GEN. ANTENOR FiRMiN.
Famous Hayden General and Simon
Usurper Is Dead.

St. Thomas, d. W. l., Sept. 10
General Antenor Firmin, who desert
ed his post as Hayden minister at
London to help overthrow President
Simon of Hayti, died here today.
Firmin led one of the two revolu-
tionary parties and was candidate
for the presidency in succession to
Simon. However, General Leeonte,
the other revolutionary chief, was the
first to reach Port Au Prince after the
success of the revolution had been as
sured and he assumed the Presidency
before Firmin could muster sufficient
strength to give him a fighting chance
at the capital.
For time a conflict between the
followers of Leconte and the adherents
of Firmin was feared. but on Aug. 4,
two DAYS after Simon had left Port
Au Prince, Firmin, who had remained
on board a vessel in the harbor of Port
Au Prince, sailed for this city, where
he had since remained.
