If this eoverumcnt consider! tbe onestlon cf indemnity inquiry will no doubt be ma do into the character of tho alleged nnbject ot Italy killed in New Orleans, whether or not they xr(tr compelled to leave their native land under a promise t ever to return, and "wero compensated to leave, etc. Snould It be found that these men left their country for their country's good, this government weald hardl? conBent to compensate their families. It is reported that at tho Cabinet meeting to-day a letter was read from either Baron Fava or the Marquis Iinperiali. intimating that the recall of the minister was really buta leave of absence. - Baron Fva 111. Washington. April a Inquiry to-night at liaron Fava's residence, as to whether the Baron would leave for New York by a lato train, in order to sail for Italy tomorrow, was answered by the statement that he was ill. The servant at the door wonld take no cards to the Baron, and could not, or would not, say how ill the liaron was or answer any questions about his preparations for departure for New "YorK. It can be stated, however, positively, that he will not sail for Europe tomorrow. CHANGING THEIR VIEWS.

Italy's rosltlon Now Regarded With Iss Favor by Engllshrn en Salisbury as Mediator. ICopyrtelit 1331, bj tie New Tot Associated Prtts.1 London, April 8. Current opinion here Is settling more steadily against the action of the Marquis Di Rudini in trying to force the hand of Mr. Blaine in the matter of the lynching of Italians in New Orleans. To-morrow's leading high-class weeklies devote considerabla attention to an analysis of the position, and generally discuss the aOair from the eland-point of tho United States' Constitution. Tho Spectator holds that "serious thinking Americans will admit the imperfection 'cf the Constitution, and that they are hound to remedy the defect, all the more because there is a small chance of their being compelled to remedy it." Touching the talk of war, the Spectator ridicules the notion of Italy declaring war against one of the greatest powers in the world "a power capable, within six months, of buying and building a lleet that would block everr port in Italy. American ingenuity would be so stimulated to outdo itself that it would turn every steamer that could 11 oat into an improvised iron-clad." The Economist says: "The Marquis Di Rudini and his government are in a cul-de-sac. They cannot sit still; they cannot light, and they cannot obtain the redress they want without tightinir. Italy's allies ill never permit her to risk a war that would disturb European - combinations. The United States holds the exceptional position that it cannot be conquered by any power or probable combination of powers, even if all Kuropa was allied and made the attempt, but the United States also cannot conquer any great power." Baron Fava's note," says the Catholic Tablet, "begged every question at issue. The real explanation of the precipitate action of the Italian ministers must be found in the fact that they feel that publio opinion in Italy required eome demonstration." The conservative press apply the difficulty to illustrate the evil that would result from the concession of home rule to Ireland, and the comparison will have undoubted potency in electoral platforms. If autonomy should be granted to Ireland, it is argued, how could the Irish be compelled, except forcibly, to observe foreign end imperial obligationsT The Conservatives 11 in g about with delighted surprise these now reasons against home rule. A report prevailed in political clubs tonight that Lord Salisbury, on the instigation of the Marquis Di Kudini, would otter to mediate for the adjustment of difference letween Italy and tbe United States. A high Foreign Office ofticial, when asked to state the views of the government, said that the question had not been discussed, lie admitted that a communication had "been sent to Sir Julian Pauncefote to report on the qnestion, and especially as affecting the protection of British subjects. The Home correspondent of the News telegraphs: "Mr. Porter, United States minister here, has informed me that the federal government has promised to do everything possible to bring the New Orleans lynchers to trial, and that both the American and Italian governments are contident that the incident will be promptly and satisfactorily arranged.71 The correspondent adds: 'This opinion is not very general here," BIO GUNS AND MORTARS. Secretary Proctor Discusses Their Worth and Servlcablllty in Naval Warfare. Los Angeles, CaL, April 3. Secretary of AVar Proctor, in an interview here yesterday, before his departure for San Diego, raid that he did not ti?k the present war flurry would result in anything serious tvith Italy. He did think, though, that the effect of it would be to wake up Congress to tho necessity of better coast defenses and a larger navy. Guns of not less than eight-inch caliber are required, and from that up to twelve. In speaking of armament Secretary Proctor said: 'I consider the seventeen-inch guns carried by the large Italian war ships as somewhat of an experiment. They necessarily rack the ship, but without reference to their use on hoard ship they are short-lived. After tho guns reach a certain size tho increase of internal surface is very great and the immense explosive power is more likely to injure or break them. I think the most serviceable of the large guns are the eight, ten and twclvo inch. In addition to the new son factory, the last Congress made an appropriation of S4.000.000 for the purchase of large cans manufactured by Drivate concerns. That -will furnish us with 100 large pieces. New York is not without considerable degree of protection, as we have quite an eflicient torpedo service. 'With the advent of the heavily-armored ships of late years, great improvements hare been mado in mortar servioe. It is surprising with what accuracy mortars can he tired to great heights, and shots dropped straight down upon the object aimed at. The latest method of handling them is to plant sixteen mortars in square, and, after imaging carefully the location of a target, lire all of the sixteen mortars at the same instant, and it is remarkable how many of the shots will drop down on a spot no larger than the deck of a ship, whicn cannot be armored like the side on account of the great weight. One of the so mortar shots will drop through any ship afloat, and sink it.'7 Gen. JL M. Batcheldor, quartermaster of the United States army, who is with the Secretary, in talking about the present relations between this aovernment and Italy, said: "They talk about our government being unable to protect Italian citizens, when for years American citizens, and citizens of other countries, have been taken prisoneis by the banditti of Italy and held for ransom, and frequently maltreated, and yet our government has never taken any serious action in the matter. Tho only fault with our government 2 that we have been too good-natured with them." J Italy's Iron-Clad and Oar Cruisers. Philadelphia, April 3. Charles tl. Cramp, the head of tbe great snip-building linn htre, says New York is in no danger frcm the Italian iron-clads. 'They will never come over here," he said, confidently. 'In the first place, they can't carry coal enough to make such a voyase safe, and they could find no place here to re-coaL Then their great draught would make it impossible for them to do much damage on this side. They are not familiar with our coast, and would be in constant danger of grounding the moment they came at all near the coast. They carry very heavy guns. but. except for firing on a city, those gnus are not effective much over a mile, and the new cruisers recently constructed could "be very ellective by circling about the monsters and peppering them with Ionsrang rilled cannon aud drawing them into shallow water. If a shot from one of the iron-clad struck one of oar cruisers it -would, of course, do considerable damage, hut. except by chance, it is doubtful if at enrh a dittance any gunner in tbe Italian navy conld hit finch a small object as a -v-sel j?oing at.the rate of from tifteen to twenty knots an hour. Tho shallow water and the great draught of tho iron-clads

ake it practically impossible to success fully bombard New York. The Vesuvius is the only dynamite cruiser in the world, and sne couid drop one ox ner arauiy unu board an Italian irnn.Aln.d-all dancer from the latter would be over." Paymaster McC lore's Murderers. Hakkisburo. Pa., April 8. Paymaster McClure's murder by Italians in the coal regions a couple of years ago, it is intimated here, may yet become a feature of the controversy growing out of the New Orleans tragedy. The assassins secured 112,000 and tied to Italy, where they have since remained. "Red Nose Mike," one of the murderers, was captured in this coun try and hanged. The case may be cited ween the question of indemnity is considered. Patriotic Ex-Confederates. Kansas City. April 3. The Ex-Confeder ates' Social and Benevolent Association, at its meeting last night, sent the following telegram to Mr. Blaine: We. the Ei-Confederates Foetal andBenevolent Association of Kansas City, Mo., ex press the Lope that in your official dealings with the Italian rovernuient it will not be forgotten that theforiu of our government is entirely satisfactory to the people who made it, ana that as to maintaining the integrity, honor and dimity of the government there In no divisioa of sentiment aniunjr its people. CIGAKOIAKEUS WAST HIGHER WAGES. Chicago Unions VTHl otrlkeMay 1 UnlessThelr Terms Are Compiled With. Chicaoo, April 3. Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, will address a m ass-meet i ok of cigar-makers, in this city, next Tuesday evening. It will be the opening meeting of the campaign for higher wages. The International president has issued an order to all the local branches instructing them to take a vote on tbe question of affording financial aid to the Chicago branches, in case the latter should order a strike on May 1. It will be two weeks tefore the result will be known. Local officials say that it will undoubtedly be a favorable one The question will como before 825 local unions, and the total vote to 1) cast is estimated at something like SOOOr'rroni now on a series of open meetings will be held, and every effort will be made to strengthen the unions preparatory to beginning tbe struggle. Tbe rate of increase asked will be $1 a tbousaud on all .grades of cigars. The journeymen say that ,the plea put forward by the employers in reference to the increased cost of leaf tobacco as a reason for refusing them higher wages no longer holds good, as the cheaper grades of cigars are now made from "seed wrappers," which are of native growtb. and consequently not atiected by the tariff. Apprentices Cense a Strike. Baltimore, April 3. Two apprentices in excess of the number allowed by the union were recently taken on in the cigar factory of J. Requardt & Co. The men objected, and Mr. Requardt promised to discharge the boys. The men meantime abandoned the factory and informed him that they could only return by order of tbe union, the rules of which had been violated. He retorted that he would not allow tbe union to interfere in his a flairs, and that be would not only not dismiss the apprentices, bat would not permit the strikers to come back to work as union men. Miners' Differences Adjusted. Springfield, 111.. April a The State executive board of the United Mine-wor&-era, at its meeting in this city to-day, reached an agreement with tne operators, by which the difficulties existing in tbe Peoria district and on the line of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad are settled, the operators having acceded to the demands of the miners and agreed to pay the regular scale of 75 cents a ton; also, to consider eight hours a working day. Iron and Steel-Workers Will Q alt. Joliet, lib, April 8. It is given out that the wattes committee of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel-workers, which has been in conference with the Illinois Steel ' Company for some weeks, has orders to declare a strike on Saturday unless the company accedes to their terms by that time.

Hod-Carriers on Strike, Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Muxcie, Ind., April 3. The half-hundred members of the Hod-carriers' Union of this city are on strike. The brick-layers and plasterers refused to accede to the schedule of prices demanded for their labor, which is 2.50 per day.

They have been receiving 20 cents an hour. Their demand is for eight hours and an advance of 10 cents an hour. FOR PROTECTION AGAINST SLANDER. Minnesota Wants a Law Requiring: All Newspaper Articles to Be Signed by the Writers. St. Paul, April a The bill intended to compel Minnesota editors and publishers to put at the end of each article the name of the writer, went through the Senate with such rapidity that the editors of the State are excited to a high pitch, and a large number of them will try to prevent the bill going through tbe House. The measure provides that all articles, editorials, items, or written accounts printed in any pamphlet, periodical, magazine, newspaper, sheet, circular or hand bill which shall therein purport to give an account or give intelligence of any political, official, personal, or social event, writing or speech of any human being, living or dead, rejecting in any way upon such person's character, shall be subscribed by the full name of the person or persons who shall have written or contributed to such publication.

It also provides against any waiver clause in any policy. Proposed Monument on Lookout Mountain. Ciiattanoooa, Tenn., April SL A Cincinnati sculptor has submitted a design for a monument to be erected on the summit of Lookout mount, commemorating tho valor of both armies who fought on that historic battle-bold. Tho design comprehends a loftr shaft of marble in the foreground, with a semi-circnlsr colonnade or Grecian temple in the rear, the 'whole standing on a marble plaza.

BRITON SHOTIN VENEZUELA

Outrage on an Englishman That May Cause Trouble in South America. McCarthjita Candidate at Sligo Elected by a Good MajorityExciting Scene at the International Labor Congress. OPPORTUNITY FOR WAR, Boundary D input Leads to the Murder of an Englishman by Venezuelan Police. Panama, March a Tbe Demarara Argosy publishes tho following: From a correspondent, upon whose correctness and veracity we can place full reliance, we have received the following serious intelligence from tbe northwest district: "On tho 6th of February a man named William Campbell, a British grant-holder on the Darima, and related to a well-known and respectable Pomeroon family, went to visit an Englishman called Neames, who holds a place on the Venezuelan side of the Amacooroo river. Shortly after Campbell's arrival at Neames's house three Venezuelan police, armed with guns, and one, said to be a sergeant, armed with a drawn sword, entered Neames's house and surrounded Campbell, informing him tbat they had oome to arrest him. but tbey would not tell him wbat for. Campbell ottered no resistance. The Venezuelan sergeant ordered a policeman who was standing behind Campbell to tire at him. The policemau did so, fearfully shattering Campbell's right hand. "The sergeant then demanded a rope from Neames to tie Campbell, but Xeames refused to give him any. The police then took Campbell away with them to the inspector, who sent him on to tbe Venezuelan Governor, at Orinoco. The Governor sent Campbell back to Amacooroo, where he was liberated, no charge of any kind having been made against bim. Campbell returned at once to his grant at Barima, and reached Morawhanna Hospital on tbe 14th of this mouth, where his hand was dressed and every possible thing was done for him, but he died on the 16th lrom the effects of tbe gunshot wound. This act of tbe Venezuelan police has naturally caused a very bitter feeling against tbera among tbe settlers, both on tbe English and enezuelan side of the Amacooroo. Mr. Anson, tbe district magistrate, held an inquest into Campbell's death, and the jury re- J turned a verdict of willful murder against J the policeman who shot Campbell and the sergeant who ordered him to lire. "What has happened here is just what we all thought would happen sooner or later if tbe strained relations which exist between Great Britain and Venezuela over the boundary question, and especially the former's deliberate possession of tbe northwest district, were not relieved by a business-like settlement of the question. The representatives of tbe government of Caracas are men with more or less of a statesman-like philosophy, content to await tbe full time, although it might be very tedious, when the question shall be disposed of upon its merits, but their officers in the outlying districts, men rough and ready and incapable of exercising judicial discretion, were not to be expected to show the same degree of forbearance. The treatment Mr. McTurk received during his official visit to Guacipati was evidence enough on this point, and now the foul murder of a British colonist in cold blood, without, so far as has been ascertained after an official inquiry, the least provocation, discloses in all its grossness the bloodthirsty feeling which the average Venezuelan bears toward a citizen of Great Britain. We have no idea what our Governor has done in this matter, bnt we. hope that he has sent to demand the tmrrender for trial of the murderers, and also intimated to the admiral on the station that the services of a gun-boat may possibly be required. This is not a time to walk softly and express friendly sentiments. A brother citizen has been murdered simply because he belonged to our country, and if his death is not avenged it will be a lasting disgrace to our name. We are not confounding the Venezuelan government with the rough men who represent it at Amacooroo, but if tbat government should be unwise enough to stand between the murderers and the fate they have courted, our country should not hesitate one moment in resorting to action worthy of its name." VICTORY FOR 3PCARTHYITES. Their Slig-o Candidate Elected by a Majority of 780 Many Illiterate Totes Cast Sligo, April a The result of the polling yesterday for a member of Parliament to succeed the late Mr. Peter McDonald, as the representative for North Sligo, was announced this afternoon. The contest resulted in the election of the McCarthyite candidate. Alderman Bernard Collery, of Sligo. over tho Parnellito nominee. Alderman Valentine B. Dillon, jr., of the Rotunda ward, Dublin. The jaunting cars upon which the ballot-boxes were conveyed from the outlying districts to the town hall here were escorted by the constabulary, armed with loaded ntiee. These cars were arriving all night, the last one reaching here at.7 this morning. The work of counting the ballots commenced at 10 o'clock. The poll was found to be lighter than it was originally jndged 'to be. The polling fell oil' towards the close of the day. There were a thousand votes polled by illiterate persons and there were also a large number of spoiled ballots. Tbe latter was especially the case with the anti-Parnellite ballots. When tbe counting had been completed to-day it was stated that Mr. Collery had only four hundred majority, but tbe official announcement of tbe poll showed that the report was incorrect and that his majority was more tban double that number, being 780. The poll was as follows: Alderman Collery. 3,200; Alderman Dillon, 2,420; majority for Alderman Collery, 7S0. Tbe crowds which had been in waiting outside tbe Town Hall, in tbe expectation of hearing the final result of the election announced, were much excited when the figures were given. It was raining heavily, however, and the crowds soon dispersed after cheenne Messrs. Davitt and JSexton. Alderman Dillon's agent has lodged a petition against the returu of Alderman Collery on tbe ground tbat the presiding oflicer of the Grange polling-place unlawfully adjourned tbe polling while ne went to refresh himself. Speeches made by the Parnellitea after their defeat was known showed unabated pluck. Tbe Parnellites tried to dupe Catholic voters by tbe display of a bogus telegram from Home to tbe effect that tbe Pope disapproved tbe anti-Parnell policy of the Irish bishops, and bad detained Archbishop Walhh in that city to prevent him from interfering with Mr. ParnelL Tbe Associated Press interview with Archbishop Walsh, which was published throughout tbe country on the day after its appearance in America, bad an influence in enlightening the electorate as to the actual omnionsof the Pope and Archbishop Walsh. The events in Sligo have so widened tbe breach between Mr. Parnell and his old followers that the gulf will be forever unbridgeable. Mr. Parnell's phrases. "Foul-mouthed Ileal j," and "Mamllin Sexton," and his charge that Mr. Sexton was in a speechless condition of drunkenness on bis arrival in Sligo intensified tbe fury or tbe Nationals. Liberals Disappointed. London, April a The result of the eleo tion at Sligo has not been received with satisfaction by the Liberal leaders. Mr. Gladstone is said to be surprised as well as disappointed by tbe strength which Par nell has shown in the face of the united efforts ot tbe English Liberal party, the Irish hierarchy and the new national federation. Parnell is acknowledged to be the representative of a formidable minority. .which, while not strong enough to have its own way, is too strong to be treated with anything like indifference. A leading Lib eral member of Parliament said this even ing that the majority was one thousand short of being decisive. "Nothing could show," be said, "more strikingly the wonderful mllacnce of Parnell than tbe fact that, almost single-handed, with most of his abler lientsnaots ent from the country, and with tbe terrible weight of the O'Shea divorce upon him. he fhould be able to poll uch a Tote agaiiiMt a popular resident of Sligo with a candidate almost unknown in Sligo, and against other united

interests, making a combination mo re. powerful, to all appearances, than ever before arrayed in an Irish election." The Sligo election has not tended to restore Liberal enthusiasm for home rule, and tbe general sentiment seems to be to make home rule a secondary issue in English Liberal politics. NOISY LAUOR CONGRESS.

A Moderately-Inclined Delegate Almost Mobbed by Anarchists at Paris. Paris, April 3. During to-day's session of the International Miners' Congress the question of the advisability of a general strike was brought up, and a stormy debate over the matter ensued. The discussion was brought to a close amid sceues of the utmost disorder. The whole house was in an uproar with the Socialist and Anarchist delegations and the spectators in the galleries vociferously execrating delegate liasly. who had taken an attitude of moderation in tbe matter. It was finally decided to put the question to a vote at to-morrow's session, when the publio will bo excluded from tbe deliberations of the congress. When the session was adjourned to-day a howling mob gathered outside the building and threatened vengeance on delegate liasly for his action in regard to the strike matter. The crowd was so violent that M. liasly was afraid to face them, and he was obliged to make his escape from the building by way of a baok door. The dignilied moderation of the English delegates has given them a lead in the congress. They are in favor of avoiding a strike if possible. Mr. liurt says that the pov er of an organized general strike is tremendous, but miners ought well to count the cost before acting. This is what the continental delegates are inclined to ignore altogether. Mr. Burt is well pleased with the congress and the prospects.. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS, Germany- Endeavoring to Prevent Iteh-ln-flicted Jews from Entering the Fatherland. London, April S. A Berlin dispatch says tbat a careful quarantine, has been established on the German frontier of Posen to keep out Itussian Jews afflicted with the "Russian itch" and other disorders believed to pe contagious, from coming into Germany. It is stated that even several cases o file prosy have been, discovered among the would-be emigrants, and these were, of course, turned immediately back. It is said that the filthy habits of many of tbe emigrants are a new revelation to Germans. They do not seem to know what cleanliness is, and the conditions brought to light by the investigation of the quarantine officers are especially shocking. Where emigrants are allowed to pass the frontier a tboroush physical cleansing is generally insisted upon. Most of them are said to be destined lor America. Place for Battenbrg. London, April 3. Prince Henry, of Battenberg, had a slight attack of small-pox at Grasse. The fact was kept a secret, and his illness was attributed to his catching a cold. He is now recovering. The Queen wants to appoint Prince Henry, of Battenberg, to the post of warden of the Cinque Ports, made vacant by the death of Earl Granville. No salary is attached to the placo. but there goes with it a splendid residence and free quarters in Walmer Castle. Lord Salisbury opposes the nomination, insisting upon the Premier's risbt to appoint the warden. The Queen refuses, however, to recognize tbe Premier's power to interfere with a crown nomination. Precautions Against Nihilists. London, April 8. Tbe Czar, prompted by the recollection which the tenth anniversary of the murder of his father recalled, is showing himself more and more suspicious of his subjects. On his visit to tbe paintings of the Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, not only were the publio excluded from the building, but carriages were not allowed to approach either the galleries or the immediato neighborhood. A strong force of gen-darmes and police was posted along tbe route, and hundreds of policemen in plain clothing mingled as spies among the spectators. The Prince of Wales's Latest Hobby. London, April 8. The, baccarat scandal has forced the British Cabinet to postpone its request to Parliament for a grant to the Prince of Wales to enable him to wipe out his debts. Nothing will now be heard of the proposed grant until next Parliament meets, and then it will depend upon the composition of the House of Commons. Tbe Prince of Wales havi taken to pigeon fancying. He keeps a stud of homing pigeons, and has bad a house especially built for them at Sandringham, Fatal Explosion in an English Mine. London, April 3. A disastrous explosion in a coal mine took place to-day at Apedale, Staffordshire. Ten persons were killed outright and several others were severely injured. The bodies of the dead miners have been extricated from the portion of the mine where the explosion took place. The cause of the disaster is supposed to be the presence of tire damp in the mine and the foolhardiness of one of the miners after the presence of the dangerous gas was first discovered. Russia Accused of Conspiracy. Sofia, April 3. This city has been extensively placarded with a poster which conveys a thinly-veiled accusation of Russia as the instigator of the plot which resulted in the death of M. Baltcheff. It contains this sentence: "Our enemies, havintr despaiied of annihilating tbe country by internal revolutions, knowing they are detested by the army and the nation, now have recourse to tbe vilest means of attacking statesmen in the dark." King of Greece Will Live in England. London, April 3. The King of Greece Is about to become a guest of the Prince of Wales at Marlborough House. He proposes to acquire an estate in England, and to reside there permanently, abdicating the throne of Greece in favor of his son, .the Duke of Sparta. He has an immense fortune, due to Bourse speculations. Lavigerie's Warrior Monks. Paris, April 8. Cardinal Lavigerie's band of warrior monks will take vows for a five years' crusade against slavery at Biskra, Algeria, on Monday. Vicorate Bressac, who has abandoned the world, has been appointed superior of the baud. All will start for various points in Africa Tuesday. Impending Revolution In Costa Rica. Panama, March 26. Rumors are rife in ell the towns of Costa Rica that subsequent to the co flee crop having been gathered a general revolutionary movement will be made throughout tho republic Manlparis Defeated by the British. Calcutta, April is. Advices from Manlpur say that tbe British have attacked and carried by assault Fort Thabat, situated twelve miles from Manipnr and garrisoned by one thousand Manipuris. Cable Notes. In Madrid there are rumors of a Portuguese revolution. Advices have been received from Zanzibar to the etiect that Emin Pasha is about to leave bis province for UjijL The nortb of England iron masters have given notice of aVJper cent, reduction of wages, alleging that the cost of production exceeds tho market price 5 shillings per ton. Ouida, in a letter, defends the American copyright act as honorable to the Nation. Tbe law. she declares, has been received in an unworthy and ungracious manner by English authors, to whom it is of the most benent. Tbe address to be read in the Spanish Senate, in reply to tbe royal speech opening the se?sion, says in regard to America that it is to be hoped that tbe latest economic measures will improve the financial situation in Cuba. A census of Great Britain will be taken on Sunday. The country is divided into 35,000 districts. The system pursned widely differs from the American system. It is estimated that the total population of England fcnd Wales is .773,47i; of Scotland, 4,170.547; of Ireland, 4.770.127. The Paris Figaro declares that, beside his memoirs, the Doc De Broglie possesses the whole of Talleyrand's correspondence, from the year 1780 to the time)f his death. Tho paier adds that the Dnc De liroghe will probably publish all the writings of Talleyrand which he has in his possession.

DOST WANT-TO BE SOLDIERS

Uncle Sam Not Likely to Secure 2,000 Indians for His Regular Army. Red Msn Prefer Their Present Life to Military Kale Only the Apaches Ire Willing to Enlist The lincaid Case. DONT WANT TO ENLIST. Few Indians, Except the Apaches, Care to Don the Regular Army Uniform. Washington, April a The news received at the War Department as to the result of the eflortsbeingr made by Western army officers to carry out the provisions of the army appropriation bill, authorizing the enlistment in the regular army of two thousand Indian recruits, is very discouraging. The officers report that tbe Indians will not enlist in the infantry under any circumstances, as they abhor walking. They will not enlist in the cavalry, except as scouts, because they do not care to bind themselves to bye years' service nor to be subject to removal to distant parts of the country. Then. too. they want their women with them, and tbe great majority of the bucks are physically unfit for military service. It is doubted whether a single Indian company can be recruited in the West. But the outlook in the South is more hopeful. At Bit Vernon Barracks, Ala., where the Apache Iudians who led the Geronimo campaign are placed.it is said that all of the Indians some thirty-five or forty are about to enlist These Indians are said to be progressing rapidly in tn path of civilization, and the almost incredible fact is reported that the old Indian warrior, Geronimo, who was for years tbe terror of the West, is now.a prominent teacher m the local 8unday-scbooL and attends services regularly every Sunday morning to keep order. MINOR MATTERS. Argument of the Government In the Kincald Case Illness of Jurors. Washington, April a When the jurors in the Kincaid trial entered the box this morning two of them showed every sign of illness, and Judge Bradley, noting their appearance of suffering, adjourned tbe court for an hour and dispatched a messenger for a physician. At the end of that time the court informed the counsel that the doctors had advised that the jurors bo permitted to rest till 1 o'clock, and a recess was taken until that hour. When the court reassembled the sick jurors were sufficiently recovered to permit counsel to begin the work of summing up the testimony. Howard Claggett opened the argument in behalf of the government lie made the point that in order to constitute the crime of murder it was not necessary tbat the malice which led to tbe deed must be expressed, but that the malice might be implied. Mr. Claggett upheld tho veracity of the testimony of the government witnesses, and declared that no matter how sick and feeble Kinoaid may have been if be were so weak that he had to crawl up the steps it was murder and nothing less wben he fired the shot Asking for 1'nung Si gel's Pardon, Washington, April 3. Mr. William Corvilas, of New York, accompanied by Fifth Auditor Aberoom and Mr. Simon Wolfe, called on President Harrison to-day and presented a petition for tbe pardon of Robert Sigel, son of Gen. Franz Si gel, who was sentenced about two years ago to live years in Kings county (Brooklyu) jail for forging a pension certificate. The petition bears tbe indorsement of the grand jury that indicted, the jury tbat convicted and the assistant attorney who conducted the case. The President at once referred the papers to Attorney-general Miller. Young Si gel's friends feel quite confident of securing the pardon. Could Not Fix a Gold and Sliver Ratio. ' Washington, Aprils.

BLOOD MAY BE SUED TO-DAY. f Concluded from Ftrtt Fasrterviewed in Pittsburg to-night, but htd little to say, except that no more of bis plants had been started under supervision of guards, aud tbat be was awaiting developments. Otlicers of tbe McClure Coke Company lay the entire blame on Vicepresident Penna and Master Workman Wiso, who, they say, worked their men np by ill-advised speeches. GOV, PATTISON DEFENDED. Bis Adjutant-General Bays the MiUtli Could Not Hare Ileen Called Oat Sooner. PITTSBURG, April a Adit.-Oen. William McClelland passed through the city this morning en route from Chicaao to the scene of yesterday's riot. In an interview he said: "I notice a disposition on the part of some people to censure Governor Pattison for refusing to call out the militia upon the first request of Sheritf Clawson, a few days ago. Now they are doing the Governor an injustice, as he had no authority, under the Constitution, to call out the militia at that time. Section 22 of Article 1 of the Constitution of the State of Pennsylvania says that no standing army shall, in time of peace, be kept up without the consent of the Legislature, and tbe military shall, in all cases and at all times, be in strict subordination to the civil power. Tbat is to say, the Governor has no right to call upon tbe militia untilthe civil power 'has been exhausted in its eflorts to main tain peace. In this caee the civil authorities were still in power, and their desire to call the militia was caused by apprehension that there would bo lurther trouble, It may be generally conceded that bloodshed might have been averted had the militia been called upon, but nevertheless the Governor took 4 the right course in the matter, according to the power vested in his executive position, and should be at once freed from further censure. While the shooting is greatly to be deplored, had the militia been called out the dead might have numbered many more, and tbe general feeling then would have been as strong against the military authorities as it is now against the Governor and tbo deputies of Westmoreland county. I do not believe there will bo any further trouble. The militia will preserve order; and now that so many of the strikers have been laid low, 1 thick the majority of them, with the exception, perhaps, of a few hothads, will quietly disband and abandon all further hostilities. As to whether or not the shooting was justifiable, 1 have no opinion to give, not being familiar enough with the facts in the case. it Calls It an Unprovoked Murder. Pittsburg, April 3. Secretary Watchhorn, of tbe Miners' Union, before starting for the coke region to-day said: "From what I can understand the shooting of the strikers was an unprovoked murder. I have received a report this morning that three of the deputy sheriffs under Captain Loar themselves broke down the fence aud then shot tbe men. It certainly is not reasonable to suppose that five hundred armed men with guns, and five buudred armed with other weapons would deliberately plan an attack and then be driven away by thirteen men without shooting one of the latter. The people in the coke regions are not such cowards as that. The Hungarians, or Slavs, in the coke regions have alwuys been grossly imposed udou. They wero'induced to settle in tbe coke regions under misrepresentations, and were constantly ground down. Then, if they etrike, tbe operators employ some of tho brighter men at big salaries to go around r mong the others and try to induce them to return to work. In this the Frick Coke Company has always been especially forward. Theresultof this course is to divide the Hungarians among themselves, and to cause increasing bitterness. The coke-workers all hate Capt. Loar, for there has not been a strike in years in which be has not petitioned the sheriff of Westmoreland county to swear in his company of guards as deputy sheriffs, so that they can have an opportunity of shooting some Hungarians. Captain Loar bas frequently made that statement. We can get many witnesses to prove it." Orders Istued to the Mllltta. Harrisburg, Pa., April 8.This afternoon the official order to General Wiley was issued from the Adjutant-general's department, directing him to order the Tenth Regiment to the support of Sheriff Clawson at Mount Pleasant and to order tbe Eighteenth Regiment under arms. The order is under date of yesterday, and instructs General Wiley, with tbe forces under him, to assist the sheriff in restoring order and in enforcing the laws, and to make such disposition of tbe troops as he may deem necessary. General Wiley is further directed to see "that tbe troops are moved only in compact bodies and that no tiring is permitted, except by order of the officer in command. All other means of quieting riot and restoring order having .first been exbansted, tbe oflioer commanding the troops shall notify the rioters that they will be fired upon, unless tbey promptly disperse. Should they not disperse; tbe order to tire shall be deliberately given. Every soldier will be expected to fire with effect, and tbe tiring will becontinued until the mob disperses." The emergency having passed. General Wiley is directed to render bills for the payment of the soldiers. General Wiley sent the following teleffram to Governor l'attison lato to-night: 'No change in condition of things from last message. All is quiet. The funeral of tbe dead will take place to-morrow, at Scottdale, at 2:S0 P. M. There will, undoubtedly, be a large- attendance. Will Heud live companies of the Eignteenth Regiment; under the command of Colonel Smith, to tbat point to-night." Later this telegram was received from Adjutant-general McClelland: "Have nothing in addition to General Wiley's telegram. There has been discreet disposition of both reel men t s. Officers and men are behaving admirably, which is, apparently, having good effect. Colonel McKibben is giving good assistance." Austria Does Not Seem to Care. London. April 3. A Vienna dispatch says that very little interest has been aroused there by the reported slaughter in America of a number of Hungarians and Poles. The emigration of that kind is from the lowest dregs of the empire, and the Austrian government is the' most aristocratic in Europe, even tbe electors being of the most substantial and superior class. No otlicial information bas been given on the subiect, but it was stated on well informed authority tbat there would not be an otli cial inquiry into the matter. Violated the Allen Labor Law. LocihYirxE, Ky., April 3. Suit was filed in the federal court this afternoon against Snead t Co., iron founders, for $5,000 inalty for violation of the alien labor law. It is claimed tbey brought from Glasgow, under contract, James sturdy. John McCracken, William Arthur and 1 bomas Mulheron to work in their shops here. The firm is old and wealthy.
