PEACE ENVOY DIAZ

Blueficlds. Jan. 7.-General Pedro
ANDRES Fornos-Diaz, who started out
yesterday for Managua in order to
treat for peace with President Mad
riz. met with st tragic end last night
on Greytown bar. The in which
he was attempting to make a landing
was caught by a gigantic wave and
broke a midships and Diaz disappear
"a in the sea.
The voyage that ended the life of
General Diaz was in keeping with his
career. He was a personal friend Of
President Madriz II was of the opin-
ion hat he could pursuade him to
give way to General Estrada, as head
of the government.
At first he was granted permission
TO proceed to Managua and confer
70 this end with Madriz, the provis-
ional government. however. reserving
the right to reject any agreement
that was entered into by Madriz and
Diaz.
Before Diaz could leave Blucficlds
the PROFESSIONALS began to suspect the
sincerity of his ultimate purpose and
he was stripped of official power.
though permission was given him to
go to Managua in an unofficial ca
pacity. He set out in the darkness
yesterday morning. Last night there
came a high wind and the booming
of the surf at Blucfields could be
heard - miles inland.
In this surf Diaz and his canoe came
upon the GreytoNn bar which is the
worst along the east coast. Picking
mp the frail craft a mountainous wave
ore it for a moment on its crest and
then rent it asunder and with it the.
stormy petrol Diaz disappeared.
The death of General Diaz removes
from Nicaragua a spirit whose intrep-
idity was boundlcss.
At different times General Diaz was
the friend and the enemy of Zclaya.
A few years ago he was e~ndeayoring
to make his escape incognito on board
a Pacific Mail steamer which stopped
regularly at Corinto. He was at odds
with zelaya. who ignoring the Amer
lean Rag on the liner. had Dia2 RE-
moved and made q prisoner. While
he was being taken by train TO Man
aqua General Diaz jumped from the
car, escaped in the bush ana safely
reached Honduras.
An earlier experience IN The turhu-
lent career of General Diaz occurred
on the San Juan river when again
prisoner. he jumped from "a boat seem
ingly to "a certain death among the
a|lligators and sharks. His escape i'm
bued the natives with the belief that
Diaz need never fear death IN the
water.

JUDGE MADRIZ SENDS
MESSAGE OF APOLOGY
Declaration Of Nicafaguan Exc
cutive Leaves No Alternative
But Criminal Prosecution of
ZeIaya, Belief at Washington,


by Morning journal Special LEASED Wircl
Washington, Jan. 7. - Presiden'
Madriz in a message received at the
state department late today declared
that the resentment shown by tn,
government and the people of tn,
United States because OF the execu-
ton of Groce and Cannon, American
citizens, was justified. The telegram
was received by the state department
through the navy department. II
stated that Madriz had asked Admir-
al Kimball to inform the United states
government that after Il personal study
of circumstances attending the eXecu-
tion of Groce and Cannon. he pro-
foundry lamented the violent act that
cost those men their lives.
President Madriz. the message fur
thor sets forth, declared the deed il
legal. He considered the resentment
of this country natural.
This expression from the president
OF Nicaragua, may prove OF great sig
n%ificancc. 1t is taken here to mean a
possible demand upon Mexico or upon
some other country IL Zclaya should
leave Mexico for the e~Xtradition OF
the FORMER president. DN Whose ORDERS
Groce and Cannon We're executed.
There Is a provision Of the Nicaragua
an constitution under which a presi-
dent Of that country may be prosecut-
ed criminally for unlawful acts, Mad
riz's declaration that the execution
MAS Illegal would seem, according to
n view expressed here, 10 leave him
no other than criminal pro-
cedure against Zelaya.
Members of the Central American
diplomatic colony here arc not sur
prised AT Madriz's statement. 1t IS
Aladriz's program they pointed out, to
assure the United States of his COM
plete disassociation with former Pres
ident ZelaNa. Unanimously, however,
the diplomats refuse to accept the pro-
testations of Madriz.

even a dog, so supplies had to be
packed in. a man who has never
carried sixty to a hundred pounds on
his back over rough, unbroken coun-
try can only imagine that. Ground
had to be broken and cleared. Then it
had to be prepared for sowing, and
the old methods Of Sweden and the
United States even were useless. Mar

His results were Watery caricatures
Of the potato Of m He had
got his seeds from Seattle. and he
tried again and failed again. Then he
began to farm with his head. He pro-
ceeded to educate his potatoes and
teach them to grow respectfully. This
could only be done by growing and re-
seeding. Soon he had real potatoes
and began to sell them.
Cultivation was a problem. for with
out tools it was difficult. Martin soly-
ed this problem, however, in his own
patient way. He built himself a hand
machine and pushed it himself with
prodigous labor. Later, when he had
secured a dog team, he broke them to
haul the c%ultivator. 1t was a severe
task, for he was alone. There was no
hired man-just Ole himself and the
dogs.

garden produce there would be a mar.
ket, and he set to put some seven
acres under cultivation. In nearly all
his work he had trouble with his seeds.
Those from the States would not grow
well in a soil where there were 40
inches of rainfall in a year. and so he
had to educate his turnips. his cauli-
flower, carrots, cabbages and the rest
to grow in damp soil.
The government maintains expert
ment stations, but these were and are
too few; also they are only experiment
stations, and the real work must be
done by the real farmer. Martin went
through it. all, and he built his log
house, barn and outbuildings. He cuts
his hay-tons of it-by hand and ricks
it alone. He finds time for flowers,
and these are his amusements. He
built an incubator and is raising chick
ems and is housing them in a log
house equipped with a stove. Every
