VENEZUELAN PLOT
TO MURDER GOMEZ?
Friends of Imprisoned General
chaIbaud Say It Is Inyen-
ton of President.

WIBLEMSTAD, Curacao. June Is.
"Details of the recent political dis
turbanees in Venezuela. where a
large number of prominent men were
imprisoned or took fight following
accusations of conspiracy against the
government, reached here today.
It is stated that plot to assassi-
nate President Juan Vicente Gomez,
was frustrated by the imprisonment
of General Delgado Chalbaud and a
number of his friends. This plot was
to have been carried out at the in
auguration of the Venezuelan Auto
mobile Club a few weeks ago.
An announcement made blythe gov.
eminent says: 1.-THE plot was discov-
cred through General Manuel Corao,
who fatty refused to join in. the con-
spiracy. When invited to become a
party to the plot he started toward
A1iraflores palace to inform the Pres
ident of the danger On his way he
was shot at but escaped injury. The
Information he gave to the President
led to the Imprisonment of the plot
ters."
In circles in which General Chal-
baud is we'll known it was stated that
there was no plot of anv kind against
Gomez. The President is declared to
have Imprisoned General Chalbaud
because of jealousy and fear that he
might y become a; candidate for the
presidency next April
In connection with the approaching
campaign for the presidency there Is
much speculation in Caracas. Many
believe that Gomez will try to sue
coed himself, although such action Is
contrary to the constitution. If this
is impossible he will endeavor to Sc
cure the election of one of his trust
ed friends. In either event 1t is con-
sidered certain that some trouble win
follow.
Should disorder start General Co
mez has a great many things in his
favor. The army is in splendid con-
dition. The officers are loyal to him
and there is plenty of money in the
government treasury. Besides these
advantages merchants ins Venezuela,
who are at present enjoying great
prosperity, are not inclined to sup
port any movement which would in
terfere with their welfare
The recent trouble between Presi-
dent Gomez and the federal council
composed of ten of the best known
military leaders in Venezuela) arose
over an agreement with France,
which was rejected by the council.
although subsequently, approved by
Congress.
