ready to use again the armed

force that quelled the weekend

riots. At least 50 Haitians were

killd and 200 injured in that vi

olence, which followed Fignola’s

overthrow by army leaders Fri

day.

About 1,000 rioters were report

ed jamming the city’s already

crowded jails. Army sources said

many prisoners were being re

leased after screening.

Fignele told newsmen in New

York that four army offiers had

arrested him at gunpoint. He said

he and his wife had been put

aboard a Haitian army plane

bound for the United States. They

left behind seven children.

Fignole said he still considered

himself a candidate “if free pres

idential elections are held.”

yesterday after a two-hour search

by their half-sister Margaret Rudi

sill, 12. She had been baby-sitting
