"All Europe has backed the note of Marquis 'di 'Rudin}, The recent cable despatch has proven to the American Government that the Italian Cabinet is not joking und that it is quite equal to the occasion in this emergency. The United States must learn that to hold a position amongat elvilized nations it is not enough to have millions of dollars, but it is necessary, as | the first condition, the sine qua môn, to be honest."
Secretary Tracy said to-day that the current rumors that orders had been sent to, all navy yards to hasten work on vessels, guns, etc., were nonsense. He would not talk on the Italian matter further than to say there was no danger of a conflict.

A series of experiments with quick-firing gune has been made at Canell's great factory in Havre in the presence of French officers and a Russian commission, ficaded by Colonel Sammisky and the Dopish General Lienemann. In an interview Generat Linnemann said a large gun was fired nine times in 45 seconds, while another of heavler calibre was discharged seven times in 51 seconds. The results of experiments, be added, justified the belief that the French factories can successfully compete with any ordnance factories in the world.

Baron Fava, the Italian Minister at Washing-stipulation that no French crews shall be engaged," ton, called for Europe this morning.
Dr. Rovers), of Il Progresso Italo-Americano, | stated to night that he had been authorised by Baron Fava to state for publication that he was only going to Rome on leave of absence" and that he is still the Italian Minister Washington,
al
Dr. Roversi further stated that he believed Secretary Blaine was a "most smart pollilclan," but in this affair he had been altogether too tricky; that his policy exceeded the limits of diplomacy. Referring to the recent despatches from Rome the doctor said he believes them to be fictitiousor else that they were sent either by French newspapers or Inspired by the Vatican.
In response to a request for his autograph before he sailed. Baron Fava sent the following card to a reporter: "Eam satisfied to express my sympathy with the United States,
ROME, April trib. The principal topic of conversation to-day has been the latent report put in circulation last evening, to the effect that unless the American Government made a speedy reply to Premier Rudini's last note, Minister Portay would be politely requested to leave Rome and the Italian Legation would be recalled from Washington.
Such an attitude on the part of the Itatlan Government seemed so unreasonable, In view of all
fall the recent developments, that last night's report was at first generally discredited. Many of the newspapers, however, gave it prominence to-day and asserted the béllef that it was sub- stantially correct. They may America will be allowed until April 14th to reply. The original report fixed to-day as the limit.
The original source of the report seems to give it increased plausibility, This, it is leamed, was a prominent member of the Chamber of Deputies who is an ardent supporter of Radini and who is believed to share his confidence.
Whether or not the Premier has actually de- clded upon the extreme course indicated, it is unquestionable that this, course is under dis- cusilon in high Government circles, and meets with favomble comment. It may be that the Deputy who started the report supposed that a. decision had been re-ched, when the subject was really only being considered, and it may be that the report was given out to test public opinion before the Cabinet should commitliself absolutely to such a grave step.
Despatches from America blot that Secretary Blaine has already precared his answer, and that It is thought likely that he has already sent R to Rome instead of through the Marquis Imperiall
BERLIN, Apili rath.
Thé electoral contest at Geestemunda, where Prince Bismarck's candidacy for the Reichstag ls opposed by candidates belonging to the Sociallat and Progressist parties, has assumed the proportions of a great political event. Prince Bismarck has accepted the candidature on the ashtrance that he' will receive a sweeping majority.
Accepting Blamarck's reappearance in the Reichstag a certain, every one asks what his line of action will be when there. He, himself asserts that he will only sit if political events require bis Intervention. Count Herbert Bismarck has told some of his friends that events seem likely to hasten bis father's pres- ence in the Reichstag. The pessimistic views of foreign relations published by the Elsmarckian press generally conclude with the suggestion that the Prince's continued absence from poli- tics is bad for the country, No doubt the re- newal of the European crisis is the motive for Bismarck's resuming a leading role.
Professor Delbruck, the eminent Free Con servative, in a printed article, predicts mle- fortune to the Prince or the Government. Either the ex-Chancellor, he x171, will over turn the Government to realize ħli
power or he will be crushed, and end kis ilfe in gloom and shime.
The Hamburger Nachrichten denies that it la the intention of the Prince to offer any violent opposition to the Emperor's foreign policy, but proceeds to give authoritative views on the situation abroad. The Nachrichten discloses that the Prince's ideas are strictly opposed to the policy of the Government in the discussion of the question as to whether Prince Bismarck will try to form a party,
Another journal publishes a letter of the Prince to George Winter, in which be says: "Though I desire to sen formed a great homo- geneous parliamentary majority, I fear it is a vain wish," These expressions clearly denote some intention to attempt to construct a potent parliamentary group.
The Hamburg Socialists threaten to make a riotous demonstration in Geestemunde on the day of the election. They will send contingents for the purpose of making a lively time.

LO DON, April 13th..
A big sensation was caused in the House of Commons to-night by the news that warrants had been issued against-two members for gross offenses against merailty.
One of them is Captain Verney, a retired naval officer belonging to one of the oldest families in Buckinghamshire and a member of the London County Council, who is charged with having incited a woman to aid him to lead artray an innocent giri.
Early this year a French woman, who passed under the name of Mme. Florence, was tried and convicted at Old Ballay on the evidence of the young girl whom she engaged in London to go to Paris as a goremess, and who, when she got there, was introduced to an elderly
man who made improper proposals to her,
Her name was given as Wilson. In court. In the evidence he was described as a a banker.
