The supply of hogs was considerably larger
tina on last Wednesday. The quality was
not as good as yesterday. There was an
absence of strictly first grade hogs. The
market was fully sc higher than yester-
day. Selected heavy hogs sold at $500. The
kind of hogs that sold at that figure yes
terday would easily have brought $6.65 to-
day. No straight loads were offered good
enough to sell above $50. Light hogs sold
mostly from Sc to $500 for the best, and
medium and heavy mixed ranged from S6.25
to so. Business moved rapidly with a
good reliable demand. and all were soon
sold. The market closed steady at quota

Hogs-Receipts, 5000; shipments. 1.4OO.
The combined receipts OF hogs for three
days show a decrease of over 1000 compared
with the same time last week, and the re-
ceipts to-day were about 1000 smaller than
a week ago. There was not much change TO
note in the quality compared with yester-
day. but by a number of dealers il was
claimed that there were no hogs as desir-
able as those that sold at the top price
yesterday. Statesmen were asking higher
prices, which caused rather a quiet trade at
the start. but finally the offerings were
moving with a little more freedom than
characterized the trade yesterday morning,
and with reasonably good competition be-
tween packers and shippers there was con-
siderable animation in the market. The
demand was irregular and there were not
many grades that were desirable to all
buyers. There were some transactions re-
ported sc TO l0c higher than yesterday as a
rule. A good clearance was made and the
market closed steady. Ordinary light hogs
TO good heavy sold from $5.75Q6.55, and the

S6.15. Quotations:

The receipts of sheep and lambs for three

The attention of Attorney General Harlan
was called yesterday to the protest of certain
plumbers against the recent action Of the
Superior Board of Health in establishing
rules regulating the construction Of plumb
ing and rules regulating the registration Of
plumbers. The Attorney General said in
reply that the matter had been referred to
him as a question of law by the Commits
sioner of ths Interior and that doubtless
the action of the Superior Boa of Health
was based upon the opinion rendered by him.
He said: g have not considered the
matter closely from practical standpoint,
but as matter of law there can be no doubt
as to the conclusion reached. The law
makes it the dut) Of the Superior Board
of Health to supervise plumbing. This
surely does not nean that the officers Of
that board shall stand by merely for the
purpose Of being on hand as plumbing work
is being done.
The right to supervise gives to them tie
same right that supervising architect OF q
building has, that Is the right to give orders
az TO how the work shall be done. 1t isl
clearly proper therefore for the superior
Board of Health to establish rules SO that
All plumbers may be notified OF The require.
ments that will be insisted upon by Il O.
board. Now as to the duty OF supervising
the registration Of plumbers, the law is
equally clear. 1t is certain that the Board
of Health would have no authority to re.
gister as plumber one who is brickmason
or carpenter.
The .sduty Of registering being imposed
upon it by law il is necessary for the board
to perform that duty. They Cannot perform
it soithont ascertainiDg whether man who
presents himself forreg gistration is plumber
and they cannot know whether he is OF not
from his mere appearance, nor can they
safely take bis own abatement. 1t fOllowsl
therefore that they must examine him
touching bis qualifications; and on these
general grounds my opinion was based.v
"As practical matter it seems to me |
ihst the action taken BY the Board is not |
only Of advantage to the public, but ii Is Of |
particular advantage 10 al persons who are
really plumbers. Il dienifies their standing |
and adds to their earning power. Protests
By those who are not really plumbars would
seem TO be entitled to little sympathy, for
no artisan should DO permitted 70 sail under

Editorial Comment.

II his annual report to the Secretary OF
the Interior, our Commissioner, very logic
ally and lucidly, argues the question oi tne
disputed title to iusular land claimed by Me
National and Insular governments. Wits
statements based upon the law ana goou
reasoning Gen. Elliott maintains the ttl'
of the Insular authorities.
What makes this question the all lmrortsni
one that it is, is not the question IL whom the
real right of title is vested, but which OF the
governments will take all this uncultivateo
land and use it in such a way that the people Of
Porto Rico pill receive the highest and best
benefits therefrcm. The legal aspect OF tne
question, which has been in dispute ever
since the American occupation could easily
be settled without delay or hesitation. Dy
either the Insular or National autnofiteS
transferring any possible right or title' one
to the other, no future dispute could arise ID
any away. By deciding the question on
legal basis or on certain legal propositions
there is always the possibility that new
phases of tue question not before considered
or thought of might at any time come up:
and until every possible phase or point OF
view was decided ON, this title would still DC
in dispute. BY transfer of title no sucb
contingencies could arise.
II the Insular authorities had no tile to
transfer then no harm would be done ano
if they weres the rightful owner OF the land,
then by their deed any past, present or tut
ure interest would pass to the National auth
critics, The same would be the case II
the National authorities transferred the
property to the Insu!ar government.
Looking at the question simply from tht
standpoint of which government would maEt
the best immediate use of the land, it ap
pears that the United States Navy aut1or
iies, s,sas,I oTs HpT slanRi sl ri t cs en- n
6tsd territory. The construction Uf tbs wort
will bring thousands of dollars TO the labor
er, skilled mechanic and tradesman OF thlI
city. Alter completion its site herr
will be the most important PORTION of oul
municipal existence. The improvement 0
the water front which is contemplated wonlt
in itself amply repay the transfer OF thu
properly to the Navy. so far as the lnsul
ar Government is concerned no plans have
as yet been made public with regard to th'
land. If plans have matured the necessary
money to do any work would be found lack
ing. When we cannot help ourselves
why not permit others to help US. TIT
United States wants this land to make I'm
mediate improvements of lasting nature
The Insular authorities if given it are mo-
in position to use it to any purpose a.
present. Let the Navy have it. Let the
Naval Station be begun. Let Uncle San
pay for it in a way that would assist the
people much more than the mere payment
Of money selling price.

We published letter yesterday ezp'a;L.
ing the causes why the many applicants fol
night school instruction could not be &C
comodated On its face the matter looks
Ike an argument between the local school
board and the municipality as to who is to
blame for the existing conditions. Without
going into the merits Of the question, this
much is certain, that the great need for
night schools which will accommodate all and
everybody that desires to attend, is met on
the part Of the authorities with the inform
alton that there is great lack of money
for the purpose, and that the school board
has done everything wi:hin its power to
assist those desirous Of learning As the
matter nov stands there ale just tVo schools,
when about five times that number could
easily be f. cd.
In q ma ter of such vast in p rtai CO as
the education Of the scorkingman there
should be no such thing as petty quibbling
over the placing Of the blame. Every
Department or branch Of the government,
Insular or Local, should consider himself
or itself liable to blame, no matter how
efficient, until every man and woman who
works during the dsy, and who desires to
spend his evenings IN obtaining IN educa
tion, is given every facility and accomoda.
tion for that purpose.
In all the cities of the Union right
classes have been established tor years, and
their success has never been in doubt The
efficiency Of their, work is proven by the
intelligence Of men aud women who are
taken away from their schools at an early
age and compelled to labor for their exis
nee. Many Of the leading merchants and
men Of promise and responsibility in the
United States have obtained all their fun
damental instruction ia the night schools.
The night classes in Hes York have become
snck an important branch Of the public ir-
struction that any attempt at interference
with them would be met With the universal
and unanimous outcry tf the entire popula
tion. They are necessity, just as much
as the day schools are, and should be
maintained with the same strict regard for
their preservation as are the day schools
The City Fathers Of Fan Juan should pay
immediate attention to Ibis matter Every
man on women that wants instruction after
the days work, should be able to receive It
without the expenditure Of . single penny
nni Without no iFopbl1 q bunting i onk
