ITALY AND COLOMBIA.
Mech satisfaction is expressed in Rome at the action of the Italian Government in ordering Admiral Candiaol's aquadron to Cartagena fo enforce payment by the Colombian Government of the indemnity awarded la March, 1897, to Signor Cerrail, a Italian subject, by President Cleveland. The question has been pending stoce 1885, when Signor Carati was imprisoned and robbed by the Colombian authorities. After long diplomatic regotiations, Italy and Colombia agreed to submit the question to the arbitration of the President of the Ualted
States, who awarded the sum of £70,000 to Signor Cerra'l as compensation for robbery and
treatment, Of thli sam, Ero,000 was to be paid within two months and the balance wlihip nine months of the date of the award. The first tastalment was du'y pald, but the Italian Govern. ment has walted in vain for the remainder. Admiral Candlant is not expected to have imme diate recourse to violence,' ibough should the Colombian authorities prove obdarate forcible argaments will, doubtless, be employed.

A chief's son, who for 15 years had been in train log ander this very mission, was the foremost leader in the murder, and took an active part in all the atrocities which were commlited. When the nat ves had vented their rage upon their victims, they burnt their dead bodies. The rumber of Sierra Leonians-that is, educated tatives of the better type, teachers, missionaries, etc.-killed is bellowed to amount to fally one hundred. It is stated that at Tikonah the | Ualted, Methodist, Free Mission has been at- tacked, and pillaged, noiblog having been heard of the missionaries, consisting of five mea, three women, and seven children.

A chief named Momo Regers found me, and I promised blm £40 to take me down the river to a place of salety. He got his own personal servants then to carry me to Tucker's Fromon- tory. Moms Regers hid me in the buik just outside the town" of Rabol. I could hear the

Benda was in flames, and I heard that the rebels find arranged to destroy Bonthe in the raise way, The police sergeant and some of the others who left me were not heard of afterwards, I fear they were killed. The agents at Mopalma took their boats, and left me in my factory. They intended going to Bonthe, but not one arrived. All I believe were killed. There were only about 60 troops at Bonihe, and if I had been attacked by a large force, the massacre would bave been awit My filend, Momo Rogers, came into Bontho just as I was leaving.
