SOME CONTEST REVISION.

HAVANA, Jan 9.-There is prob
ability of bitter struggle in the law
commission appointed to revise the
election law of Cuba. The commission,
which consists of II members, of whom
three are Americans, are understood
to be divided on the suffrage question.
The liberal members who are In a
minority, are in favor of letting con-
ditions remain as they are, but most
of the others are inclined to some form
of plural voting, through which by
recognizing educational and property
qualifications, the power of the ignor-
ant element would be offset.
