turbulent since August, 1925, when
former President Emiliana Chamorro
seized power three weeks after Ameri-

forced from office.

factions followed, save that of SANDING.
On the pretext that he needed arms
to protect his followers while passing
through the wild country to the north,
SANDING and his men kept their guns,
but instead Of surrendering them when
they reached their native mountains,
they began an organized attack on the
Moncada government and the Marines.
With the "leathernecks" that were
sent to quell SANDING and hts band
went Lieut.. Hanneken, Missourian, and
former sergeant in the famous fighting
organization. Bandit boarding was an
old story with him, for he stole into
the camp of the noted Haitian bandit,
Charlemagne Peralte, on the night of
october 81, 1919, and shot the outlaw
dead. Then, on the night Of March 81,
1920, Lieut.. Hanneken boldly went into
the camp of Osiris Joseph, notorious
bandit of Northern Haiti. and shot and
killed him. Last week he captured
