceptional gravity
which took place at New Orleans on
the 18th, whereby four subjects TO the
King of Italy, who were confined in
the prison of that city, were massacred
by the crowd, under the leadership OF
two American citizens.
"After having formally protested
against the unjustifiable conduct OF
the local authorities, which were evil
IDENTIFY recreant to all their duties on
that occasion, l reserved to the Gov
eminent of his Majesty the right to
demand such satisfaction as it might
think proper. The repa-
ration demanded by the Government
of the King, as have had the honor
TO inform you in our interviews held
during the last few days, were to con-
sist of the following points:
"First-The official assurance by the
Federal Government that the guilty
parties should be brought TO justice.
"Second-The recognition, in prin-
clple, that an indemnity is due 10 the
relatives of the victims.
ssYour Excellency was pleased 10
declare to me that, as the Federal
Government did not think it could
take this view of the case, it declined
.e~take, the two aforesaid demands
into consideration. Under these cir
cnmstances, the Government of his
Majesty, considering that the legiti-
mate action of the Kings Minister at
Washington becomes inefficacious, has
ordered me to take my leave"
Secretary Blaine replied to the Mar
wis Imperialli and in his letter he
says:
al beg to express the sincere regret
with which the Government of the
-IIpited States receives the intelligence
of Baron Fava's speedy departure
from the Capital. Though he has
more than once intimated this pur-
pose, the Government of the United
States has been unable to see adequate
reasons for such step.
y
sThe cause of his sundering his di-
nlomatic relations with this Govern
ment is thus given in his note:
ssThe reparation demanded by the
Goyernment OF the King, as l have
had the honor to inform you in our
interviews held during the last few
da<e, we're to consist of the following
points:
sFirst-The official assurance by
The Federal Government that the
guilty parties should be brought TO
justice.
'Second-The recognition, in prin-
ciple, that an indemnity is due to the
relatives of the victims.
.sTho first demand, thus stated by
baron Faya, is slightly changed in
phrase from that employed by him in
his many verbal requests, based on !
f,Ineram from the Marquis Rudini, /

~ have repeatedly given TO Baron
Fava the assurance that, under the di-
rection of the President, all the facts
and incidents connected with the I'M
happy tragedy at New Orleans ON the
14th of March last should be most
thoroughly investigated. 1 have also
informed him, that in a matter of such
gravity the Government of the United
States would not permit itself to be
unduly hurried nor will it make an
swer to any demand until every fact
essential tq-a correct judgement shall
r,sse,ra.>,lt,e~- vtained through
IegaR .s , know ''',.i@patie2fc of
the gglf Gan tried, }&Gral, but its
indulgence doesat,uiPlways secure the
most substantial Justice"
The facts are about as follows: On
the 10Th of October David G. Hen
messy, Chief of Police of New Orleans,
was assassinated by a band of italian
cut-throats. Many of these were ar
rested and the State made out what
was considered positive case. But
it was clearly established before the
verdict was brought in that the jury
had been tempered with, and it was
no surprise when verdict of acquital
was brought in for several of the ac-
cused aud a mistrial reported as to the
rest. The Italian element made every
demonstration of joy at the result,
going even so far as to hoist an Italian
flag over the United States flag which
was suspended upside down. These
demonstrations SO exaspereated the
already terribly outraged citizens of
New Orleans that call was made for
a mass meeting the morning after the
jury reported on the case, and the
citizens having assembled to the num-
Der of some thousands, proceeded to
the parish prison and shot without
mercy eleven of the accused, not wait
ing to enquire whether they were sub
jects of Italy or the United States.
Investigation develops that all but
three of those thus slain were natural
lied citizens of the United States, and
it is probable that the remaining three
were also subjects of this Government.
But, wheather they were or not, there
was no special i'll treatment accorded
TO the cut-throats from sunny Italy
that was not melted out to those
undeniedly subjects of the United
States. The Italian government wish
ing to do something that would tend
to make it solid at home and draw
the attention of its subjects for many
causes for discomfort, seizes upon this
chance opening and King Humbert
twists his mustachios and swaggers
around as if he really wanted a war
with this nation, thus making him
self and his government anything but
a dignified spectacle in the eyes of the
world. There will be a big amount
of bragadocia, but no war. Italy |
doesn't want it, can't afford it in fact,
and the United States is by no means
spelling for fight either.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1891-04-07

Some of the New York papers are
quoting prominent Italians of that city
as expressing the belief that in case OF
trouble between the United States and
Italy the naturalized italian residents
of their country would side with their
native land and against the coun-
try of their adoption. If this be true
then it is well that our people should
know it, and the sooner we become
aware what status these hot-bed, quick
grown. citizens are to occupy, the bet
ter. If this Italian incident shall lead
to revision of our naturalization laws
then Heunessey win not have died in
vain.

Rudini declared that Gtaly's right tc
demand and to obtain punishment OF
the murdercrs, 'and an indemnity fol
the victims, is uuquestionable.' 1t il
inferred that Baron Fava's change Of
phrase meant no change of demand.
-
"The President is unable to see how
any Government could justly give an
assurance of this character in advance
of trirl and a verdict of guilty In
the Constitution of the United States
it is declared that in all criminal pros
ecutions the accused shall enjoy the
right to speedy and public trial by
an impartial jury of the State and dis
trict wherein the crime shall have
been committed 1t needs no argu-
ment to prove that jury could not be
impartial, if it were in any sense, or to
any degree, bound before the trial OF
the accused, by an assurance which
the President of the United States had
ventured to give to a foreign power.
In the Constitution of the State OF
Louisiana, under whose immediate
jurisdiction the crimes were commit
ted, substantially the same provision
is found, so that the Governor of that
State would be as unable to give a
pledge in advance for the result of a
trial under State law, as the President
would be, were it practical to try the
leaders of the mob under the laws of
the United States. n
ain Baron Fava's second point, he
demands The recognition, in principle,
that an indemnity is due TO the rela-
tives of the victims. He is assuredly
under a grave error when he declares
that the United States Government
declined to take the demand into con-
sideration, and L shall regret if he has
communicated such a conclusion to
your Government.

MRS. TREES DRESSES.
Some She Wore Recently In the Character
of opheiia.

Several dresses of an entirely new order
were worn by Mrs. Tree as she appeared
in Opaelia in ManC hester, the other day,
as Il learned from an English paper.
Ophel,a, you know has always been n
long. slinky, lan&y girl, who seemed to
have no ba kbOne ana VINO certainly had
no waist or knees. When Mrs Tree was
engaged to take the part, she decided that
OpLelia should took pre- ty or die. And
later she made up her mind that Ophelia
should look pretty and die too
The rst dress which Mrs. Tree wore
was OF white satin. 1t was simply and
beautifully made IL was giTt in little,
and was not wholly unlike the ballroom
dress OF the dCbutante Of to-day. or
course il was not tailor-made, and there
was no sewing machinestitChing upon ii /;
but IL was graceful, and was made in
wliat is lsucwn Gs the baby" waist and
full skirt
The second was voted "quite lovely and
early Christiln.' II was a cashmere of
the softest, most clinging material, and
the sleeves were very, very full. In ap-
pcaraucc the picture which Mrs. Tree pre-
sented was exactly like one secs of the
carly Christian maidens who are por-
traycd TO us in old pictures as they went
10 their doom.
70 make more picturesque the numbers
Of white lilies which she carried Mrs.
Tree distributed number of scarlet gera-
NUNS among them, and this made their
whtencss more apparent and rendered
the picture abo"t n hundred times as
pretty az it would otherwise have been.
Wishy-washy Ophelia, whom nobody ever
quite sympathiles with, became thus a
a young woman VINO, while she may not
have been exactly after the minds OF most
of the women in the audince, was not yet
as entirely different from them as she
might have been if she had worn gar
ment cut in one piece and swung herself
wildly about with an armful of deathlike
lilies next her breast
