ITALIAN PARLIAMENT OPENED.
King Humbert's Address Promises Re-
trenchmenr anu Reform.

Rome. June 10.-The new Italian parlia-
ment was opened today with great cere-
mony by King Humbert. The city was
decorated for the occasion and huge
crowds of people assembled TO witness the
arrival OF the senators and deputies. King
Humbert and Queen Margherita were en-
Enthusiastically cheered as they drove
through the streets. which were lined with
troops. His majesty took his seat upon
the throne with the customary ceremonies
and In his speech said:
The Italian people have so clearly
manifest Ell their opinion the polls that
no doubt remains regarding tie questions
which require the Trornotest discussion
by the assembly. Tae -. ople recognize
that the finances OF Italy occupy the
foremost place IN this connection. .'rd
that the stristest retrenchintnt of the
expenditures IS necessary in order 10 raise
Italys credit abroad. Parliament Will
then be asked 10 devote Gtsei[ 10 the
important question o. communal
finances and administration. and TO judi
cial reforms"
His majesty also said that he trusted
that this parliament's legislation would do
much TO draw together the various classes
OF the population. Continuing. King Hum
bert oWelt at length upon the friendship
existing between Italy and Great Britain.
and upon their cooperation in Africa add
Ing that the policy OF Italy IN AfriC a hence
forth would be one OF consolidation OF her
possessions. and not of adventure. His ma.
jesty concluded with remarking that he rel
lied upon the efforts of the members Of
parliament TO maintain the edifice of ma
tional unity erected by his fatheg, Victor
Emanuel
The kings speech was greatly applauded
on all sides and there were repeated cheers
for his majesty. Only the Socialists were
absSnt from the opening OF parliament
London. June 10.-A dispatch TO the
Standard from Rome says: Queen Mar
gherita arrived in parliament a few
minutes before King Humbert reached
the throne. She wore a costume OF
ivory satin and a bonnet of white and
gold with diamond pin ornaments. She
was given an unusually cordial reception.
and was obliged TO bow repeatedly be-
fore taking her seat. The Prince OF
Naples stood at her right hand, and the
Count of Turin at the left of her throne.
Premier CTispi advanced from the group
of ministers. and after taking the kings
order read the oath OF allegiance.
A dispatch TO the Times from Rome
says the speech of King Humbert from
the throne made an excellent Impression,
and has greatly improved the position of
the ministry. According to the CORE
spondent at Rome Sig. CavalIoti, the
well-known Radical leader, has aban-
doned all attempts to involve Premier
CFisDi in the financial scandals.
