MISS curry AFRAID.
Max Braveman Is Bound Over To Keep
the Peace Toward Her.

That "tru" love never runs smoothly
was well illustrated yesterday after
noon in the police court room. where
Max Bravcnan Of Augusta, formerly
of this city, was arraigncd on charge
Of threatening to do bodily harm to
Miss Leona Curry. Max WAS arrested
in the afternoon by Marshal Andrews
who found the defendant in Augusta.
."Ycs am afraid of him. said Miss
Curry. when questioned by Judge Lar
rabce: ''he threa tened to do me up, -
use his own words.
Max tcctifed that he and Miss Curry
had been Intimately acquainted Tor sew

CURED frequently. He denied the
charge OF threatening to Go BODILY Earn

said on the highest authority that there

proportions of a general conilaSratioi1.
Another interesting statement from
official sources was to the effect that

plantations and properties had express

government under the terms Of the

Havana. Sept 11.-So far as war de
Neiopmeuts went. today WAS one Of The
quictcSt since the outbreak of the in
Surrcction; but the public interest VIZ;
deeper and discussion more animated

The governments outright declaration

Of conversation. That fighting off Il

spread throughout the provinces is not
doubted i'll any quarter. The fear of
an attack by the insurgents on Uavan;t
is spreading, and there are ;unlors
more or less authentic from all dircr-
lions of new uprisinGS in various quar-
tcrS.
This afternoon the government forces
in Havana paradcd through the priu-
cipal streets and were greeted with
some enthusiasm. The parade, which
was headed by the LIST Artillery Band
consisted of 400 mounted Rural Guards,
clad in the regulation khaki uniforms.

If blue, trimmed with white, GOO iGfan-
try, Rural Guards ard volunteers, and

two machine gun batteries. the whole
presenting smart and imposing aD-
pcarance. The parade was reviewed
by President Palma at the palace.
Particular plans have been prepared
for the dcefncc of outskirts of the city
1t is not generally believed that
here is a sufficient insurgent force near
Havana at present to attempt to enter
the city. and many doubt whether the
insurgents will have sufficient nerve
in any event to attempt to traverse the
long distance from the suburbs to the
pace with the certainty Of death to
many of the attacking forces on the
way.
All the publishers and editors CT
Newspapers were summoned this after
noon TO the office of the secretary Of
the interior and informed that while
the suspension of constitutional rights
had not affected the customary liberty
of the press the publication Of any
thing that might be construed as in
cerdiary or in any way melting to rev
olUtion would not be tolerated.
Tho news that the United States is
sending one or more warShipS TO cuba
is exciting great interest here. There Is
general belief that if marines ar"
landed to protect American property

Washington Sept. 1.-THE critical
situation in cuba is absorbing the at
tention Of the administration to the ex-
clusion Of all other foreign topics as in
Dictated by the activity Of the officials
in the state navy and war depart
mcnts. The President at oyster Bay is
keeping in close touch with every de-
vclopment Of the revolutionary move
mcnt.
The development of the day WAS
the admission that the American cruiS-
or pcg Moin"s. which sailed yesterday
hastily from Norfolk, has gone south
ward to Key. West with the ultimate
purpose of proceeding to Havana if de-
vcinpmcntG within the next two days
seem to warrant such action. At Key
West the Des Names will be about
eight hours run from Havana and
while waiting there Commander Halsey
will be in close communication with the
navy department, prepared to immedi-
ately carry out any request from the
department OF state. There is II" inten-
-tiOn in this movement of the DeS
Moines of showing any partiality by the
American government towards one side
or the other in the present conflict In

serve rs an asylum in case of need and
be at the disposition of the American

She is not formidable craft. being

respects for contingencies III Cuba. the
fact is carefully concealed ut the de-
rartment. hut it is known that the am
bition of the general board is to Keep

it is believed that there will be no dit
