steamer Camperdown, bound for New

sacks of sugar, is stranded on Cape
Lookout shoals. seven miles from the
beach. The captain of the life-saving
crew has made three unsuccessful at
tempts to board the vessel and render
assistance, but owing to strong head
current, high sea and southwest winds
he has been unable to do so. During
the first attempt he got close enough to
communicate with those on board. The
captain Of the steamer asked that as
sistance be sent him, and the Merritt
Wrecking company, Of Norfolk, has
been notified The weather has been so
thick and hazy that the life-savers have
been unable to see or communicate with
the Camperdown since. Everything in
dicates the total loss of the vessel, un-
less the weather changes and assistance
reaches her soon.

"The headquarters staff of the allied
army cannot enter into an agreement
to undertake no more expeditions, but
must reserve the right to act according
to circumstances. If no general con-
ditions, political or otherwise, arise,
like the appearance of bands of rob-

That MCKINLEY Can Do Nothing but
Enforce It-GeneraI Gomez Does Not
Believe 1t Final.
Havana, March 5.-The Platt amend
ment, passed by the Senate, regarding
the relations of Cuba and the United
States, which, was forwarded by Cen
eral Wood, was informally discussed
this afternoon by large number of
delegates. General Sanguily and Senior
Aleman contended that the amendment
had become law and that President Nc
Kinley could do nothing else but en-
force it. He declared that the sugges-
tions from the convention had been ig
nored; that the United States govern
ment evidently intended to do what It
pleased with Cuba, and the only manly
thing for the delegates to do was to dis
solve and let the United States call an
other convention.
General Alberto Gomez, although rad
ically opposed to the amendment, said
he did not believe 1t was the final de-
cision of the United States regarding
the future attitude of the government
toward Cuba. He thought the conven-
tion should discuss the amendment and
return it to General Wood with care
full opinion, as it was possible that
President Mckinley would call an extra
session in the hope of bringing about
compromise.
A majority of the delegates favor Off
cial action by the convention regarding
the amendment, and this question will
be decided tomorrow.
