Cuban Congress Convenes.
(By the Associated Press.1

Havana, Nov .2.-The regular session OF
Congress opened this afternoon. The re
commentators in the message OF Presl-
dent Palma are chiefly OF a general char
acter. The much discussed loan taxes are
not gone into at length, and no amendment
to the loan law is suggested.
Referring to the relations between Cuba
and the United States, the message says:
Our political relations with the United
States have been definitely settled by
treaties founded on the terms of the con-
stitutional appendix and the latter could
not be eliminated from the constitution
by the mere reading of these treaties.
Congress can appreciate that within the
precise terms of the Plat amendment,
Cuba has obtained no few advantages.
OF the two forms of cession of naval coal
ing stations, by sale or by lease, the one
east baneful to Cuban sentiment was
adopted and the smallest limit as to the
number of stations granted was made; the
regulations in the lease containing other
limitations favorable to Cuba. The gov
eminent is acquiring territory with the
stations and will soon formally deliver the
areas marked out.
"The Honorable President Roosevelt to
whom we people of Cuba feel such pro
found gratitude, has been faithful to his
word and has convened the American Con
gress in special session for the purpose
of taking action on the pending reciproc-
ity treaty. from which we hope to receive
such great benefits; trustworthy informa-
ton has been received by the executive
which warrants the belief that this treaty
will be ratified"
