RoME, April Ian Associated Press
correspondent here has perused the
dispatches exchanged from the outset
between Italy and the United States in
regard to the New Orleans lynchings.
The substance Of them is that Italy
asked in the main that a fair, legal pro.
cess should be instituted against the cul-
prits, regarding them as common assas-
sins. Il also asked for an indemnity for
the families Of the men killed in New
Orleans, by the mob which invaded the
jail there.
To these requests the United States
authorities at Washington answered that
the Constitution Of the United States
affirmed Its good intentionsin the matter.
At this ttags OF the proceedings Baron
Fava, in one Of his letters to the Italian
Government, remarked that the above
reply showed an evident deaire 10 gain
time, and that 1t was no practical solu.
ton Of the question.
The answer from Washington being
regarded as unsatisfactory, Italy instruc.
ted Baron Fava on March 27, to press
the two original demands made upon
the United States and, in the event OF
bis failing TO obtain satisfaction to leave
Washington en- congo, alter consigning
the care OF the legation TO the
First Secretary. Baron Fava then re-
ported TO his Government that its in.
structions had been carried ont and he
declared that as the United States had
not fulfilled its duties as a civil govern.
ment, his presence was unnecessary at
Washington. This actionupon the part
OF Fava and his government Is not re-
garded as rupture; 1t Is meSely the first
step towards such rupture.
II Is believed that unless Baron Fava
receives q favorable reply within week
he will leave Washington for this city.
MINISTER PORTER CALLS ON PREMIER
RuDINr.
The United States Minister here, Mr..
A.G. Porter, yesterday callsd to see the
Italian Premier, Minister Rudini, who,
however, was absent from his office
Mr.. Porter saw the Under Secretary OF

ing in detail the obstacles existing in
the United States which are In the way
OF q speedy settlement Of the questions
involved in the lynchiDgs. Mr.. Porter
admitted that there was reason and fair.
ness In the demands OF the Italian Gov.
ernment, and promised that they should
be urged upon his government.
Political circles here fully endorse the
action OF the Italian government. The
newspapers OF this city pronounce
themselves very strongly against the
action OF the United States, aud promi-
uent Italians have suggested that the
Italian government should break of all
negotiations with the government at
Washington, and that it should in future,
80 far as the New Orleans lyuchings are
concerned, deal directly with the State
OF Louisiana, and that the latter's gov
ernment should be called to account for
the killing Of the Italian prisoners in the
New Orleans Jail.
Marquis Di Rudini, the Italian Pre-.
mier, arrived here from Florence late
iaet night, having been summoned by
and during the course of an
interview to-day with an Associated
Press correspondent, said that personal.
" he was most kindly disposed towards
the United States Government, and ex-
pressed the hope that the civil authori.
ties OF the United States would not fhl
in their duties towards society, justice,
and the law.
Public opinion, however, he added,
demands a more energetic course Of &C.
ton. II the United States, he eontin-
ued, does not perceive that 1t Is in the
wrong, a Diplomatic rupture Is inevlta'
table. Continuing, the Premier said:
"The report that Americans had been
insulted and arrested in Italy, as an out
come 10 the present negotiations, is too
ridiculous and false. Americans always
receive here the best and kiudest hospi' |
tality, both upon the part OF the Italian
government and Italian people, both
knowing perfectly the duties Of civil
ized country"
PRESSURE BROUGHT TO BEAR ON THE PRE-
MlRR,
It is thought that the pressure brought
to bear upon the Marquis DiRudini, and
which compelled him to act as vigor.
ously as he has, was ioRented by the
friends Of signor Crispi, the late Pre-.
mier Of Italy. Especially was this pres.
sure brought TO bear by the slcilians,
who, more or less, were either dreadinR
or were in sympathy with the Malta
Society. Their attitude has been
stiffened by the fact that the leading
opponents OF Sisnor Crispi and his
cabinet, openly declared that the lynch.
ing OF the Italians confined in the all
OF New Orleans was just, even II It was
Illegal. one OF these opPopepts OF the
Crispi cabinet is charged with the
authorship OF q strong editorial pub
lished iu the FanenuSM to-day which
argues that the Italian Government
would do we'll to suppress crime In Italy
before meddling with the punishment
Of murders In Nav Orleans. This edi.
tofial adds that It Is q notorious fact
that not day passes without murder
taking place in Italy, the majority ot
which crimes 20 unpublished. These
critics, however, feel that the weak
point Of the United States case is the
blibed jury's acquittal Of the assssstns.
