New York, April 27.-Frederick R.
Coudert, who is recognized as the lead
ing lawyer in the practice Of interna-
tional law in this country, and whose
services as counsel to the Behring sea
arbitration commission brought him
prominently before two continents, was
asked for his views Of the report that
force would be used to compel Nicara-
qua to accede to Great Britain's de-
mands. Mr.. Coudert said:

ersl Olney and others directly inter-

the courts order in the same manner as
did the public.
The complete reopening of the in.

torney General Olney and counsel for

comparison with the exhaustive hear.

The explanation now given officially
by the court Of the meaning Of its or.

full court on the mooted income tar
question may be expected.
While it is the purpose Of the So.
preme court to have the whole case re.
argued and the merits gone into at full
length in order that final disposition

ohicers, went On board the steamer in
order to greet De CampoA The news
OF the arrival Of the captain-genesal
spread rapidly and immense crowds
soon filed the streetA After being
taken lahore. the captain-general went
TO the palace and immediately aftex
began giving orders Conserving the
campaign against the insurgentA he
expresses the belief that the rebellion
will be quickly subdued, adding that
he relies upon the patriotic support Of
all classes Of people.
The general passed most of the day
in receiving delegations from the Gu.
ban corporations and the army and ma
w today. BY all Of which he has been
assured Of . hearty cooperation. To
these delegations he said be relied upon
the cooperation Of the public to obtain
peace within very short time. His
policy. he said. would be one Of strict
impartiality. He was satisfied with
the army. but said he would severely
punish any dereliction Of military du-
ties General Campos will remain
here only q few days, when he will re-
turn to Santiago de Cuba, to personally
direct operations
A reception to the captain general
was given At the capitol today. Gen
ersl Ardis, brother-in.law Of De Cam.
pos. gave the new captain-general an
affectionate welcome in the name Of
the army. the volunteers and the peo-
pie. In reply Marshal de Campos said
he knew the difficulty with which he
had to contend, but declared the insur.
rection would soon be brought to an
end. He stated that operations against
the rebels would not be suspended un-
der any circumstance He had given
strict orders to the several columns Of
government troops that they were not
to retire before the rebels unless the

would reward those who performed
meritorious actions, but he would de.
mand the exact fulfillment Of duty, and
those who did not do their duty would
be punished.
Continuing Marshal de Campos de.
clared he had come to carry On the war
as humanely as possible. He had
given strict orders that noncombatants
and their families must be treated
with respect, and, furthermore, that
the prisoners and those wounded must
be treated kindly. Outrages upon wo-
men and other immoral actions would
meet with speedy and severe retribu.
