Accepts the Plat
Amendment
Fully.
PUTS A NEW CON-
STRUCTION ON IT
The Action, However. Tends to
Settle All Disturbances
Over the Treaty.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-Secretary
General Wood at Havana, confirming
the press report of the adoption OF the
report Of the committee on relations
with the United States, accepting in be-
half of the convention the terms of the
Platt amendment. 1t is understood
that, without undertaking materially to
change the language of the Platt
amendment, the convection, by the ad-
dition of reports of interviews with
Secretary Root and otherwise, has
placed upon the amendment itself
construction that will require very ser
ious consideration.
Secretary Root has been in daily COM
munication by cable with General
Wood, and is acquainted with the pro-
ceedings of the delegates and the ne
gotiations which led up to- yesterday
action. General Wood. in turn has ac-
quainted the constitutional delegates
with the secretary's views in answer TO
their efforts to place a construction up
on the Iiatt dHicHuciS- I4ShS< eiAS
weight of opinion inclines to the belief
that even as 1t stands. the conventions
action yesterdayANill not be dtsapRroy-
ed from Washington II ts snRgeeted
by the officials that there is no occasion
at present for the Washington Govern
rnent to take action upon this matter.
either by accepting or rejecting the
conventions work.
COMMENT III iosDoN
NEW YORK, May 2s.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says: The
Post draws the attention Of English
men to the annual report of the Mill
tary Governor of Havana, and remarks
on the surprising measure Of success
that has been attained by the Ameri-
can administration in short period
The experience of Havana during the
first year and half of American super
vision proves, says the Post, that
government under the authority OF an
American executive would be incom-
parably better than anything that
Spain had been able to give and than
anything that the Cubans could create
for themselves.

LINED
HIS POCKETS
Native Jehu and Passenger
Arbitrate Question Before
High Sheriff.

A Norwegian stranger and a native
hackman halted before the police sta
ton last night at O'Clock, and argued
about the fare. The hackman said his
passenger had been in his hack all
day with a companion. and he wanted
s15. which the foreigner refused to
pay AS the latter had looked into the
the day he was in condition to argue
the point until dawn, and probably
would have done so if the hacku1an
had not called the police officers to ar
bitrate. II been an American citizen,
and you be Hawaiio-I pay my debts,
but I no buy de hack. MOI"
The Jehu promised to have him lock-
ed up and tried before Judge Wilcox,
but the shrewd Northlander defied' him
to imprison him under the American
law for failure to pay what the hack
man demanded. He said ne had plenty
of money, and had already paid the
hackman 81, and would add SIS more.
High Sheriff Brown was appealed to.
and, understanding the passenger mad
pocket full of gold, and was in an in
toxicated condition, he decided to lock
him up. The man said he did not
want any one to know how much
money he carried, and cried like a
child when told he would be placed IN
cell to sleep off his jag. When his
pockets We're turned out, 5000 In $40
gold pieces were found, beside a draft
for $500 more. A soldiers descriptive
sheet was also found, the man having
been soldier at Manila.
Z The Norwegian Monte Cristo left a
hnf oil eai ri a aVuo r on
ing, as he intends leaving for the
Coast today on the Ventura. The High
Sheriff and the hackman then figured
on the amount OF fare due, the former
.totalling up S12 as the amount the ma
tive driver could demand at the most.
