WILL THE
CUBANS YIELD?
1'rcMiIcnt of the Cuban Constitutional
Convention Says Xo Resolution
of Senate is Distasteful.
SkwYokk, March 2. Mendes Capote,
the president o( tliu Cuban constitution
al convention, is quoted in a dispatch to
the World as saying, not in his own of
ficial capacity, but as a member of the
convention, relative to the Cuban situa
tion and the island's relations with the
United States :
"I regret that the senate has passed a
dit refolution. It is most distasteful and
benny a total misunderstanding of the
situation of Secretary Root that the
Cohans must agree to the concessions
proposed.
"1 do not believe that the convention
will yield. Personally, I will never con
cede coaling stations or the right to con
trol our foreign airairs. They would
mean interference in local affairs at any
time and also the maintenance of unheard-of
relations. We ask only the
fulfillment of the promise of the United
States, which was accepted as it was
laaJe.
"I am surprised at the utterly fahe
Statement in the American press, which
appears to be campaigning agiinsl us.
It has systematically created the im
pression that we are ignoring President
McKinleyV expressed desires and failing
to embody in ttie constitution his
opinions as to the relations which should
exist between Cuba and the United
States. On the contrary, the convention
was instructed toebnsider those opinions.
Subsequently there was a further sup
pression of facts and a fabrication of
statements in the attempt to convince
Americans that we should accept the
terms which Secretary Root presented.
Having rejected those, thesenate's action
is intended to frighten us. Whether it
will do so remains to lie seen.''
A demonstration has been planned for
Sunday to show approval of the conven
tion's uttitude and to pledge support to
its policy.
lief that there was nn expressed desire
on thu part of the Cubans to make the
concessions.
"That wo should surrender our purses
on demand would be no surplice, be
cause, hv force one is hanged. But that
we should wish them taken is expecting
too much. The delegates have been ae
logical and dignified as the government
which rules by virtue of intervention."
Among the tens of thousands whohave
used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for
colds and la crippe during the past few
years, to our knowledge, not a single case
has resulted in pneumonia. Thos.
Whitfield & Co., 240 Wabash avenue,
Chicago, one of the most prominent re
call druggists in that city, in speaking of
this, says: "We recommend Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy for la grippe in
many cases, as it not only gives prompt
and complete recovery, but also counter
acts any tendency of la grippe to result
in pneumonia." For sale by BlBkeley,

Will Hermann Go?
Washington-, March 2. -An afternoon
paper says that 8enator Sboup and a
number of other western senators who
want to see Binder Hermann retained as
commissioner of the general land office,
have spoken to the president about it.
For several days past there have been
more or less rumors in the air concern
ing the probability of Hermann being
his own successor. There are some dif
ferences existing between the secretary
of the interior and the commissioner of
the general land office in which western
sonaiors generally support the com
missioner. If Secretary Hitchcock re
mains in me caoinet, tnis trictlon may
cause the retirement of Hermann. But
more than all else that will settle the
the question will be the decision of
Senator Mitchell when he arrives. Prob
ably the house members of the Oregon
delegation will indorse Hermann for
retention, and it is believed that Senator
Simon feels kindly toward him. If
Mitchell insists, and the entire delega
tioti should be in line for Hermann, he
will remain unless the friction between
himself and the secretary becomes too
great to be withstood. Already the
friends of Assistant Commissioner
Richards, who is from Wyoming, and a
Western man, are urging him Hermann's
place, if there should be a vacancy.

Snider, of Crittenden, Ky., "it seemed
it would strangle before we could get a
doctor, so we gave it Dr. King's New
Discovery, which gave quick relief and
permanently cured it. We always keep
it in the house to protect our children
from Croup and Whooping Cough. It
cured me of a chronic bronchial trouble

Havana, March 3. Last evening, after
the demonstration in front of the Marti
Theater, wuero a torchlight procession
composed of members of the national
republican and popular parties were re
viewed by the members of the convention,
the procession, 5000 Etrong, went to the
governor-general's palace, where a dele

tition to President McKinley urging
absoluto independence for Cubit,
The demonstration was originally in
tended as a rebuke to the United States

adopting the Cuban amendment, but no
such feel inn was displayed at the palace.
