Perpetrated in Granada
Says Chamorro,
Female Relatives Of Insurgents
Are Imprisoned.
Wealthy Plantation Owner Whipped
And Finally Killed.

New Orleans, March 29.-Barbarities
are being perpetrated in Granada
under the direction of the MadriZ gov
eminent according TO Carlos Chamor-
70, a brother of the leading insurgent
general, Emilio ChamorrO, who arrived
here yesterday.
Chamorro declared that a wealthy
plantation owner named Caronel was
recently dragged from his home, whip
ped and finally killed, because he refus-
ed to contribute money in support of
the Madriz faction.
Both male and female relatives of
insurgent leaders, innocent of any act
ual attack on the titular government,
have been imprisoned, ChamOrro as
serts.
A stubborn legal fight is promised by
the adherentS of the MadriZ cause
against the sending out Of q proposed
expedition from this port in support Of
the insurrectionary movement. That an
extensive expedition from New Orleans
will be sent to Bluefields seems certain,
unless there should be some interfer-
ence ON the part of the United States.
Authentic reports say that hundreds
of Americans have been engaged to
carry on the warfare against Madriz.
An abundance of arms has without
doubt been secured.
An unusual feature of this equip
ment, according to well defined reports,
is that it provides for many repeating
shotguns and liberal supply of buck
shot.
