Garcia, and perhaps some of the other
leaders of the Cuban patriots now in this
city, for violation of the neutrality laws,
is a possible outcome of this Investigation.
Cubans are badly frightened, and where
yesterday there were dozens of swarthy
patriots chattering Spanish and declar-
ing that the cause Of Cuba hbre was
bound to win despite all disasters, to-day
it is hard TO find anyone who will admit
knowing anything about the Hawkins, or
having had anything TO do with her.
The Times tomorrow Will publish an
authoritative statement on behalf of the
Cubans regarding the Inflated Garcia eX-
pedition. The expedition, according to
the Times authority, was not fghtlng
one. The men on the steamer J. W.
Hawkins were not enrolled, and the arms
and ammunition were merchandise, ac-
cording to the rulings of the courts. The
Times informant continuing, says: There
is no ground for entertaining for an in
slant belief that a traitor seuttled the
Hawkins. Confronted with fact and logic
such a suggestion simply fills up the list
of theories, which is long one.''

BRuTALITY AFTER THE BATTLE.
Great Slaughter and Horrible CRU
city ut ZeitOun.


Constantinople, Jan. 3O.-Letters have
been received from Marash confirming
the stories that great slaughter occurred
in the recent battle between the Turkish
troops and the Armenians, who had cap
tured and held the town Of Zeitoun. The
exact number Of the dead is not known,
but it can be stated with certainty that
it was very large. Twelve hundred
wounded men have already reached Mar
ash. and many more are following them
to that place. Many of the wounded have
died, either in Marash or along the road
from ZeitOun.
A number of prisoners have been taken
to Marash. Their treaAment was some
thing awful. All sorts Of indignitieS We're
heaped upon them, and in a large num-
Der of cases they were so shockingly
maltreated that 1t Is Impossible to pub
lish the details.
The governor of Marash has again
tried to bring about a reconciliation be-
tween the Turks and the Armenians in
Zeitoun, but his efforts have been in
vain. Most of the prominent ArmenianS
in the Yilayer have been arrested.
Constantinople, Jan. 3O.--A telegram adj

come from the chiefs of the Armenians,

from Menelik, king Of the Abyssinians,
for King Humbert and Gen. Baratieri
He appears to have been successful in
his mission. for the troops at Makaile

town without being attacked
Col. Galliano and his column have ar
rived safely at Gen. Baratieris camp, and
they will reinforce the main body of the
Italians. They brought with them their
cannon, munitions and baggage.
At the time Gen. Baratieri sent his dis
patches the Abyssinian army was adyanc-
ing and was then within thirty ldlometers
of the outposts Of Gen. Baratierfs forces.
A conflict between the opposing forces
was imminent. The Italian forces now
number $4,000 men with sixty cannon. The
Abyssinian army is estimated TO num-
Der 10000 to 60000 men, some thousands of
whom are armed with spears and others
have weapons of precision, including
Remington and Winchester rifles, and in
addition have number of pieces of ar
tillery which were used In the attacks on
Makalle. 1t is the opinion in Rome that
an engagements that will decide whether
or not the province of Tigre viii be an
nexed to the Italian colony of Erythea,
will shortly be fought.

were enticed by moonshiners to go near
Fancy Gap to cut up an illicit distillery.
When the officers arrived within 100 yards
of the still house they saw number of
men leaving there. The officers called upon
the supposed blockaders to halt, where
upon the latter began firing on the Of
ficers, who returned the fire and a fierce
battle followed. Marshal Worrell was shot
down. His deputy, Thornton, plead for
some time with the moonshiners before
they would allow him to take care

deputy went after a physician for his
friend but on his return home the moon

exists over the action of the moonshiners,
who are considered desperate characters.

JUDGE NOISE JUSTIFIED.
A Sentence He Imposed for Contempt
of Court Sustained.

New Orleans, Jan. 30.-It will be remem-
bered that a month or two ago Judge
Noise of the criminal court sentenced Dis
trct Attorney Butler to the parish prison
for twenty-four hours for contempt OF
court that Butler served his sentence,
and that soon afterward the grand jury,
then in session. indicted Judge Noise for
oppression in office. The matter came up
to-day before Judge J. II. Ferguson Of
Section u, criminal court.
Judge Noises attorneys moved to quash
the indictment, contending, among other
points, that the power Of the court TO
punish for contempt is xer,ised for two
purposes-one to vindicate ne dignity OF
the court for disrespect shown TO 1t, or
its orders. and, second, to compel the
performance of some order or decree OF
the court which it is I'm the power of the
party to perform, and which he refuses to
obey. All superior courts, or courts OF
record possess this power not subject
to the supervision or control Of any other
court.
Judge Ferguson sustained the motion to
qaash, and his action ends the matter.

REPUBLICANS OF LOUISIANA.
support of the PopuIist-sugar Plant
ers' Ticket Recommended.


New Orleans, Jan. 3O.-The committee
on credentials of the republican conven-
ton met to discuss a majority and mi
nority. report at z o'clock. The usual
wrangle resulted in the adoption of the
majority report, which represents the
Kellogg wishes.
At Il o'clock the report on permanent
organization was adopted 1t names
Thomas A. Cago as chairman, and L.
j. Joubert as secretary. A fight, which
consumed much time, was made on Jou-
bert, but he was finally elected by the
convention.
The committee on resolutions reported
at IL 80 o'clock. The resolutions adopt
the platform of the populists' convention
at Alexandria, which declares for a fair
election and the protection of American
interests and labor; also that the sugar
planters make the same declarations,
therefore recommended the republicans to
support the joint .populist and sugar
planters ticket. This ticket is headed for
governor by Capt ]. H. Pharr, a promi-
nent sugar planter.
The report of the committee will be
adopted by an almost unanimous vote.
William Pitt Kellogg and his contingent
are masters of the situation.
