Guatemalan revolutionist, sailed from Acapulco, Mexico, to San Jose, Guatemala, in an American merchant vessel (1890). At San Jose, the Guatemalan authorities, in an attempt to arrest him on board the steamer, killed him. U. S. Minister Mizner and Commander Reiter, U. S. Navy, refused to interfere, since international law conceded jurisdiction in such cases to the authorities of the country. The Navy Department censured Reiter.
