Una entrevista con ell
a|ca|de ST, Todd
Lo que este opina respecto
a la contribution s0bre
caminos vecinales y
arreglo del al
cantarilIado

Esta manana uno de nuestros
companeros visito al alcalde senor
Todd, quien lie recibi6 con la amabili-
dad en- el caracterfstica.
Tenia la entrevista por objeto to-
mar infOrmes acerca del tribute que el
Tesorero Mr.. Willoughby, trata de
imponer al Ayuntamienfo de San
Juan, para que contribuya con el
por ciento de su presupuesto en- la
construction de caminos vecinales.
Ell senior Todd nos manifesto, que
ST bien es cierto que San Juan no tiene
caminOs vecinales, cree que el Ayun-
tamiento accedera 4 la petici6n que
solicita ell Tesorero por estar fundada
en- una enmienda T1tulo 8, secci6n 285
del Codigo Pol1tico que dice: que sera
tasado y cobrado para el gobierno
militar municipio en- la forma ST
guiente: un por ciento para fondos
militares Y por ciento para los mu-
nicipios sera dividido pagado ca
da mes de cada ano pero cobrado por
los municipios y Sc paga al Tesorero
del Junta escolar 20 centayos y al de
Caminos 8 centavos y el resto 4 los
Tesoros de los municipios.
De manera que ell el case de que
ell Consejo Municipal asintiese al pa
go del 8 por ciento el recargo de la
contribution seria forzoso porque de
alguna parte el Consejo tendrfa que
sacar el dinero que Sc solicita.
Cree el senior Todd que en- la session
proxima sera discutida la donaci6n
segin impone la ley, el Ayuntamiento
tendra que acceder la petici6n que
solicita el Tesorero.
Esta e la opinion del alcalde. ba-
sada en- las 6rdenes terminates que
existen sobre ese asunto.
Con respecto las alcantarillas el
senior Todd reconoce la raz6n que
asiste al pdblico d la prensa para
clamar contra los malos olores que
estas despiden, mas como no es perito
en- la materia no puede adoptar por j
mismo ninguna disposition, pero esta

WILL PROBABLY BE MINISTER.
w. w. Russell to Take Charge of Lega
ton at Panama.

Mr. W. w. Russell at present secretary
of legation at Caracas, Venezuela, has
been appointed charge of the American
legation at Panama, and he will conduct
the business of the latter legation after the
departure of Minister Buchanan, who sails
from Colon next Tuesday for the United
States Mr. Buchanan will resign as soon
as he reaches Washington, IN accordance
with the understanding he had when he
accented the mission to Panama. He has
thoroughly satisfied the State Department
with his work. and as conditions now
stand his further presence on the 1sthmus
is not required. Mr.. Buchanan Will repre-
sent an American corporation in London.
Mr. Russell who takes up the retiring
minister's duties will probably in the END
be made minister. He ranks high at the
State Department because of his excellent
service for eight years as secretary OF lega-
tion at Caracas. He occupied that post
when Mr. Loomis the present assistant
secretary of state, was United states min
lister there, and he continued under Mr
RoWens administration of the mission lie
has frequently been for long periods in en-
tire charge of the legation, and in critical
times such as during Mr.. Bowens long aD-
sence in Europe in connection with Inc
Hague arbitration Mr.. Russell managed
the diplomatic relations between the United
States and Venezuela with delicacy, tact
and discretion that won for him the hlgh
regard of the officials of the State Depart
ment.
Mr.. Russell is almost a Washingtonian,
having made his home at Rockville, Md,
and being almost constantly in this city
when at home. He is the son OF the late
Admiral Russell and is himself graduate
of West Point.

OUR MILITARY POLICY.
Manuscript Of Gen. Upton Published
by the War Department

The War Department has just published
a remarkable book entitled Military Pol
icy of the United States by the late Maj.
Gen. Emory Upton. Gen. Upton's military
career, according to Secretary Root, who
directed this publication, was one of ex-
ceptional eXcellency and brillancy. There
fore no one more fit than he to under
take such a difficult task as the writing of
this work. He had not only the widest
experience in the field during the civil war
but he had perfect genius for organization
and tactics. These attainments he supple
mented by a personal tour of Europe to
observe the workings of the military Sys-
tens of that continent, one of the results
of which was the revolution of the mill
