Convention Hall. Columbus, o., July
10.-The democratic state convention
was held here under peculiar circum-
stances. All the more conservative
elements had combined in the prelim-

THE REPUBLIC OF CUBA.
The War Department Has Received
a Copy of the Constitution of
the Republic of Cuba.
THE DOCUMENT IS BEING TRANSLATED.
The p,att Amendment Appears as nm
Ordinance Appended to the Com
stitution, which the Government
of Cuba VIII Embody in u Treaty
with the United States.

New York, July 10.-The war de-
partment has received an official copy
of the constitution of the republic of
Cuba, a v a Washington dispatch to
the Tribune. duly authorized by Gen.
Wood and the proper authorities and
the document is now being carefully
translated into English by the expert
linguists of the insular division. The
chief interest naturally centers in the
manner in which the Cuban conven-
ton has incorporated the so-called
Platt amendment in the document. 1t
appears from the official draft that
the convention has formally con-
formed to all the requirements. TAX
ing care, however, to do so with least
possible injury to u condition of Gu
ban self-respect. The eight articles
of the Platt resolution, which were
enacted by congress as an amend
ment to the last army appropriation
bill, are not made n part" of the ON
stitution in a sense of entering bodily
into its composition, but they appear
as ian ordinance appended thereto"
following the yoluminous articles OF
the fundamental law of the land,
without comment or explanation
other than the simple title, "appen-
dix
As n further concession to the pub.
lie pride manifested by the Cubans,
the last article of the Platt resolu.
ton is changed somewhat.
As congress adopted it, this article
read:
"NIII-That by way of further as
surance, the government of Cuba will
embody the foregoing provisions in q
permanent treaty with the United
States.
THE Cuban convention has stricken
out the words, that by way Of
further assurance" and the article is
left to assert with simple directness

the American indemnity claim against

considerably exceed the amount of
the indemnity actually paid, but our
government has expressed itself sat
isfed with the payment. 1t ssumes

ton, the Turkish government paving
down a lump sum of S95, 900 and leay-
