Ex-Governor Ireland on the Imbroglio.

special 10 the Gazette.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, April 4.-Concerning
the imbroglio between the United States
and Italy, Ex-Governor Ireland to-day said :
The situation between the United States
and Italy will not result in war
( The treaty between the two coun-
tries is such that III time the matter in
al likelihood will be settled without any
necessity of resorting to blows. The
course pursued by Blaine has been very
commendable except in the instance where
he wrote TO Governor Nichols of Louisi-
ana. The Federal government has no iur-
isdictior over the offenses committed
by the mob at New Orleans, and
therefore the letter written by Blaine to
Governor Nichols is out of place. There
is no necessity of resorting to any harsh
means. The constitution Of the United
States fixes it so that the laws of the state
of Louisiana alone have Jurisdiction over the
punishment of mob, and the officers
there age making a rigid investiga-
ton Of the affair. There is no
question but that, according to the treaty
between the United states and Italy, con-
tinued Governor ireland, our government
will have to indemnify the families of those
italian citizens who were killed by the mob
in New Orleans, provided they can estab-
lish the fact their people left Italy in good
standing and not as fugitives.
