where bolt after bolt seemed TO strike

of a marker more than a dozen bolts
we're located as striking in apparently

Identity of American Girl and Ital-
ian Nobleman Concealed

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. April H.
Much speculation has arisen over the
identity of the parties concerned in
a diplomatic correspondence between
the American and Italian Govern
ments in 1905 in regard to the ltal-
ian marriage laws. .....
This correspondence was publish
ed today, but further than stating
that the young woman was the
daughter of an American of unques-
toned standing in the community
and the Italian was a nobleman, no
other clews are given as to the iden-
tlty of the parties. Nothing is in
cluded to show what success the Gov
eminent had in the role of cupid.
The correspondence began on jan
uary "a, 1906, when Acting Secre-
tary of State Bacon had letter to
the Italian Embassy in this city, ask
ing for statement concerning the
Italian law on marriages.
1.-THE Department has been asked
by an American whose daughter is
about to marry an Italian noble
man." wrote Bacon, "as to the legal
effect of the certification by an Ital-
ian consular agent in the United
States of an American marriage and
whether or not the marriage certified
is in all respects exactly equivalent
according to Italian law, to a mar.
riage celebrated In. Italy"
The reply was to the effect that q
marriage solemnized In America be
tween an italian subject and m

led in the bill.
Mccarthy expressed the belief that
the bill in general was an excellent
one, but he did not quite approve Of
the section relating to amendment
of the land laws. lie expressed n
belief that, between the land-law
provisions of the bill as II stood, mad
the resolution introduced few days
ago by himself It would be possible
to arrive at compromise that would
be satisfactory to most people and to
the best interests of the Territory.
Coelho said he had no proof that
the bill in question did meet with
the approval of Kuhio. lie said that
one man had told him such was the
case, but, as that man had lied to
him on one occasion, he would not
believe him in this instance.
| He then talked whole lot about
being loyal to Kuhio, and insisted
that nothing should be done which
could be construed as expressing a
lack of confidence in the Delegate to
Congress.
Fairchild said he was as loyal to
the Delegate as was the Senator from
Maui, but that he did not have to
make so much noise in protesting his
loyalty.
Moore asked that the Governor
point out the provisions in the bill
which did not meet with his approx
al.
Governor Frear said that the,
were only in minor cases, instancinl
