Officer Tells Plans.

Berlin, April 19.-The correspond
ent of the Lokal Anzeiger has had an
interview with Mahoud Mukhlar
Pasha, who commanded the first
army corps in Constantnople on the
day Of the uprising, The general says
that the uprising was planned to take
place when he was occupied on the
Asiatic side of the Bosphorus. He
said the aid of the Sultan was prom
ised the mutinous troops and the sol
diers ran riot in the streets in aid
of the movement to overthrow the
Young Turks
The general says he was expressly
commanded not to take active meas
ures to suppress the mutiny. He
says he resigned when proclama-
ton of amnesty was made and he
escaped after an attempt had been
made on his life.
Mahmoud is of the opinion that the
soldiers supporting the Young Turks
will be received as rescuers if they
wait until the soldiers In Constan-
tinople became unbearable TO the
populace.

boys with Justiniano Chaves when
he was killed, were drunk when he
saw them short while after the kill

also said that Chas. Webb and Jack
Donahue were so drunk that they
could no walk straight when he saw
them Immediately after the killing.
He was in the county jail, he sad,

sage from webb, who said that there
was trouble over there and that an
officer was needed. Luccro walked
over 10 the garden and met Judge
Romero and the two companions of
Chaves. Both Garcia and Perea were
cryig and told him that Donahue nad
killed Chaves. When they reached the
body, Sheriff Armijo. Webb and Don
ahue came up. Garcia became hys-
terical and wanted Lucero to let him
have a gun. He said that he would
kill Donahue.

peated his story and on questions
from Attorney Baca as to how the
body Of Chaves lay, consented to lay
down on the floor and show the jury.

he saw beneath the body.
