three hours. The Progressives as

over 1880 men with him. Many of
them had modern rifles; they were
but scantily supplied with ammunt-

His plan was to take the city at
daybreak To this end, early in the
night, he started about 800 men into
town from three directions, One of
the three columns came by water, just

ON the main pier Of the port, They
wandered in by twos and threes, con-
cealing their arms; they met at the
big rooted market, breaking in and
going to sleep on the floor TO walt the
signal for the attack. They had been
told that at daybreak, when the stores
opened, they were to rush through
the business district, helping them
selves, setting fires everywhere and
killing white men and gendarmerie.
In the midst OF this turmoil the main
column of 1900 outside the city was
TO attack the barracks, the custom
house, the Bank of Hayti and the
Presidents palace. Benoit told his
people that hopeless as a pitched bat
tle in the open with the marines and
gendarmerie might be, IL would be
easy to wipe them out after they had

Only about i50 of his 800 'shock

There were no materials for a panic.
The marines, in patrols and In larg-

streets swiftly to the posts arranged

market, where they had no right to
be; he ran TO the door and was set
upon by machete men who slashed
him horribly and cut him down, but
not until he had emptied his auto
