PAYMENT OF $3.50
sMooTHES DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
UNITED STATES AND ITALY.

Brought About by the New Orleans Mas.
sacre-The Money to BE Divided Be.
tween the Heirs of Three Victims.
WASHINGTON, April 15.-Inquiry in this
city confirms the statement coming from
Rome thata complete and amicable set
Element has been reached in the interna-
tional difficulties between the United
States and Italy, growing out of the New
Orleans tragedy. 1t appears that the
government of the United States has vol
unfairly taken the initiative in closing the
breach, aud without committing itself to
the recognition of any claim for indem
nifty, but simply as an act OF justice and
from motives of comfy, has placed in the
hands of the Marquis Imperiali, the Ital
ian charge d'affaires here, the sum of 1885,
600 francs, or sos, 900, for distribution
among the heirs of the three Italians who
were killed at New Orleans and were
found to be subjects of the Italian govern
ment
1t was understood that the money was
taken from the annual appropriation of
$50, 600 to enable the president to provide
for unforeseen emergencies in the diplO-
matte and consular service, so that it will
be necessary to call upon congress for a
specific appropriation. BY this action on
part of the United States government the
disagreeable complications in the rela-
tions of the two governments, it is be-
lieved, have been removed, and within
short time the diplomatic relations be-
tween them will be restored to the AMIGA
bic status existing before the New Or
leans tragedy, Minister Porter returning
to Rome and minister from Italy taking
up his residence in Washington.

JACKSON, Miss, April 15.-The floods on
the banks of the Tombigbee have created
the greatest havoc and desolation in the
neighborhood of Columbus. In Lowndes,
Monroe and Noxubee counties, thousands
of families have been reduced to poverty
and want, while over 1000 have been rem
dered absolutely homeless. A conserya-
tive estimate of the number of lives lost
places the number at fifty, all of whom,

Chicago Banks victimiged by q Firm Of
Young Men Assi.tcd by - Dishonest
Bank Oliccr.
CHICAGO, Aug. 8.-The fight OF George
Bartels, paying teller Of the Central
Trust & Savings bank. with the com
paratively Insignificant SUN OF $4,000 OF
the banks cash, has uncarthcd what
seem to have been an extensive con-
spiracy to dcfraud five Chicago banks.
The scheme was partly successful and
over $50, 900 was secured from Bartcls'
former employers, but has since been
made good. Another bank Ia said 10
have lost $50, 900, which amount was al
80 made good.
Three men formerly connected with
the Chicago Bank Note Co. have been
arrested charged with conspiracy to de-
fraud and the issuance OF fraudulent
paper. These are William Forbes, N.
W. burnside and Charles NJ. Anson.
Bartels was the fourth man.
Charles Nichols, = g~o.between, has
made afiidavits which purports to ex-
, pose the whole scheme. A bill in chan
Gerry asking for the appointment of a
receiver of the bank note sonccrn, filed
by John Il. GRIZZLIES, former president of
the company, also throws light upon
the methods used.
Forbes was q manager OF the Chicago
Bank Note Co.; burnside, the son Of a
we'll known physician. was associated
with Forbes. Arson was but an EN-
ploye Of the firm. These young men
were vouched for by Gen. Allen c.
Fuller and numerous men of wealth
and financial influence, who appear u
have trusted them fully, owing to their
connection with young Burnside. They
opened accounts with the Central Trust
6 Savings bank, the Globe National
bank. the State Bank Of Chicago, the
First National bank and the Milwau.
kee Avenue State bank. Immediately
they deposited checks, drafts,
etc, which it is claimed have
since been found TO bc fraudulent,
and later drew out the cash. BY col.
fusion with Bartels, the greater part OF
the paper was dumped on the Central
Trust 81 Savings bank. The teller. In
the absence of the cashier, certified all
paper and forged drafts, checks, etc.
Ncte ohiy ocPoo'Ico "hc" INV "iSht'
officials Of the bank were out 1t Is
said that the p!otters intended to pull
all the banks they had deposited money
with into their net and then break up
and clear out, but the paper came tc
protest too soon.
According to Nichols affidavit, the
conspirators systematically wincd
dined and clothed Bartels, besides pay
ing the expenses of the teller and his
friends nightly at the houses of illfame
Bartels disarncd suspicion by in
genuously warning the bank officials
that he was suspicious that the mott
company was hitting" and suggeste,
that IA general guarantee Of all trans
actions be secured from wealthy DIR

The New Eight-Hour Law Likely To De-
feat itself-It Reaches Too Far.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 3-The Tarsney
cight-hour law in its application to all
government contracts went into effect
yesterday and IL has already raised n
serious question for the law officers of
the United States. According to the
construction placed upon II in the treas
ury department 1t will practically pre-.
VEN the construction Of n federal build
ing in the United States until every
mine owner, q~uarryman, owner of n
lumber camp, saw mill, rolling mill and
brick yard in the country adopt eight
hours as n days work for its employees.
The law requires that In every contract
awarded the contractors shall be re.
CURED to adopt the eight hour system
in the employment Of men and, further
than this, must use no material which
has been prepared under any other plan
of labor. If he has the contract for cut
ting and setting the stone work his ma.
terial must be secured from q quarry
employing men eight hours only each
day and be paid u full days wages
for such employment. His stone cut
tiers are placed on the same basis.
Bricks used must be made in brick
yards where the laborcrs are paid for a
full days work for eight hours labor.
In structure, iron and interior finishing
the same rules apply and according TO
treasury officials 1t will be necessary
for the contractor to secure a bond from
each person from whom he purchases
material that it has been prepared I'M
der the eight hour system.
1t is a question not yet fully an.
swered whether or not IL will be ncces-
sary to go back as far as mines and the
lumber woods to secure absolutely
compliance with the law, but the i'm.
preston prevails that it will be.
