possibility that the correspondence be-
tweed Blaine and Marquis de RudiDi
will be given out this evening or tomof-
row morning. 1t depends upon the de
cision Of the president. The situation
is not improved as regards the relations
between the United States and Italy,
and whether it occurs now or later on
the recall of Porter the complete rup-
ture of diplomatic relations are likely.
Failing to get satisfaction Italy will
have to make some show of displeasure.

sufficient demonstration if made after
We failed to comply with her demand,
but the minister having been recalled
before the offense, she must seek some
other demonstration of displeasure after
the offense to make to make a complete
diplomatic rupture. This is the least
she can do, having already done so much
and it is the most she can afford to do
In the face of the complication of
European affairs and the poverty of her
treasury.
