Orleans massacre a military commission,
with General Mower as President, was
appointed to take testimony aud thor

the authorities. The testimony of May
or Monroe is discredfted, and he appar-
entity stands convicted of bearing false
witness on several points. The fact that
the massacre was prearranged, and that
rebel organizations were on hand to par

known to be that of the Washington
Artillery; third, white handkerchief
tied round the neck; and fourth, blue
ribbon in the button-ho!e.E The asser-
