LONDON, March 1S.-The Times IN an
editorial on the New Orleans tragedy
says: 1T is all very well to reprobate
resort to violence, but in such cir
cumstances as these what way is there
for emancipating a community from
an intolerable tyranny excepting to
resort to violence? The law requires
trial by jury, and trial by jury has
been reduced to a farce by the knOwl-
edge possessed by every juryman. That
if he convlcts member of the Malta his
life is not worth a weeks purchase. 1t
is really an abuse of language to speak
OF resort to violence. The standing
rule in New Orleans is the rule of vio-
lence. Then all that MIR. Parkerson
and his followers have done is to accept
the conditions prescribed by the Malta.
All law rest ultimately upon force; and
when the courts are dominated by the
criminals whom they exist to punish
nothing remains but to go
Back TO First Principles
to effect their deliverance. Let lawleSS
violence be abandoned by all means,
but que meSsiurS less asSaSsinS COM
lynched there may nave been some who
did not actually fire at HenneSsey, but
it is not pretended that there were any
who were not members of the deteStable
society that decreed his death. That
being the case, it is impossible to feel
any very acute distress because i'll the
midst of the violence they had
rendered indispensable they have been
somewhat more severely punished than
if they had been legally dealt with"
CHICAGO, March 1S.-Italians in this
city do not propose to ''let up'' in their
efforts until reparatiOn has been made
for the New Orleans mob violence.
Oscar Durante, of L'Italie, outlined
their intentions to-day. He said: "Our
extra tonight will say that if no agree
ment has been concluded between the
governments by Sunday we will call
grand mass meeting Sunday evening in
the largest hall in Chicago. We will
Protest Bitterly
against the statements made by Mayor
Shakespeare, Parkerson and Wycklitfe.
We will propose that every Italian So
ciety in the United States send us pro-
tests against the acts of the mob and
ask reparation. We will propose. also,
that each italian colony of the United
States form a protesting committee
ready to send representative to Wash
ingt0n in case it be necessary to send a
lafge delegation TO the capital to form
ally protest IN the name OF all ltaEans
i'll the United States.
I'VE will prove that the statement
published to the effect that some promi-
nent Italians have approved the acts of
the mob is a lie."
CHICAGO, March 1S.-The following
message was received from Iron Mount
ain. Mich, to-day: 1.-The Italian resi-
dents Of Iron Mountain, Mich, and cti-
Zens of the United States protest against
the rash act of the sO-called elite society
of New Orleans, worthy only of bar
bar0us race and not of free and civil
lied country like America"
CHICAGO, March 1S.-D. G. O'Malley
of New Orleans, for whom body of
citizens were in search with noosed
rope. for alleged completely with the
Malta, is said to be in Chicago. He left
New Orleans and is reported to have
been seen at the Grand hotel in Cinciu-
natl, on Monday night

foreman of the jury in the Hennessy
case. The rumOr is that O'Malley came
here from Cincinnati, and is in hiding
with one of his friends, prominent
salOonkeeper. The latter denies that he
is here.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March 1s.-At
a meeting of Italian citizens last night
speakers denounced the New Orleans
lynching as bloody crime and barbar-
Gus butchery. Resolutions calling on
the government at Washington for i'm
mediate reparatiOn were adopted and
cabled to the premier and minister of
foreign affairs of Italy, and also tele-
graphed to Secretary Blaine. \ tele-
gram of sympathy was sent to the Ital-
ians at New Orleans.
NEW YORK. March 19.-The Cristo-
foro Colombo says editorially: Part of
the American press is striving to show
that the butchering of the Italians in
New Orleans is not an inter-
national affair. They say that everv
single state of the union is
self-governing and the federal power
has no faculty whatever to interfere
with its internal affairs. Ii Christoforo
Colombo answers that in the affairs of
the United States with foreign powers
the federal government is the legal
representative of every single
state and an international treaty signed
by this central power binds every other
state In the Union. Ii such was not
the case, it would be useless for the
foreign nations to make any treaty with
the United States, 1t would be better
TO make special treaty with each state
OF the Union"
