no truth in the statement made in telegram from
the City OF Mexico that Cuban agents had en-
listed Mexican Army officers on the retired list and
that good many of them had left for the seat OF

he says that no Mexican officer in active service
on the retired list has nimated his desire TO go
to Cuba. and that he does know of the enlist
