The only communication received from the Itallan government, save the verbal request from the Marquis Tmperiali that a protection be afforded to the other Italians at Walsenburg, came today in the shape of a short and dignified note from Baron ai Fava, the [talian ambassador, enclosing to Becretary Gresham a copy of the report of Dr. Ciaeo, the Ttalian consul at Denver, stat- ing the facts attending the killing and the names of the victims, all five being, accord- ing to the consul, Italian subjects and not naturalized American citizens, In transmit- ting the report the ambassador expresses the hope that the Colorado authorities will take the necessary steps to secure the punishment of the guiliy parties, This note and report will be submitted to the governor of Colo- rado by the secretary, and that is as far as e can go in the malter at present. When congress meets agaln, however, jt 18 probable that the presidene will feel con- straincd to request thal an appropriation be made 1o indemnify the famiiles and relatives of the murdered men for their slaughte In the case of the killing of Italians in New Orleans four years ago the State department took the ground that an indemnity could not be demanded, but nevertheless it felt bound to yield in comity and cquity, and on the grounds recognized the principle of an in- demnity. In the present case it will make small difference, from a legal standpoint, whether the slaughtered Italians were or were not guilty o the murder of the saloon keper, for by the terms of our trealy with Ttaly they should have had a fair trial be- fore the rogular courts before being put to death, It is just such a position that the United States has taken in the case of Aguerrain Cuba, where the Spanish govern- ment was obliged, by our protest, to with- draw him from trial by court-martial and submit his cate to the civil tribunals, and tho unfortunate incident at Walsenburg may seriously embarrass the State department in its efforts to protect American citizens in foreign countries. ROME, March 15.—The Giornale tod, ferring to the killing of the Ita Walsenburg, Colo., says that the Italians were certainly in the wrong if they killed Hixon, the saloonkeeper. “But,” the Giornale adds, “‘that does not justify the summary lynching of six prisoncrs. The importance of the law is nevertheless evident and it is to be hoped that the United States will act firmly and rapldly, punishing the guilty, and give satis- faction to Ital re- s at S ARE STILL AFTER THESWAG ©1d Choctaw Clnim Revived in a New Form —McKes’s Sharp Trick. WASHINGTON, March 15.—Interest is re- vived to some extent in the old Choctaw claim, which attracted great attention five or six years ago, by the hearing now in prog- ress in the supreme court of the United States for a readjustment of the claims of certain attorneys. The case goes back for many years. It was originated through the instrumentality of the late General S. Pike and was based on a claim for lands taken from the C} Indians, but it was finally settled in 1889 by the payment of about $2,000,000 awarded by a judgment in the supreme court. While the matter was courts and in congress, a number of attor- neys and agents became Interested in I, among them being one Henry 1. McKee, who held a contract for 30 per cent of the claim, whatever it might be. After the Choctaw claim was allowed, other attorneys applied to the courls of the District of Columbia for an Injunction, which was granted, to prevent McKee collecting the entire amount from the treasury. There was an informality in the writ served upon him, however, and be collected the money called for by his contract, amounting to about $800,000, and left the country. He subsequently turned $162,000 of the amount over to the local court, but it was not sufficient to meet all the demands, and was divided pro rata among those whose claims were considered to be proved. This settlement was unsatisfactory, and the case is now being argued in the supreme court. Among those to whom pay- ments were made were John B. Latrobs of Baltimore and Ward Lamon, at one time a law partner of President Lincoln. There are five of the present cases. One is brought at the instance of McKee against the Lamon estate and the other against the Latrobe estate, he claiming that they were not entitled to anything: and by Lamon and Chauncey Black of Pennsylvania to compel a complete settlement, the fourth by the executor of the late John F, Cochrane, who was one of the original attorneys in the case against McKee, Lamon and Latrobe, and the last by James Gilfillan and others t McKee, Lamon and Latrobe, , it appears, is still absent from the country and his whereabouts are unknown. The argument, begun Wednesday after the conclusion of the argument in the income tax cases, consumed the entire day yesterday, and is still in progress. A large number of counsel aro engaged In it, Including Messrs, Jeft Chandier, J. J. Weed, Enoch Totten, Reginald Fendall, James Coleman, Nathaniel Wilson, A. B. Duvall and Calderon Carlisle, NOTICE NAS NOT BEEN SUFFICIENT, pending in the Genoral Shakespeare’ Just Where it W, WASHINGTON, March 15.—Assistant At- torney General Whitney has advised Commis- sloner of Pension Lochren that there may be somo question as to the sufficiency of no- tice glven General William Shakespeare of Kalamazoo on the order of reduction of his pension. The notice, which was sent, said it appeared from the evidence in the case that the pension was not for disabilities from gun shot wounds in both thighs, 5o as to entitle him to §72, and that it would be thercfore re- duced to $30 per month. Commissioner Lochren says the case will stand for the pres- ent as if no proceedings had been taken. As this is likely to be a test case, the commis- sloner thinks it best to leave no question by which it may be decided against the govern- ment on a techulcality. Commissioner Lochren bas not given the case his personal attention heretofore, but will take immediate charge soon. The case is likely to become us famous as that of Judge Long of Michigan, whose case will come up for hearing in the district court of appeals on May 1.

WASHINGTON, March Smith has overruled the commissioner of the general land office in a decision affecting the sclcetion of lands to complete the grants of the state of Idaho under the enabling act. The commissioner held several selections for cancellation because the particular tract se- lected was less than a quarter-section, the law providing that claims for losses must by on tracts of not less than a quarter section. The secretary states that in the cases chosen by the commissioner It appears that there are other selections by the state adjoining the tracts or less than one quarter-section and he construes the law o mean that the state shall make fts eelection in as compact a form as possible and that its lands shall not be scattered about In forty and eighty-acre tracts. When there are other selections ad- Joining making in all more than a quarter- section the secretary holds that they are valid. seit Naval Cadet Nominations Confirmed.

The va- of General Ruger to the major generaley made vacant by the promotion of | General Schofield. The reason of the presi- dent for not filling this vacancy is found in the fact that all the major generals and | brigadier generals at present are department commanders, there being just enough de- partments to give each of them one com- | mand, while if an appointment were made to the vacancy in the grade of brigadier gen- eral there would be one general in that grade not holding a command. It is generally agreed among officials here that upon the retirement of General Schofield, General Nel- son A. Miles, who {s now in command of the Department of the East with headquarters | at New York, will be placed in command of the army. In this event General Miles will | relinquish command if his department and | take station at the army headquarters here, thus leaving the Department of the East without a commander. This will make it | possible that the officer promoted to the pres- | ent vacancy in the grade of brigadier general | may be put in command of a department, thus making the full list of major generals and brigadier generals department command- ers. It appears to be the desire of the presi- dent that this plan shall be carried out so as not to break the uniformity which now ex- There will be another vacancy, however, in the rank of brigadier general occurring on the retirement of Major General McCook on | the 22d of April next, by which retirement | one of the brigadiers will be promoted, leav- ing a vacancy in that grade. This latter grade will not be allowed to remain vacant. importance which will occur before that of neral Schofield. It would be merely guess- work to predict the selections to be made by the president for the consequent vacancies. The president will bave much latitude in making his choice. The appointment could the artillery; or a civilian could be appointed it President Cleveland so desired. And then, too, he is not limited to any par- ticular grade in making the appointment, al- though it is probable that he will choose a colonel. Officials in the War department express the belief that President Cleveland will not depart from the usual course. It is not likely, though, that he will appoint a civilian, as his course in this regard was fllustrated recently when he appointed Colo- nel Lieber as judge advocate general, despite the candidacy of Assistant Secretary of War Joseph B. Doe. Thus from present appearances it seems as though the appointment of brigadier general 1t is said that Colonel Zenas R. Bliss of the Twenty-fourth in- fantry may be appointed. War department officials, however, decline to make any pos- itive statements. Should Colonel Bliss be made brigadier general this would result in the promotion of Lieutenant Colonel Jacob F. Kent of the Eighteenth infantry to the colonelcy. Mijor Clarence M. Balley, Fif- teenth infantry, would be made lieuteriant colonel and Captain Charles Hobart, Second infantry, would be promoted to major; First Lieutenant Willlam C. Butler, Third infantry, would be made captain, and Senior Second Lieutenant of Infantry George A. Detchmendy of the Sixth infantry would be made first lieutenant in the Third infantry. Should the position of brigadier general go to a colonel of artillery, the following pro- motions would result: Licutenant Colonel Francis L. Guenther, to be colonel; Major William Sinclair, to be_lleutenant colonel; Captain Edward Field, Fourth artillery, to be major, and First Lieutenant Harry R. Anderson, to captain. Senior Second Lisuten- ant_of Artillery Edmund M. Blake will be made first lieutenant of the Fourth artillery. It a colonel of cavalry is appointed as brigadier general, Licutenant Colonel Samuel S. Sumner, Sixth cavalry, would become colo- nel, and Major Samuel M. Whitside, Seventh cavalry, lieutenant colonel; Captain Henry J. Nowlan, Seventh cavalry, would be pro- moted to be major and First Lieutenant Lloyd of the same regiment to be captain. Senior Second Licutenant of Cavalry Alex- ander L. Dade, Tenth cavalry, would be made first licutenant in the Seventh regiment. MUST GET DOWN 10 BUSINESS SOON. Cheyeunes and Arapahoes Will Soon Cease to Uraw Government Rarions, WASHINGTON, March 15.—Captain Al- bert E. Woodson, First United States fn- fantry, is in Washington with a delegation of nine Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians from the agency under his charge. Captain Wood- son says the delegation is here to interview the Indian officials relative to the disposition of the tribe. Lands have been alloted to these Indians in severalty, but as yet they have made no improvements or undertaken any farming operations, although the lands are the richest in Oklahoma, In three years the treaty with these Indians will cease and the government will no longer issue rations and annuities to them. Captain Woodson says an effort must be made in the meantime to make them self supporting. They have $1,000,000 to their credit in the treasury and he will suggest that they be allowed to use a part of this amount in bullding houses on the lands and beginning farm operations.

The confer ence was called by the National Reform or- ganization and delegates from all parts of the country were Invited to be present. Only twenty-four persons assembled In the morn- Ing, and the meeting soon adjourned until afternoon, when a somewhat better attend- ance was secured, and convention officers were elected. Dr. S. D. Woods of Connels- ville, Pa,, was elected president, with a long list of vice presidents. A number of letters of regret were read, including those from Miss Frances E. Willard and ex-Governor St. John of Kansas. The first order of business the selection of a name for the new party, and during its discussion the plans for its promotion came near being distupted. Dur- ing the talk Rev, W. B. Stoddard of Wash- ington took occasion to say some ugly things about secret orders, the Masons i particular, which brought the chairman to his fest with the order for the reverend gentleman to take his seat. Rev. Stoddard hesitated for a mo- ment, and in that time was r a motion one who saw the danger of disruption and the conference resumed regular business again. At this morning’s session Dr. Wood pre- sided and several addresses on temperance were delivered. Thus far no tencts have been proposed touching on silver or political questions, The second Tuesday in March, 1896, has been fixed as the time for another conference in this city, at which arrange- ments will be made to liold a convention the following June. At this convention it is proposed to launch the new party upon a platform and present a presidential candi- date. The name for the new party was finally de- cided to be the **Home Protection Party.” Before adjournment a resolution was passed demanding that all kinds of money be on a parity, but that the government shall issue it direct to the people, instead of to the banks. taken up was COURT REINSTATED CAPTAIN CROSS. Declares the Evidence Agalnst Hlim Was Not Worthy of Creden NEW YORK, March 15.—The general term of the supreme court has reversed the de- cision of the Board of Police commissioners dismissing Captain Adam A. Cross from the police force and restores him thereto. The decision is the same in the case of Cross and Wardman George Smith, who was dis- missed at the same, timg and under similar charges, The decision fs unanimous. In granting the ncw trial to Cross, the general term says that it would be impossible to convict any man on 'the testimony of such witnesses as the women Who appeared against him. “The Schubert woman s not worthy of bellef,”” says the court, ‘‘because she testi- fled to her own former criminal action.” Cap- tain Cross was in charge of the Fourteenth precinct when he ws brought to trial by the commissioners in July last on charges based on testimony brought before the Lexow com- mittee. This is the first decision in the case of captains tried bn the Lexow evl- dence and dismissed 'by the board. -The police commissioners may-take-an appeal. GOVERNOR I8 BETWEEN TWO FIRES. Pressure of the Press on One Side and the Bark of the Bar on the Other. PHOENIX, Ariz., March 15.—The bill cur- tailing the power of the courts punishing for contempt is mow in the hands of the gov- ernor. A committee from the Arizona Press assocfation has waited upon the governor urging its approval. The bill acts to pro- tect the press by disqualifying a judge from trying contempt cases against himself and the giving of a right of a jury trial and ap- peal. The wide departure of this bill from all law precedent on this subfect and the great Interest manifested by lawyers, the courts and the press, excites universal in- terest. The opposition of the bar and the pressure of the press on the governor makes its fate a matter of concern. The governor is both a lawyer and a journalist.

It is charged that such corruption ex- sted in the assembly and lobby that over $20,000 was expended in furthering legisla- tion.

There is probably no form of brain work that is 8o exhausting, so exacting and so in- tense as the work of the great artist on the large comic papers. To turn out brilliant ideas with the regularity of machinery and yet keep their work up to the high standard set by their splendid reputation, makes fearful de- mands upon their nervous vitality. Mr, Gil- lam knows what severe work means. The nervous strain of his responsible posi- tion has at times brought him near to pros- tration and the giving up of his work.
