Washington, June 1.-The president
and the cabinet at their meeting de-
'cided that the action Of the Cuban con-
stitutional convention was not Sub
stantial" compliance with the terms of
the Platt amendment. The secretary of
war Will convey this fact to the con-
vention. VI @
The three main points In which the
action of the Cuban constitutional con-
vention is regarded as unsatisfactory
relate 1t is said. to coaling stations,
sanitation and intervention. The Gu
ban convention took from the coaling
stations paragraph of the Platt amend.
ment it's obligatory character and
merely authorized the Cuban govern
ment. In its judgment, to allow. the
United States to possess coaling or ma
val stations. The United States will
insist on an absolute agreement to
grant us these coaling stations. With
respect to sanitation the Cubans do not
agree to carry out plans already de-
'vised and in accepting the Plat amend
ment modify its provisions so as to
change them considerably. In the mat,
ter of intervention our objection is that
the Cubans have so changed this vital
~ important part of the Plat amend
ment as to make our right to intervene
an ambiguous and doubtful matter,
whereas we insist on a straight, .une-
quivocal acknowledgement Of our right,
to intervene when in our judgement in
PREVENTION is necessary to assure Cuban
independence or a stable government
Cubans Disappointed.
HAVANA, June 1.-The decision of the
United States government not to accept
the Cuban constitution as adopted by
the Havana convention caused great
surprise and keen disappointment to
those members of the convention who
voted in favor of the constitution as
adopted. Two leading Conservatives
who were interviewed on the subject
said. in substance, that they had rea-
son to suppose that the constitution
would be acceptable to Washington,
and that otherwise they would not
have voted for the majority report as
submitted. They also pointed out that
in order to avoid a possibility of re-
lection the majority report had been
changed at the last moment by strik-
ing out the Interpretation at the end of
the clauses. and putting these in the
form Of n resolution by themselves,
thus accepting the Plat amendment as
passed by congress.

Recent Rains Make Good Grazing
Certain.
Belle Fourche, s. D., June 1.-Vege-
tation has taken on a wonderful new
life since the thorough soaking the
ground has received in all parts Of the
Hills during the recent heavy rains.
Tie rain was general throughout the
entire Black Hills and no estimate can
be made as to the good that will come
from it. Ranchmen were beginning to
feel Respondent before the rain, and
many stockmen were making arrange
ments to ship their herds to Nebraska
for food. The creeks in the several
mining districts have been filed with
water and this will extend the season
of placer mining quite materially.

McKinley's popularity was
