down by an assassin known as Juan Escapu-
lario as he sat at banquet in his honor at La
Bombilla restaurant at San Angel, near Mexico

Obregon headquarters announced that the
general died almost instantly. The assassin
was captured and taken to Jail.
Mexico City was thrown into the utmost ex-
citement by news of the shooting. 1t was
thought in some circles that President Gales,
in view of the death of his successor, might con-
tinue in office for another term.
The shooting took place shortly after two
o'clock this afternoon.
General Obregon's body was apparently TAX

were thrown out as guards and no one, not even
official, was permitted to enter
The newspapers confirmed that General OBJ
regon died almost instantly. He was shot by a
rs caibre pistol, and it is said five bullets en-
tered his body from close range.
President Gales is said to have gone person
ally to police headquarters to interrogate the
assassin. Then he rushed to General Obregon's
home.
General Obregon's assassin was a young
man, somewhere in his twenties.
