DISTURBANCE
Details of Trouble

Disclosure of Plot to
Assassinate Prevents
Uprising President
Gomez Is Popular
Throughout Republic 1
Willemstad, Curacao. June 13. De
tails of the recent political disturb
ances In Venezuela, where a large,
number of prominent men were Im
prisoned or took to flight Following
accusations of conspiracy against the
government, reached her- todaj
It is stated thai u plot to assassin-1
ate President Juan Vicente Gomez
was frustrated by the Imprisonment of
General Delago t'halbaud and n num
ber of his friends. The plot was to
have been carried out at the inaugu
ration of the Venezuelan Automobile!
club a few weeks ago An announce- j
I ment made by the government hays' IB
"The plot was uncovered ihrough H
General Manuel t'oreo. who flatly re-'H
fused to join in the conspiracy. When D
Invited to become a party to the 9
plot, he started toward Miraflores I
palace to Inform the president of tbe'H
danger On his w ay he was shot at I M
but escaped Injury The Information B
he gave to the president led to the MX
Imprisonment of the plotters." (B,
In circles In which General Chnl- B
baud is well known it Is stated that B
there was no plot of any kind against H
Gomez The president is declared to H
have Imprisoned General Chalbaud be-! E
cause of jealousy and fear that h" H
might become a candidate for the 1 B
presidency next April
In connection with the approach'nc ffl
Campaign for the presidency, thcreMJ
is much speculation In Caracas M.iny H
believe that Gomez will try to 9U IbE
ceed himself although such action is fm
contrary to trie constitution. If this u
is imposible, he will endeavor to se- H
cure the election of one of his trusted H
j friends. In either event it Is consid- Bfi
ered certain that some trouble will H
Should disorder break out. General H
I Gomez has a great many things In h's lfl
j favor The army Is in splendid con- H
The officers are loal to him and Rf
there Is plenty of money In the go - H
i ernment treasury. Besides these ad- H
anlages on the side of the adminls- Kj
tration, merchants In Venezuela, who Re
are at present enjoying great pros-jMJ
peril y. are not inclined to support an I
movement which would Interfere with H
i heir welfare The recent I rouble be- IH
tween President Gomez and the fed- gjjj
ral council (composed of ten of the 1
best known military leader- of Yene- Qj
zuela) arose over an agreement wi,lllB
France which v. as rejec ted by the Efi
council although subsequently ap- Rfl
proved by congress.
President Gomez resented the op- t-J
position of the councillors and Pre-'HH
vailed on congress to pass a law I"o-;D
viding that the substitute of each i H
councillor might be called upon lo J
servo even during the presence nl
t aracaa of ihe councillor himself pf.
Several of the councillors, scenting i Bj
danger to themselves In ibis move. EH
I took to flight and tbe remainder ol In
