Feud Starting Abroad

A feud which had its inception in

Jose on the vessels trip from this
city to Balboa when Luis Martinez. a
member of the crew, shot and killed
A. Lara, a shipmate, off the port of
Acajutla, Salvador.
Martinez is in custody in Acajutla.

sea.
One night the passengers heard a
few angry words and then the report
of a revolver shot. When they reached
the lower deck they found Lara dead
with bullet through his heart and
Martinez near him with a revolver in
his hand.
Later at Mazatlan two member of
the crew got into an alteration which
ended when one of the men stabbed
his opponent The man was not Sc
riously injured, owing to the fact that
a box of cigars he was hiding under
his coat prevented the knife from
