LONDON, April 3.-Current opinion
here is settling more steadily against the
action of Marquis Di Rudini in trying to
force the hands of Blaine in the matter
of lynching of Italians in New Orleans.
Tomorrow's leading high class weeklies
will devote considerable attention to an
analysis of the position and generally
discuss the affair from the standpoint of
the United Strtes constitution. The
Spectator holds that SERIOUS thinking
Americans will admit an imperfection
of the constitution, and that they are
bound to remedy the defect all the more.
because there is a small chance of their
being compelled to remedy it."
Touching the talk of a war the Spectator
ridicules the nation of Italy for declaring
wal against the greatest power in the
world"-a power capable within six
months of buying and building a fleet
that would block every port in Italy.
American ingenuity would be 50 stimu-
lated to Guido itself that it would turn
every steamer that could float into an
improved iron-clad.

against home rule.
\ report prevailed in political clubs
tonight that Lord Salisbury at the in
stigation of Marquis Di Rudini would
offer to mediate for an adjustment of
the difference between Italy and the
United States. a high foreign official
when asked to state the views Of the gov

been discussed. He admitted that
a communication had been sent to
Sir Julian Paucefotc to report on the
question, especially as affecting British
subjects.
The nationals discounted their victory
in Sligo to same extent by exaggerated
predictions as to the majority. It is esti-

The census of the United Kingdom
will be taken on Sunday. The country
