"WASHINGTON , March31. With nn offlclal
note , tinted today , Bnron Fava , Italian min
ister , has declared to the socrotury of stuto
thntthu United States government , not hav
ing given insurances that Uio murderers of
Italian subjects acquitted by American mag
istrates nntl murdered in prison -while under
tlio Immediate proto : tlon of the authorities
of Now Orleans would bo brought to justice ,
the Italian government has fountl Itself under
the very pnlnfill necessity of showing openly
Its dissatisfaction by recalling the minister
of Ills majesty from the country where nn
Italian representative is unable to ohtalu
justice ;
The baron will sonn leayo the TJtilted
States , leaving the secretary of the legation
in charge of only current alTalra.
This action by the Italian government
caused the deepest surprlso m onicial circles
hero when the fact bccnnio known. It has
hecn Kenerally supposed that the Italian gov
ernment would nt least await the action of
the Now Orleans grand jury , which Is
cnargcd with an Investigation of the hlooily
episode at the Now Orleans Jail. It appears
however , that the information received from
its representatives must Imvo led ttio
government to the conclusion that the
grand jury Investigation would fnl
to result In the punishment or
even indictment of any persons conncctei"
\vlththokillingof the Italians. The letter
of Governor JJIchols , In 1'oply to Secretary
Blalne. was also , ho thought , regarded as
evasive of the real point ut Issuo-repara'.lon
Xortho allowed wrong and the governor's
assurances that further bloodshed would not
be allowed , unaccompanied by any excuse
for the failure of the state or municipal nu
thorltios to tnko precautions to prevent the
killing , was , It is said , regarded by the
Italian government with oxlromodlssntlsfac
tlon. It appeared that the United States
porcrntnont had exhausted its resources
The relations between the natlona
government and the governments
ot the states were so fixed
by the American constitution that when th
Italian minister , obeying the commands o
Ills government , sought for some assurann
that the persons concerned in the killing o
its subjects would DO punished , It was no
possible for the Roncral government to glv <
juiy definite assurance of the kind. It could
nml did point to tlio fact that the grand Jury
wns the American provision for culling before -
fore the bar of Justice persons who had vlo
latcd the law of the land. Hut this partlcu
lar grnnd jury was called together under th
laws of tlio sovereign state of Louisiana ,
and whether or not It would punish , accord'
lr to the Italian Idea of justice , was some
vOlnp no national oniclul front the presidcn
uown could agree , and the Italian govern
mcntwas not satis lied with such such views
VJith the relation between state and - national
tional , frovornmoim 'and the peculiarities o
our constitutional system of government i
had nothing to do. But it was necessary
according to Its views , that Italian citizens ii
foreign countries should bo accredited the fu"
inensuro of protection lixcd by the laws c
these countries. Hero was a case whnro , lie
cording to the statement of the minister ,
Italian subjects had been arrested 01
a charge of crime and acquitted by nn Amer
lean Jury according to the forms of Amcrlcai
law. These men were decided innocent by
judicial tribunal and had been slain by a
nngry people. Tlio Italian government coul
not BO behind the voralct of an America ;
court , and notwithstanding it was stated i
some quarters that the men wore rcall.
guilty of a foul assassination and had been
acquitted by means of bribery , in the eye of
the Italian government they wore in
nocent Italian subjects. In thnlr violent
lent killing the Italian people had
been outraged and Insulted. The national
government of the United States hud , us
stated , failed to ijlvo any definite assurance
that reparation would bo mndo. There was
but ono course , and tlint was that taken
today , when the Italian minister notified
Secretary Dlalno that ho had been recalled
because his government was dissatisfied with
the negotiations. This Is the Italian view of
the matter.
Tltoro was a commotion among the state do-
partincntofllelals when thafactbccnmoknown
that Baron Kava hud been recalled. They did
iiot know it officially -save the secretary
before the close of oftlco hours , for the secre
tary was cunllnod to Ills homo nniu by a re
currence of his ohl malady the gout.
The secretary managed to get into a car
riage at 4 p. m. and Urovo to the white house ,
where ho tola the president all that had oc
curred and discussed future prospects , re
maining an hour , then returned homo and
was not accessible ,
The state dopnitment officials declined to
discuss the matter. .None of the oftloials
cnroil to bo quoted In their opinions , as pre
cedents wore to bo looked up before thny
could ho ventured. Them was a general dis
position , however , to belittle the matter and
110 Idea that the dogs of war would bo re-
Inns C < 1.
Buron Fava has not demanded his pass
port , as at first reported. There-
worn many steps in diplomacy ,
and though slight distinctions nnd
small formalities appeared trivial in
the public view , they -were really full of sig
nificance to the trained diplomatist , A de
mand for passports is an extreme measure.
It is taken when the war feeling runs high ,
ana the minister's person is in danger nt the
uandsof the popnlaco. It Is also iu a decree
suggestive of a menace. A recall under the
circumstances of this case is a serious matter ,
There could bo no attempt to ulsgnlso that
fact , but It does not signify that mutual ex
planation and diplomacy cannot restore the
old status.
The charge d'uffalrs , thomarquls imperialo ,
has been left In charge of the Italian lega
tion , so the severance of diplomatic relations
cannot IKS regarded as complete.
Just wtiat the status of thUofllcinl U cannot
bo known except through his onicial net * . It
is sUtoct that ho is in charge of "current
affairs. " If any serious significance attaches
to the inlnlncr'srecall this means that the
charge is to be limited in Ids functions to
Issuing passports , Including consular oftlcers
and o'ihor small matters. In this case further
correspondoneo between the governments of
the United States and Italy must take place
directly between Washington and Home.
It ran bo stated positively that unless
events take nn unforsccn auil Improbable
turn there will bo no call issued for nn extra
session of conpress , and ono of the most seri
ous IH-offocts of the Incident will uo the
probable postponement for nn Indefinite time
of the president's ' proposed soutlieni und
western trip.
The view taken by tha administration , as
It Is understood , it that this government has
done all that could be done In the in niter.
Even If it had complete legal jurbitlctionln
the case , It could only assure the Italian
government that It would prosecute the per
sons cullty of the attack on the Italians at
Now Orleans , it could not auuro tl > o Italian
government that it would punish thorn as
Italy desired. That would bo for grand and
potli juries to determine. The Italian gov
ernment has boon told that the president ae-
plorcs the occurrence and that the govern-
mt'nt has taken stops to Investigate the ant
tor. I'urt of till * Investigation was the as-
cortalumcntof tlm nationality of the Italians
killed , nnd this has not yet been learned.
There Is uo proof , whatever , before the urcsl-
dealer the secretary of state that a bluglo
itallin ellU u wn among the victims , and
such proof la absolutely a necessary prelimi
nary tea fair demand for reparation.
The ofllcers of the department of
justice are still Inquiring Into this
and other branchon of the case.
It Is suspected in administration circles
that the recent changes in the Italian cabinet
may have much to do with the present stain
ofafTiiira. Marquis do Hudlnl is supposed to
bo open to the Inilucnco of the popular clamor
nnd to desire to achieve a reputation with
the masses by catering to the demand of the
hot-headed clement of Italy. At any rate it Is
felt that the present state of affairs is only
temporary , ninl there Is no disposition or in
tention to tnko any hasty action on the part
of this government. Certainly Mr. Porter ,
United btatoi minister to Italy , will not bo
recalled , and this government will maintain
n pacific attitude nnd abide by the develop
ments of the future.
It is said by a gentleman who tins had largo
experience In tbo diplomatic affairs of our
government that n declaration of war docs
not necessarily follow such action as that , of
the Italian frovemment. There wore many
precedents for it , nearly all of which , how
ever , were ntnoiifr European nations. Through
n better understanding of the di Heron cos
that may exist or through the friendly Inter
cessions of a third power thcso difficulties
nro often adjusted without reoouMo to arms.
So far as ho recalled there had bean few In
stances where foreign ministers to the
United States had been recalled at
the request of our government or had
iccn given their passports. The flrst was
, hnt of n French minister , Citizen Junct , who
, vas recalled by the French government nt
.hn request of the United States because he
, vns personally oitenslvo to this country. The
ither case occurred at the time of the war of
81U with Great Britain , when the minister
rom that country was given his passports.
There are no cases recalled where ministers
f the United States to a foreign country
davobeeu given their passports , though trhero
may have been ono or more Instances of this
klna. The prospects of war ever the inci
dent Is ridiculed by this gentleman. Tbero
's also a prospect of an extra ses-
loii of congress growing lUt ° ' * ue
nine incident. lie suggested that a
: nisundnrstandlng may possibly exist
us to the real nature of thclottcrof Governor
Nichols to Secretary Blaine with rcjpect to
ho kllllnp. It is assumed that Uaron Favit

bly that the government may Interpret it as
the sentiment of the federal government In
the case. Nations , ho pointed out , do not go
to war In thtso times over small affairs.
Late tills afternoon erroneous reports were
u circulation respecting alleged outrages on
American citizens in Italy. A careful In-
iuicy nt the department of stnto fails to dts-
lese more than two complaints of this cnnr-
acter during the past six months. In ono
case nn American citizen In the habit of
crossing the Piedmont boundary line was
suspected of smuggling , and when ho refused
to allow fho Italian custom ofllcers to search
: iis carriage for contraband articles ho was
arrested and mndo a bitter complaint. In the
other case an Italian returned from the
United States was arrested for alleged brigandage -
andago in ly'iO. It appeared upon consulting.
tbo records that ho had been included In the
amnesty proclamation , so ho was released
Just as our state department discovered that
he had been fraudulently naturalized in this
country.
Hepresentatlvo I'ayson of Illinois , speaking
about the matter , said there was no danger of
war. There is too much good sense ia this
country , he said , and it was to bo presumed
there also was iu Italy , to go to war about
this difllculty.
Kcpresenlatlvo Copmwell of Massachusetts
regarded the situation as ono of great gravity ,
und deplored the lack of a nnvy suitable for
the defense of the country.
Officers of the navy said , "I told you so ,
when asked how thpy viewed the matter.
For years past hi the face of opposition ami
derision from members of congress roprC'
sontlug constituents located in the interior of
the country and In a pasttion safe -from out
side attack they had persistently pointed out
the need fora navy that would bo a dofouso
for the country. Their colleagues in the
army had bogged for coast defenses , and yet
hero wo were with an International affair on
our hands and but'a mere skeleton ot n nnvy

back. To would-bo economists who have
opposed their views these ofllcors point to
the French spoliation claims aggregating
millions of dollars which wo are Just be
ginning to settle and which found their
birth in an Incident somewhat like this. In
that case the United States government dis
regarded treaty stipu'utions , the French
government recalled Its minister and with

WASH IXOTON , March 31.- [ Special Telegram
to Tun DUD. ] Senator Mnnderson , recently
chosen to succeed In gulls ns president pro
tempore of the senate , and an active member
of the committee on military affairs , had re
tired when the correspondent of Tim BCK
called nt his residence.
"War , war and rumors of war , " ho said ,
rubbing his oyos. "To mo there Is much
that Is ridiculous In this talk about a war
with Italy growing out of the recall of the
Italian minister. It must be remembered
that these things uro liable to" occur at any
time , nnd it Is merely a coincidence that
this recall caino so shortly after the
Now Orleans difllculty. I grant you , " said
Uio senator , ' 'that liaron R\vn's action in
this matter may have boon unsatisfactory to
his government and ono of the remote causes
for his recall. This is only a more surmise ,
however. Whatever the causes nro I am
confident that they nro personal matters
between Ilaron Ru-a and his government.
The Italian government has never by a
single net shown that It has regarded it in
any way Incumbent upon it to take up the
JCcw Orleans matter. Outside of the formal
correspondence that passed between the
minister hero nnd the Now Orlenns authori
ties iu this matter the minister may have
been uctlngonhli own personal responsibility
without any Instructions from abroad.
Inasmuch ns the Italian government has
never bhowti any lntorc.it Iu any other way ,
why not presume that they were displeased
that Baron Fava took any stop whatever
toward recognizing- claims of those Now
Orleans prisoners upon thn protection of
their native country. I do not put this
forward as my own construction on the
matter , but it Is just ns fair to
presume this and a great deal more reason
able than to suppose that Italy would go to
war without nt first making a formal demand
on the United States government for repara
tion.

important is ia compliance with the request
of the Burlington road that the through
tariff of the Atchison and Hock Island road
in connection with the Pan Handle to points
on an west of tbo Mississippi river , be
cancelled. These Joint tariffs have boon
operating to the disadvantage of other

charged through the city being abolished , and
tbo commissioners tlnd that under1 the agree
ment of April 1 it cannot be conceded to ono
or two members of tbo association and denied

It is feared that this rullne will not settle the
matter and that the Atchison will refuse to
abide by the decision , nt least until after 1
has been confirmed by the advisory board.
Hopreso'itatives of the Missouri river lines
have fixed a schedule of proportional rates Ir
connection with lake lines between western
railroads and the seaboard , based on the firs' '
class rate of 72 cents cast-bound from tbi
