IMPORTANT OPINION.
Law Regarding Employment Of Special
Attorneys BY Commissioners.
OFFtCE OF SOLICITOR GENERAL
OF NEW MEXICO, :
\ IT Auuuaf "a Iang \

SANTA ~, August "a, tsOs.
Hon. John Franklin. District Attorney. Eddy.
New Mexico:
Dear sir-Your favor OF the 23d asking
my opinion as TO whether chapter IS. seq.
sion laws 1897, compiled as section $40.
Iotbidding county commissioners to IN
ploy special attorneys and counsel to the
exclusion OF district attorneys under sec
ton 1915, Is received, and in reply would
say that the statute OF 1897, compiled as
section $40, | do not think repeats either
OF the other sections, and for that reason
the other sections were left In the com
pilation. The duty Of the district attor.
ney remains the same, and the prohibit
ton on the county board contained in
section 2579 Ia released to the extent
that IL shall be lawful for the county
commissioners to employ special attor.
neys and counsel for the prosecution OF
said suits" The first part OF the act
clearly cOntemplates the tendency Of a
suit, which, under the other law. must
have been brought by the district attOr-
ney, and the employment OF such special
attorneys and counsel il authorized for
the assistance OF the regular law officer.
I think this is plain from the language
Of the act, and | know 1t was the intent
Of the act at the time 1t was presented "a
the Legislature, and they cannot Eek
clude" the district attorney from a suit
which he has already brought; nor car
they employ an attorney outside OF the
district attorney to bring the suit.
Very respectfully,

GENERAL LEES STORY.
American Consul ut Havana Gives His
Testimony.

American Consul ut Havana Gives His
Testimony.
Consul General Lee appeared before
tho court on March 9Th. His testimony
related to the official forlnalities pre-
ceding tho Names arrival. On Jan. "A
he received message from the state
department saying that the Maine would
be sent to Havana ON q friendly visit to
resume tho regular status OF naval re-
lations between the two countries, ind he
was ordered to make arrangements at the
palace for the interchange Of official cour-
tesies. After call ut the palace he sent
the state department cipher message,
saying:
'Authorities profess to think the Unit"
cd States has Interior purpose In sending
the ship. Say it will obstruct autonomy
and produce excitement and most prob
ably q demonstration. Ask that 1t not be
done until they can get instructions from
Madrid. Say that If our purpose Is
friendly, % claimed, delay Is unimpor-
tant."
1t was too late, however, the Maine
had already sailed. She arrived next
day, and Lee reported her arrival to tho
state department.
