4 dispatch of the 18th from Tegucigal-
pa, Honduras, SAYS: "Gen. Longinos
Sanchez, who headed the recent at
tempt to overthrow the government of
President Rogran, and who with his
forces held the city for one week. has
been captured, and with the principal
leaders of his army, has been shot. The
revolution is at an end. President
Bogran last night had stationed a
number of cannons about the
barracks, and early this morning,
Sanchez and his imprisoned comrades,
knowing that death awaited them in
any event. made an attack fraught with
all the desperate courage of despair,
but il was a hopeless fight. After a
href cannonading the walls of the bar
racks were almost completely battered
down. There was a determined charge
by Bogran's soldiers, a brief but des-
perate hand-to-hand fight, and then all
that remained alive were prisoners.
Without the formality Of court
martial Sanchez. with several Of the
principal officers. were taken to one of
the principal squares in the city, blind
folded and stood in line, in the pres
ence Of hundreds Of the citizens. 4
firing party was told off. The doomed
men were given brief time for prayer,
then the word was given, there was a
crash of musketry and the revolution OF
Longinos Sanchez passed into history.
Sanchez and his men met their fate
without tiinchine.
