at Lichtenburg.

London, March S.-Whatever nego-
tiations are proceeding in Pretoria

burg. west of Bloemfontein, and the

AssAlLANT IRRESPONSIBLE
Emperor William Painfully Injured on
the Cheek Just Below the Eye


the Cheek just Below the Eye.
Berlin, March S.--The opinion pre-
walls that the emperor will suffer much
pain and probably some fever and in
flammation for the next few days, and
that it will require at least fortnight
before the wound inflicted by Weiland
is healed. Professor Bergman has or
dered the rooms in which the emperor
is to be kept darkened because of the
danger that the eye may be affected.
Weiland's examination, proved that
he was not responsible for his action.
He said lie felt unwell yesterday and
feared an epileptic attack While he
was waiting for the arrival of the en-
peror the sound of fountain playing
in il court yard caused him to imagine
that he was sailing ship. his former
vocation having been that of ships
captain. Under this delusion his ex-
citcment increased. and he attempted
to heave a lead and three pieces of
iron. Then he lost consciousness.
The missile was tishplate weighing
$50 grams. The emperor was struck
on the cheek just below the right eye.

CUBAN CRISIS IS PASSED.
Constitutional Convention De-
cides Not to Dissolve.
WILL CONTINUE SESSIONS.
Conservative Element Scores Victory
Over the Radicals--Latter May Cause
Demonstrations Against United States by
Impassioned Appeal to the People.

Havana, March S.-The Cuban, con-
stitutional convention met HI secret
session yesterday afternoon for a
formal discussion of the Platt amend
ment. The conservative element
scored victory. 1t was decided to
continue the sessions of the conven-
tion and to refer the amendment to
the special committee on relations,
with Instructions to bring in, a report.
General Sanguilly favored dissolving
the convention and returning the
amendment without discussion. The
other delegates were unanimously in
favor of continuing the sessions and
of sending some answer to the execu-
tive department in Washington. The
argument turned on the question
whether the convention had power to
adopt a scheme of relations that would
be binding upon the future republic.
The radical element did not flock
to General Sanguilly' as had been ex-
pected, and the conventions action in
referring the question to the special
committee OH relations indicates u
W IlCSo W IcCcut lloi1l Llc lOIlucl
attitude. 1t is evident that many of
the delegates still hope the amendment
will be changed, but there is no bitter
feeling now apparent. 1t is doubtful
whether the convention will ever agree
to accept the amendment. but the con
seryatives maintain that the willing
ness of the radicals to discuss and. ii
necessary, to send committee to
| Washington, gives more hopeful as
pect to conditions which We're growing
strained.
| 1t is generally believed that the
crisis, if any existed, has passed and
that by the time the committee reports
the present excitement will have died
out. Much depends upon the attitude
OF the radical delegates. If an i'm
passioned appeal to the people is is
sued, as it is rumored will lbe the case
it may cause demonstrations of protes,
against the United States. But moth
ing in the nature of an uprising is any

A number have asked US if the ar

who Warn drove back at the point of a
revolver Most certainly it did not.
The editor has wholesome dread Of
the business end of a revolver and
especially when it is in the hands of an
irresponsible man. We have always
thought that distance lent enchant-
ment to such a view and we would
advise no one tostay upon the order OF
his going but to go at once under such
circumstances. We do not think any
weaponless man is coward who runs
away in such a case and we think we
could have done hundred yards in a
little less than ten seconds had we
been in front of the gun.
