ITALY'S PETS.

Italy is making great diplomatic stir because an indignant and outraged public at New Orleans arose and killed eleven bloody assassins, all of whom had been born under the Italian flag. It is well known to every citizen of this land that the great mass of emigrants now coming from southern Europe, inrlud- ing the Hungarians, Boircrnfuur4 4"na Italians, are the worst this country has avar rana;,-a,-.--- upi-~y are even more objectionable than the Chinese, for they are much more troublesome. A visitor to the police courts in any of our large cities will see almost every day crimi- nals from the southern European emi- grants who are arraigned for wife beat ing, cruelty to children, or similar offen- ses. Their practice of system of peonage is well known and their mur- derous societies have become a stench in the nostrils. Yet, it is for such people as these that the Italian Government takes step next to formal declaration Uf war. In the news columns of the New York Press, of March 27. appears the following account of Italian cruelty to child in Brooklyn:
 The story of marriage that was crime came Co light m Brooklyn yesterday. The bride Is girl of II, but she does not appear to be even so old. As she told the story of the cruelty to which she had been subjected she removed her marriage ring from her finger and trampled h A.. l. wh forced her to enter the marriage state
 The child wife is Francesca Carbonne, q deli cate little Italian. Late Wednesday night Officer Allen saw girl walking along the Eastern parkway, near Prospect Park. She was crying, and seemingly in doubt about the road. He ad- ,iressed her, but she could not answer him, not knowing the English language. As a precau- tion he took her to the Bergen street police sta tOn. Captain Early secured an interpreter. The child started of to tell her story. She came rom Ita.y six months ago, her mother having died. She came alone, in response to her fathers orders. He arrived here year ago She coIa unued:
 "when l reached Brooklyn found that papa was married again. He told me must get mar. rit d, too, and he:had good husband for me. lid not know what he meant. When saw the man said l did not like him. Papa said he would kill me if said that. He had pistol in his hand. l was forced to marry the man e month after came here. His name is Giovanni Larriglio. They told the priest, Father soponara, that 1 was 20. Larrigio took me to live next door to my fathers house. He began to kick and club me day after day. wanted to run away, but was afraid they would kill me- Last Tuesday my husband left the house at dinner time. Before he went he tied me to the bed post and left me there till l2 o'clock at night l had nothing to eat or drink. Next morning, af fer he left the house, I ran away. For Gods sake don't let him take me back"
 The physician retained by the Children's So- siety said the girls body was black and blue and covered with bruises. The child was taken to the Adams street court yesterday morning, when her story was repeated to Justice Walsh. It was during its recital that she took the gold wedding ring from her finger, threw 1t on the floor and stamped on 1t. She was unable to tell where she hved. A warrant was issued for the arrest of her husband and father. Late in the afternoon officer Coschina, of the Children's Society, learned that they were in Williamsburg. He hoped to have them in jail this morning The child wife is being cared for by the society
 If Italy is desirous of going to war with America because the people of New Orleans killed few such monsters as described above, the great mass of American people would like to see her accommodated.
