CAN'T SATISFY ITALY.
The Men Lynched May Have Been
NaturaIized Citizens.


Washington, Aug. 15.-Baron Fava, the
Italian ambassador, called at the state de-
partment this morning, having come from
Bar Harbor for that purpose, and had
long interview with Acting Secretary
Rockhil regarding the lynching of three
Italians in Louisiana last Saturday night,
which has lead to much excitement m
Italy. The ambassador had received d
partial report from Consul Pahini, at New
Orleans, and was able to assert rather
positively that the lynched men were
italians.
The state department has not yet re-
ceived the statement from the governor of
Louisiana, regarding the affair, and Sec
retary ROckhill was, therefore, not in a
position to concede that the men might
not have been naturalized, in which case
Italy could not undertake an interest, nor
could any definite assurance be given the
ambassador pending the investigation, ex-
cept that ample redress might be conf
IDENTIFY expected if facts warranted it, as
has been made in the New Orleans AMI
Colorado riots.
Baron Fava, on leaving the department
expressed himself as confident of a sat
isfactory outcome to the affair, which ne
declared could not be dignified by the
term incident" and that in his opinion
nothing was likely to disturb the very
cordial relations always existing between
this government and his own.
Baron FaVa will remain in Washington
until some conclusion is reached.

BRYAN AND HIS SPEECH.
He Denies the Report That 1t Had
Been Blue PenciIed.


Nominee Bryan spent quiet, unevent-
full day at the residence Of John Brisben
Walker. the editor of the Cosmopolitan,
at Irvington-on-the-IIl efae With him,
as guests of Mr. Walker, are Mr. Arthur
Sewall, the vice presidential nominee, and
Mrs. Bryan.
John w. Outright, formerly Of Lincoln,
but recently of Galveston, was to-day ap-
pointed Mr.. Bryan's private secretary.
Mr.. Bryan this evening gave out the fol-
lowing statement relative to the prepara-
ton of his speech of acceptance:
1he speech was written in Nebra ska.
From the beginning 1 expected to read it
put was almost persuaded to abandon the
IDEA after left home. Some insisted that
the reading would be a disappointment to
the people present. l appreciated the
aoIGe aYl OF tne suggestion, but finally con-
cluded that 1t would be better to disap-
point, those who listened, than to risk an
UNFAIR or partial report by the opposition
press. In writing the speech l did NOT
propose TO follow the plan of any former
speech, but made no attempt to avoid ar
guments or illustrations previously en-
ployed in discussing the money question
my sole aim was to crowd as much ma
terlal as possible into the speech without
making II too long, therefore [ tried 10 he
br1ef in statements. 1t was rewritten
two or three times as new noints
OF new arguments suggested themselves
one copy was brought with me- and one
was sent by express to provide against
loss. Two paragraphs which occurred to
me on the train were added to the speech
after / reached New York ONLY two
persons saw the speech after my arrival.
and they suggested no changes"
Mr. Bryan further said that in future
editions of his Chicago speech the ouo-
tatton marks will be omitted from the
sentence comparing the metal support
Of Gross of gold" 1t was a mistake. he
said, to enclose the sentence in guota-
tion marks, as the words were not quot
ed from any one else.

Augusta, Ca, Aug. l5.-Hon. Hoke
Smith, Secretary OF the Interior. reply
ing to an invitation to attend the Bryan
sewall ratification meeting at Augusta.
after expressing regret that he cannot
be present, says:
ITO opinions which then expressed
on the financial question l stan adhere;
but 1 also had occasion then to say that

ton named candidates for President and
Vice President no matter what might be
the action of the convention upon the
financial question. all democrats should
support the nominees. This position then
believed to be correct, and / am pre-
pared to sustain it with equal sincerity
now The democratic party does not con-
fine its platform TO a single issue, nor will
ats power TO serve people cease with the
solution Of that issue. 1t stands for just
taxation, for suppression OF monOpolies
and trusts, for government according to
the terms of the constitution, for the
With us Georgians, IL also stands for
honesty and capacity I'm the management
OF our state and county affairs, for a de-
Tense Of property, home and person.
THE democrat who fails 70 vote for the
national democratic ticket strikes a blow
at the democratic state organization.
L urge each democrat to vote for Bryan
and Sewall, although he may have In no
way participated In the selection of dele
gates TO the Chicago convention. l can
scarcely feel that it Is necessary to urge
support from those Georgians who took
part in the selection OF the delegates. For
myself / consider that my action when

WILL QUARANTINE THE TUG.
The DauntIess to Be Treated as In
fected Vessel on Her Return.

Brunswick. Ca, Aug. 15.--The only new
developments in the Dauntless flibustering
trip to-day, was Instructions from Sur
geon General Wyman to the quarantine
officer to detain the Dauntless on her re-
turn and treat her as vessel from an in
fected port.
The order also contained instructions to
the collector of customs not to enter her
without proper observance of quarantine
rules and regulations.
This order also imposed the same re-
strictions on the tug Inca but as the Inca
is in port doing tow work, and is not
known to have been away from port ex-
cept possibly to transfer coal few miles
outside to waiting vessels, the order as
affects her may have been issued under
a nisapprehension of facts regarding her
connection with the expedition.

Jacksonville, Fla. Aug. 15.-The steamer
Three Friends left Jacksonville last night,
presumably on a flibustering trip to Cuba
1t IS said that a great quantity OF num-
tions was in the hold OF the vessel, COW
cred by coal.
At o'clock this morning the Three
Friends reported al the mouth Of the St.
Johns river and tried to cross the bar but
found the passage barred by the United
States revenue cutter Boutwell,. Capt.
Kilgore ordered the Three Friends to
come to, and the order was obeyed. A
lieutenant was then sent on board the
Three Friends. The suspected hlibuster
has remained at the bar all day in charge
of the lieutenant, and it IS not known
when she will be released.
This afternoon the cutter Boutwell,
came up to Jacksonville from the bar.
Capt. Kilgore of the Boutwell, and Capt.
n. b. Broward of the Three Friends
were at once brought ashore. Capt. Bro
ward was asked if he was under arrest.
and he said he was not. He was then
asked where was the Three Friends, and
he said down the river and the mate in
charge. He also said an officer of the
cutter was in charge of the tug, and had
Mate Lewis Of the tug under arrest. Capt.
Broward did not think that there will be
any trouble, as he emphatcally said, Il
have nothing on board except coal and
ship stores"
On the steamship Seminole, which ar
rived this morning from New York and
Charleston, were twenty-five Cubans, who
boarded the vessel at Charles ton, and who
were to have been put off at Mayport,
where it is presumed they were to make
connection with the Three Friends this
morning. The captain of the Boutwell,
has knocked the scheme in the head, and
instead Of landing the men, the Seminole
had to bring them up to the city. At
the dock they were met by DIR. j. L. RO-
nero and other Cuban sympathiZers, ana
We're taken from the vessel to some place
in the city. They We're all fine looking
men, and were well supplied with bag

the men who have been in Charleston for
some time waiting for the Commodore
expedition, which has been held in check
and kept from going to sea by the revenue
cutter Colfax.
Charleston, S. c., Aug. B.-The steamer
Commodore, which has been lying in this
harbor for some time loaded with arms
and ammunition and watched by the
revenue cutter COlfaX, went to sea at noon
to-day, closely pursued by the cutter.
About 4:3O o'clock the Commodore and
the cutter returned to the harbor, and
anchored in about the same positions
they had left. No information could be
gathered out of the government officials
or the Commodore people as to what hap
pened at sea-.
The Commodore led in the race out and
back.

THE DAIRY.
BUTTER.

Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer.
Perhaps every one who has ever
made butter has been troubled with
this at some time. The cause Of the
notified condition which is frequently
seer in butter is a disputed one, yet it
is simple enough for all.
AS we all know salt effects the color
of butter. All butter takes on e deeper
hue when it has been sailed a few hours.
Take a lot of butter from the chUn in
a mass, salt it in streaks by cutting
down through it with the ladle and
scattering salt freely where the ladle
went, let it stand half a day before
working and you will see a good illus
tration Of notified butter. In a few
words the e~xplation is this: Notified
butter is caused by Uneven distribution
Of salt, nothing Q nor less.
To avoid this the following plan is
an excellent one, end che which IS fol
lowed by many of u best butter max
ers to-daY.
Leave the butter in grenules, wash
with water cold enough to prevent ad-
hesion, drain and salt while still ID the
churn, then revoIve the churn or tip
from side to side until the butter
glo6ules mass somewhat and the salt
is evenly distributed.
By tipping the churn n wey then
the other, the salt may be very evenly
sprinkled on, or a wooden fork of 6ulC
able size may be used to stir il up, add
ing only g portion of the salt at q time.
The salt melts or dissolves the mo
ment it touches the grains Of butter
and each grain is Instantly coated with
brine. Then when the butter has drained
a few minutes remove it to the worker,
press until moderately dry end pack
away. No further working is neces
sary, and there will be no trace Of
streaks or a notified condition to be
found.
Sailing in the churn is sur5 to be a
favorite method with those who try it.
The amount of butter can be very
closely estimated as the amount from
a given quantity Of cream does not
vary very materially from time to
time. Nor is it essential to weigh out
the salt each time. Measure out a
pound of salt, usually a full pint of
salt will weigh a pound, and it is more
quickly measured than weighed each
time.
Some adhere very ten8ciously to the
old way Of twice working their butter,
but once is a great plenty. If the selt
is evenly distributed and the excess of
moisture pressed out that is sufi yient
and can as well be done at one opera
ton as at two. w. c. ROCKwOOD.

LIVE STOCK.
FRENCH CATTLE EXCLUDED.

The French Government has made a
formal protest against the retaliatory
action of this government in putting
an absolute embargo on French cattle.
A recent Associated Press dispatch
from Havre announced that the UaitCd
States Consul had refused to permit a
shipment of five French cattle to the
United States. This rigid enforcement
of the prohibition Of importation Of
meat cattle and their hides from coun-
tries infected with cattle diseases, in,
Guiding France, Germany and Switzar-
land, which is provided for in the tariff
act of 1891 but not invoked until seven
months ago, when q proclamation on
the subject was issued, is directly due
to the aggressive policy of countries
like France and Germany in endeavor-
ing on n pretext Or another to ex-
clude American cattle and meats.
