Italy's Complaint of Dslay Thrown
Back at Her.
PARIS, April 2O.-Baron Fava, the Italian
minister at Washington, who recently left
the United States on leave of absence,
has arrived here on his way to Rome The
SOtel declares that the baron is much an
noyed at the action Of the United States in
regard 20 the New Orleans affair. Accord
ing to that paper Baron Fava, while on his
way across the Atlantic, assured his fellow
passengers that the Marquis Imperiali.
charge dafaires at Washington, would be
recalled TO Italy. The baron is said to have
added that Italy would not have diplo-
matte representative at Washington until
the New Orleans affair was settled.
ROMAN PAPERS COMPLAINING.
ROME, April 20.-The newspapers Of this
city are complaining bitterly Of what they
term the "leisurely manner of Secretary
Blaine in replying TO the communications Of
the Italian government relative the New
Orleans affair. They seem to forget in
Italy that using the usual means Of COM
munication between the governments
and tho United States to exchange
communications. They also seem to forget
that the United States has just as good
grounds for complaint against the Italian
government as the papers claim the latter
has against the American Secretary OF
State. Take, for instance, the case Of the
Italian Salvatore Paladina. The American
government demanded that this offender
against the laws of the United States
who lnl HnH Itolu ha
tradited to stand trial upon a
charge Of counterfeiting. The italian gov
ernment, two weeks after the receipt of
this demand, asked the American legation
here what citizenship Paladina claimed,
whether American or italian. In response
to this question, the American legation
stated on the same day that the request for
Information was received that Paladina
claimed to be an Italian subject.
NOT HEARD FROM IN TWO MONTHS.
This was the last heard Of the matter for
two months, when. in answer to the United
States governments request for the extra
dition Of Paladina, the Italian government
stated that the constitution and laws Of
Italy did not allow for tho carrying out of
the treaty existing between Italy and the
United States, 30 for as the extradition
OF Italians was concerned. Italy
again took this position relative to the
Italian constitution and laws when the
United States subsequently demanded the
eXtradition of two Italians who we're impli-
Gated inthe murder Of Paymaster Mcclure
and Hugh Flanagan, near Wilkesbarre,
Pa, who were killed and robbed of money
which the paymaster had to pay laborers,
and for which crime a third italian
was convicted and executed by the Penn
sylvanian authorities. His two accomplices
made their escape from the United States
a ,As.v-s - al.
ernment refused TO surrender them for trial,
basiug It's refusal on tho ground that it
would be extra unconstitutional to surrender
Italian subjects for trial in a foreign coun-
try.
NOT BELIEVED AT WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, April 20.-Baron Favas
alleged strtement in Paris. that the Marquis
lmperiali and the rest of the Italian lega-
ton would bs withdrawn from Washington,
is not credited here. 1t is believed either
that Baron Fava did not state it as q Ger
tainty, and that il he did he was talking
without having seen a report of Premier
Rudini's last speech. No more hostile dem
onstrations from Premier Rudini are looked
for here. Minister Porter cables that Pre-
mier Rudini's temper seems now to be as
pacific as it was formerly belligerent. Sec
retary Blaine said before he left: al think
we shall get very little more impertinence
from the Marquis di Rudini."
HARRIsoN's JEALOUSY.
Russell Harrison's statement in his weekly
paper that the President aud not the Sec
retary Of State is entitled to the credit for
the Italian correspondence is only n lit tie
more frank than other inspired paragraphs
published less conspicuously ia the
Harrison newspaper. They are justi-
fed by the fact that the President deliber-
atelY rejected the first draft Of the COM
munications proposed by Secretary Blaine,
and required the latter to act as his
amanuenss by preparing substitutes at his
dicJation. In the case of the latest COM
munication to Premier Rudni. a weeks
delay was caused by this course, which was
necessary Of course, If President Harrison
was to have credit for the transaction.
THE NEW ORLEANS INVESTIGATION.
The department OF justice is in
receipt Of letter from District
Attorney William Grant at New ORE
leans, who was requested by the department
to ascertain the nationality of the Italians
who were killed there last month, the cir
cumstances under which they came to this
country, etc. The district attorney says he
has encountered much more difficulty In
getting at some Of the particulars in the case
than he had anticipated, which has resulted
in delaying his report These particulars
refer to the nationality OF the men. He has
made request Of the department for csr-
tain information in connection with the
matter.
