DISTURBANCES IN SICILY,
A Slight Improvement in the situa.
ton ReDOrted.

"A the Sttua.
ton Reported.
Palermo, Sicily, has been filled with ru-
mors since Saturday morning that an at
tempt will be made to mob the prisons
and release Deputy Giuseppe de Felice, the
socialist leader. Saturday night therefore
the guard at the prison was increased, but
there was no sign of an approaching at
tack on the building. A renewal of the at
tempt to cut the cable from Palermo to
Italy has caused Gen. Nora di Lavriano,
commander-in-chief in Sicily, to put
mounted guards at the cable landing.
The expected decree postponing the ma
turity of bills of exchange was published
yesterday. Measures prolonging the periods
Of agrarian contracts in Sicily are said
to be impending. Premier Crispi has re-
ceived both from Sicily and the mainland
many kilograms and letters congratulating
him upon his energetic policy and espe-
cially upon the arrests of Deputy de Felice
and other high members of the Easel Del
Laboratori.
The result of the general serach by
the police is said to be the discov-
cry of plot, in which Deputy de Felice
is concerned with foreign anarchists or
socialists. A letter from the socialist exile
Cipriani. was found in box from the
house of De Felice. In 1t Cipriani urged
De Felfce to conffne his work to Sicily, as
he himself would take care of the socialist
movement in central Italy.
About $50 anarchists began parading the
streets last evening with red flags and
revolutionary banners. Many of them
shouted "Hurrah for the revolution" When
they were ordered by the police to dispense
one of them fired revolver The police
charged and the anarchists tried to stand
their ground. During the fight policeman
was stabbed in the arm. Three anarchists
were arrested and the rest were put to
flight.
The anarchists in Naples gathered in the
street, some two hundred men shouting
Down with the taxes: hurrah for the revo-
lutionr' They were dispersed with little
difficulty. after having injured but one per-
son.
The socialist deputies. Agnini, Ferri and
Prampolini, started for Palermo last even
ing with the avowed intention Of declaring
their disapproval of the revolt and exhort-
ing the people to restore peace to the
island

The News of the Auckland Dispatcl
Was True.

The News of the Auckland Dispatch
Was True.
A press dispatch from San Francisco sent
last night says:
Capt Munger of the Corwin, said to a re-
porter last night that the Auckland dispatch
which stated that Minister Willis had made
a formal demand fo- the surrender of the
provisional government was true.
Capt Munger said his official position
would not allow him to impart any further
Information. and on that account his lips
were sealed. He refused to state whether or
not there had been any trouble in Honolu-
lu. or whether the Corwin was the bearer Of
President Doles reply to Minister Willis
The attitude Of Capt Munger of the Cor
win toward the representatives OF the pub
lie In general is without a precedent in this
port. From the moment the Co-win arrived
the men on board have been as Inaccessible
as II they were in mid ocean save for the
brief interview with Capt. Munger OF last
night when the captain went ashore in his
gig TO mail packet of letters.
Inc captain saw mt TO go ashore with the
letters himself rather than to trust a mes
few minutes that the Corwin's captain talk
ed with a reporter and verified the correct
ness of the Auckland cablegram He also
stated that the Corwin left Honolulu De-
cember "a.
The reporter quotes Capt Munger as fol-
lows: Il can tell you no more than came in
that Auckland dispatch. 1t is no pleasure
for me to hold news and information from
the people but then You must remember
that / am poweriess in the matter myself.
Even II knew the contents of the secret
dispatches, as an officer and gentleman I
could not reveal them without permission
