CUBANS ARE SPLIT
CONSERVATIVE FORCES ARE
WEAKENING.
RADICALS ALSO IN A SNARL.
GOMEZ NOT EXTREME ENOUGH FOR
THEM

The Two Reports on Relations with
the United states Being Discussed
in secPet-senor CIsneros Says the
CSmmIssfOn Did Not Investigate
Public Sentiment in United States,
hut Permitted Themselves to Be
Steered by Administration sympn-
zers-COnservatives Will show
Their Strength To-day.
Havana, May 9o-The conservatives
now claim only majority of four in the
Cuban Constitutional Convention. When
the convention met to-day it was found
that four of the conservatives were alb
sent and the disposition to push things,
which had been agreed upon as the pro-
gramme. changed to a movement to
block the radicals from coming to a final
vote.
The radicals were also weakened by one
absentee and a split within their ranks.
which threatens the leadership of
Juan GuaIberto Gomez This
politician has posed as an
uncompromising radical. opposing any in
tervention by the United States and pub
licly declaring that he would die of grief
if the Plat amendment were accepted.
Now. however, men who once looked up
to him as leader, repudiate him, assert
ing that he has accepted a part of the
Plat amendment in his minority report
and declaring that they will draw up
report of their own which will have the
proper radical ring. Those who take this
position are Senores Portuondo, Bravo,
Aleman and Eduardo Tamayo.
To-day's session was secret, and prob
ably sessions will continue during the dis
cussion of the two reports. Senior Cis-
neros moved that Alexandra RodrigueZ's
seat In the convention be declared vacant
and that his alternate be appointed the
regular delegate. Finally. however, it
was agreed that Rodriguez did not come
under the rule regarding delegates nc-
ceptng Office.
Cisneros Makes n Point.
Senior Cisneros took occasion TO say that
the commission which went to Washing
ton did not investigate public feeling in
the United States regarding the Plat
amendment as they should have done, but
that they allowed themselves to be steer
ed by administration sympat hizers.' and
took no opportunity to hear anything con-
1rary to the amendment. He asserted
that he was in receipt of letters from
New York advising the convention not
10 accept the amendment and assuring him
that public opinion in the United States
would support the convention in reject
ing it.
After the minority and majority
reports had been read. the
Conservatives made canvas
of the House, and, finding
their majority doubtful asked the privi-
leSe of tabling both reports for twenty
four hours.
An effort will be made to bring out to-
morrow the full strength of the conserva-
tives. who have virtually agreed to vote
for the majority report as presented. y

WATCHING CUBAN CONVENTION.
Majority Report Acceptable TO Pres
ideut and Cabinet.


San Francisco. May 2O-The President
and members of the cabinet are watching
with interest the reports which the Gu
ban commission that visited Washington
will present to the constitutional conven-
ton to-day Secretary Root has kept the
President fully advised of the movements
in Havana and the President is in com
munication with leading senator's upon
the subject. The question of this govern
ments acceptance of the action of the
constitutional convention as "a substan-
tial' compliance with the terms of the
Plat amendment will, of course, not
be formally raised until the Constitutional
Convention shall act upon reports sub
mitted to II, but there is good reason to
believe that the members of the cabi-
net here are satisfied with the develop
ments.
The majority report is considered a vir-
tual acceptance of the Plat amendment
and the minority report could perhaps be
interpreted as a stronger protest design
ed to meet the demands of local sentiment
in Cuba and save the face" of it's au-
thors.
Secretary Hay and other members of
the cabinet will remain with the Presi-
dent until Mrs. Mckinley shall be able
TO travel. when they will all go East
together. The physicians have not yet
been able to fix a date when Mrs. Nc
Kinley will be strong enough to take
the trip, but week is their present ap-
proximation.

BEST SHOES FoR WALKERS.
Much Comfort May be Had in Wear
ing German Army Foot Covering.

ing German Army Foot Covering.
From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
THE best foot covering in the world
for men who have to walk about in all
sorts of places" said a professional
hunter in the employ of a local market
man, sis the cloth used in the German
army in place of socks. A friend OF
mine sent me a couple of samples last
fall and l gave them a thorough trial.
The result is that I'm never going to
wear anything else when I'm out on
hunt. The cloth is made of medium
weight wooden goods and is about the
size and shape of an old-fashioned red
bandanna handkerchief. 1t is simply
folded about the foot and then tied around
the ankle with piece of tape. At first
blush" the hunter went on, that would
seem to be a very uncomfortable ar
rangement, and l felt certain that tina
creases would make the thing a torment
to wear, but can only sey that they do
nothing of the kind.
"Of course, a great deal depends upon
the way the cloth is folded, and found
after some experimenting that the pest
scheme was to place the foot in the CEN
ter and then cross the sides diagonaly
over the top of the instep. Drawing up
the back completed a sort of rough moe
casin which the tape kept firmly In po-
sition. wore an extra large shoe ana
never felt a crease. The principal advan-
tages of the foot cloth over socks are
these: When hole is worn i'm 1t all one
has to do is to make a slight shift; tnen
It is very easy to wash, and If IT gets
wet ii can be spread out and dried IN
few moments at a camp fire. All THESE
are important considerations on hunt
when a man may be In the woods ana
marshes for week or more and can
afford to be incumbered with much De-
sides cartridges. I'm surprised that tne
cloth hasn't become well known ana pop
ular long ago. Hereafter / shall be ths
