THE CATALAN PLOT
GARIBALDI BITTERLY DENOUNCED. “LONG LIVE THE COLONEL.” (Pres* Association— By Telegraph-Copyright) PARIS, January 22. M. Torres, in defending Colonel Macia, shook the court room when he dramatically turned to Garibaldi, thundering: “Don’t evoke the memory of your comrades of the Argonne lest the dead rise from their shrouds and murmur from their tombs their disgust and horror of you.” He concluded; “Go, Garibaldi, and resume your place alongside the assassins of Matteotti.” When the applause died down Garibaldi’s counsel cuttingly referred to M. Torres’s useless cruelty, and recounted the history of the Garibaldi family, causing Ricciotti to hide his face and quietly sob. The judgment was greeted with applause, accompanied by shouts in various languages of “Long live the colonel.” —A. and N.Z. Cable.
