President Zelaya. were tortured before
being shot, are untrue.
The facts were in the possession Of
the state department at Washington a
month ago and it was generally sup
posed here that the details Of the trag-
edy had been gwen publicity through
official channels. AS it is, advantage
has been taken OF the opportunity in
some instances to paint a picture more
interesting than truthful.
The glory Of Captain Anibal Chaves,
who refused to. obey an order to take
command of the firing squad, is dimmed
by the light of known facts. Generals
Toledo. Medina and Irias had implored
Zelaya to abandon his purpose OF shoot
ing the Americans.
Zelaya, however. could not be influ
enced, and General Toledo finally or
dered Captain Chaves not TO assume
command Of the squad.
Chaves chose to obey Toledo rather
than the president. and as consequence
was arrested in held in Jail for SIX
weeks, Upon his release Chaves made
the most of the episode.
Groce and Cannon were notified OF
the death sentence at 1890 o'clock on
the night of November Is. They were
executed at 10 o'clock the following
morning. AS they were marched out
of the fortress a drizzle of rain fell.
On the way to the scene of execution
they passed the open graves that had
been prepared for them. At one time
Groce stepped out Of the line of march
and pleaded with General Medina:
"Do not shoot me; am brother
Mason
Cannon quickly seized his companion
and, pulling him back into line. said:
'.Brace up, old man; we have no
chance under zclaya's orders
Standing In the center of the square
formed by 100 soldiers, the two men
heard their sentence read from the
four corners, together with the usual
warning In such cases;
HAnyone displaying evidence of sym.
pathy Will be shot IN similar fash
ion -
The hands of the condemned men
were bound and their eyes blindfolded.
Cannon shook his head. attempting to
prevent the bandage being placed over
his face: but his protest was unavail-
ing. They were seated on low bench,
side by side The firing squad was
made up of twelve soldiers, who .ad-
vanced in three rows within SIX feet
of their victims. Captain Constantine
SaenZ was in command and instructed
two soldiers at the right to fire upon
Groce and two soldiers at the left to
fire on Cannon.
All four bullets were effective. Groce
was shot through the heart and death
was instantaneous. The bullets in.
tended for Cannon fore the breast and
abdomen He survived his wounds a
few seconds. When the body of Groce
was buried blanket hid the features,
but the body of Cannon was buried
without any protecting cover.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29,-Statements
made by former President Zelaya that
United States Varines participated In the
battles between the government troops
OF Nicaragua and the revolutionists were
received here tonight with amusement.

place, there were none at all. So far
as the statement goes that the men
were deserters from American war yes
