Frankfort. Ky. says that James ". Tate. the de-
raulting ex-State Treasurer OF Kentucky who ran
away leaving deficit OF about $4,000 eleven years
ago, Is legally dead. II not actually so. There
has always been a great deal Of mystery connected
with Tates disappearance and 1t has been alleged
by all his enemies and many OF his friends that
he was alive in some foreign country enjoying the
proceeds Of his ill-gotten wealth. The law in Ken
tucky is that after has been missing for
seven years and nothing has been heard from him
during that time he is legally dead and 1t was
under this statute that Tate's heirs recently
brought suit TO recover the insurance on his life.
The companies fought the cases bitterly until this
morning. when the attorneys for tho Connecticut
Mutual Life appeared in court and paid over 400
on the 5000 policy which Tate carried in their
company. In so doing they virtually admit the
death of the ex-State Treasurer. The other de-
PENDANTS. II IS said. will follow the example OF the

Mr. PALMA DOES NOT BELIEVE IT.
HEAD OF THE CUBAN JUNTA IN THIS Crrr
DOUBTS THE REPORTED DEATH OF GARCIA
AND THE CAPTURE AT EsPERANzA

HEAD OF THE CUBAN JUNrA IN THIS crrr
DOUBTS THE REPORTED DEATH OF GARCIA
AND THE CAPTURE AT EsPERASzA-
T Estrada Palma, the head OF the Cuban Junta
in this city said last night that he did not think
that the report from Havana that General Calixto
Garcia had been killed was true. General Garcia
had been operating In the Province OF Santiago
and had had large number OF men under his COM
mand including number OF generals OF tried skill
and courage While the report OF General Garca's
death might be true. he did believe Il could be
possibe that the General had been killed in an en-
gagement because It necessary for him to
go 10 the front In battle. he had plenty OF
capable officers 10 lead the forces ard conduct en-
gagements according 10 the plans laid out by him.
Were It true however. Mr. Palma said that he was
not likely to receive official confirmation OF IL until
tomorrow.
Mr. Palma also declared tina, ne did not believe
the report true that the Spanish forces had cap
tured the headquarters Of the insurgent forces at
Esperanza He said that in the first place the
insurgents did not have a general headquarters
at the place mentioned. nor had the Spanish Gen
era Castellano. the officer who the report says
gained the victory. many men under his command.
II was possible hat there had been engagement
between the insurgen, and the Spanish forces but
he had had no news of IL yet He would not be-
lieve anything in relation 10 the reports until he
had heard from the Cu5an leaders IN Cuba.
Mr. Palma did not appear to be worried over the
news Regarding the report tnat General Juan
Nasso PARA had surrendered TO the Spanish and
accepted autonomy. Mr.. Palma said Masso PARA
is no relative OF President Masso OF Cuba. as
alleged in the Spanish official reports. The former
Cuban officer was court-martialled some time ago
and was reduced 10 the ranks- A. the time or his
surrender he was rot IN command OF any forces
