Chicago, June 1S.--The Taft bureau coun- tered on the Roosevelt men with two statements, one from Director Mckinley and the other from William Barnes. Jr. Mckinley pronouncement follows:

His managers attempted a coalition with the candidate of Senator LaFollette but the combination was re pudiated.

.ESTENOz FLEEING.
 SAYS GOVERNMENT
No Additional News Re- ceived From the Front
 Given Out

Havana, June 1S.-While the govern ment tonight does hot divulge any further news from Oriente it continues to insist that the insurgent leader, Es- tenoz, is fleeing before the Cuban troops with handful of followers. Associated Press advices from Santiago however, report the existence of two bodies of in- surgents numbering upwards of 2OOO men, of which 1,5OO are encamped near intention of attacking the garrison and marines there.
 That the report of the death of Estenoz is not true is shown by the receipt of a letter from him by the American consul at Santiago, protesting against what he terms atrocities of government troops" and requesting an investigation of con- ditions by representatives of the United States
 All reports indicate that other parts of Cuba are quiescent President Gomez Is confined to his apartments by an attack of fever, but his condition is not con- sidered serious.
 Santiago, Cuba, June 1S.-It is reported that 600 insurgents commanded by Es- tenoz attempted to burn the Soledad plantation near Guantanamo last night United States marines eXtinguished the flames and fired several Volleys at the raiders but apparently without effect Zafala, insurgent leader 1t is reported, was led into an ambuscade by govern ment troops near Palma Sorlano and killed.
