Political Bubble About TO Burst-Five
Inciters Shot.
NEW YORK, September 1.-THE steamer
Asia, from Port Limon, arrived in port
this morning On her voyage she stopped
at Kingston, Jamaica, and Port au Prince.
Il was stated by an officer on board that
affairs politically were seemingly quiet
there, but AZ the same time a reyolu-
tionary bubble was growing, which was
liable to burst at any time. There Is
much discomfort at the methods OF Presi-
dent Hippoiyte and his enemies are con-
tinually plotting against him with the
hope Of placing Manugal at the head Of
the government. The latter is at Kings
ton, penniless, and dependent wholly upon
the bounty u his friends. The Kingston
Daily Cleaner Of August 2lst prints a
speech delivered by Hippolyte in Port au
Prince on August 9Th. The article is
headed "HiPpolyte TO His Enemies" In
very plain terms the black ruler warns
his foes that any attempts upon his life
or against he government will cost them
their lives at once and the cabled DIS
patches from Kingston, printed this morn
ing stating that five men had been shot
without the formalty OF a court-mlrtial
for melting revolution, show that Hippo
lyte was not bufting.
