fifteen persons In all, sailed from here
This morning for St. Nazaire, on the
steamship Espange. The former presi-

on the ship. The newspapers con-
ttast this evidence of wealth with the
fact that the late President Palma
was penniless when he left the presi~

There was a demonstration by
friends of ex-President Gomez before
he left. They marched through the
streets and accompanied him on tugs
to the steamer. There were several
bands in the parade, and there was
much firing of bombs, but the people
greeted the marchers very coolly.
