There seems to be some difference OF
opinion among the members of the various
political parties as to how the names OF can
didates Will appear upon the sample and
ofcial ballots. The city clerk is the official
delegated by law to make up the ticket and
on account OF the contention he appealed
to City Attorney Lambert for advice.
Mr. Lambert went into the matter thor
oughly and 1t is understood that he decided
that the ticket should be headed by a tax
commissioner and followed by the three
candidates for member of the Board Of Edu-
cation. The opinion Of the city attorney will
most likely be followed by Clerk Shriglcy
In speaking OF this matter last evening Mr..
Shrigley said that he wanted to do what
was right by all parties concerned but he
would most certainly be guided by the ad-
vice of his attorneys. 1t is expected that.
the mayors proclamation will be issued to-
day and this will call for the election of
one tax commissioner and three members OF

who nominated a full ticket under the pro-
visions OF the Lincoln charter. desire to
break in they will have TO appeal to the

candidates on the ticket.
There is very little interest displayed so
far in the coming election, especially with
the councilmen eliminated from the race.
1t is understood that no effort will be
made to redistrict the city until after cleo
tion. This will give the mayor the ap-
pointing power. at least that is what some
people seem to think Just now. At any
rate the number OF councimen will be de-
creased by two after the coming election.

CUBAN RADICALS TO SPLIT

GENERAL MILES CouNssls DELEGATES
visits Constitutional Convention and
Advises that II Act Deliberately
on the Platt Amend
ment.

HAVANA, March 2l.-An element of
doubt now exists as to what will be the
final attitude of the Cuban constitutional
convention. The preponderance OF public
opinion in favor OF the Platt amendment
in the last few days is having the effect
on the radical members and General San
guillys press utterances today further tend
to weaken the strength of the radicals
General Sanguilly was the most radical
OF all the delegates. He favored dissolving
the convention when the United States con-
gress adopted the resolution Lately he
has expressed in private the views, to
which he has now given public expression,
but few expected him to maintain the stand
He now says "A literal Interpretation OF
the Plat amendment might mean the loss
of Cuban independence, but the liberal
view which President Mckinley and the
convention would give would leave nothing
to be feared by the Cubans. ] do not be-
lieve that by waiting we would get better
terms from the next congress. Independ-
ence with some restrictions is preferable
to continuance of military rule. which
would surely follow a rejection OF the Plat

Would He n Safeguard.

III the Americans want the Isle of Pines
am in favor of giving IL to them. ] am
also in favor of establishing coaling sta
tions on some of the keys, or at some Of
the small ports. The presence OF the au-
thority OF the United States would be
guaranty OF our independence so far as our
exterior safety is concerned and would save
us the expense of maintaining an army and
a navy"
The committee on relations did not re-
port today. Probably IL will submit its re-
port tomorrow. The view asserted In the
report that the resolution establishing rela-
tions cannot be settled by the convention,
bur should be left to the future republic, is
liable to cause a break in the radical ranks
The conservative element is endeavoring to
keep the convention from taking a final
vote on the question until a committee has
been appointed to wait on Governor Cen
eral Wood or go to Washington.
General Miles, who has returned from
the Isle of Pines. visited the convention
with Senor Quesada, and met many dele
gates whose acquaintance he formed dur
ing the Spanish American war He ad-
vised them not to act hastily with refer
ence to the amendment. and pointed out
