Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States, Transmitted to Congress, With the Annual Message of the President, December 9, 1891

Marquis Imperiali to Mr. Blaine.

Legation of Italy,
Washington, March 19, 1891.

Dear Mr. Blaine: In compliance with your kind request, I am instructed by Baron Fava to forward herewith to your excellency a translation of the cablegram the minister has just received from the Marquis di Rudini.

Believe me, etc.,

Imperiali.

[Inclosure.—Telegram.—Translation.]

Marquis Rudini to Baron Fava.

Rome, March 19, 1891.

Corte cables authors massacre brought to justice. Necessary Federal Government should notify us officially thereof. Please apply for indemnity, which hope will be granted without hesitation. Simple declaration, however friendly and cordial, can not be considered sufficient satisfaction, which must consist of a positive reparation.

Rudini.
