INDIGNANT ITALIANS.
The Local Colony VIII Condemn the
Crime in Mass.Meetinp.

A profound sentiment of Indignation at
the brutal assassination Of President
Carnot has manifested itself in the Italian
colony of this city. This feeling is ali the
more intense as the perpetrator of the
dastardlY crime is said 10 have been an
Italian.
The feeling will be crystalllized into reso-
lutiOns, which will be adopted at a mass
meeting of Italians to be held a. o'clock
tonight at Garibaldi Hall, 423 Broadway
1t was decided to hold this meeting yes
terday morning. j. Calegaris visited the
leading Italian merchants Of this city, and
together they decided on calling a meeting
for the time stated. The following notice
was published 10 all the Italian papers:
Italiansl a wretch, crazy or anarchist, arm
ing himself with the weapon of cowards-the
p0niard-struck TO death the President of the
French republic, and threw into sorrow and
grt-f a whole nation. To protest against this
Infamous act is a sacred duty of every honest
man, no matter OF what social or political
grade. To protest against The assassination OF
Carnot is an absolute duty among Italians, be-
cause in this pal nful circumstance they say,
unhappily, that the assassin belongs to our
nationality.
Italians, unconsciously, sOemnly and gen.
orally, your protest must arise from our colony
and We shall show to the French nation the
horror and disaDprobation caused among us
by the barbarous act committed against that
people. All should attend o-norrow the mass
meeting to be held 10 Garlbaldi Hall, 423
Broadway.
This is the address decided upon by the
committee. The comm tee is composed
Of the foremost men in the Italian colony
and their position in the matter indicates
the altitude of the Italian colony. The
committee, in fact, consists of G. Gale

L'ltalia, the leading journal of the
Italian colony, yesterday expressed the
opinion of the colony in forcible editorial,
which has the ring Of sincerity in il. II
reads:
In our colony the news of the assassination
OF Carnot created sense OF dismay succeeded
by The most profound and sincere Indignation.
III Crispi or any other illustrious Italian
statesman had fallen under the knife OF an
assassin the grief could not be more intense
To show bow general is the mourning for the
loss suffered by France and how condemned is
tie crime of the anarchist our colony will hold
Tomorrow mass-meeiing and from the favor
with which everybody has accepted this idea
we can foresee that the meeting will b. an
imposing one. The Italian colony expresses a
unanimous Imprecation against the assassin.
In this instance the anarchists have succeeded,
and instead OF plain bourgeois their victim is
the immaculate man who guided the destinies
of one OF the greatest OF nations Other presl-
dents and soyeregns have fallen 10 this last
twenty years under the hand of the assassin
but the crime was always-excepting in Rus
Subcommittee by man who acted on his sole
responsibility and under the impulse OF i'm
aginary wrongs or political passion. In
