4 PART ONE. ¥l A / N/ E7 4 O AHA TWENTIE H YEAR. OMAHA, SU ITALY'S BOLD DEMAXD Recretary Blaine Must Reply to Rudini's Note by Next Tuesday, IF HE DOESN'T SOMETHING MAY DROP. The Rumor Discredited But Roman Papers Give it Prominence, A OENIAL SENT FROM WASHINGTON, Not Oustomary for One Nation to Dictate to Another in Buch Cases, WHAT THE STATE DEPARTMENT IS DOING. Preparing Figures Which Will Show the Italian Government How Many Obje ionable Citizens We Have Received, Rowe, Aoril 11.—The principal topic of conversation teday hos the latest re- port, put in circulation last evening, to the effect that unless the Amorican government made a speedy reply to Premier Rudini's last note Minister Porter would be politely roquested to leave Rome and the Italian le- gation be recalled from Washington. Such an attitude on the part of the Italian rn- ment seemed so unreasonable, in view of all been the recent developnients, that last night's ve- port was at first generally discredited. Many of the newspapers, however, today gave it prominence and asserted their belief tnat it was substantially correct. They say America will be allowed until April 14 to re. ply. The original report fixed today as the limit. The original source of the report saems to wive it plausivility. This, it is learned, was a prominent member of the chamber of deputies, who is an ardent sup- porter of Rudini and believed t> have his confidence. Whether or not tho premier has actually decided alveady upon the extreme course in- dicated, it is unguestionablo thav this course is under disculsion in high goverament circlos and meets with favorable comment. 1t may ve that the deputy who started the report supposed the decision had been reached, when the subject was really only being considered, and it may bo that the report was given out to test public opinion before the cabinot should commit itself ab- solutely 10 80 grave a step.

April 11.—[Special Cablegram :.]—A Rome dispatch says that everybody Is on the qui vive for the next act in the Ttaian-American drama. Crispi has ovenly declared that the Rudini cabinet dare not ious demand for redress upon the United States, and that the Italian people Bave been held up to ridicule by the vacila- tion of the ministry. The stitement that American utterances have had an influence in provoking the hostile fooling 18 confirmed In adeition to the press dispatches the consul general at New York hus kept his govern- ment fully informed of the editorial expres- Slons of tho pross of that, clty. Those. are considered us_extremely obnoxious in their tone of contempt for Italy strength, both naval and military. A caricature which is swd to have giron personal oftense to King Humbert is oue in which o monkey figures with a crown on_its head and with features bearing a resemblance to those of the king. The clerical or vatican faction is alleged to bave circulated widely wood cuts of these caricatures as showing American hatred and contempt for the quirinal. Altogether, what- over the outcome of the dficulty, the feeling toward America in high Italiau circles is very bitter. Among the lower orders the compli- cation is having a contrary effect. The people seem to anticipate that the fi"‘” of the Americau paradise are about to o shut on the Italians, and there is a rush w0 get in before they close. Tho ports aro thronged with intending emigrants, and _families from patriarch to babe cun' be seon trudging along the high- ways that lead to the points of departure. The authorities are making offorts to dis- courago emigration, but iithout offect. Nothiug short. of bayonets can stay the tor- rent. Mostof the emigrants are said to bo burd working and worthy poasants, but sory ignorant and dirty. Tho increase’ of taxe nas also tended to promote emigratio A Rome letter says that contrary to the gonoral impression tho Italian_army is in a much more eficient condition than the navy, the discipline being vory severe, and the troops aro perfect so far as drill is con- cered. ‘The mixture of the tropps has, how- ever, a tendency to lower tho standard, the Ttalians of the south being, as a rule, very distnct and inferlor to those of the north, who have, s0 far, won most of Italy's suc- cesses.

As stated in Secretary Blaine's letter to the Marquis Imperiali, the government of tho United States proposes to deal with the ques- tions at issue earnestly, but with caution and deliberation. The department of state is not contenting itself with a specific inquiry into the history of the antecedents of the New Orleans victims, Tt proposes to show the Italian _overnment the extent of the evil of unrestricted immigration from which tne Jnited States is now suffering, and this pur- pose nccessitates plain dealings with the character of a_cousiderable element of our population which has largely been re- cruited from Italy, so that some interesting statistics are in course of preparation that will touah with blunt directness upon a number of murders and_outrages commitied in re- cent years in the United States by members of tho Mafla aud other secret Italian organi- zations and upon the yendettas that are in ported into the United States to the disturb- ance of peace and involving peace to our tax- vers in the prosecution of the malefactors. is required to compile these facts and It the department will take the necessary time, In high official circlos there has been no change in the opinion that the New Orleans matter is being manipulated in Italy to in- fluenc 2 Italian politics. An Italian Editorial. W Yonk, April 11,—L'Eco d'T the following editorial: It is now nearly a month since the Italian government sent its first noto to the cabinet at Washington ask- ing for equitable and immediate reparation for the Italian citizens cowardly murdered in New Orieans, Harrison and Blaine, before our minister, who brought them the formal and peremptory note of the Marqnis di Rudini, shed in an admirable duet of Americanized buffoonery tears of sorrow on the poor victims, but in conclusion to Italy insulted and viclated the existing treaties and gave no other satisfaction than presi- dential and minsterial t But treach ous tears, those of the American ministers included, are not current on the Itahan market. ' The most cunning Blaine, having once dried up his obligatory tears,, thought that the facts of the New Orleans affair could be_settled in an easy and frienaly manner. But the New Orieans outrage could not be soslightly put_aside. The slaughter at New Orleans and the bebavior of the Washington government haye raised in al European cabinots an awful question. The United States signed treaties with us, but when the occasion came to put them into action they said they could not consider them, as ttey were bouid by private engage- wents to their states, Can this ambiguity and violation of covenauts last! All Europe has backed the note of the Marquis di Rudini, A recent cable dispatch has proved to the American government that the Italian cabinet is not joking and that it is quite equal 10 the occasion in this emergency. The United States must learn that to bold a position al nest civilized nations it is not enough to have millions of. dollars, but it is necessary as a first condition siue aua non to be hounest.” Only a Leave of Absence. Niw Yok, April 11.—Dr. Roversiof Tl Progress Ttalo Americano stated tonight that he had been authorized by Baron Fava to state for public ation that he was only ‘galng to Romeon a leave of absence and that e is still Italian minister in Washington, l)l‘.' Roversi further stated that he believes Sec” retary Blawe is a most smart politician, but in this affair he has been altogether t0o tricky ; that his policy exceeds the limits of diplomacy. Referring to the recent dis- atches from Rome, the doctor said he be- ieves them fictitious or elsc sent either by French newspapers or inspired by the vai- ican. Decared to Be Nonsense.

They were Secretary Foster, United States Treasurer Huston, E. H. Nedeker and Judge R. S, Tay- lor, the latter three of Indiana.

Parnell Admits Privately That the Cause of Home Rule Has Been Thrown Back Twenty Years. [Copyright 1891 by James Gordon Bennett.1 Loxpoy, April 1L—|New York Herald Cable—Special to Tae Bee|—A vigorous attempt is being made t6 bring Gladstone to talk regarding the alleged interview with Irish-American extremists In 1886, Parnell's accusation 18 that he- took counsel with the dynamiters prior to'the introduction of the home rule bill, to which Gladstone gives a round and general denial, but Balfour has indirectly caused the republication of the singular correspondence which took place in July, 1886, recounting the conversation with Gladstone at Eaton hall, Duke of West- minster's, At that time Gladstone told Bal- four that he had authentic information, not from Parnell, that there was a power behind Parnell which must be coneiliated or a cam- paign of violence and outrage would be set on foot. Balfour said: ‘‘We are to be blown up or stabbed if we don't grant home rule by the end of the next session,"” Gladstone replio “I understand the time is shorter than that." Gladstone does not deny the accuracy of this report, and it is now alloged that Parnell knew of the occurrénce at the time, and is determined to press against Gladstone. Dr. O'Reilly’s denial that ke had an interview with Gladstone does mot meet Parnell’s charge, which was mnet directed against O'Rellly. Parnell declares that he has proof in his possession that (ladstone yielded to the fear of dynamite ontrages and tried to induce the tory government of 1880 to do the same. This treacherous attack on Gladstone is much coudemned by the eatire liberal party as well as by the Irish members generally, including some of Pamell's own supporters, It tends further ‘to shut out all chance of a recouclliation betweey Parnell and the En- glish liberals, Attempts to restore harmony break down in every direston, the bitterness between tho Parneljtesand ‘anti-Parnellites having gradually in ed during the past week. It has burst oyf savagely in the house of commona, €slone! i, Man having as good as called Tim Healey & liar and incurring the rebuke of the speaker. Parnell holds aloof from the house, his ufual place being care- fully appropriated everz day by the rebels.

Contest at Geestemundoe Assuming Proportions of a Political Contoest. [Copuright 1891 bu New York Associated Pres:| Benruiy, April 11.—The electoral contest at Geestemunde, where Prince Bismarck's can- didacy for the reicnstag is opposed by candi- dates belongiug to the socialist and progress- ist parties, has assumed the proportions of a great political event. Prince Bismurck has definitely accepted tho candidature on the assurance that he will receive a triumphant majority. Accepting Bismarck's reappear- ance in the reichstag as certain, overybody asks what his line of action will be when there. He himself states that he will sit only if political events require his interven- tion. Count Herbert Bismarck has told somo of his friends that events seemed likely to hasten his father's presence in the reichstag. Pessimist views of the foreign situation pub- lished by the Bismarckian press generally conclude with tho suggestion that the prince's continued absence from politics is bad for the country. No doubt the renewal of the European crisisis the motive for Prince Bismarck’s resuming a leading role, Prof. Delbruck, the eminent free conserva- tive, man articlo in the Preus Sicse Jalr- bucher, predicts misfortune to the prince or the government. Either the ex-chancellor, hesays, will owerturn the eovernment to realize power or he will bo crushed aud end bis life in glcom and shame. The Hamburger Nachrichten denies that it s the intention of the prince to offer any vehement opposition to the emperor's foreign poliey, but, procecding to give authoritative viewson the situation abroad, the Nach richten discloses that the prince’s ideas are directly opposed to the policy of the govern- ment. In a discussion of the question as to whether Prince Bismarck will try to form a party, Gregenwart publishes a letter of the prince to George Winter, in which he says “Though 1 desire to see formed a great homogeneous parlinmentary majority, 1 fear it is & vain wish.” These ex slons clearly denote some in- tention to attempt to construct a potent parliamentary group. Hamburg ' socialists threaten to make a riotous demonstration in Geestemunde on the day of voting. They will send con- tingents for the purpose of ‘making u lively time. Exact details concerning Russian move- ments on the frontier prove that the incroase of troops along the Galacian frontier amounts to twelve battalions. The St. Petersburg government will acquire all the southern Russlan railways sg as to form a direct line from the Bluck sea to the Baltic. The plan is of great strategic importance. The report of the abolition of the restric- tions against Amorican pork is entirely pre- mature, The truth of the matter is that the government will not withdraw the restrictions until new Ameri- can measures are put 1uto loperation. Probably live swine will be admitted first, following the precedent of live cattle. The importation of American cattle grows apace. 1f it developes in the saiue ratio every month it _will soon assume enormous proportions, Ofiicial Hamburg figures show that the im- portasion in January were 144 head, Febru- 451 and March 811. 'he refchstag has resumed the discussion of labor reforms. The socialists, Frohme and Bebel, have renewed their acqusations that the emperor’s projects favor the masters at the expense of the men. The Reichsan- zeiger says that theJ emperor hoped that the house would seriously back his project so as to enable the reforms to come into force this year. Ho is chagrined to find that the delays of pro- codure are so great that there will bo no chance to apply the law before January next. The Reichsanzeiger is not sanguine in pre- dicting even that date, * The commission of the reichstag on postal telegraph reforr is examining the accusa- tions made by a group of journalists against the telegraph officials acting “proprio motu.” It is hardly credible, but it is true that sub- oficials sometimes refuse to accept dispatches inimical to tho government and suppress phrases or mautilate expressions which the, deom are hostile to the authorities. The di- roctor of telegraphs admits the oxistenco of a privato circular is- sued the former rocently = rovoking regulations and_authorizing employes to ex- ercise their judgment in refusing telegrams and to cut out displeasing phrases. The Berlin press has suffered loss than the pro- vincial press, but the former has joined in a vigorous opposition 1o the censorship. The commission has censured the director and the latter's orders have either been with- drawn or somodified as to leavo the press froedom. Empress Frederick has agreed to open the international art exhibition, Despite the Paris incident several leading French artists will send studies to the exhibition. The emperor will go to_Alsace-Lorraine at theend of the month, He will make a tour of the fortress, The prefecturo of Motz is preparing to give him a reception, Plan of Campaign Abandoned, Dusriy, April 11.-—[Special Cablegram to Tne Bee.|—A sensation has been produced throughout county Limerick by the action of the tenants of the Glensharrolds estates in abandoning the plan of campaign which they adopted amid great enthusiasm and with expectation two years ago. For a time funds poured in from other portions of Ireland and from America whenever tho tenants needed assistauce, and the prospects seemed bright for the success of the movement. Gradually contributions fell off, Tuhe ten- ants, after a plucky fight, had already found themselyes reduced to poverty when the final blow came with the ouibreak of the Parnell leadership quarrel and decline of or ganized funds. For the last six months they have not received & farthing from auy outside source, and they are on the verge of starvation, many deaths among them heing, in fact, directly traceable to a iack of sufti- clent food.
