OFIEN WINK At LAWLESSNESS.
Gov. Ware's Reply TO Baron Favn's Re-
quest for Information.


DENVER, Aug. 22.-It Is possible that Italy
may be offended at the offhand manner In
which Gov. Waite lately replied to the inquiry
Of Baron Fava. the Italian Minister at Wash
inGton. regarding the expulsion Of his coun-
trymen from Cripple Creek. The inquiry OF
Baron Fava was forwarded to the Governor
through Secretary Gresham. who courteously
asked the Chief Executive OF Colorado for
an explanation. or such statement as could
be made. in answer to the alleged insult
offered the italian Government by the action
OF the Cripple Crock miners.
Gov. Waite replied that while he personally
might not endorse such action. he still under
stood the spirit OF the West sufficiently to say
that the officers Of the law. by reason Of their
circumstances. often had to wink at what
would not otherwise be allowed: and that in
fact he did not soc that anything could be
done in the matter. Secretary Gresham was
evidently shocked that the chief Executive Of
the State should seemingly connive ct law
lessness, and sent a letter to the Governor
which was received this morning. The con-
tents OF tho letter kept secret. but it is I'M
derstood that Secretary Gresham has forcibiy
reminded the fery Governor of his duties in
the latter.
