There are not that many men actively engaged in the mining of coal, but that number will take part in the demands. The non-union men and day laborers are as anxious as any others for the movement to be made and will neces- sarily be included in the number requiring as- sistance daring the struggle.

This story is not gener/ily credited here, and particularly is the lack of faith noticeable at the State Department. Secretary Blaine re- fused to say anything on the subject.

MINISTER PORTER FULLY INFORMED. Itis certain that Minister Porter has been fully informed of the attitude of the State De- partment and that he has already interposed with the Italian government by the direction of the department, with good results in the explanation of — Amer- ican methods of jurisprudence.
