SalvadOran General and Comrades Sell
Their Lives Dearly

MEXICO CITY, July 15-It is now
known that General Regalado of Sal
vador lost his life in a scouting ex-
pedition. He was in command of his
army on the border of Guatemala when
he resolved to operate within the bor-
der of Guatemala. He started out, ac-
companied only by the adjutant and a
small company, when he came unex-
pectedly on large body of Guatemalan
regulars, who overwhelmed his force.
Regalado and his escort sold their lives
dearly, making a heroic fight and kill
Ing many of their foes, but they were
exterminated. No quarter was asked.
Honduras has more than $4,000 mi
litia, mostly well armed, and should
prove a valuable ally OF Salvador and
the revolutionists.
The Guatemalan revolutionists say
they will accept any President for that
country that will be Jointly agreed
upon by President Diaz and President
Roosevelt They claim this shows they
are only lighting for the good of the
Government.
The Guatemalan Government is en-
deavoring in good faith to protect its
southern border. General Barillas, who
is admitted to be the chief of the revo-
lutionists. is still in this city There
is great interest in the war here and
public sympathy is with Salvador.
