Favor Indictments.

NFw ORLEANS, April 7.-Signor
Corte, the Italian consul here, appeared
before the grand jury to-day by request
of the district attorney. The grand ju-
ry, however, returned no indictments
to-day. 1t is said that it may find
some, and that some of the leaders are
in favor of that action being taken, be-
lieving that it will settle all the diplo-
matte trouble. They are confident that
on trial any jury will bring in verdict
of acquittal, but it is improbable that
any action will be taken. Signor
Corte received telegram from Baron
Fava to-day announcing his recall, but
giving no reason for it. Governor
Nichols went to Baton Rouge to-day.
He is concerning himself very little
about the complications that have
arisen, and apparently thinks that
there is nothing further for him TO say
or do at present. There has been no
further communication between the
governor and Secretary Blaine since

A Strange Story.

NEW CASTLE, Pa, April 7.-Sebas-
tian Gebarrio, leader of the 300 Italians
employed near Wampum tells strange
story, which, he said, should be com.
municated to the authorities at once.
Gebarrio is a property owner in
Wampum and seems to place considera-
bic weight upon the information i'm
parted. He said that yesterday
strange Italian who resides
in the city OF Pittsburg called him
aside and asked him if he would go into
a plot to avenge his eountrymen who
had been killed at New Orleans. The
stranger, who refused TO give his name,
said that at least 10000 Italians could
be brought into Pittshurg in five hours
and with the aid of guns and by sur
prising the citizens they would be able
to take the city without much trouble.
He strongly urged Gebarrie to get
the Italians at Wampun to consent
to meet the others in Pittsburg
at given signal. He then went on TO
tell how every Italian settlement in Al
legheny and Beaver counties were re-
ceiving the same information and how
each settlement was expected to send a
large delegation. He stated also that a
movement of this kind was to be started
over the country. In the afternoon the
Pittsburg envoy left for Carbon, this
county, to stir up the Italians there.
There are four or five hundred Italians
at Carbon aid at least hall a
dozen are members of the Malta.
A dispatch from Wheeling states thai
2. 600 Italians near Moundsville now EN-.
ployed on the railroad and who have
been drinking, intend to go to New Or
leans, though for what purpose they re.
fuse 10 state.

Population and Humidity.
The census office has issued a bulleti

The census Office has issued a bulletin
upon the subject Of the distribution of
population in accordance with mean
relative humidity of the atmosphere.
The reason for publishing these statis-
tics is because of climatic influences on
diseases. 1t shows that nearly all the
population of the United States breathe
an atmosphere containing 90 to 80 per
cent of its full capacity of moisture:
that is, the atmosphere is from two
thirds to three-fourths saturated. In
1890, 81. 7.036. coo of 81, ,622 600 inhabitants
were found in this region: in 1880, 49,
$50, 900 out of 80, l55, 7S3. and in 1870,
36, 273, 900 out OF IS, $3.50 The num-
Der of inhabitants living in a drier
atmosphere was at each census COM
paratively trifiing, numbering in 1870
less than 500. 900, and in 1890 less than
100000 In the moister atmosphere
were found larger numbers scattered
along the gulf coast and the shores OF
Washington and Oregon. The most
rapid increase, says the bulletin, has
been found at the top and bottom of the
scale, and particularly in the more
arid region, where the population has
nearly doubled during each of the last
two periods.

Dun's Review of Trade.

New YORK, April 7.-R. G. Dun 3
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
The actual condition of business does
not improve, however hopeful the an
ticipations warranted.
The interests Of property in many
forms are for the time affected, and
meanwhile the usual demand for money
in April settlements has made markets
rather closer, though speedy relaxa-
tions is expected. Nearly all the inte-
rior money markets are quiet and COM
paratively easy.
The failures of the first quarter of 1891
have been 3,245 in number against B.
223 last year, and the liabilities s42,-
16I, 752 as againt s57 ,S52, 96S in the Uni
ted States, but more than the entire in
crease, both in number and liabilities,
appears in the southern states alone.
The eastern and middle states report
more failures and smaller liabilities
than last year, but the western states
report nearly as much increase. In
Canada the number of failures has been
SIS against 636 last year, but the liza
bilities were S6,04S, ,334 as against S5,-
529, 449 last year.
Trade at Boston has been quiet. The
movement of mems woolens is unsatis-
factory. Philadelphia notes slow col
lections in most lines. Pittsburg notes
no important changes and Cleveland
only fair trade, with Cincinnati, Louis
Vile, st. Louis and Kansas City in the
same condition. Chicago notes an in
crease over last year in receipt of grain
and cheese and so per cent in wool, with
no change in cured meat and hides, and
q decrease in flour, lard, butter, and 80
per cent in dressed beef. Merchandise
moved more slowly than a few weeks
ago on account of bad roads.
The wooden manufacture is doing
fairly, but reports from the west are
that growers look for high prices on
the new clip of wool, which the present
market for goods does not warrant.
The boot and shoe trade is dull.
Speculation in breadstuffs does NOT
abate and with sales of $4,000, 900 BUSH
els, wheat is II cents higher than
week ago.
Corn is shade lower and oats I'M
changed, but pork is so cents per bar
rel higher aud a quarter Of a cent per
pound
Coffee is an eighth stronger and oil
three-eights with small sales.
The average of all prices is shade
lower than a week ago.
The Atlantic exports of wheat,
-four and corn are much smaller than
last year. but the domestic trade of the
country represented by bank exchanges
continues surprisingly close to that of
last year. because of the large advance
in prices of important farm products.
The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
sevel days number 245 as compared
with total of 256 last week: for the
corresponding week of last year the fig
ures were 265.

An Interesting Paragraph.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE Post
says: The treaty of 1871 with Italy was
signed at Florence. 1t is a lengthy doci
ument. The: following from it is inter-
esting:
I'm case OF war between the two coun-
tries the merchants at the ports OF each
other shall have six months, and those
in the interior one year, in which te
arrange their business and leave the
coudtry. All women and children, ar
fists: and all those engaged in occupa-
tiOn for the common substance and
benefit of mankind shall be unmolested.
The treaty declares that war shall not
nullify its province. The extraordi-
nary provision in the treaty was a sur
prise to well known diplomats to whom
it was shown.

Hamilton FIsh's Views.

NEW YORK, April 7.-Hamilton
Fish, whose public services and great
experience in statecraft entitle his ut
terances to consideration. was in phi
losOphic frame OF mind. He laughed at
the bare mention of war. Italy has a
great navy" he remarked, ''but is prac-
tically without money, and that alone
would make it almost impossible to go
to war. Her money troubles were the
cause of the recent overflow OF Crispi
and his government"
But could she not rely upon Ger
many and Austria for financial support
under the treaty of the triple alliance?"
No one knows the terms of that
treaty, but | do not think it at all prob
able that Germany and Austria would
assist Italy in war with the United
States. My own opinion is that the
triple alliance was agreed upon for the
protection of the powers against France
upon the one side and Russia on the
other, and the terms OF the treaty do
not extend to America
Are you of the opinion that our gov
ernment has pursued the proper course
in this matter?'
Eyes. Mr.. Blaine's letter was cour-
teous, dignified and manly. The feder-
al government is not in a position to
take action in the matter. It is yet
state affair. l see that the remaining
Italian prisoners, five in number, con-
fined in the parish prison for compile
ity in the murder of the policeman,
have been released on bail. That / re-
gard as a concession to Italy and it
shows the proper spirit. The affair is q
nasty one, admit, but believe there
will be no serious trouble.
''DO you see any politics in this
thing?"

The Wear on Gold Coin.

II scarcely seems credible, yet it is
true that if a million dollars in s. and
SO gold pieces were shipped to Europe
tomorrow the mere rolling OF the ship
and the pulsations of its engines would
wear off hundreds of dollars worth OF
the soft and precious metal. We Amer
leans use an alloy of one-tenth copper in
making our coins-to harden them.
The English use less-one twelfth.
Some time ago the English government
filled two spinning cylinders with coin,
one with our and one with theirs, and
let them both revolvidg. They ac-
knowledged that theirs wore away
much more under the shaking than
ours did, but OF course they were too
conservative to change their standard.

The Mule As a Slayer.

Notwithstanding the great impetus
given to horse breeding, says the Iotod
Homestead, the mule doggedly and
muiishly holds his own. He has his
place in agriculture and will keep it.
The development of the draft horse
business will in the end be great adj
vantage to the mule interest. The
great trouble in the West has been to
get mules large enough to command
the top prices. Draft mares crossed
with large jack will give the size as
far as inheritance goes. and generous
feed will do the rest. There is plenty
Of money in growing larger, well,
shaped mules.

THE AGONY OF DEATH.
According to a physician It Is Purely
Imaginative.

According to a physician It Is Purely
Imaginative.
Many persons wonder" said the house.
physicians can watch unmoved the death of
persons whose dissolution is seemingly ac-
companed by evidences of great suffering,
and the remark Is a common one that doc
tors are heartless and unfeeling. This harsh
criticism is founded on wrong idea of
things. The fact is that what is known as
the death agony is largely restricted to the
Imagination OF The watcher at the bedside
OF the dying person. The visible spasms
and distortions of the facial muscles, which
in many mark the ending of life, are not
only painless, but take place unconsciously
so far as the dying person is concerned.
" Even in cases of death by hanging
where the prolonged agony Of the sufferer
is feelingly described by witnesses, it is
reasonably certain that in a few moments
the person becomes unconscious and dies in
that condition. Such has been the exper-
fence OF persons accidentally or purposely
hanged, but afterWaid resuscitated. 1t is
fact that people who have been nearly
drowned agree in the statement that after
few moments Of painful struggle feeling
of tranquility ensues.
The suffering Is while the resuscitated
person is being brought back to conscious
ness. Then 1t IL he often suffers physical
pain and mental misery. 1t is q mereiful

WAR RELICS.
A Curious MsmRlt0 Of The First Blood Shed by
The C0nfederateS.

Colonel Il. +. Hawkes. of the Pension
Office possesses a curious memento of the
first bloodshed OF the civil war. 1t is the
first blood drawn from the veins OF Fed
eral officer by Confederate fire.
Talking with me about war times the
other day Colonel Hawkes. took the paper
from little bundle he carried and held I'D
for Inspection low-cut gray vest of sort
OF pepper and salt pattern, bound about
the edges with brown silk cord and orna-
mented with buttons that looked like bullets
1t had been garment of a civilian before
the war. On the side. a little forward of the
arm-bole, was ragged hole about the size
of mans thumb. Below this a dark stain
ran down, spreading until it covered nearly
all one side of the vest On the inside this
stain colored the entire lining Of the vest.
Tue garment was soaked with blood that
had dried into Ii and Stiffeped it like raw
hide.

said Mrs. Allaire, possibly we shall

Yes. only few weeks" Mr.. HOLSTER
made haste to reply.
Fortunately another thought now took
complete possession of Molly's mind. 1t
WAS this: Thanks to this fortune willed 10
her by Edward Mason, there would be no
necessity of John following the sea anv
longer. She would never again be left

It was far better that either Andrew Hol-
