STORY INDIGNANTLY DENIED.
President Palma Says Report of Ga
 meg Being BrIbed Is Absurd.

Havana, June 15.-President Palma and General Gomez were questioned to- day with regard to the story published in the United States. that General Gomez had received S25, 900 from the administra- ton of the United States to withdraw from the presidential campaign in Cuba. and to permit the election of Senor Palma.
 President Palma indignantly denied that he had been a party to any scheme to have General Gomez withdraw from the campaign in his favor He also spoke for General Gomez. who was present when Senor Palma was questioned on this matter. The president of Cuba said that to insinuate Senor 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.

Jos, Jeshzshinik, a SIaV Killed
 by Officers at EnsIey
WAS ADVANCING WITH WEAPON
Police Attacked by Mob When They Attempt to Restore Peace, and In General Row Officers
 Are Forced to Fire.

Ensley, June 15.-(Special. )-During a general fight between a crowd of drum ken slavs and a squad of the Bnsley po- lice force last night Joseph Jeshzshinik was shot and almost instantly killed by Officers Totherow and Metz.
 For some time before the killing 1t looked as if serious trouble would result, but the death of the big Slav tended to sober the crowd of enraged men and all of them submitted to arrest and were ta- ken to jail.
 The trouble began about 12 o'clock. when six or eight Slavs and Greeks be- came intoxicated and began ti fight with each other, to the terror of the whole community In the neighborhood of Ave nue E and Twenty-sixth street Consta- ble Metz and his deputy, Walker, were summoned to queIl the disturbance. They responded and placed two of the ring leaders under arrest and started with them to the jail when they were bounced upon by the entire assemblage and forced to release their prisoners.
 Officers Summoned Aid.
 They summoned aid from the city and Night Captain W. B. Totherow and Po- liceman Bennett responded. When re- Inducements were obtained, the house was surrounded. The enraged men there upon renewed their fight, advancing upon the officers with clubs, brick bats. rocks. axes and such other weapons as could be obtained. A halt was demanded, but they continued to advance. At this juncture, Joseph Jeshzshinik advanced upon Officer Totherow with an ugly weap- on, which he refused to lay down. He was shot by Totherow and Metz. as re- suit of which he died in thirty minutes, the bullets penetrating his chest. The other drunken and enraged men quieted down and were immediately arrested and locked up.

 Jeskzshinik is said to have been a ring leader in all these fights, and his coun- trymen express but little regret over his death, saying he was a bad and dan gerous man, always ready to fight. He was about 23 years of age and leaves no relatives in this country, except brother, whose residence Is unknown,
 The coroner keld an inquest this morn- ing and exonerated the officers from all blame in connection with the unfortunate affair
 The dead man was buried this after noon, services being held over his re- mains at St. Anthony's Catholic church.

RUSSIANS PREFER
 AMERICAN GOODS
Sales During 1901 Larger
 Than Any Year on Record
REPORT FROM U, s. CONSUL
Most Effective Way to Gain Trade In Russia Is to Work Field With Intelligent Men Well Sup
 piled With Samples.

Washington, June 15.-An extract from Commercial Relations for 1901 concerning the trade of the United States with Rus sia last year says:
 Consul Henan of Odessa says that the sale of agricultural machinery and inn plements of American origin was larger in Russia in 1901 than during any year on record The effect of the increased tar if on our machinery has not yet been felt and one American firm alone did a business which passed the one mil lion dollar mark. The city of Odessa has been a heavy purchaser of our goods in connection with the new public hos pital now under construction.
 1900 Radiators Bought.
 Among the articles bought were 1500 radiators for heating purposes; these came under the increased tariff on Amer ican manufactures and the town authori- ties appealed to the minister of finance to permit the radiators to enter at the duty which prevailed at the time of pur- chase, as they were for a public pur- tion and intended for the poorer classes. The request was refused. Agricultural machinery of certain kinds, including steam threshers, are admitted free, and our harvesters. binders, mowers, reapers and horse rakes are so favorably known as to defy competition.
 On the whole, American blows, drills, seeding machines, corn planters, cultiva- tors, farm wagons, fodder choppers, etc, are not to be found in Russia. The consul says there Is no reason why they should not meet with a ready sale except blows, which are brought by the German fac tories and are in some favor. The con sul general adds:
 Prefer American Goods.
 As a rule Russians prefer American goods and machinery, which command better prices than similar goods made in any other portion of the world. The fact that a man Is a citizen of the United States, has American goods for sale, in- sures him an audience with high govern ment officials as well as an opportunity to show his goods and explain their merits. Germany is our most active trade competitor in Russia. Besides agricul- tural machinery we sent to Russia type writers, bicycles, saws, steel rails, cotton, rosin and hickory lumber, iron wheels, etc.
 The most effective way to gain trade in Russia Is to work the field with intelli- gent men, well supplied with samples who can familiarize themselves with Russian business methods and inform themselves as to the financial standing of the people with whom they propose to deal.
