1he New Orleans Incident Closeo

LONDON, April IA. A dispatch from
Rome says series OF notes have passed
between Blaine and Marquis Imperial,
Italian charge d'affaires, at Washington,
resulting in a settlement of the differences
between Italy and the United States grow
ing out CT the lynching Of Italians in New
Orleans. According to this dispatch,
Marquis Imperial advised the Italian gov
erument he had received from the United
States S25, coo for the families of the vic
tins. This money, the marquis adds, is
accompanied by a note from Blaine in
which he declared although wrong was
not committed directly by the United
States, the latter, nevertheless, feels a
solemn duty in the premises. The note
adds, Blaine declares he feels great pleas
ure that the government should pay Italy a
satisfactory indemnity In consequence
of these instructions given Blaine
by Harrison, the latter hopes
the arrangement will end the unfortunate
incident; that the former good relations
between the two countries will be firmly
re established; that nothing in the future
will occur TO disturb such relations. In his
note replying to Blaine communication,
Imperiali says Italy already With pleasure
has noted the terms in which Harrison re-
ferred to the matter in his message at the
opening of Congress. The marquis further
says Italy considers the indemnity suf1i-
cient without prejudice to any action at
law that may be brought by the aggrieved
parties. He also expresses the hope the
payment of the indemnity will result in a
happy re-establishment of relations be-
tween the governments.
