through clouds of burning cinders at
the risk of catching fire, in order to
reach the terror stricken people
ashore. But, as already announced,
she succeeded in bringing to this port
456 people, mainly former residents of
the village of LIE Precheur. This was
on Saturday last. Since then the
steamer, as the result of other daring
trips, has succeeded in bringing many
other persons to Fort de France. On
Sunday she rescued 923 Rersons, and
piloted the French cruiser Suchet and
the Danish cruiser Valkyrien, who
took on board 1,500 persons.
The Pouyer Quertier has distributed
to the sufferers large quantities of bis

Severe Fighting Precedes the Flight OF
Ex-President Sam.
Port au Prince, Hayti, May 14.-Fur-
ther fighting occurred in the streets
here before and after midnight. Some
of the leaders of the revolution have
retired to the United States legation.
The situation is very serious. The
whole population is armed and insists
on the immediate departure from the
country of Former President Sam.
q Clashes between the partisans Of the
numerous presidential candidates con,
tinued most Of the afternoon. The
followers Of General Saint Folk Colin,
attacked the adherents Of General
Defy, the military commander here.
The firing was severe for about an
hour, but so far as known very few
were killed or wounded. General Defy
was compelled to evacuate the Hotel
de la Place and retreated to the pal
ace. whore he barricaded himself and
his followers, having previously se-
cured good supply OF ammunit tion.
& Some time before midnight there
was another outbreak OF firing and
this time the casualties were some

The food supply is so small that
with the utmost caution it cannot last
long among those who are here al
ready, to say nothing of those who
are still to come.
All the district for miles around ST.
Pierre is desolate waste. Even the
whole appearance. of the country has
been transformed. Where there were
hills there are now deep crevasses,
and whre, there were cultivated val
leys there are hills. It is not believed
that there are any persons left alive

the south coast. How many were lost
in endeavors to escape in small boats
to other islands will never be known.

Former President Sar,, Tancreda
Auguste, the minister OF the interior
and of police, Genral Defy and M. C.
lie Conte. the minister, of agriculture
and public works. had gathered their
forces in the palace, at about MID
night, where their position was
strengthened by the fact that they had
the presidential guard on their side.
Opposed to this party was General
Saint Folk Colin, at the head Of d
large body of armed citizens. The lat
ter are determined that the members
of the former government of Hayti
shall embark at once on the French
mail steamer. If they do not do so it
is almost certain that the fighting will
recommence and will be continued
with the greatest severity.
EARLY in the morning M. Tancrede
Auguste seemed to have abandoned
the Sam party, for he sought safety in
the United States legation. His exam
pie was followed by NJ Brutus Saint
Victor, the minister of foreign affairs
and public instruction, who also
sought the protection Of the United
States flag.
