ROME, March 13.-Out Of the terrible
storm Of popular anger which swept
over italy when the news of the de-
feat of the army, under Gen. Baratieri.
reached here, little remains but a feel
ing of great resentment against the
Italian commander. All rioting has
ceased. The reservists who fled from
| the country sooner than go to Africa at
| the call Of the government for the class
! Of 1872, are returning, and it is not be-
heved any steps will be taken to pun
ish them. Negotiations with King Men
! elk have been opened. 1t is anticipat
ed that peace will be concluded before
! long, and the war office has counter
manded the instructions sent to vari-
Gus points for the hurrying forward of
achievements to Africa. The new cab
met is settling down to work and the
financial situation is brighter than an
ticipated. Under these circumstances
Italy breathes freer than for some time
past, and there is feeling of graft
tude for those who have aided in Ber-
lin, during the past few days, in bring
ing about this change from blank de-
spair to great hope in the future.
The conferences which have taken
place here recently between the Mar.

the Duke Of Sermoneta, with King
Humbert, and the constant exchanges
or Geographic messages between this
city and the German capital have been
colncldent with the meetings of Berlin

affairs, Count Goluchowski, the Ger
man foreign minister Baron Marschall

dor to Germany, Count LAMA di Busca.
and the imperial chancellor. Prince
Hohenlohe, supplemented by audiences
with Emperor William. Out Of
all these exchanges of views, it is
believed, has grown much
healthier state Of affairs for all Eu-
rope. The German emperor is UNDER
stood to have been somewhat, If not en-
tirely weaned from his lodgings for
closer relations with Russia and a nos
slp!e alliance of three emperors, and the
attitude Of Germany towards Great
Britain, it is anticipated, will undergo
a change for the better.
ENGLAND'S FRIENDSHIP

report, that Great Britain, when the
situation was outlined to her from
Berlin, before the arrival there of Count

Great Britain to the dreibund a sup
port hitherto involving little else than
an irritating uncertainty is rumored
to have developed into a much more
cordial and solid understanding with
the powers forming the dreibund Both
Emperor Francis Joseph and Emperor
William are praised for this result, as
it is known that they have striven
night and day since the storm broke to
relieve the strain here, which, at one
time, was severe enough to threaten
the foundation OF the throne. In fact,
now that the crisis is over, it is ad-
mitted that King Humbert at one time
was face to face with the possibility of
! outbreaks, serious enough to develop
anything. This condition of affairs, of
course was greatly to the advantage

obtain concessions which they could
not otherwise have commanded.
TO cap the peaceful climax comes
this morning that Emperor William
OF German, Emperor Francis Joseph
or Austria and King Humbert of
Italy will meet in Genoa in a few days,
and that a series Of brilliant fetes
will mark this public proof of the
renewal of the ties which compose
the driebund, which is intended to
demonstrate to all whom it may con-
Germ that Italy, instead Of being friend
less, on the verge of bankruptcy, and
encountered by a lettering throne, is
strong in the earnest support Of Ger
many and Austria, and will be
BACKED BY GREAT BRITAIN
in any great emergency. That the
latter report is true is no longer doubt
ed here, and it is added that a Brit
lsh naval squadron will be ordered to
Genoa upon the occasion of the meet
ing OF the emperors and King Hum
pert, In order to openly demonstrate
Great Brftain's sympathy with Italy
and the dreibund. Finally it is said
mat before the emperors meet at
Genoa, Emperor Francis Joseph will
have succeeded in entirely reconciling
queen Victoria with her imperial
grandson, and SO the peace of Eu-
rope, 1T is hoped will be further ce-
mented, and the possibility Of an Eu-
ropean war will be driven further and
further into the background
Orders have been sent from the war
office to Massowah that the reports of
Gems. Baldissera and Baratieri on the
defeat of the Italians at Adowa, are to
be supplemented by the forwarding to
this city Of a number of important
witnesses of the engagement 1t was
at first intended to court-martial Gen.
Baratieri at Massowah in fact, that
plan had not been entirely abandoned
but there were so many utterances of
disapproval in the press that
it is understood that Gen. Ri
cotti has decided to have the unfor-
tunate officer tried in public, and in
this city. There is a strong effort
however, among military men to have
the trial conducted in secret, as it
is feared that revelations may be made
which will not tend to strengthen the
case of italy before the world. But
the general public demands publicity
in the matter, and 1t is believed the
war authorities will have to bow to
the popular will.
