Against Making Public Criticisms.
The correspondent of the New York Jour
nal at Barcelona sends the following re-
garding the movements of Gen. Weyler
since his arrival in Spain:
General de Pujols, the captain general Of
Catalonia has had a conference with Cen
eral Navarro. the military governor of Bar
celona, and with the military judge advo-
cate general. all three obeying therein in
structions telegraphed by the government.
They considered infinitely if according to
military laws there was ground for taking
proceedings against General Weyler for his
words and acts since he arrived in Bar
eelona- 1t was ultimately resolved to give
proper warning to General Weyler before
actually proceeding against him.
The late captain general of Cuba was
thereupon Immediately summoned by Gen
erai de Pujols. who gave him warning
not to visit Badalona, the manufacturing
town near Barcelona. where he intended
to maze u speech against Cuban autonomy,
and where his friends promised him a
warm reception, some factories being
owned by them. Neither did he attend la
night the performance at a small theater
where Weylerists had prepared a demon
stration in his honor and where poems
laudins him were going to be recited for
his delectatiOn- His absence created much
discomfort, small riot ensued, and police
fused to leave the theater unless the prom
fsed heroic poems were read. The people
elected took their revenge by shouting
