Secretary Root took the position that
the interpretations of the Platt amend
ment contained in the resolution adopted
by the convention and the whereases ap-
pended to it went outside of fair inter
probation of its meaning and were unac-
ceptable. In this view the cabinet con-
Cured
When asked as to what would be the
next step of the government after the
Cuban convention had been notified Of
the rejection of its action, one of the
members of the cabinet said that the gov
ernment could do nothing further until
the convention again acted, and that as
long as the conditions of the Platt amend
ment were on the statute books compli-
ance with them must precede our relin-
quishment of control of the island.
One Of the most Objectionable features
of the Interpretation is the addition of
the words saying that the action of the
United States is an amplifcation Of the
Monroe doctrine. 1t Is emphatically stated
by some Of those who have been present
at the conferences that the Monroe doc
trtne has nothing whatever to do with
the present situation in Cuba. 1t is
stated that the earnest desire of the
president is to retire from Cuba at the
earliest possible moment consistent with
the bests interests Of the people of the
Island and the future relations between
the new government and the United
States. The problem is whether with
drawal under the amended Platt law will
accomplish that result.
Three main points on which the action
of the constitutional convention is recog-
nized as unsatisfactory, it is said, relate
to coaling stations, sanitation and inter
vention. The Cuban convention took from
the coaling stations paragraph of the
Platt amendment its obligatory character
and merely authorizes the Cuban govern
ment, i'll it's judgment, to allow the United
States to possess coaling or naval stations.
The United States will insist on an abso-
lutte agreement to grant US these coaling
stations With respect to sanitation, the
Cubans do not agree to carry out plans
already devised, and in accepting the
Platt amendment modify its provisions
so as to change them considerably. In the
matter of Intervention, our objection is
that the Cubans have so changed this
vitality important part Of the amendment
as to make our right to intervene an
ambiguous and doubtful matter, whereas
we. insist on a straight, unequivocaI ac-
knowledgment of our right TO intervene
when, in our Judgment, Intervention is
necessary to assure Cuban independence
and stable government.

Madison, Wis, June 1.-Rev. H. T.

Rev. Mr.. Colestock's views are too lib

conservative members of the church, and
differences have arisen of which the resig-
nation is the result. The trouble cul-

old idea of missions was to save the
heather from future damnation, while the
new idea is to save them from the pres

Washington, June lin answer to his
application for instructions, Secretary
Hay has directed Ambassador Choate at
London to issue passports to the two Fill
pinos who appeared at the embassy yes
terday "as residents of the Philippine
islands and as such entitled to the pro-
lection of the United States" The de-
cision upon this point is of Importance as
having perhaps some bearing upon the
status of the people of the Philippines,
Porto Rico and Guam. year ago the
decision was reached to regard the Porto
Ricans as entitled to the protection con-
veyed by an American passport but a
formal decision of the test case was pre-
vented through the withdrawal of the ap-
plication. The Foraker act determined
the right of the Porto Ricans, as citizens
of Porto Rico, to the protection Of the
United States government. 1t is now
held that the Spooner law secures the
same Nprivilege to the inhabitants of the
Philippines.
The United States statutes prohibit the
issue of passports to any but American
citizens. But these later acts-the For
aker act and the Spooner act-impose OBJ
legations in their turn which may be
regarded as qualifying the original act
and may enable the government to avoid
a decision upon the question of the
American citizenship of the islanders. AT
any rate, the circular instructions now in
formulation which will be sent out to all
United States diplomatic and consular
representatives, will direct them to issue,
not certificates, but genuine American
passports to the islanders.
