TAMPA. Fla, Aug. 24.-Passengers on tho
Plant line steamer Olivette, arriving tonight
from Havana. report the particulars OF an affair
occurring at Gihara. news OF which. they say.
was censored by the Government. Juan A.
Calderon, formerly a Judge at Gibara, but re-
Gently removed from his post by the military
authorities, brought to Havana report OF
the killing OF twenty men suspected OF being
bandits by the Tenth Cavalry. Calderon said
he was removed from his post because he at
tempted to investigate this case. He declared
that for some time Ernest Russell. Captain OF
the Rural Guards. and Lieut. Venegas at the
head OF a detachment OF the Tenth Cavalry.

few days ago the soldiers. according TO
Calderon's story. shot twenty OF these suspects
In cold blood. giving as the only reason that
they were afraid the prisoners were contem-
plating an attempt to escape.
He also asserts that because they attem pied
to investigate the matter the judges OF Hol-
gum. Gibara, Mayari and Puerta Padre have
been suspended by the American authorities
and that on the matter being carried to Gen.
Wood he sustained the action OF the author
tiles.
The story told by Calderon has caused much
comment In Havana One Of the passengers
brings a copy OF the HeraldO. which contains
the following editorial comment on the
matter:
If human lives have been sacrificed In the
island OF Cuba under the cloak OF authority OF
the division Of Cuba without previous trial by
jury II is time that the supreme authority ofthe
United states should institute an investigation
and If it shall be found that such Is the case
and that the constitutional rights OF American
citizens and the people having the protection
OF the American flag have been violated it is
time that a halt should be called and the
officers who have ordered the summary actions
alleged by Judge Calderon should be held ac-
countabe before the American people for the
results that will unauestionsbly accrue a. a
consequence"

PARIS. Aug. 24.-The expedition OF 1000

to have marched tonight to the relief OF the
beleaeuered garrison in Rue Chabrol proved q
fzzle. and Gu6rin. the anti-semite leader. and

supply Of provisions that tho expedition was
to carry to them. Nobody sought to explain
how the women were to get the supplies past
the guards who are keeping auerin a CLOSE
prisoner In the headquarters OF the Anti-
Semitic League. but this detail was apparently
a trivial one to those who were at the bottom
OF the movement. As a matter OF fact. only
four women with provisions appeared in the
street and they were easily persuaded to 60
away.
A manifesto was distributed In the markets
this morning appealing to the women to de-
fend the great cause Of humanity and the
men. who. fighting bravely for their principles.
were dying Of hunger and thirst. The market
women replied: We are not going TO march

Rue de Chabro There were shouts OF Death

Of GuGrin The military and police were
present in great force. and the crowd resorted
TO no overt acts.
1t was finally decided to clear the side streets.
when the crowds were most dense. and oav-
airy were ordered to charge through them. AS
the troops advanced. the people took to their
heels and quickly dispersed. Some men who
were not agile enough to escape the horsemen.
were ridden down. and as they fell. women on
passing tram cars shrieked loudly. fearing that
the men would be killed by the hoofs OF the
horses. None OF them, however. was seriously
hurt. A number Of arrests were made. At mid
night the city was quiet.
