INDEMNITY FOR ITALY.
Uncle Sam willing 20 Pay 10000 Frame
as an Evidence of Good Will.

Uncle Sam willing TO Pay 100, 900 Francs
as an Evidence of Good VIII.
INDIANAPOLIS, March 3O-The friends Of
Governor Porter have reason 10 believe that
he viii return in a short time to his post in
Rome as United States minister 10 Italy.
News received here from Washington indi-
Gates that the administration is willing to
pay 20 the relatives of the men murdered
by the New Orleans mob, whose Italian
citizenship has been proved, the sum Of l0O,
600 francs as indemnity.
The payment Of this sum, it is under
stood, is to be accompanied by declaration
which viii make it plain to the government
of Italy that this act on the part Of the
United States is in nowise 10 be considered
as an acknowledgment of it's obligation or
liability for the failure Of the local authori-
ties in New Orleans to protect lives Of Italian
citizens, but as an evidence rather Of the
good will and friendliness Of feeling which
have always characterized the relations of
the United States government with that OF
Italy.
In this respect the proposed payment OF
the indemnity resembles closely the action
Of congress in appropriating, upon the recon.
mendation of Mr.. Bayard, then secretary OF
state, the sum Of $4,000 for the benefit Of
the relatives Of the victims Of the Rocb
| Springs massacre. At the time this sum
was handed 10 the Chinese minister he wa
/ given TO understand that the action of con
gress was not to be looked upon in the light
Of establishing precedent. With a similar
reservation the sum Of 1000 francs OF $50
900 viii be handed over to the government
of Italy.
Il is understood that in this case congress
will not be called upon to appropriate the
sum, but that the contingent fund Of the
state department, which is quite large, is L
be drawn upon. This will save time anc
enable the administration to act promptly
/ in the matter.
= Minister Porter while not at liberty tC
discuss the subject of the indemnity, is be
lieved 10 be heartily in favor Of an early
settlement Of the question and the prompt
re-establishment of the friendly relations
formerly existing between the two govern
ments. His friends declare that he is anx
/ ious to return to his post

GAS STOVES

Are invaluable aud should be Investigated
by careful housekeepers
About ], 200 are in use In this city and
the number would be greatly increased ~
their merits were fully understood.
AS Cookers" they are unrivRlled and
are far superior to c,al or wood stoves In
cooking meats or vegetables.
As Water Heaters" and 'Ironers" they
are most useful, especially when the
weather is too warm to use the ordinary
stove OF range.
AS heating apparatus that can be moved
from room TO pom In few minutes by the
housekeeper they are most convenient.
As assistant heaters In rooms where
furnace or steam heat will not ascend on
the windward side they have gwen great
satisfaction.
AS permanent heaters In rooms that
cannot be reached by heating hues they
have given much comfort.
As intermittent heaters, where heat Is
wanted only An hour or two ~ time,
they are economical.
For offices and stores, when the weather
Is rather warm for furnace fires. they may
prevent sickness.
For spring aud autumn use, when mild
days make furnace fres oppressive, trou-
blesome and expensive, they are comfort
able and economical.
As fires that can be started in a minute
and extinguished in less time, they are
most satisfactory.
AS heaters that avoid ASHES, COAL
GAS and DUST. they are valued by pru-
dent housekeepers.
Modern Gas Stoves are not only useful
but are ornamental.
The gas, the stoves, the fixtures aud the
putting in are inexpensive.
Samples and descriptions can be seer
