Always at the head of the column was the evangelist himself, always saying “Come.” ‘The choir was singing steadily and the work of pleading with the unconverted warmed up 60, that a good many people, alermed at the poswi~ bility of their being asked questions pertinent to their spiritual or non-spiritual condition, decided that it was really time to go home. Here and there was conviction, and occasion- ally a fervently ejaculated “Praise the Lord” would be heard all over the room, called forth by an admission, a confession or an expressed desire. “Lord, I hear of showers of blessings,” sang the choir, and the song was taken up imme- iF BEGINS TO ALARM THE CITY—TRYING To SHOW ‘THAT THE VICTIMS OF THE LYNCHING WERE NOT ITALIAN SUBJECTS—EXCITEMENT OX ROWE. A New Orleans special says: Alarm is felt over the international complications Hkely to arise from the lynching of the eleven Italians by the mob on Saturday. Inquiries at the railroad offices show that over 700 italians have left town since the lynching, including many of the better clas. They feared the affair would grow into a race trouble. Signor Corte, the Italian consul at New Orleans, became in- dignant at the fact that is growing apparent that no stepsare to be taken against the men who were engaged in the lynching. He talked quite excitedly on the subject, and enid that if the leaders of the mob were indicted the Italian government would acceptit as evidence that the authoritios did not intend to screen the lynchers, but if nothing was done it would accept the affair asa gross outrage on Italians and an insult to Italy, and he predicted that an Italian fleet would be sent to the Mississippi. WERE ANY ITALIAN SUBJECTS? An attempt will be made to show that all the men lynched by the mob had repudiated their allegiance to the King of Italy and were Amer- ican citizens. Daring December complaint was made by the Italian consul that the Italian prisoners were being badly treated und abused in the parish prison. He attempted to inter- fere, and Baron Fava, the Italian minister, saw Mr. Blaine about the matter. The answer was then made to Mr. Blaine’s message on the sub- t that all the prisoners were American citizens. There seems to be some difference of opinion on this subject. It is claimed by Signor Corte that three of the dead men were still Italian subjects—Monasterio, Trabena and Marchese. It should be noted, by the way, that the bodies of these men were the only ones not claimed by some friend or relative, and that they were buried by the city in the’ potter's fieid without nm attendant or ceremonies of any kind. On the other hand it is asserted by the registrar of voters that all these men_ were registered and had voted at the last election. The constitution of Louisiana allows a foreign-born citizen to register and vote as soon as be gives notice of his intention to become naturalized and before his tinal naturalization papers are issued to him.

Prisoners in New Orleans did not become gen- erally known in Rome until yesterday morn- ing. It created a profound sensation, and cables have been passing between the cabinet and the Italian minister at Washington. The general feeling is one of utmost indignation and thirst for reprisals in some form. An English visitor, who was mistaken for an American, had ‘a narrow escape from being mobbed. ‘It is expected that the subject will be brought up in the chamber of deputies.

Signor Corte sent fall particulars about the lynching to Baron Fava and the ital- jan government Saturday, vd further communication to muke on the subject. He says there have been no other indignities offered the Italian colony here, and he does not anticipate any, as he believes that peace has been fally restored. Full particulars of the riot were telegranhed | to the Iinlian papers. The Italian consul and | colony in New Orleans are in geceipt of num- bers of telegra;ns from ali portions of this country expressing sympathy and denouncing the action of the mob here. It is not likviy | that there will be any meeting of Italiaus to express their opinion on the subject for tear of arousing popular sentiment. ‘The Italians are very reticent and will not say a word on the subject pro orcou. ‘There was to have been an Italian meoting in New Orleans this week to ar- range for the formation of an Italian federation | and the erection of a handsome club building | for the italian societies and Italien savings | bank und Italian school, but this has been in definitely postponed. | A QUESTION OF DAMAGES.

Again in 1873 New Or- leans had to pay a large sum for the losses to A great deal of popular fecling was aroused here at the state- ment that when the news of the verdict was re- ceived the American tag wus insulted by the tations here. ‘This was done by two Italians— Seprila and Romano—who tore down the Amer- ican flag az the French market and hoisted the Italian flag in ita pluce. Mr. John Zacca, the editor of the Mali Amer- ionao, said that the hoisting of the Italian flag over the stars and stripes on Saturday was not an intentional insult to the American people. The Itabans, he says, were naturally exuberant over the acquittal of their countrymen ai wanted to demonstrate that fact by boisting a the fiogs they had, and as there was bat o1 d, and being Itelian, they put their or flag uppermost.

Attorney General Rogers has made an investi- gation of Saturday's occurrences at the jail.

INDICTNENTS MAY FOLLOW. Some indictments may follow asa formal- ity, but so great a number of people were con- | cerned in the killing that it will be impossible toarraign them all or secure a conviction in case they should be arrested. ‘The attorney general has not yet presented a formal report to the governor.
