that not one OF those whom Gen. Diaz
raised up as his assistants in govern
ing Mexico, and who prospered and
grew rich in the shadow of his great
ness, were with him when he died.
Jose Yves de Limantour, former Mex
lean minister of finance, is in London;
Francisco De La Barra, former pro;is-
ional president of Mexico, and older
of other important positions, and Gull
lermo De Landa, former governor Of
the federal district in Mexico, are in
Barritz, France Scarcely anyone out
side the family knew Of the serious
ness of Gen. Diaz's illness or that he
was in Paris.
The end seems to have been brought
about by the failure OF the heart,
weakened by an attack of grip last
year.

GEN. PORFIRIO DIAZ DEAD
Former President of Mexico PaSse!
Away in PariS-Ruled Mexi-
cans S5 Yelrs.

Paris, July 2.-Gen. Porfrio Diaz,
former president of Mexico, died here
early tonight.
Gen. Diazs wife, Sonora Carmen Ro-
nero Rubio Diaz, and their son, Por-
frio Diaz, Jr., and the latter's wife
were by his bedside when the end
came.
Gen. Diaz began to fail rapidly about
three weeks ago and, while his death
was not unexpected, owing to advanc-
ed age and recent falling health, the
crisis came suddenly this afternoon.
Porfrio Diaz, Jr., and his wife were
hastily summoned and arrived at the
bedside only few moments before
the end, which came at o'clock to-
night.
Col. Diaz in announcing the death Of
his fad2er said that he was unable
to state the nature of the trouble, but
expressed the opinion tnat co1npH-
cation of diseases, due to advanced
age, was the cause.
Two tragic circumstances marked
the death of the exiled ruler. Owing
to the troubled state in Mexico it has
been judged impossible to send the
body home with all that ceremony
which would nave beitted one of his
figure in American history, and fur
ther, Col. Porfrio Diaz, Jr., has tried
in vain to inform his sisters, Sonora
Ignacio De Latorre and Sonora Rincon
Callardo, now in Mexico, of their faith
er's death.
They Had All Left Him.
No less tragic, peri: aps, is the fact
