of the Negroes.
Havana, June 17.-Some of the dele
gates to the constitutional convention
are considering the advisability of
making an attempt to alter certain
clauses of the Cuban constitution. The
proposed changes are insregard to the
universal suffrage, the election of gov
ernOrS of provinces and the personal
responsibility of the secretaries of the
president for all their acts. They pro-
pose to substitute for the first two re-
stricted suffrage, and the nomination
Of governors of provinces by a central
power, and to abolish the third alto
gether.
Opinion is divided at present as to
the possibility of altering the consti-
tuition which itself says that this can
only be done by the congress. In re-
gard to universal suffrage, the major
ity of the delegates at present seem to
be in favor of leaving this question
alone. Manuel Sanguilly says that
this will not make any difference, as
the local cliques are those that rule.
By having universal suffrage the peo-
pie will be content, but they will not
exercise any real power
A Radical delegate to the convention
is quoted as saying: Better leave the
question alone, as ways can be found
to prevent the negroes and other il
literate portions Of the population from
voting"

Lord Kitchener reported Saturday to
the war office from Pretoria as fol-
lows: During the march from Vrede
General Elliot's column engaged De
Wet near Reitz on June 6. After Sc
we're fighting they captured seventy-one
loaded wagons, forty-five prisoners,
fifty eight rifles, 10000 rounds of am
manition and 900 cattle. The Beers
left seventeen killed and three wound
ed. Our casualties were three officers
and seventeen men killed and one Ofi-
Ger and tWenty-fOur men wounded.
Military Men Were Hopeful.
Previous to the receipt of Kitchen
or's telegram, given above, relating the
story of Boer surprise as early as Z 80
70. M, and of the Victorian Rifles, too,
IA body of men supposed to be up to
all such Boer schlimmness, the record
aof military operations in South Africa
was regarded as satisfactory by the
military men, without regard for the
results of Mrs. Botha's diplomacy.
The number of Boer prisoners under
!: guard exceeds 10000, and they are
anxious to have the war end. A con-
siderable force OF the surrendered
Beers is now under arms for the pro-
lection of farms and herds, and it, too,
is anxious to have terms of peace ar
ranged. The Dutch districts in Cape
Colony, where General French is now
in command, are weary of the depre-
dations Of the Boer raiders, when they
have to, feed and clothe them.
Loss OF the PeNapoms sSad Features
The serious reverse which Lord
Kitchener reports is the first accident
of the kind that has happened to the
Australian contingent, and it is sup
posed to be due to neglect of proper
picketing. Although it is offset by the
defeat inflicted upon De Wet, the loss
of the guns is regarded as a serious
! matter, which will encourage the
Beers to continue the struggle. More
or less fanciful accounts are published
on the continent of alleged peace nego-
tiations, but there is nothing in them,
and nothing has come Of the interview
between Mrs. Botha and Kruger be-
You'd revealing the fact that Kruger
will listen to no proposals unless they
are accompanied with a guarantee Of

pleased with the prospective surrender
of General Cables, the Filipino in
surgent leader Cables is a man of
considerable influence, and with his
backing of some hundreds of men has
been a menace to the efforts Of the

therefore, is regarded with much salts

Cables Was a Head Hunter,

For more than a year past General
Cables has commanded the insurgent
forces operating on the east side of
Bay lake, north Of Manila. He is
said to be French half caste. The
society of Mando-Ducats, whose prac-
tice it was to assassinate and bury
alive those of their countrymen who
accepted United States sovereignty
whenever the latter fell into their
hands, operated with the cognizance,
if not the support, of General Cables.
At one time Cables offered a reward
of $40 for the heads of all United
States citizens brought to him, and,
more recently, he offered a reward of
$4,000 for the head of Captain Ed
ward N. Jones, Jr., of the Eighth in
fantry

Hung on to the Last Ditch.

Since the capture of Aguinaldo,
Cables, who was one of the few in
Surgent leaders who did not surrender
under the terms of amnesty, has been
persistently pursued by the United
States troops. Negotiations for his
surrender have been going on with
General Sumner for some weeks past
He was declared to be an outlaw by
the United States authorizes, and this
fact, which meant that he could not
expect to enjoy immunity for his past
deeds and violations of honorable war
fare, but would have to stand trial,
doubtless compelled him to prolong his
resistance. The members of the Fed
era1 party advised him to surrender,
but this he persistently refused to do
until he saw that his capture was in
evitable.

she had gone to Chattanooga.
Today Thompson was in resort ON

met the full gaze of his sister.
She tainted, and Thompson, crazed
with grief and modification, rushed
over her PROSTATE form to the street
and into drug store, where he pur-
chased a bottle Of laudanum. He
drained the bottle as he wended his
way back to the resort to die in the
presence Of his sister. Overcome by
the drug he fell on the street
