ROME, May 3.-The Green Book on the New
Orleans lyuching comprises twenty-four
d ispatches, dated from March 14th to April
29th 1t shows that tile Italian Govern
ment from the commencement persevered
in asking that criminal proceedings be taken
against the lynchers and that indemnity be
paid the families Of the victims. The ex-
preston brought to justice" recurs in the
official dispatches as well as in Baron Fava's
private letters. The principal communica-
tions have already been published. After
Blaine's note of April 14th tie volume con-
clUdes with a telegram from Marquis de
Rudni to Marquis lmperali the text Of
which is as follows:
have now before me a note addressed to you
by Secretary Blaine April 14th. lis perusal
produces a most painful impression upon me.
will not stop 10 lay stress upon the lack OF con
foTmily with diplomatic usageS displayed ln
making use. as Blaine did not hesitate 10 do, OF
a portion Of a telegram of mine, communicated 10
him In strcl confidence, in order TO get Tld oi

Nor viii stop TO point out The reiereBce IN lhlS

Government declares itself conscious oil what We
have constantly asked ana yet II does not q ant
our legitimate demands. Blaine Is right when
he makes tile payment of indemnify 10 the fdm-
lies OF The victims dependent upon the proof OF
the violation OF The treaty; but we shrink from
thinking that he considers that The fact of such
violation stiil needs prUof Italian subjects, ae-
quilted by American jurieS, were massacred In a
prison of Tie state without measures taken TO
defend them. What other proof does the Fed
eTal Government expect OF The violation OF
treaty wherein constant protection aud security
OF the subjects OF the contracting parties Is
is expressly stipulated? We nave placed
IN evidence hat lie has never asked anything
else but tie opening OF regular proceedings. In
regard to thiS, Baron FaYa'S hrSt note dated
March 10Th, contained even formula OF "a Jrle-
gram addressed on Tie same day by Blaine,
under an order of President Harrison, 10 the
| Governor of Louisiana. However, In his note OF
| April 4th Blaine Is silent on the subjecJ which
! is for US the main point IN the controversy. We
