balanced cable Juli@

The Juli@ has jackplugs for balanced out and my preamp has XLR. At this moment I am using a standard interlink: the 2 cores of the wire go to +/- and the screen goes to ground.
I want to use an Audioquest King Cobra cable with 3 cores. Normally this cable is wired as follows: 3 cores to +/-/ground and the screen is connected only to the metal housing of the XLR connectors on both sides.

What would your suggestions be when 1 XLR connector is replaced by a jackplug:

1) connect screen only at the XLR connector and cut-off at the jackplug side
or
2) connect screen at both sides (jackplug: screen and ground together)
