 Robert Oxnard. yice-presldent of the American Beet Sugar Association. which Is opposing the trust. said:
 II know of no change in the general sugar situation to account for the cut. Further than this. 1 do not care to discuss the matter at present"
 In order to discriminate further agains beet sugar, the Western Sugar Refinery. which Is allied with the sugar trust. has announced that lt will entertain no orders for granulated sugar which call for over 90 per cent. of beet sugar.

 On Palma's behalf. Gen. Gomez has stated as follows:
 "The Cubans had no thought of re- ward when they were fighting unpaid and half starved. and 1t Is an insult to them now to insinuate that the election of a candidate for the Prest- dency depends upon his pledges to pay the Cuban troops"
