His Answer to the Italian Minister Put! the Latter in a Bad Light—Judge " Marr Says That the Lynchers Will Never Be Punished. WASHINGTON, April 3.—0fiicial circles judging from what appears on the surfaco and what is heard about the Capitol, arc not especially alarmed -over the troublc with the Italian government. The im pression prevails that the president ant Secretary Blaine think that the Italian government in recalling Minister Favz has acted hastily, and that the trouble will be finally amicably settled. The president especially takes the wholt matter very coolly. He has, so it is stated said that he will take no unusual pains t< appease the wrath of the Italians, but let matters take their natural course. A no ticeable thing is that the Government does not consider that diplomatic relation: with Italy have been severed by the recal of Fava. Secretary Blaine in his letter acknowl edging the receipt of the communicatior from Fava saying that he was going home addressed the secretary of the legation a: the second in authority. A reply from tho secretary is anxiously awaited. If he writes in his Official capacity it will meat that the Italian government still consider: that it is represented here. Blaine Contradicts Fava. Just what Fava’s withdrawal amounts to, therefore, is a question. If, the homo government had considered that diplo matic relations were severed by the recal of Fava, Blaine would certainly not have written to the secretary of the legation He would have sent his communicatior direct to the government at Rome, 01 through Minister Porter there. It is con sidered to be very significant that neithez of these courses was resorted to. There is evidently a question of veracit) between Secretary Blaine and Baron Fava The secretary seems to think that tho baron was entirely at error in stating tha‘. a demand for indemnity for the heirs o: the men killed in the New Orleans riot would not be considered. Secretary Blaine in his letter, almost flatly stated that Fava is entirely wrong in taking this view 01 the matter. A demand for indemnity would be considered according to the cus- tom of nations. It is generally conceded in official and diplomatic circles here that Secretary Blaine’s answer to Baron Fava’s notice 01 recall is a document so straightforward and firm that it places the Italian ministei in a very bad light. The following is Mr Blaine’s letter: I DEPARTMENT OF STATE, l_ WASHINGTON, April 1, 1891. s Marquis Imperiali, Charge d‘Afiaires. DEAR SIR—I have the honor to acknowledgc the receipt of a note of yesterday‘s date fron Baron Fava, who has left the Italian legatioz in your charge. I beg to express the sincerc regret with which the government of tho United States receives the intelligence of Rum Fava‘s speedy departure from this capital Though he has more than once intimated thi: purpose, the government of the United State: has been unable to see adequate reasons foo such a step. The baron‘s service here for th( past ten years has been distinguished at al times by the most agreeable relations with tho executive department of this government. The regret at his leaving is enhanced when asthe president believes, he has been recallet' under a misapprehension of facts by the gov ernment of Italy. The cause of his sundering his diplomatic relations with this government is thus given in his note: “The reparations demanded by the govern ment of the king, as I have had the honor to in form you in our interviews held during th( past few days, were to consist of the following points: “1. The official assurance by the federal gov ernment that the guilty parties should bi brought to justice. “2. The recognition in principle that an in demnity is due to the relatives of the victims.” The first demand thus stated by Baron Fava is slightly changed in phrase from that em ployed by him in his many verbal request: based on a telegram from the Marquis Rudini which is left with me. The Marquis Rudini de clared that “Italy‘s right to demand and to ob tain punishment of the murderers and anin demnity for the victims is unquestionable." I is inferred that Baron Fava‘s change of phra54 meant no change of demand. An Unreasonable Demand. I have endeavored to impress upon him in tho several personal interviews with which he ha; States is utterly unable to give, the assurancc which the Marquis Rudini has demanded. Ever if the national government had the entire juris diction over the alleged murderers it could not give assurance to any foreign power that they should be punished. The president is unable u see how any government could justly give an assurance of this character in advance of a tria and a verdict of “guilty.” ' In the constitution of the United States it it declared that “in all criminal prosecutions the accused shall enjoy the right to a. speedy and public trial by an impartial jury of the stat( and district wherein the crime shall have bee! committed.” * It needs no argument to prove that a jury could not be impartial if it were in any senso or to any degree bound before the trial of tho accused by any assurance which the president of the United States had ventured to give to: foreign power. In the constitution of the statc of Louisiana, under whose immediate jurisdic tion the crimes were committed, substantial]: the same provision is found, so that the govern or of the state would be as unable to give: pledge in advance for the result of a trial undeI state law as the president would be were in practicable to try the leaders of the mob under We Won’t Be Hurried. In Baron Fava‘s second point he demands the recognition in principle that an indemnityii suredly under a grave error when he declare: that the United States government declined t( regret if he has communicated such a conclu sion to your government. The United States so far from refusing, has distinctly recognized the principle of indemnity to those Italian sub ‘ jects who may have been wronged by a viola treaty with the United States of Feb. 26, 1871. Ihave repeatedly given to Baron Fava tho assurance that under the direction of the pres idem; all the facts and incidents connected with the unhappy tragedy at New Orleans on Marci 14 last should be most thoroughly investigated. Ihave also informed him that inamatter'o: such gravity the government of the Unitec‘ States would not permit itself to be undqu hurried; nor will it make answer to any de mand until every fact essential to a correct judgment shall have been fully ascertained through legal authority. The impatience o: the aggrieved may be natural, but its indulgence does not always secure the most substantia’ justice. Accept, sir, the assurance of my high consid eration. JAMES G. BLAINE. THEY WON’T BE PUNIsuED.‘ Judge Mnrr Says Nothing \Vill Ever Bi Done to the Lynchcl's. N Ew 0' :LEANS, April 3.-Judge Marr, the presiding magistrate otter the section 0: the criminal district court in which the grand jury is now serving, expressed the private Opinion that. notfiin g would ever be done to the lynch'ers who caused the killing of the Italians. It was impossible to crimi- nally prosecute 5,000 persons, he said, and referred to the famous passage in'Burke?s oration'that there is no law under whichia whole community can be indicted. Even' if the grand jury were to indict the leaders no jury could ever be secured to try them. Such publicity had been given to the afiair that every one was conversant with the facts of the case, and no one was without a fixed opinion. Close examination of the record of the eleven alleged assassins discloses the fact that all but four of the eleven slain were registered voters either by bimh or natura- lization. . The four others, whom Consul Corte claims as entitled to the protection of the Italian government, are Trahina, Baguetto, Monasterio and Comitez. The first named is found to have been a voter in the parish of St. Charles. Baguetto is proved to have been a fugitive murderer from Palermo and a member of the Espo- sito band of highwaymen. Ma'rchesi was a veteran of Garibaldi’s army, but fled from Palermo while charged with murder- ing a female. Trahina was also a. robber in Sicily. Of Comitez nobody seems to know anything. He and Monastero were buried in the Potter’s field. Consul Corte is doingall he can to reach the facts of the affair, though he has not received that courtesy at the hands of Governor Nicholls and Mayor Shakespeare that his position warrants. The grand jury is holding daily sessions. SECRETARY TBACY’S OPINION. He Says \Ve Want IVIore Battle Ships and Must Have Them. NEW YORK, April 3.—-A special to The Herald from Washington gives an inter- view had by its correspondent with Secre- tary Tracy. Mr. Tracy is reported as say- ing that we want more battle ships, and he intends to ask the next congress for all he can get. He draws an alarming picture of the position New York city would be placed in if attacked by a foreign fleet. He says it is absolutely true that a foreign fleet could send its gunboats into the East, North and Harlem rivers, and by destroy- ing our railroad bridges and other modes of communication shut New York OE first from the mainland and second from all supplies of food. The present trouble with Italy, he says, while it is not expected to result in war, will emphasize the necessity on our part of greater precautions against attack. ITALY'S NEXT lVIOVE. Unless Satisfied She Will Exclude Amer- ican Goods from Her Ports. ROME, April 3.-—It is rumored in ofiicial circles here that the next move on the part of the Italian government, should satis- faction not be given for the N ew_ Orleans tragedy, will be to place an embargo on American goods and prohibit their impor‘ tation into Italy. Much indignation exists in Rome against the Vatican party for'the utterance of the papal organ to the effect that the government was influenced by secret societies. The clerics are said to be doin every- thing possible to weaken the estigc which the government has gained with the people by its action. With the excep- tion of the clerics, the neWspapers, with- out regard to party, support the govern- ment in its course. Called Rufiians and Slave Beaters. SAN FRANCISCO, April 3.—-La Voce de] Populo, the principal Italian paper in this city, says: “The recall of Baron Fava is an act worthy of a government which feels its own dignity and has full consciousness of its own right. It is an act of solemn in: dignation of a government of a people su- perior byintelligence, education and hon- esty against a proceeding in which figures 3 raked up gathering of ruflians and ex—slave heaters such as the governor of Louisiana and the municipality of New Orleans.” The paper also calls attention to what it considers a serious defect in the United States constitution, and says in spite of the defect the federal government must be held responsible. “The fear of war is ab- surd,” says the paper, “as the matter will be smoothed over.” Italy “’ill Not Make War. PARIS, April 3.——Siguor C. Ressman, counsellor of the Italian Embassy in France, says of the Italic-American en- tanglement: “If Mr. Blaine has hedged himself in with the plea of non possumus, and has refused to satisfy Italy’s demands, Baron, Fava will receive an unlimited leave of absence, and nothing further will transpire. That is the extreme limit of action to which a European government can have recourse when it desires to show that it is dissatisfied with the United States. Italy will not make war.” Not Deemed Serious. WASHINGTON, April 3. —The president has decided to start on his trip to the Pacific coast on Tuesday, April 14. This decision of the president is thought to be conclu- sive evidence that the Fava affair is not deemed Of serious import in administra- tion circles. ' The Astor House Suicide Was Wright. NEW YORK, April 3.—The coroner’s jury, which has been investigating the Astor House suicide case, has returned a verdict that the deceased, who committed suicide at the Astor House Feb. Blast, was in his lifetime William 'Wright, and that the body was not that of George W. Edgar or Fred Evans. In conclusion the jury called attention of the proper authorities to the audacious attempt on the part of Perrin H. Sumner to corruptly foist on the jury by false evidence an identification of an alleged Edgar, thus hindering and pre- venting the course of justice. There Was Blood on the Bill. SPRINGFIELD, 0., April 3.—Dick Grams: was indicted for murder in the first de- gree on microscopical evidence here yester- day. He was suspected of murdering Wil- liam Hambright, a night watchman. A - ten dollar bill he spent soon after the mur- der was traced and examined with a microscope. Blood was found on it, and the indictment followed. Crazed by the Grip. NEW YORK, April 3.——Frederick Aberg, a Swede, twenty-two years old, while in the fever delirium. of a severe attack of the grip, jumped from the fourth story win- dow of his residence Thursday morning to the roof of an adjoining building which is but two stories high. He died soon after of his injuries. ’ , Carriage Makers Victorious. PITTSBURG, April 3.—The wagon and car- riage makers of this city and Allegheny to the number of about 900 struck yesterday. The men were victorious in fourteen shops, about 300 of them going back to work. There are still about (300 out for nine hours, and further signatures to their scale are expected today. 27thinuuo1 Statement T RAVEL E R 8 Insurance Co. Hartford, Conn., January 1, 1891.
