 O'NIalley fin Peril - The Jury to Be
 Looked After.
 WASHINGTON, March. 16.-Baron Fava, the Italian minister, has formally brought to the attention of the president the slaughter of the Sicilian prisoners in the parish prison at New Orleans. As result Secretary Blaine has sent the following dispatch to Governor Nicholls: "It has been represented to the president by the minister of Italy accredited to this govern ment that among the victims of the de plorable massacre which took place in the city of New Orleans Saturday were three or more subjects of the king of Italy. Our treaty with that friendly government (which under the constitution is the SUI preme law of the landD guarantees to the Italian subjects domiciled in the United States the most constant protection and security for their persons and property making them amenable on the same basis as our citizens to the laws of the United States and of the several states in their due and orderly administration.
 The Presidents Deep Regret.
 "The president deeply regrets that the citizens of New Orleans should have so disparaged the purity and adequacy of their own judicial tribunals as to transfer to the passionate judgment of a mob a question that should have been adjudged dispassionately and by settled rules of law. The government of the United States must give to the subjects of friendly powers that security which it demands foH our own citizens when temporarily under 8 foreign jurisdiction. It is the hope of the president that you will cooperate with hlm in maintaining the obligations of the United States toward the Italian subjects who may be within the perils of the pre- sent excitement, that further bloodshed and violence may be prevented and that all offenders against the law may be promptly brought to justice"
 Not an International Consideration.
 What further steps, if any, will be taken by the president beyond his mere disap- proval of mob violence cannot be ascer- tained tonight. At the Italian legation absolute reticence on the subject is pre- served. Among congressman and diplo- mats, who have given such matters much attention, it is not thought that the massa- ere of the several Italian subjects can be- come d matter for international considera- tion or complication between Italy and the United States. The men, it is said, were not murdered as Italians, and the only reparation that can be obtained is possibly damages by the wives or relatives of the dead Italian subjects from the municipal government of New Orleans for not pro tecting the persons of individuals (aliens) who, at the time they met their death, were at least temporarily in the custody of the municipal authorities of that city.
 Mayor Shakespeare Marked.
 Great fear is now felt here by former residents of New Orleans, now in Wash ington, that the race troubles are not at an end there yet, and it is freely predicted that at the first overt act on the part of Sicilians the Italian quarter will be sacked. Tue police hate the Italians, and would be of no use in snppressing an outbreak against them. The Italians are all armed and will fight with that strange fury that upon oc- casions characterize mObs of the Latin race The meddling of the Italian consul and his threats have greatly embittered the sentiment against the whole race. The next fortnight is full of peril. Mayor Shakespeare, his secretary and six council men, they say, are marked for the stilletto or bullett.
 The Italian Cabinets Instructions.
 ROME, March 16-The Italian cabinet has sent instructions by cable to the Italian minister at Washington Baron de Fava to protest vehemeptly against the murder of Italians in the prison at New Orleans on Saturday last. Baron Fava has cabled in reply that he had presented the protest to the government of the United States and received in reply the promise that full satisfaction would be given.
 Italy All Torn Up.
 The news of the massacre did not be come generally known in that city until Sunday morning. It created a profound | sensation, and cables have been passing between the cabinet and the Italian minis
