''IF there ever was an administra-

REPORT comes from Washington
that the insular commission APP
pointed to act in an advisory capacity
to the war department in the matter
of the distribution of franchises and
concessions in Porto Rico will be dis
solved. This would give Secretary
Alger the exclusive right in this mat
ter. 1t is said that President McKin-
ley expects to evolve some plan to
keep the power out of the secretary s
hands. If he does not, all concessions
granted by the secretary of war will
hold, unless it is shown that fraud
was resorted to in securing them.
The administration officials admit
that the insular commission has been
n failure. The three members quar-
relied among themselves and it was
impossible for them to frame a unan-
imous report.

in delicate patterns in shaded silks, to
be worn beneath open-fronted coats Of
velvet or cloth, finished with satin
revers.
