PLATT AMENDMENT PASSES
ADOPTED BY CUBAN CONVENTION
 BYYOIE OF15 TO14.
Radicals Fought Hard to the Very Last Against the Amendment-Those Fa- vOring 1t Declared Traitors and Per- jurers-SenOr Gomez Refuses to With draw Charges Against Them.

Havana, May 2S.-The Platt amend ment was accepted by the Cuban con- stitutional convention to-day by vote of 15 to 14. The actual vote was on &C., committee on relations which embod- jed the amendment with explanations of certain clauses.
 The radicals made a hard fight at the last moment and Senores Portuon- do, Gomez, and Tamayo bitterly ar raigned the conservatives. Senor Ia mayo was particularly vindictive and declared that everybody who voted in favor of the Platt amendment was a traitor to his country. The convention compelled him to retract this state ment. On several occasions personal encounters seemed imminent.
 Senor Gomez spoke for more than an hour and his speech undoubtedly won over Senores Castro, Robau and Man. dauley He appealed to the patriotism of delegates and rehearsed the long fight for independence, denouncing as perjurers all who favored the Platt amendment on the ground that they had sworn to draw up a constitution for an independent republic. Several conservatives arose and asked Gomez to retract, but he absolutely refused.
 The following delegates voted against the majority report: Gomez, Genera, Portuondo, Lacret, Manduley, Cisne- ros, Ferrera, Fortur, Robau, E. Ia mayo, Silva, Castro, Zayas, and Ale man,
 Senors Rivera and Bravo were ab- sent.
 The convention will continue it's ses- sions, which will be devoted to draw ing up the election law. La Discussion, in an extra this evening exclaims: "Now will come immediate indepen- dence!"
