CONSERVATIVES WIN.
Scored "a Victory In the Cuban Consti-
tutionaI Convention.

Havana, March S.-The Cuban con-
stitutional convention me. Thursday
afternoon for a formal discussion OF
the Platt amendment. The conServ-
ative element scored victory. 1t
was decided to continue the sessions
of the convention and to refer the
amendment to the special committee
on relations, with instructions to
bring in a report.
Gen. Sanguilly contended that the
intention of the original call was an
nulled by Gov. Gen. Woods instruc-
tions at the opening of the conven-
ton, when delegates were asked to
give only an opinion.
The radical element did not flock
to Sanguilly as had been expected,
and the conventions action in refer
ring the question to the special COM
mittee on relations indicates viii
lingness to recede from the former
attitude. 1t is evident that many
of the delegates still hope the amend
ment will be changed, but there is no
bitter feeling now apparent. 1t is
doubtful whether the convention will
ever agree to accept the amendments.
1t is generally believed that the
crisis, if any existed, is passed and
that by tbs me the cNmmittee re-
ports the present excitement VIII

REFUSED TO BE BRIBED.
Navy Yard Officials Cause the Arrest
OF an Alleged DIsh0nest Contractor.

New York, March S.-B. c. Ander-
son, proprietor of the Jefferson brass
works, of Brooklyn, was arrested
yesterday on an Indictment handed
down by the federal grand jury,
charging him, on two counts, with at
tempting to bribe officials at the
brooklyn navy yard to pass bills rem
dered by him for goods not delivered.
He was held in 81 800 bonds.
The first Indictment against Ander-
son charges him with having at
tempted to bribe Lieut.. Wilfred v.
Powelson, who is in charge of the
department of electrical equi pment
of the navy yard and member of
the board of inspection of that de-
partment. Anderson, it is alleged,
made a specific order of $4,000 to
Powelson if he would audit and GER
tify a bill for goods and materials
which Anderson never delivered.
The second indictment is based
upon similar testimony from \. j..
Porter, chief clerk of the department,
who alleges that ANDERSON placed on
his desk an envelope containing a
roll of bills, and which were rejected
Anderson holds a contract with the
government for the supply of certain
brass castings for use in the navy.
In fulfilling this contract with the
government it is alleged that ne
sought to secure payment for large
quantities of goods through false
vouchers and which he did not de-
liver.

at Moline, Ill. - Occupants Manned
by Falling Weights.

Moline, H., March s.-Two men
were killed and seven injured yester-
day by the fall of an elevator in the
works of the Moline Plow Co. The
dead:
Aryid j. Burgston, back of head
crushed by falling weight, dean re-

amputated at wrist.
John Apen. knee and ankle hurt.
\. w. Brunstrom, left arm broken
in four places and badly mangled.
Gustav Moffstedt, left arm br0S;en.
The accident occurred while the

way. letting the cage fall from the
first story to the basement.

HAWAlpS LEGISLATURE.
Holds Its Sessions In the Former Home
of Kings and Few OF Its Members
eau Talk English.

Honolulu, March /, via San Fran
cisco. March s.-The first territorial
Legislature of Hawaii began its ses-
sions in Honolulu, February 20, and
has been in session since.
j. 4. Akina, independent, a Hawaii
an-Chinese member from the island
of Kauai. was elected speaker Of
the house. and Nicholas Russell, of
Hawaii. a white man, was chosen
president of the senate.
With both houses in control of the
independent home rule party and
containing majority of native
Hawaiians. the legislature has al
ready been the scene of some re-
nrarllable proceedings and the end of
the session promises to see many
very radical measures adopted,
among those to which the controlling
party is committed being a liquor dis
pensary law. a taxation system that
Will be a combination of single tax
and income tax doctrines. an election
law based on proportionate represen-
tation, and law excluding from the
territory all persons who may arrive
here afflicted with consumption OF
leprosy.
The question of languages is an
other source of trouble. The or
ganic act says that all proceedings of
the legislature shall be conducted in
the English language. Half of the
members cannot speak English, ana
Hawaiian Interpreters have been em-
ployed in both houses. 1t is the
opinion of some lawyers that this
will invalidate all proceedings, and
this matter will come before the
courts when some laws have been
passed.
Chief Justice Frear and Gov Dole,
who were members Of the commission
that adopted the rule in question,
have expressed the opinion that it
intended to provide that no language
but English should be spoken. The
independents claim that laws and
resolutions, etc, shall be in English.
Every measure and every speech is
being given in both English and
Hawaiian.
The house meets in the throne
room of the old palace building, now
occupied by government officials. The
speakers chair is the former throne
of Hawaiian monarchs.
The steamship Lealandia has ar
rived here with 100 Porto Ricans
from Port Los Angeles. Three of
the immigrants died on the way. The
immigrants are being sent in steam

several trips as a carrier of Porto
Ricans. and that at least 5000 more

WIRELESS TELEGRAPRY.
Experts of Agricultural Department
Claim 10 Have Devised ii system that
Is Almost Perfect,


Is Almost Perfect.
Washington, March S.-Since last
autumn the navy department has sus-
pended the experiments in the en-
ployment of wireless telegraphy as "a
means of communication between
naval vessels and between vessels and
the shore. Up to this time none of
the warships have been equipped
with permanent plant. While it
may be true that Marconi, who is in
the United States, may, while here,
communicate to the navy department
some proposition looking to the in
stallation of his own system of teleg-
raphy on our naval vessels, the navy
department has not yet engaged him.
Rear Admiral Bradford, the chief
of the equipment bureau, which
naturally would install any such
means of communication, has had
conferences with some of the most
eminent electricians in the United
States as to the availability of the
wireless telegraph for naval use. but
so far nothing like the ideal system
has been found.
The latest proposition has been
broached by the department of agri-
culture. Secretary Wilson. hearing
that the navy was casting about for
serviceable system of telegraphy,
has written Admiral Bradford to
notify him that the agricultural de-
partment has been experimenting for
some time with wireless telegraphy
and has attained remarkable results.
His experts assert with the greatest
positiveness that they have evolved
a system radically different from
Marconi's and of far greater eff
cheney. For obvious reasons the de-
tails of the process are kept secret,
but it is proba bic that within a short
time a practical exhibition will be
made on board of a naval vessel.
The bureau of equipment has
considerable sum at its disposal to
cover the expenses of installing all
kinds of electrical appliances, aside
from those connected with the me-
chanical department of the ship, and
when Secretary Long gives the order
part of this will be spent i'm trying
Secretary Wilson's experts device.
The outcome will be watched with
the greatest interest by all naval
men, particularly in view of the an
nouncement that not only Great Brit
ain but Germany and the other Euro
pean maritime powers already have
ordered the installation of wireless
plants in their navies.
