THE GOMEZ INTIMACY STORY.

1t seems that the story that Gen. Go
mez was given $4,000 not to be a can
didate against Palma for the presi-
dency of the Cuban republic was put
into circulat ton by a former CORES
pondent of the Associated Press at Ha-
Vana. According to his story there
was apprehension that Gen. Gomez
would order his followers to take to
the woods" if he were not given what
it was thought by his admirers to be
his due, and that there was a prospect
of serious trouble on the island. That
was during the last presidential cam
paign in this country. AT Washington,
it was believed that an outbreak of
hostihties in Cuba, led by Gen. Gomez,
would endanger the success of the Re-
publican party, and so it was decided to
authorize Gen. Wood, the Governor
General of Cuba, to palacate Gen. Co
mez by paying him sum of money
that would satisfy him.
The author of the story, according
to the dispatches which have been ap-
pearing in the newspapers, says that
the money was paid by check, and he
asserts that he can now put his hand
on the check.
1t would be interesting to know what
the motive for setting this story afloat
was. The story does not appear to
have any foundation. In our Dispatch
es yesterday there was an interview
with President Palma, Gen. Gomez be-
ing present, in which the former stated
that he had never before heard of the
story, and that there was no founda-
ton for it. He said that to insinuate
that Gen. Gomez had been bribed to
withdraw from the campaign for pres
ident was to question the honesty of
both himself and Gen. Gomez. He hesi-
tated TO dignity the story by giving a
direct denial to it.
While it is not stated that Gen. Co
mez took part in the interview it is
evident that he assented to all that
President Palma said. In effect there
fore both of them declared that there
was no truth whatever in the story.
And President Roosevelt and Gen.
Wood have both denied it, All of
these denials would, seem to be suf-
ficient to satisfy about everybody that
the story was a pure fabrication.

In his article on Tips and Commits
sions," in Lippincott, John Gilmer
Speed says:
Our skirts are not entirely clean on
this side of the Atlantic, though, to be
sure, it is not yet by any means COM
mon for gentlemen or ladies to take
commissions from their tradesmen on
account of services rendered. AS to
whether it will be or not. l am not so
sure. That servants expect and exact
commissions is absolutely certain, how
ever. while ago 1 sold horse to a
friend. He took fancy to the horse
and finally bought him for four hun
dred dollars. When you send that
horse around he said, please give that
extra twenty-five dollars to my coach
man. L don't want him to lame that
horse or injure him in any way
d" Gracious 1 asked, you seem to be
in mortal fear of your coachman?'
Yes, l suppose 1 am. They are all
alike, however. Commissions on pur-
chases are the perquisites of the sta
blemen, and they have no use for a
horse about which they have not been
consulted and on which they have not
had a commission. l have had some
nasty experiences, and as this horse is
for my own riding. 1 don't want any
prejudices in the stable against him."

THE LITTLE WHITE HOUSE.

The building of the Little White
House means that the White House
proper will continue to be the residence
of the President for many years. There
is a sentiment connected with that
building which it will not be easy to
get rid of. 1t was proposed to use it
for an Office building and build a
magnificent house for the President in
another part of Washington, but there
was so much opposition that the prop
osition was abandoned, and the plan
of building the Little White House
an Office building for the President
was adopted.
This Office building will be in the
White House grounds, just west of the
White House. 1t will be small struc-
ture, one story in hight, ITO in length
and so feet deep. 1t will contain seven
comfortable. In it the newspaper men
Will have an apartment, something
which they do not have in the White
House. There will be a cabinet room
a room for the private secretary, a
telegrapher's room. a room for the
clerks, a reception room for the Of
fice-seekers and last. but not the least
important room for the President
the building will be made to look like
a small edition of the White House.
The cost of it will be about $50, 600, and
it viii be finished early in the fall.
The White House itself will undergo
many changes. A great deal of money
Will be spent upon it in order to make
it just as fine residence as possible.
OF course all of its colonial features
will be retained. When it is finished it
is probable that it will be as comfort
able as the residence Of any one Of the
rulers OF Europe.
