GETTING INTO LINE
CUBAN CONVENTION ALMOST
CERTAIN TO ACCEPT THE
AMENDMENT.
Desire to Have the Matter Settled So
That the Country Can Get Down to
Business Having Its Effect Upon
the kadicaIs-Hope for Some Sort
Of independence in Preference to
Military Occupation.

Havana, June 10.-The Conservative
members of the constitutional conven-
ton are absolutely confident that the
Plat amendment will be accepted and
that several Radicals will join with
the IL delegates who have heretofore
boted in favor of acceptance. The last
few days seem to have brought about
a decided change in the attitude OF
delegates who had been bitterly ar,
raigning the Washington government
Tor changing the correct interpreter
tion of the amendment. The strong
pressure from the outside brought to-
bear upon the convention to finish Its
business and to place the country on
settled basis has had an excellent
effect upon the Radicals, inducing
them to accept the inevitable, and
some of them now argue that 1t Will
be perhaps better to accept the amend
ment, hoping for some form OF lnde'
pendence, than to prolong the mill
tary occupation of the island.
The convention will meet in secret
session during the day. 1t Is expect
ed several days will elapse before a
vote is taken.
