CHEERS FOR GOMEZ.
National Liberal Party of Cuba Meets
in Havana.

Havana, May 1e.-The National Lib
eraI convention opened here amid cheers
for the reorganized party and for Gen
eral Maxine Gomez, who is regarded
now as one of the most radical Of the
party's leaders. The convention unan-
imously though tentatively adopted a
declaration of principles.
The declaration most applauded dur
ing the reading was one asserting that
the Plat amendment to the perna rent
treaty between the United States ana
Cuba constitutes a danger of weaken
ing Cuban sovereignty and declaring
that the treaty should be revised when
opportunity offers.
After a unanimous vote of sympathy
with General Maxine Gomez, who is
dangerously i'll at Santiago. the conven-
ton adjourned until tonight
