Travellers who have come up from

allowing the execution OF Gen Fran
cisco de p. Alvarez, who was cap
tured in the fiEht when the Mexican
troops were alleged to have killed
Gen AurelianO Banquet. in command
OF the reliE Diaz forces The reason
for this feeling is that the federal su-

Gen. Alvarez an amuaro, or stay Of

rama and the military went ahead and
shot the rebel prisoner, disregarding
the courts order. Ii is said this feel
