WASHINGTON. April 4-The reply of Mar
quis Di Rudini to Secretary Blaine's note
has not yet been made public. and it is
doubtful if it will be given out tonight In
fact. il may not be made public at ALL ex-
cept in so far as its text may be Incorporated
in Secretary Blaine's response. II this
government considers the question of
indemnity. it is said that inquiry will be
made as to the standing in Italy OF the
alleged Italian subjects; whether or not
they were compelled to leave Italy for
crimes committed or attempted. In the
cases of several of the men killed the
charge seems to be well supported that
they were outlawed In their native
country. In that event compensation or
reparation would hardly be demanded
or allowed. 1t snow also intimated that the
recall OF Baron raya " Is yirtusIIy noting Fax
though somewhat better to-day. is still
quite weak and confined TO his room. He
had intended to sail from New York to-day.
but it is impossi BILE TO tell now how long he
will be detained in Washington.
The outcome of the action of the italian
government will be felt In Congress for
some time TO come. Until recently there
has been serious trouble In the
Harrison's Cabinet as to the ad-
visibility of recommending any leg
islatlon to Congress looking to
the suppression of immigration. but
the Maha affair and the International
complication which has grown out of it
has had q decided effect, and, as q result. it
can be positively stated that Mr. Blaine is
very earnest in his opinion, which
is that stringent laws are neces-
sary to keep out the ofscour--
every one of his advisers is still in favor OF
opening the doors to every desirable for
eigner who desires to come TO Amer
lea for the purpose OF bettering con-
ditions. provided that he is willing 60
abide by the Constitution and laws of this
country. bnt the Malta, the cut-throat and
the Anarchists are not desired, and Con-
gress will, at its next session, be asked TO
enact such legislation as will keep this ele-
ment out.
The Italian government will probably re-
ceive Mr.. Blaine's reply TO Rudini's latest
effusion on Monday, and it 10 safe TO predict
that that will be the last of the affair
until such time as the State Department.

The controversy 10 not viewed with the

seem to have assured people in some parts
of the country that serious trouble will not
