Hon. Alcalde de San Juan.
Sefior:
Me he enterado, por la prensa perio-
dica de esta Capital, de la recomenda-
cion hecha por usted al Concejo Mt
nicipal, de que Sc hagan examiner por
personas ''muy competentes" en- ccnta--
bilidad, las cuentas 4 operaciones del
acueducto de este Municipio.
Yo felicito con entusiasmo usted Y
al Concejo Municipal, por haber toma-
do esa Corporation ell acuerdo por una
nimidad, que 70 considero trasceden-
tai para que aSi venga el convenci-
miento de todos los habitantes de San
Juan, de 81 existe 6 no ell fraude.
Tuve ell gusto de hacer esa indica-
cion al Concejo Municipal, en- el perfo-
do en- que los investigadores del Teso-
70 Sc ocupaban de sus trabajos en- estas
ofcinas, temiendome va ell resultado de.
sastroso que mi juicio tuvieron aque-
llos trabaJos.
El Ayuntamiento, con buen juicio,
comprendio la trascendencia del asunto
y acord0 que Sc realizara.
Solic;te del Attorney General los do
cumentos pedidos por la Comision de-
signada y fueron negados por aquel
funcionario, demostrando que sin duda
no era la base del escandalo la conve-
niencia de depurar la administration
municipal; quizas fue solo el deseo de
destruir los prestigios de una persona
honrada, que servfa con lealtad y sin
ceridad al Pueblo &c San Juan y al
Gobierno de la nueva Metropoli.
Yo creo que no encontrara usted
aquellos inconvenientes y le cabra la sa-
tisfaccion de sacar de dudas al pueblo
de San Juan, sobre 81 existe la defrau-
dacion en- las rentas del acueducto.
Quedo de usted muy atentamente,
M. EGOZCUE.

nicipales, el criterio de uno de
los mas connotados, respecto del
conflicto entire los vendedores v
Ell rematista. Puesto que el
Ayuntamiento tiene quien res
ponda de la suma total, dijo ell
padre del pueblo, no debemos
ocuparnos de que los jibaros
quieran pagar 9 no los diez cen
tavos que aprobo ell Concejo.
Y segun parece, esta opinion
tan peregrina, ha encontrado
partidarios de la comodidad, los
cuales han aceptado con j1bilo
una solucion tan rapida como
Unacceptable.
Els claro, que para decir este,
que no hace mucho favor a
nuestro Ayuntamiento, es pre-
clso que tengamos alg1n motive
y 10 tenemos bastante poderoso.
Anoche ha debido reunirse ell
concejo municipal para dar una
solucion a 10 de la Plaza del
Mercado. Pues, no Sc ha reuni-
do. No hubo ell numero necesa-
rio de concejales.
La idea egoista de que el re-
matista, responde de lajcantidad
pOrque esta hecho ell remate, ha
debido inspirar a los apreciables
concejales que no asistieron ano-
che a la session del Ayuntamien-
to, cuando habia sido convocada
precisamente para tratar del
Cont1icto del Mercado.
Ese alarde de tranquila indi-
ferencia frente a un asunto que
puede degenerar en- conficto,
parecenos censurable, porque ell
concejo municipal con su indo-
lencia, puede dar OCCASION a que
Sc sucedan escandalosas esce-
mas, albOrotOS V tumultOS. Y
no Sc confie demasiado en- la
inalterable calnna colectiva de
puestro pueblo, porque NADIA
tendria de extraflo que respon-
diese a la indiferencia del con-
Cejo municipal, una brusca E
inesperada manifestation, unO
de esos tumultos, tan censura-
bles y que lo'son mas aun, GUAM
do Sc han podido evitar y no Sc
ha hecho.
JQue haran los jibaros cuando
la unta de Sanidad les prohiba
vender en- el corral de las bestias
Y en- Ell suelo de las GALES?
lPretenderan acaso penetrar
por la violencia en- la Plaza del
Mercado, para verificar la venta'
Y que va a suceder entoncesi
La policia tendra que apoyar al
contratista contra los vendedo-
res, va que el concejo municipal
aprobo la tarifa puesta en- vigorl
~ no haya tenor de que los
campesinos dejen de venir a la
capital; ell hambre los acosa y
tendran que venir siempre; perC
quizas Sc desparramen por Ia
ciudad, ensordeciendo y atolon
drando con sus pregones, una
brutal griteria de voces insufri-
bles, en- porfada lucha a yer cual
anuncia mejor, con mas ruido y
mas algazara.
La perspective no puede sci
mas pavorosa. ST ell Ayunta-
miento no arregla ell asunto
cualquiera determination que
tomen los vendedores 8 ell con-
tratista, tiene que ser lamenta-
BILE. olcs
Y ESQ tiene que llegar a suce-
der, porque va Sc va hacienda
impossible la situacion tirante y
violenta en- que Sc han colocadc

1t is one thing to sell piece of prop
erty to the Territory, and quite another
thing to pay taxes upon it. The Star
last night announced that c. w. Booth
had appealed from the valuation of the
Pauoa water property made by AS
SCISSOR Pratt. Some of the members of
the legislature might be called in to
give evidence as to why the property
was valued at a quarter of a million.
incidentally it might be interesting to
find out how much Mr.. Booth actually
did pay for the springs which he was
so anxious for the public to buy.

Garvin was a man of wide culture, had
travelled much, and possessed broad
and humane views. He was a keen
observer of men and had a kindness of
spirit which drew people to him, a
magnetism which is one of the happiest
of gifts to its possessor. The deceased
divine had friends in all parts of the
world, and in no part more hearty ones
than he had here. The Star joins in
sympathy with the family, relatives
and friends of the deceased.

"A man is no good if he has no enc
mics" is often heard said.
1t is the same with a standard ar
ticle of any manufacture. But the
man that is decried because some one
has private grudge against him does
not suffer in the least. Those who
know him are ever ready to speak well
OF him-because spite is so evidently
the spirit that moves his biased critics.
Also, the article of trade which is ac-
cepted as standard-The Douglas Pat.

Lord Salisbury has been failing for
years, and the break up of the strong
constitution will probably be rapid.
Lord Salisbury has left his mark upon
the history of his country, and when
his administrative acts are valued
against those of other more snowy
statesmen, it will be found that he has
been patriotic, diplomatic and far seeing
beyond the glittering policy of those
whom his contemporaries valued more
than they did him. He was to Queen
Victoria what his ancestor Burleigh
was to Elizabeth Tudor.

Tanbara has made a confession of
his crime. He duplicates the cook
The confession settles all doubt as to
whether Tanbara will be righteously

TopssIIant Disappearing.

The hulk OF the old Topgallant
which has been lying in Rotten Row
for long period. is fast disappearing
under the assaults of the Japanese
who are dismantling her of everything
that can be turned into money. BlaHt-
ing powder is being used to rip up the
hulk and the booming OF the charges
is frequently heard over the haroor-
On the Eva side OF the Topgallant
are the remnants OF the bones Of the
Rosaie and on the Waikiki side those
of the Sebastian Bach and the Twi-
light. Under an order issued from
the Department of Public Works last
November these wrecks were to be
removed entirely from the Row but
for some reason have not yet beer dis
turbed- They are now resting on
foundations OF mud and the harbor
silt Is rapidly accommodating there and
rendering the place useless for the
future mooring of vessels.
