NEW ORLEANS, October 19.-The Re-
publican State Central Committee to-day

of rsorganizing the Board in accordance
with the conference.
The fifteen men arrested at Coushatta,
charged with participating in the recent
outrsges, are reported to be en- route for
New Orleans under guard of Federal
soldiers.
I The Bulletin says: I'VE nave it upon
excellent authority that Marshal Packard
and District Attorney Beckwith have
conspired together for purely partisan
purposes to intimidate the people in the
parishes by causing the arrest Of num-
Der of persons under the enforcement
acts on charges trumped up for the occa-
sion.
Murder Of :. Times" Correspondent
New YORK, October 19.-The Times
has received q dispatch from its Paris
bureau ststing that Cecil Buckland, their
correspondent in Spain, has been shot by
the Republicans. Mr.. Buckland was
private secretary to Minister Jewell at
D st. Petersburg, returning to this coun-
try with that gentleman when the latter
accepted the Postmaster Generalship,
and it was on the recommendation of
Mr.. jewell that Buckland was placed on
the corps of foreign correspondents Of the

and Water.
Further About auckland.
NEW YORK, October l9.-The Times
has received no further information as to
the shooting of its correspondent, Mr..
Buckland. Intelligence ofthe affair was
Immediately communicated to Post
master General Jewel, whose secretary
Mr.. Buckland had been in Russia, and Il
special dispatch from Washington to the
Times SAYS that in the absence of
definite particulars, Governor Jewell
could only con lecture that Buck
land was shot OH the pretence that he
was a spy with a concealed purpose,
which is very probably a determination
to prevent the publication of any letters
or information from the Csrlsst camps.
As Mr.. Buckland and his cOmrsde, Mr..
Gerard, are Englishmen, the duty would
devolve upon England Of demanding from
Spain whhtever explanation and restitu-
tion may be just and necessary there is
no basis for interference by the United
States government. The action to be
taken by Englrnd depended much upon
the attitude of the press in that country,
and Governor jewell hoped that its
voice would be unanimous for prompt
and decisive measures.
