He said that his state- ment that the two white men, Hadnut and Harris, Killed at Colfax, were carrying a fag of truce when shot down, and that this was really the Cause of the subsequent occurrences, was mainly founded on the testimony of James Marineti, an lvalian, Whose house Was across tne river, some 600 or 600 yards irom the Court House, but he be- lieved there was corrovorative testimony. Mr. Frye gave notice that uniess this corrobo- rative testimony was produced ne should ask that Mr, Marineti’s deposition be taken ip evidence as the only testimony on which the dag of truce theory was based, Mr. Marr said he would consult Bis associate counsel on this point, as he was not present during the frat part of tue trial. 1 wer to Mr. Frye, Mr. Marr said he did not Make a speech at Baton Rouge justifying the wurning out of the parish oMiciais: but he did say that i the results ofa fair election were wrested Jrom them by iraud there was no law that justified the people in submitting to the usurpation, and that their last resort must be an appeal to arms and to tne God of Hosts, and chat, though I bad never set & squadron in the fleid, yet, ior want of ® better leader, | mfself would lead them; | Mot take possession of the ave Office on the 14th of baie oral I foun | Vent the Governo ’s secretary — adespatch; J gave bim w p: chr ques eg! | Femoustrating about the interterence I aia Western Union @ guard there, and aid pre- ry ‘D the lines to's home; & ‘his. wa was Gt bis re- on Mr. Flanery, thy telegryph manager. business of the telegrapn I admitted the im- propriety and had the guard removed; I believe the motive in placing is there was to prevent news of what was occurring beimg sent North prematurely.
