THE HAITIAN MINISTER
Makes Explanation Of Recent Inter-
national Episode.


Mr.. Leger, the Haitian minister here, has
made an explanation of the recent inter-
national episode at Port au Prince. involv-
ing an attack on the French and German
ministers and the presence Of warships in
consequence to procure reparation, which
throws an entirely different light on the
affair. depriving 1t of any such anti-foreign
animus was at first attributed to 1t.
The minister's advices, just received from
Haiti, show that the incident occurred as
follows:
Before the executive mansion at Port
au Prince there is a road which Is closed
after dark to all pedestrians and carriages.
ION the evening of the 21st of June two
carriages were seen on that road. 1t was
dark, the sentry could not see the occu-
pants of the carriages and could not then
know If they were foreigners or natives.
The coachman, not hearing or not taking
any notice of the warning Of the sentry.
the latter, to avoid using his rifle, thought
fit to throw a stone in the direction of the
carriages. When, the next morning, the
report was made that the occupants of the
carriages were the French and German
ministers, the officers Of the guard and the
sentry were punished and the secretary for
exterior relations called at both legations to
express regret and apologize in the name
of the government"
Minister Powell has since reported to the
State Department that the incident has
been satisfactorily closed.
