1T WILL lNJURE ITALY,
American Prohibition of Immigration
Not FaEcied.

american Prohibition of Immigr att ON
Not FaEcied.
ROME, Dec. 30.-Mr. Potter, the
American minister, had an interview
with Sig. Brin, the minister Of foreign
affairs, before being received by King
Humbert. Sig. Brin took occasion to
congratulate Mr.. Potter on the felicitous
relations between Italy and America and
the happy settlement of all difficulties
that had formerly existed. The sub
ject Of immigration restrictions was not
touched, the interview being of for
NAL and Introductory character, but it
is reported that the Italian government
is extremely concerned about the meas
ures already taken and contemplated in
regard to the restrictions upon immi-
grafton to America.
Although not openly avowed, it is
understood that this solicitude is largely,
if not chiefly, of a financial character
as Italy receives a very large inflow of
money from the emigrants in America
and stoppage of the traffic would
nave seriously appreciate eff
feet. Thousands of Italians who
have become affluent in America,
have returned to Italy and helped to
increase the prosperity of their native
land. The constant current of going
and returning immigration has bere-
ticial effect in Italy, besides the fnan-
clal, as the returning e1nigrants have
usually become trained and enlightened
by their contact with American clviliza-
ton and make much better Italian sub
jects.
This is very important matter to the
districts of Southern Italy and Sicily,
where the native population has been
almost brutalized by centuries of
dospotic oppression. In Northern Italy
the emigration question is not so press
ing, as there is less disposition to emil
CRATE, but the closing of American ports
to the large emigration from Southern
Italy would be felt as a calamity
throughout all the kingdom.
1t IS believed that Italy will demand
that at least no discrimination shall be
made against Italian enaigrants to the
United States, but that they shall be
treated on par with other emigrants.
Minister Potter has leased the Antici
Matetei Palace for his occupation dur
ing his term of service. 1t il notably

ORLEANISTS ARE ACTIVE.
Evidently Planning an Attack on the French
Government.

LONDON, Dec. 31.-The Orleanists
have by no means abandoned the hope
of regaining the throne Of France
through revulsion in Republican sem
timent, caused by the revelations in
the Panama affair. What the present
intentions of the Orleanists are 1t will
be hard to say, but it is evident
that come project is contemplated that
is intended to lead to the oyerturning
of the Republic and the establishment
of monarchy. The Count of Paris
has telegrapbed to his son, the
Duke Of Orleans, who is now travelling
in Indo-China, to hasten his re-
turn in order that he may take part
in the deliberations Of the Orleans
party. In English circles it is be-
lieved there is no chance of the machi-
nations of the French Royalists and
Imperialists proving successful. 1t is
thought that the French government,
by pursuing those implicated in the
Panama scandal to punishment will es-
tablish the Republic on a sounder
foundation than before. and will render
such an evil as the Panama affair here
after impossible,
