MENT FOR PORTO RICO.
Some Form of Local Administration to be De-
cded on and Put into Opera
ton at Once.

Washington, Sept. 12.-The Cabinet
meeting today was occupied in the dis
cussion of form of ciyil government
for Porto Ricb. This matter has been
under serious consideration ever since
Secretary Root took his place as Secre-
tary of War, and the indications are now
that some form of local government will
be decided upon and put into operation
within the next few weeks at the farth-
est. The details of the proposed plan
have not vet been made public, but it is
understood that it involves the appoint
ment of civil governor by the Presi-
dent, and also the appointment of the
chiefs of several great departments Of
the Government, which would include
chief of the financial department,
director of posts and probably two or
three others. In addition the President
will appoint from the leading citizens
of the island a certain number to act in
"A legislative capacity with rhe civil

There is no alliance with England

the world, the treaties of ordinary in
ternational friendship for purposes of
business and commerce. No treaty
other than these exists: none has been
suggested on either side; none is in con-
temptation. 1t has never entered into
the mind of the President nor Of any
member of the Government to forsake,
under any inducement, the wise precept
and example of the fathers, which for
