prise was expressed, therefore, when
it was announced that DR.. Heron had
sent a letter in his own defense, deal
ing with his specific, Individual case,
and not with marriage and divorce In
general. The writer states that he
was called on divine mission as a
sort of new prophet and that his wife
did not give him her sympathy and
appreciation, SO that the home atmos-
phere was uncongenial. He and his
wife discussed the matter many times,
he alleges, and finally agreed to sep.
arate and he went away that the de-
sertion plea might be acceptable in

Z New YORK, June 5.---A special to
The Herald from Washington says:
Il Concessions granted by China to
other nations in treaties to be nego-
3tiated as the concluding chapter Of
the Chinese crisis will be enjoyed by
the United States under the most
favored nation clause" to be inserted
in the convention $5 this government
will present for signature. Imme-
diately upon the settlement Of the in
I sdemnity question the revision Of
treaties will be considered. It is prac-
stical1y certain that the powers will
not be willing to negotiate a single
treaty with China, though identical
|, treaties may be. drawn up. Officials
Of the administrator believe that the
powers will prefer to negotiate sep
arate treaties. Ii this is done, differ
ent concessions will be demanded.
This government proposes to demand
reasonable safeguards for American
interests but, in order to insure that
the United States may not suffer in
consequence of the advantages OBJ
tanned by other governments, a clause.
will be inserted providing that any
concessions granted to other nations
will be enjoyed by the United States.

In Chicago Il Is Affecting Only the
IN Cheaper Grades OF M eat.
VI Chicago, June Beef on the hoof,,
as stock ckmen say, has been advancing
In price for the past two weeks, until
the retail butchers OF Chicago have
found it necessary to raise their
prices to customers, Just as the butch
iers have done in New York. The un-
usual feature OF the advance is that
1T affected only the cheaper grades
sof meat, and thus places the burden
on the people who cannot afford sir
Ioins and porterhouses at s1S and 20
cents a pound. n n s9s5 i. N s%#:
M The advance on what is known as
Cheap stock such as loins,5 ribs and
chucks. is 2 IL cents a pound, as
compared with the prices a month
ago. u #5 Il. &. :. ..g az.
An explanation for the increased
cost Of beef is found in the late arrival
of warm weather and consequent
scarcity Of grass-fed cattle from the
West. AThe packers have been draw
ing on the supply of corn-fed cattle
with the result that farmers have de-
manded better prices. =. III,

of the probable success of the under.
taking. She was preceded by the

Washington, June 5.-Inside infor-

Cuban convention of the Platt amend
ment has just been received in Wash
ington. 1t appears that the first draft
Of the amendment as interpreted by
the majority of the committee On re-
lations with the United States, was
submitted to General Wood and by
him sent to Washington. This draft
was approved by Secretary Root and
his approval was made known to the
Cuban convention. When the matter
came up for discussion, however, it
was found that there were a number
of delegates whose votes could only
be obtained by the extended altera,
tions, amendments and Interpretation
which finally were adopted by the
convention and rejected by Secretary
Root .r~, -
1t is stated officially that the peo-
pie of Cuba believed at first that sthe
Platt amendment had been adopted
and that they were satisfied. Such
was the belief of the people OF the
United States until the draft Of the
adopted amendment = Was received
here. The belief is expressed in off,
cial circles here that the Cuban peo-
pie as whole are perfectly satisfied
with the Platt amendment and that 1t
will finally be adopted.

WILL Be No EXTRA SESSION
Cabinet Unanimously Decides Against
Holding Of an Extra Session
This Summer.
Spooner Amendment Gives President
Sufficient Power to Govern the
Philippines.
No Change il the Policy Hitherto Pur-
sued By the Administration Toward
the Islands.

washington, June st cabinet
has unanimously decided that exist
ing conditions do not warrant the call
ing of an extra session of congress
this summer. Secretary Root and At
.torney General Knox both rendered
legal opinions to the effect that the
authority to govern the Philippines
vested in the president by the Spocner.
amendment was sufficient. These
opinions were concurred in by all the
members Of the cabinet.
The decision of the cabinet was an
nounced after the cabinet meeting in
the following statement issued by Sec.
retary Cortelyou:
"The president has determined that
existing conditions do not require or
warrant calling together during the
present summer or making any
change in the policy hitherto pursued
and announced in regard to the Phil
ippine islands,"
It can be authoritatively stated that
the Dingley rates upon goods from the
Philippines entering the United States
will remain in force as heretofore.
The president will put into effect such
changes in the tariff duties on goods
going into the Philippines as the Taft
commission may recommend. The es-
tablishment of civil government in
the archipelago can proceed without
interruption as soon as the military
authorities consider the time ripe for
its establishment. % .3t
