President Clinton traveled with U.N. Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali to the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince to oversee the transfer of authority for the country's security from American troops to a U.N. peacekeeping force. But what should have been a foreign-policy triumph for the Administration was marred by the assassination three days earlier of a leading opponent of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's--and suspicions that a Cabinet-level Haitian minister was linked...

...livid" White House this morning. Booth says U.S. officials fear the release of such lists, compiled with dubious information, only undercut U.S. efforts in Haiti. Besides, she adds, such "hit lists" already abound in Haiti: "We're not going down these lists and warning people," a U.S. diplomat in Port-au-Prince told TIME today. "There are a lot of lists. Lists of 100. Lists of 30. Supposed lists. Real lists. Left lists. Right lists. A lot of imagined lists. We're not going down some list of 27 and warning people. Most know who they are.

The matter has taken on political urgency because President Clinton plans to visit Port-au-Prince on Friday -- the first U.S. president to do so in 60 years. Booth reports that an FBI investigation has "apparently implicated" Beaubrun, whom the Haitian president had appointed over U.S. objections to pacify army supporters. But, the Administration official adds, "There is no reason to believe that Aristide...

Fourteen FBI agents arrived inHaitithis morning and rushed to a Port-au-Prince boulevard where an outspoken political opponent of President Jean Bertrand Aristide was machine-gunned to death yesterday. The reason for the haste: President Clinton is due to arrive Friday to declare Haiti safe enough for U.S. troops to hand over security duties to a multinational U.N. force. Aristide asked the FBI to investigate the assassination of ultranationalist Mireille Durocher Bertin.
