Washington, May 27.-Presfdent
Taft today replied to President Gomez
telegram Of yesterday regarding the
attitude OF the United States toward
Cuba. He declared the American gov
ernment's activities In mobilizing war
vessels at Key West and dispatching
the Prairie with marines to Guantana-
mo was not in any sen5e an interven-
ton move.
The following Is the text Of tAe
message:
Il am sincerely gratified to learn OF
your governments energetic measures
to put down the disturbance and to
know that you are confident of being
successful. AS was fully explained to
the Cuban charge d'affaires this gov
ernment's motives In sending ships to
Key West, just as sending the Prairie
to the Guantanamo naval station, was
merely to be able to act promptly In
case 1t should unfortunately become
necessary to protect American life
and property by rendering moral sup
port or assistance to the Cuban gov
ernment. As was made quite clear at
the time, these ordinary measures OF
precaution were entirely disassociated
from any question OF intervention.

Newark, N. J., May 27.--The New
Jersey state primary election tomor-
row viii bring practically to close
the spectacular campaigns for the
presidential nomination that resulted
this year from the adoption by several
state of presidential preference laws.
The South Dakota primary is still
in the future, but 1t is believed that
the voting in New Jersey tomorrow
will mark the end of the personal ap-
neal for primary votes that Taft and
Roosevelt have voiced in many parts
OF the country. This state will choose
2S delegates to each national conven-
ton. Each district selects its own
DELEGATES, but four delegates at large
are elected by the vote Of the whole
state.
The primary law permits voters to
express their personal choice for a
presidential candidate, but the prefer
ence vote has no direct bearing UPON
the division Of delegates.
