New ORLEANS, April

.t.f NEW ORLKANS, April III.
A special to the Galveston News says /:
An American merchant OF Laredo, Mexico,
named Diamond, was imprisoned and his
lite threatened last night, by the COM
mander of the federal troops in that place,
for hesitating to contribute his property
and refusing to pay fine of 800. Col.
Merriam, of the United States army, de-
manded his release, which, after some
words, was complied with, but the Mexican
authorities threaten to kill the merchant
the first chance they get, and our soldiers
are under arms.
A later dispatch says revolutionary
party have attacked New Laredo, and stray
bullets have wounded four persons on the
American side of the river.
GALVESTON, April 10.
A special to the News says At the re-
quest of the Special Deputy U. S. marshal,
Major Merriam planted twelve FOUNDER
on the banks of the river this morning. At
l o'clock p. m the Mexicans opened hot
fire from New Laredo on our guard at the
terry, and they were compelled to with
draw. The fire then commenced upon the
gunners, whereupon Col. Sexton threw
two shells into New Laredo from his twelve
on our soldiers. An American citizen,
two men and three women Of the city are

A Shrewd Dodge.

A very cheeky escape was attempted
at the Jail Monday, by William Thomson
arrested March 18th for stealing gold
chain from Marshall & Cady. Sons
tramps were lodged in the jsll Sunday
night, and Thomson prevailed on one oil
them to exchange clothes, and let him,
Thomson, out in the morning, while the
tramp remained where his board and lodging
were free. Accordingly in the night
Thomson cut his hair short, in imitation OF
the tramp, and shaved the beard from his
face, and the exchange of clothing was
made. Before breakfast, however, the
tramp becoming frightened, went back
on his light.fingered friend, and demanded
the return of his clothes, preferring rags
and freedom to broadcloth behind the bars.
The boldness of the plan of escape would
indicate that Thomson had been in sur
roundings similar to his present ones be-
fore; he would have failed however, as
tramps are carefully examined before they
are dismissed. And now Abram says he
must watch closer than ever. The other
prisoners laugh heartily at Thomson for
the loss of his hair and beard, and he keeps
most of the time in his cell.

Bells Story Once More.
WAsHSoToS, April 10


The committee on expenditures in the
war department to-day examined Bluford
Wilson, solicitor of the treasury. He tes-
titled that he refused Bells application for
the position OF chief of the secret service
because of information received regard
ing him. Bell was employed IN the
revenue bureau to get the Hogg papers,
and told witness substantially the
same story he related to the committee. He
was not employed by the treasury depart
ment, because witness believed he was en-
ployed by the defense in the Babcock case
to look into the hands of The prosecution.
From information received from Dyer and
others witness at one time believed Sherman
was sent from New York in the interest of
the defense. Witness wrote Dyer not to
trust Bell because he believed him TO be in
the service Of Babcock and a spy on Dyer,
about the 10th or 12h of February, saying
he had been employed by the defense and
wanted employment for the prosecution.
He spoke Of the express package to Brad
ley ! the dispatches sent by Babcock sign
ed B. Finch, or Bulinch and showed him
the cypher published in the New York
Herald. 1t was identified as partly in
Luckey's handwriting, and witness was i'm
pressed with his story but he was cautious
in trusting him. Witness teegraphed to
Dyer that Bell had told a remarkable story,
etc.; to this Dyer answered If you
think Bell told the truth, send him here"
Wilson telegraphed Dyer that the man Bell
has Chambers commission in his pocket.
Dyer afterwards telegraphed to Wilson
We dare not trust the fellow of whom
you spoke on the 10Th of February"
Dyer telegraphed that it was de-
cided not to use Bell except in rebuttal
Wilson telegraphed that he was satisfied
with the conclusion arrived at. Witness
met Bell at the white house, January 10th,
and asked him why he did not 90 TO the
president and tell him the same story he
had told him ; witness told the president
the substance of Bells story. Bell once
came to witness house and told a very re-
markabie story about Avery he said
Avery had been harshly dealt with, and
been left to bear the brunt of the battle,
and was then to turn states evidence. Bell
said that Avery wanted to see the secretary
OF the treasury or the attorney general and
was ready to talk. Witness told Bell to GO
to the Encouragement with the Avery
story ; witness had some confidence in
Bells statement regarding the Batcock
case from the intimate knowledge he ap-
peared to have thereof.

The Emma Mine Investigation.

WASHINGTON, April 10.
When the house committee on foreign
affairs met this morning, Gen. Schencks
counsel submitted list of witnesses for
whom subpGnas were desired, IN order
that they might testify before the commit
tee in support of his statements and in con-
PREVENTION of Lyon. The list includes
Gen. III. II. Baxter, Mr.. eager and Mr.
Selover, and numbers nine in all. Mr..
Monroe remarked that these, together with
those for whom subp9nas had already been
issued on the application of Gen. Schencks
counsel, would make 10, and if the other
side wanted an equal number, the granting
of the present application would incur the
examination of 30 more witnesses. The
committee then went into secret session 10
decide on the application

The house committee on foreign affairs
at 1890 o'clock announced that they had

an injunction to restrain the Emma COM
pany from selling the mine.
Mr., Chiltenden read to the witness Lyons
statement that he endeavored to get Nc
Kean removed because the latter had tried
q suit in which he was personally inter-
ested. Judge Mexican pronounced this
statement utterly false.

This celebrated piano ia manufactured
by man who is both a thorough musician
and skilled mechanic, aud he has spared
no pains OF expense, in perfecting his in
strument, hence the wonderful popularity
which his piano has attained throughout

chasing piano. First, beauty and power

lied. We invite all to call at our store and
