A Bribery Yarn.

The latest canard Is to the effect that
Gen. Gomez was bribed to withdraw
from the canvass for the presidency Of
Cuba by the Washington administra-
ton paying him the sum OF S25, 900,
thus assuring the election of President
Palma.
Abiding to the item Secretary Hay on
Saturday said that not until his attention
was called to the story that day had he
received the slightest intimation of It
from any source. Secretary Root thought
the story was undoubtedly an exaggera-
ton of Gen. Woods action In granting a
pension to Gen. Gomez. The statement
that Gen. Wood had paid Gen. Gomez
money to withdraw from the Cuban
campaign, Secretary Root said, was
absurd on Its face, as Gomez was one Of
President Palma's warmest friends.
President Palma Indignantly denied
that he had been party to such scheme
to have Gen. Gomez withdraw from the
campaign in his favor. He also spoke
for Gen. Gomez, who was present when
Senior Palma was questioned on this
matter. The President of Cuba said that
to insinuate that Gen. Gomez had been
bought off by bribe of S25, 900 was to
question the honesty and integrity Of
Gomez and himself and that such at
tacks would pass unanswered.
