FIERRO KILLED AS

Americans Say General Was

he tried to kill Villa at Aguascalientes.
Fierro. slayer of William Benton, a
British subject. whose death was made
an international incident a year ago.
had auarrelled with Villa. Americans
returning to-day from Aguascalientes
bring details Of the incident, which
came so near causing the death of the
Mexican leader.
Fierro fired or Villa three times in
the private car Of the general. Each
shot took effect. the Americans declare,
but all the wounds were minor ones
in the feshy part o. Villas leg and
arm. Villa vas not armed and Fterro
fired in such quick succession THAI the
general was unable 10 reach hi.A in
time TO disarm him. Physically Villa
was greatly the superior of his aid.
staff officers Of Villa. hearing the
shooting, rushed into the car. They
saw Fierro with a revolver in his hand
and Villa advancing upon him. The
aids drew their pistols and four shots
brought Fierro to his knees. Twenty
six more shots were fired into his body
as he fell.
There was no military burial for the
man who had tried to take Villas life.
The Americans say the burial was such
as the Mexicans give their foes-the
body thrown into a shallow hole and
earth hurriedIy thrown over il.
Villas wounds were not serious. For
three days he remained in his car un-
der treatment by his surgeons. and
then he resumed his military activity.
But Villa still feels the wounds, for
without the care they should receive
they are giving him annoyance.
