RUDlNl IN A RAGE.
Italy's Premier Stops Correspondence
With Blaine

ROME, May 3.-The Green Book on
the New Orleans lynching comprises
twenty. four dispatches, dated from
March IA to April Is. 1t shows that
the Italian Government from the COM
mencement perseversed in asking that
criminal proceedings be taken against
the lynchers and that indemnity be palo
to the families of the victims. Inc eX-
preston brought to justice" recurs IN
the official dispatches as well as Baron
Faya's private letters. The principal
communications have already been
published.
After Blaiue's note of April IA the
volume concludes with telegram from
the Maouis di Rudni to the Marquis I'M
perali, the text of which is as follow:
have now before me note address
ed to you by Secretary Blaine of April
a. Its perusal produces most pain
full impression upon me. | will not
stop to lay stress upon the lack OF con-
formity with diplomatic usages dis:
played in making public, as Blaine dld
not hesitate to do, of a portion OF a te!e-
gram of miae communicating to him in
direct confidence in order to get rid OF
the question clearly defined in our otficl'
al documents which alone possess diplo-
matte value. Nor will l stop to point
out the reference in this telegram OF
mine of March q, that the words pun

of telegraghic language. actually slgnl-
fed only that the prosecution ought to
be commenced in order that individuals
recognized as guilty should not escape
punishment. Far above all astute ar
guments remains the fact that hencefor'
ward the Federal Government declares
itself conscious of what we have con.
stantly asked. and vet it does not grant
our legitimate demands. Blaine is
right when he makes payment of indem.
nity to families of victims dependent
upon proof of violation of the treaty
but we shrink from thinking that he
considers that the fact Of such violation
still needs proof. Italian subjects &C
Quilted by American jurles were maSSa'
cred in the prisons of the State without
measures being taken to defend them
What other proof does the Federal Gov
eminent expect of the violation of the
treaty wherein constant protection and
security of the subjects Of the contract
ing parties is expressly stipulated. We
have placed on evidence that we have
never asked anything else but the open:
ing of regular proceedings. In regard
to this, Baron Fava's first note, dated
March Is, contained even the 1Ormula

The War in Chile.

WASHINGTON, April 30.-Rear Ad-
mlral McCan. in command OF the South
Atlantic Station, has sent the Navy De-
partment long report, dated Caldlra,
March "a, in regard to Chilean affairs.
The Congressional deputies (the insur-
rectionary Chiefs he says, had their
headquarters on board transport in the
harbor of Iquique. During the forenoon
of the 18th, while the Pensacola This
flagship was at Iquique, the lnsurgent
man ot-war Esmeralda, and the TRIMS
ports Aconcagua and Maipo put to sea
to attack Autofagasta, with about l 800
troops on board. The iroaclad Blanco
Encalada was blockading Autofagasta
at the time. The Chilean officers sta
ted that it was the intention to attack
and capture africa, then blockaded by
the Huascar.
The admiral, IL his account Of the cap
ture of Iquique by the insurgents, says
that by the fire of ships five blocks Of
houses were destroyed, considerable coal
burned and the Office Of the United
States consul destroyed. The fighting
back of the hills eliminated in battle
with 1000 men on each side. Before
the fight 200 governmenttroops deserted
to the insurgents. The fight was brief,
but sanguinary, the insurgents ackr owl
edglng 200 killed and about the same
number wounded, while the government
had 400 killed and 200 wounded. Early
IN the fight the government cavalry fed
killing everyone that came in their way
whether friends or foes. Col. Robels
the government commander, was wound
ed and captured and afterwards assassl
mated in his bed.
The government force in the neighbor
hood of Iquique seems to have entirely
disappeared. Anumber of troops ralset
IN the south and sent north to fight have
gone over to the insurgents, and it woult
s ee n as if President Balmaceda was to
small extent recruiting an army for tht
benefit of his enemies. The lnsurgen
forces are at present i'll possession Of tht
entire northern coast from africa to Tai
talaner, 400 miles, as we'll as holding tht
extensive nitrate deposits on the pampas
which have been the great source Of rev
enue to Chile, and they are able to main
tain their position so long as the govern
ment is without a navy, as tn; mountain
coasts and the great desert are impractl
cable for extensive military operations

BENNETTSVlLLE is BEWlLDERED.
Mysterious Occurrence Savoring OF the
Supernatural.

BENNETTsv1LLE, S. c., May 1.-There
was a mysterious occurrence in Ben
nettsville few nights ago, which has
puzzled the most philosophical minds,
Many theories have been advanced, yet
the mystery remains unsolyed. Doors
and windows are barred at night; noe
turnal pedestrians ambulate the streets
with lighted lanterns; the cracking OF
twig or the rustic of the wind causes
a sudden halt and rapid pulsations OF
the heart. The colored people are
alarmed beyond description, and are
daily expected to institute general
exodus from the town.
For two months Mr.. 2. G. Emanuel
has been living in Mr.. St. 7. Covlng'
tons house in East Bennettsville. This
is comparatively a newly settled place
splendid building, surrounded with
sweet and luxuriant flowers, situated
in one of the most desirable neighbor'
hoods in town.
On the night in question, Mr.. Eman:
uel and wife had just retired, but haG
not gone to sleep. The moon Was
shining brightly, everything being quiet
and serene. About II o'clock, the re
port of what seemed a gun was hearc
at the bed chamber window. The shot
was plainly heard falling in the room
Mr.. Emanuel is not timld man by
any methods. He has plenty Of nerve
and scarcely can be frightened by or
dlnary means. He at once concluded
that some one had accidentally shot IN
to his room, but directly a second re
port. at the same place, was repeated.
Mrs. Emanuel was terribly fright
ened. Her husband lowered the lamp
rushed to the window, threw open the
blinds, and discharged his pistol in tht
direction of the ground. For minute
or two all was quiet, when suddenly
in his room, near his trunk, IN raplC
succession, two reports of what seemed
to be pistol shots, were heard. Attel
a short interval there were two report:
under the house, directly under the bed
room, and just at that moment the
house shook and crockeryware ratified
and a noise was heard as If glass were
being ground in mill, and slmulta
neously every rooster in the nelghbor
hood commenced growing.
Mr.. Emanuel says he was sure thai
judgment day had arrived, and that III
had no other thought but that in shor
time he would be facing the 1mmacu
late Judge. Mr.. Emanuel vacated th'
house at once, and the place is now un
occupied, where "gobblin damns" cal
hold high carnival. Mr.. Emanuel is al
honest, truthful and intelligent citizen
and the above facts were reclted tt

A Ringing Indictment

In recent interview Captain M. M.
Munson, Democratic member of the
last Legislature, from Licking county,
has this to say regarding Governor Camp
bell and the late Democratic Legislature:
Governor Campbell has shown himself
to be reckless fnancier, and the record
Of the last Legislature has been in keep
ing with his characteristics. Governor
Campbell in this campaign can not point
with truthfulness to any creditable act
of the last Legislature. Tho measures
it enacted, when not downright outrages
on the public, were bunglesome. There
never was more extravagant General
Assembly in the history Of this State.
Then, too, it utterly failed to respond to
the demands made by the agricultural
element. It is true that fee and salary
bill was enacted to answer the crying
need of reform of the remunerations Of
county officials. The law enacted,
though, was hollow mockery. 1t was
Of no benefit whatever. The measure
was fixed up to suit everybody, that is
every Democratic member of the Legis-
lature, and consequently 1t does not pro-
vide for a uniform system of official sal
aries. Deception is practiced in nearly
every section Of the bill. 1t is nothing
more nor less than pretense to make
the farmer believe that he is not pay ing
the same office-holders as much as he
formerly did"

The Ohio Democrats are now begin
ming to get very red in the face. And
not without cause. Major Mckinley is
telling the Ohio farmers all about sugar.
The Democracy can't very well get
around that question. They can lie to
the farmers from morning until night,
on the stump and off, about tin plate and
wool, but when it comes to the question
of sugar they preserve praiseworthy
and judicious silence. The Ohio farmer
knows all about sugar. He can enlight-
en- the Democracy with the information
that he can buy twenty-five pounds of
sugar for 81 this year. Last year the
twenty Ave pounds cost him exactly SO;
and he can further enlighten them with
the fact that the Mills bill--passed by a
Democratic House of Representatives
and killed by . Republican Senate-kept
the price Of the twenty-five pounds at

suffrage who reduced the twenty-five
