LTavnna. Oct. f. None of ex-President Palma's intimates save the cabinet officers, his private secretary and Consul General Steinhardt had an knowledge of Talma's communication

In September to the government at Washington asking intervention, ami the greatest surprise is manifested at th fact that Falma actually suggested intervention as a solution. Vice President Mendez Capote, as an attorney, had privately advised certain for

by anybody. It was well known that

Palma was nervous and fearful, but it

was not generally believed that he
