FOR A CONSTITUTION.
Cubans Meet to Frame Governmental
 Foundations.

IOunuaClOnS-
 HAVANA. Nov. 6.-The Cuban consti- tutional convention met in the Maru theater yesterday afternoon at 7 o'clock Lcng before that hour the theater was crowded. Many thousands were unable to gain admitt:lvcc, and the streets in the neighborhood were blocked with peo- pie.
 General Wood and his staff, accom- panied by General F'itz-Hugh Lee and his staff, received an ovation on enter ing, the band playing "America." Senor Cisnezos and General I:irera escorted General Wood to the platform, and he almost immediately opened the conyen- ton.
 As the military governor of the island of Cuba and representing the president of the United States,' he said. ..I call this convention to order. It will be syou1 duty first of all to frame and adopt a constitution for Cuba and when that has been done to formulate what, in youl opinion, ought to be the relations be- twa;n Cuba and the United States.
 ! be constitution must be adequate to secure stable, orderly and free govern Eaent. When you have formulated the relations which, in your opinion, ought to exist between Cuba and the United States, the government of the United States will doubtless take such action on it's part as shall lead to final and authoritative agreement between the peo- pie Of the two countries to the promotion of their common interests.
 All friends of Cuba will follow you1 deliberations with the deepest interest, earnestly desiring that you shall reach just conclusions and that by the dignity, individual self restraint and wise con- scryatisln which shall characterize your nrOcpanlnrS tho (1n1city nj the (yIlh3n people for representative government may be signal!y illustrated.
 The fundamental distinction between true representative government and a dictatorship Is that in the former every representative Of the people in whatever office confines himself strictly within the limits of his defined powers. Without such restraint there cannot be free con stitutional government.

SEVERAL CLASHES TO-DAY,

Philadelphia. Pa. Nov 6.-Election day in this city and state opened with ideal weather. In this state the polls open at ' 8. m. and close at D. III. The most active interest is being taken in the cleo lion and in many of the voting pre- incts in this city an unus- ually larYe number of votes polled in the f st hour. In the third con gressiona4 district. where Representa- tive McAleer. democrat. is being Op- posed by Henry Burke, republican. the most bitter feeling prevails. With ing the first hour several clashes be- tween opposing forces took place, but there were no serious results.

VOTING EARLY AT CHICAGO.

Chicago. Nov 6.-The polls opened in this city at o'clock this morning and by o'clock it was estimated that twenty per cent of the registered vote of 4O1, TIT had been cast. The day began with the sky dull. but with clear, crisp air. The vote did not come out as rapidly as it did four years ago when it was estimated that fully thirty per cent of the registered vote was cast during the first hour. De spite the tardiness in depositing bal lots early, party managers expressed the opinion that full vote would be brought out before the closing of the polls .at I o'clock.
 Early adyiceS from throughout the state to-day show that generally fav- orable weather prevailed, and that a heavy vote was being boiled. At some points light showers were re ported. but it is not thought that the vote will be affected and at both re- publican and democratic state head quarters confidence was expressed that anti-election figures on the re- suit will be realized.
 A good deal of scratching was re- ported at several points. notably in the Cook county precincts outside of the city of Chicago, but in spite of this voting proceeded rapidly. No disturbances were reported anywhere.
