EL PASO, Tex, March 18.—Gen. | Felix Diaz, who was ehot and killed near Hermosillo, Senora, yesterday, was the same revolutionist of the Carranza days, who in the early part 0¢ 1920 kidnaped and killed an Ameri- can mining man named G. A. White- ford at Tepic and kidnaped another named Otto Land, releasing the latter, according to Guellerimo Domingues chancellor of the local Mexican consul- ate. Diaz was the leader of 8,000 revolu- tioniuts in the state of Nayarit during the Carranza regime. About February, 1920, he kidnaped the two mining men’ at thelr homes at Rosamonada, taking them to Tepic. He demanded $10,000 ransom for each of them, cut- ting off three fingers from the Tight hand ‘of Whiteford ax an example of what he might do to him rhould the ransom remain unpafd. - Itomin: declared.
