by Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Havana, April IA secret session of
the Cuban constitutional convention
was held here and attended by twenty
five delegates. Among the absentees
were Senor Gibora, Senior Quitas and
General Sanguilly, strong supporters of
the Platt amendment.
The first matter considered was a
resolution from the Planters associa-
ton recommending the convention to
accept the amendment, with a proviso
that the United States government
should make q reduction Of fifty per
cent. in the duty on Cuban products.
or at least make a preference in their
favor over similar products from other
countries. The resolution was tabled
without discussion.
The majority report Of the committee
on relations. signed by Senors Gomez.
Silva and Villuendas was read, but
a majority of the delegates were OPP
posed to 1t, resolution to lay 1t on
the table was carried. A similar dis
position was made of reports from
Senors Dequesada. Tamayo, Nunez and
Giberga.
A motion by Senor Monteagudo to
appoint a commission to go to Wash
ington. was defeated by a vote of 13 to
12.
1t was finally decided to hold pub
lio session Of the convention tomorrow,
when an attempt will probably be made
to reconsider the action of the Monte
agudO resolution.

Gentlemen-I have suffered from Asthnatic
Hay Fever for twenty y.o,ir years, and failed to
find relief from any OF the many doctors pre-
scriptions advertised remedies which ] used
l had almost given up hope. when ! began the
use Of HYoMEl, which entirely cured me, in four
weeks time. MRS. WILLARD AVERY.
1t is to be hoped that such testimony
and the endorsement of regular phys
icians coupled with proofs obtained
from Government Statistics, Medical
Records and the United States Health
diseases of the air passages, that their
only hope of recovery lies in using the
new germicide HYOMEI daily, for such
is the case, and those suffering from
consumption who are not cured or fail
to protect their families will soon find
themselves in quarantine.
Let it be distinctly understood that
without HYOMEI any serious case of
catarrh, bronchitis or consumption
cannot be permanently cured that il
is the only germicide which will de-
stroy the germs of these diseases and
the only one which nature permits to
enter the bronchial tubes or lungs.
Coughs, cold and Group can last but
a few hours when the air passages are
filled with HYOMEI. Catarrh, bron-
chtis. asthma and consumption cannot
exist where it is breathed daily
HYOMEI is guaranteed and your
money refunded in every case where it
fails to cure. Sold by all druggists or

HAS FILED EXCEPTIONS.
]. F. Hammes Objects to Charter
Being Granted Stonecutters.

j. +. Hammes. secretary of the local
Stonecutters union, Saturday filed ex-
ceptiOns to the issuance of charter to
the Scranton Stonecutters' union, who
applied for such some time ago. In his
exception Hammes states that the ap-
plicants are former members of the
Stonecutters' union who violated its
regulations and after leaving the union
are now endeavOring to disrupt it.
He claims they are desirOus Of using
a charter as cloak and, not being
union men, represent themselves as
such. Hammes also states that If the
charter was granted the society would
not be recognized by the national asso-
citation. The granting of charter
would, he argues. cause turmoil and
confusion in distinguishing the applt-
cants from the present Stonecutters'
union, and would result in annoyance
and inconvenience.
The application is defective, he says,
in not stating the manner of the ac-
complishment of it's purpose, and no
provision being made for the creation
OF a membership and the manner Of
succession.

BY Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Trenton, N. j., April 1.-The United
States Steel corporation this afternoon
filed with the secretary of state arti-
cles amending its charter and increas-
ing its capital stock to s1,1OO,OOO 900.
The states fee was $220,OOO The ORR
ginal articles filed some time ago We're
only amended In one particular,
This amendment was made for the
purpose of taking advantage of an act
passed by the recent legislature. ORR
ginally the corporation could not mort
gage or pledge Its real property or any
of the stock of any other company, ex-
cept by the affirmative vote of the
owners of two-thirds of the capital
stock. Under the amended charter it
is necessary only to have the affirma-
tive vote Of two-thirds of the stock
represented in person or by proxy at
any meeting of the corporation. The
reason for the change is the fear that
the stock will become so scattered that
it would be impossible to get two
