SAN JuAN's MAYOR RESIGNS.
His Political Opponents Made Thing,
 Disnereeab1e For Him.


 Disnereeab1e For Him.
 San Juan, Nov 22. -Senor Dels Valle, meyor of San Juan, has rendered his resignation because of the persistent and unreasonable proposition of mem- bers of the city council to my efforts in behalf of the city"
 It is said that Senor Munez. president of the council of secretaries under the old regime, influenced the couneilmen, majority of whom are liberals, to an- tagonize the mayor, who is an independ- ent in politics and quite free from par tisanship. He was in splendid repute as 8 mayor and regrets are expr essed at his resignation. The appointment of Senor Manuel Roman as his successor is con- sidered satisfactory Roman Is pro. fessional politician and belongs to the same party as Munez.
 Monsignor Valez, the Spanish bishop of Porto Rico, has resigned, saying that it Is impossible for him to serve any other country than Spain. The local clergy were paid by the United States for last September but no more money is forthcoming and it is generally be- lieyed that the bishop resigned for this reason.

The Editor <. Troubles.

An exchange hits it about right in the following: tEditing local paper is nice business. If we pub fish . joke, people say we are rattle headed. If we publish original matter, people say we don't give enough selections. If we give them selections, we are too lazy to write. [ we compliment the ladies, we are jealous. If we don't, we are pub fishing a paper not fit to make a hustle of. If we remain in our office, ve are too proud to mingle with the common herd. If we are out on the street, we are not at tending to our business. If we wear poor clothes, business is dull. And if we wear good clothes we do not pay for them. Now what shall we do?'

Very little that is new has trans
pired in the Maine matter during
the past week The administration
is determined to go slow and certain,
and to ascertain beyond a doubt that
the destruction Of the vessel was
caused by outsiders before taking any
active steps. The court Of inquiry is
proceeding deliberately, and while its
findings are not being given out, it
appears to be almost certain that
the first explosion did not come from
the inside. Congress seems to have
settled down to the opinion that the
government is to be trusted to act
right in the matter, and no further
disposition is shown to hamper it by
fiery speeches; this, in itself, goes to
show that congress is convinced that
something is likely to drop at any
time. The Spanish papers seem to
think that war is inevitable, and the
English papers frankly say Spain

'Thc president stated to me-
said the general, "that he was only
waiting tor complete report Of the
naval board Of inquiry and that
should it report that our sailors had
met their death through Spanish
treachcry, he was prepared to act at
once and in manner that would
meet the approval Of every loyal
American citiZen."
General Powell said preparations
for war were being pushed with the
utmost yigor and added. II am con.
vinced that President Mckinley is
the right man in the right place and
that as soon as Spanish trcachery has
been proven his policy will be rigid
enough to meet the approval even OF

and their coming into power things
have occurred that never happened
when we, the conservatives, were in
power.

CANE RUSH BRUTAL.
Acting President Clarke Adm0nishes
the Brown Students


The annual cane rush of the fresh
man and sophomore classes OF Brown
university, scheduled for this after
noon, will take place under strong OPP
position. While Acting President Clarke
did not positively state that there must
be no cane rush, he left no room for
doubt as To his opinion i'm the minds OF
the students when he finished speaking
at the close of the chapel exercises this
morning.
II wish TO speak TO you in student
terms" he said on taking the platform,
'and to be plain about the cane rush. If
you turned two bulls loose in a field
the first thing they would do would be
10 gore each other. believe i'm athletic
sport. / believe that il makes men
manly. But cane rush is brutal. OF
all the men i saw who took part in
the cane rush two years ago there was
only one who was not heartily ashamed
of himself. At that time the men were
not warned. But now that you have
been admonished, the consequences will
be serious"
Two years ago the cane rush ended in
one OF the most brutal slugging matches
ever exhibited upon the campus. Hats
were broken 10 pieces. coats ripped
from backs and heads bruised and
pounded till large Jumps and bloody
noses marked the spots where the blows
fell. Benny" never said a word last
year. and the cane rush was a COM
paratively well conducted and tame af-
fair.
The rush generally occurs immediate
ly after the close OF the interclass meet
on Lincoln field. The meet began at
2:30 p. m. and will last about two hours.
