.DISCON7ENT IN
PORTO RICO
Reside nts Dissatisfied With
Brooke's Appoint
ments.

! WASHINGTON, Dec. PA San Juan
de Porto Rico correspondent to the
! Associated Press, writing under date
of Dec. 5. says:
The past week in San Juan has
shown certain developments in the
general situation of the islands, and
drifting straws have been seen To in
dictate the current of growing discon-
tent. There has baen much trouble
all over the island since the American
government assumed a military protec
tor ate, concerning the appointment
of mayors and councilmen OF the diff.
ferent municipalities, of which there
are IN all -. Men so appointed and
those already IN office have been re-
signing and squabling among them.
selves. aud expressing their displeasurs
at the appointment of some colleague.
The fact that General Brooke declined
to grant TO the council at Ponce the
privileges of the autonomist constiLu-
tiOn, which they were arrogating to
themselves, Is what rankles ever pres
ent 10 the minds of the defeated
autonomisss. The accordance of this
privilege would have been for them a
great victory. The best judgment
here sustains General Brooke in this
action.
The autononist party sets up a pro-
longed howl of discomfort in which,
among other things, they declared
that Munoz Rivera, leader of General
Brooke's cabinet. had betrayed them,
inasmuch as he had used his influence
to bring about the decision against
their demands. Rivera is an element
of political discord. Six months ago
he theatrically declared he would die
wrapped in the flag of Spain, and
he was the first Porto Rican to
swear allegiance to the United States.
Tie is at present secretary OF state. and |,
since October II the head of General |
Brooke's advisory board in the insular |
affairs He is capable man and q
schemer. He probably long ago de.
termined TO become the political ruler
of Porto Rico.

Spanish Commissioners Ask
For an Investigation.

PARIS, Dec. 9-Rios. president OF
The Spanish peace commission, and
tOjeda the secretary, are still confined
to their beds. Ojeda's sickness
delays the engrossing of the treaty.
| and it is doubtful whether it will be
signed before Monday. The Ameri.
| cans held the usual session this norm
ng. The Spaniards continue making
bitter comments concerning President
| McKinley's reference to the Maine.
| The Spaniards made last contribu-
| tiGn in the recent Assem- bling OF the
| com missions when Rios presented a
vigorously wordeu protest, in which
the Spaniards declared they had
yielded to force, but they invoked the
conscience of the nations against the
abuse of the rights Of a nation, of
which they were the victims The
protest was for the purpose of record,
and consisted OF an argument in sup
port of every concession demanded by
the Spaniards and which the Ameri-
cans refused. The protest concluded:
"But these CONCESSIONS which we
were obliged 10 make touches lis less
than the insult which has been afflicted
On our nation by President Mckinley
in bis message. We again protest
against the accusation hurled at US in
regard to the Maine, and We intend to
again submit the matter to an inter.
national tribunal. composed of Eng
land; France and Germany, TO deter
mine who shall bear the responsibility
for the catastrophe"
In spite of the secrecy observed by
the Americans. IL is learned that the
treaty in substance consists of [3 or II
articles. the principal articles pro-
vide for the cession and evacuation of |
Cuba. Porto Rico and the Philippine !
islunds, aud The political, udministra- |
tive ard finGncial results thereof, and !
acquisition by the United States of
public property and relirquishment of

unfinished lawsuits and contracts,
guarantees Of the same terms to Span
ish shipping and merchandise in the
