MUZZLING THE PRESS.



Havana Feb. 9.-Gen. Pando,s s,ddan
return on Tuesday was due to the failure
of Captain General Blanco's trim through
the east, where the latter met with a cold
reception at the hands of both Spaniards
and Cubans. AS already cabled. he i'm
mediately assembled the editors of all the
daily papers, except La Lucia. and pro-
hibited direct or indirect attacks upon an
tonomy, as well as articles of a laudatorv
/ character, which were in his opinion sar-
castlc. He had special reference to a
leading article in La Lucha commendinee
the departure of Captain General Blanca
and Gen. Pando for the field. mot with
arms, but with emissaries for the insur-
gents camps to offer money and offices
emissaries who have bribed only ATasso
general removed by Gen. Gomez for bad
conduct; Cespero, whose forces Gen
Gomez had Withdrawn from his command
and the brothers Curvo, who offered to
surrender to Gen. Weyler - terms which
he was unwilling to give them. and whose
surrender was only effected after the in
surgents had shot and hanged over TWEEN
ty Spanish emissaries sent by Gen. Blanco
and Gen. Pando."
Ihen before the editors, Gen. Pando re-
peated; 81 will do away, if necessary not
only with San Miguel (referring to The
editor OF La Lucha), but even with the
printers DEVIL
He is here now to keep the papers from
printing any news relating to the failure
OF Gen. Blanco in the field to censor the
press, and to prevent an outburst. of in
dlgnatlon from the masses of the people
over his failure to secure the surrender of
certain insurgent leaders, as loudly as
promised.
Gen. Pando's act is regarded as very
foolish non hot 4I,o IL

without previously being censored.
Even the leading editorial in Ell Pay the

staff asserts that in two recent battles,

lie said: 'If you receive any letters with
reference to the trial. whether anony-
nous or signed, II is your duty to hand
them over to the district attorney and
Won must not allow them to make any
impression upon your mind
The first witness called to-day was
Tobn Yourshekowitz, one of the HARDWOOD
strikers He said that on Sept. 9 the
strikers held a meeting at HARDWOOD and
they understood that if they could get the
Latimer miners to join them they would
win the strike. They decided not to carry
ANYTHING having the semblance of weap-
ons, and to behave quietly and peaceably.
At West Hazleton, he said, they met the
sheriff and the deputies, who pushed
them around with guns and hit several
of them. One man, and the witness at
this juncture, pointed out Deputy A. p.
Platt tore down the flag.
At Latimer the sheriff searched them,
hit two men in the front rank and tried
to fire his revolver. 1t snapped twice and
then exploded Right away there was a
volley of shots from the deputies and many
of the strikers fell.
On cross-examination witness said that
at West Hazelton the sheriff got hold of
his coat and pushed his revolver in his
face, saying: Il am the sheriff of Lu-
zerne county and you cannot go to Lati-
mer" / did nothing. L was frightened.
Steve Jusko, whose arm was broken and
head cut by blows of rife in the hands
of deputy al West Hazelton, testified that
at the time of the assault he had acted in
an orderly manner. He said the deputies
put him in the lookup for two days before
he was taken to the hospital. He was
laid up for two months.
The evidence of Michael Popsos, who fol-
lowed Jusko, was corroborative of what
had already been told about the shooting
at Latimer.
Only three witnesses were heard at this
afternoons session and only one gave evil
dence which was at all new.
Lens Kitzuki told how, on arriving at
West Hazleton with the strikers, two
deputies seized him and tore his shirt
He said a number of the men were so
frightened by the deputies threatening
them with their guns that they ran home
and did not march to Latimer
On cross examination he admitted that
the sheriff had told the strikers to go
home, and that they disobeyed him and
marched on to Latimer.
Eery BONN, an undertaken of Hazel
ton, who buried thirteen of the victims
described their wounds. saying all were
shot in the back except one, who had a
bullet in his forehead.
John Andreaski told the same story as
many others about the meeting on the
night before the shooting, the march to
West Hazelton, what occurred there and
the march on to Latimer.
