seio no puede en- modo algun0, dentro
del caracter administrative que tienen
hoy sus funciones, moditicar las leyes
votadas por la Asamblea Legislative
| de Puerto Rico.
Cita los articulos 80 y 80 dc la Ley
Foraker, y las analiza en- sus distintas
fases, manifestando que nunca ell
Consejo, apoyandose en- la seccion 36
de nuestra ley fundamental, puede ir
contra los acuerdos de la Asamblea
Legislative.
Dirijese luego sus compaheros
del Eiecutivo,y y les recomienda que fl jen
su atencion sobre IN importante as
pecto de la question. Referese la
( ley de presupuestoS, y dice que hay
que reconocer forzosamente que esta
subsiste, y es indispensable respetar.
la. Que la moci6n del senior tesorero
entrana un horrible atentado contra
la ley de presupuostos, votada y san
cionada por la legislature, sobre la
cual no tiene ell Consejo poderes para
modifcarla en- sentido alguno. Que
desde la instauracion del regimen ci-
vii actual, Sc ha venido por ambas
Camaras legislando sobre presu
puestos, reconiendosele q la Camara
bal ell derecho de hacer sus leyes y
obteniendo 6stas la aprobaci6n del
C ngreso de Estados Unidos.
Pide que Sc axamine detenidamen-
to la proposition del tesorero, que Sc
Ia estudie en- todos los matices que
ptesenta, Sc tendra ell convencimiento
de- que ella no merece la sanction del
Consejo, Este case debs ser re
suelto-dice-en el seno de la pr6xims
legislature, dnica que puede hacer mo-
difcaciones en- las leyes vota1as POI
ALA misma.
Examina dc nuevo los artfculos
30 y SO que determinsn la boja subj
da de los sueldos y el aumento y dis
minuci6n de empleados de los distintoI
departameptos de gobierno.
Concluye ell senior Disz Navarro
manifestando que sabe, que esta cor
vencido de que aquella proposition s.
llevsra la palma de la victoria po
una fuerzs numerical que impers en- e
Consejo. Pero que Sc reserva ell de
recho de discutir mas tarde las pue
vas plazss que Sc cream en- ell proyec

refiere & unas patentes creadas por ell
municipio de Guayama, es impugnado
por el Attorney General, por conside'
rar que aquellas estan en- contradic-

La Liga de propietarios de San

Sc pone a discussion ell proyecto de
reformas en- las distintas ofcinas de
pagadurias, que presentara al Conseic
el Tesorero Mr. Willougby.
Ell senior Diaz Navarro Sc levanta
a consumir IN turno en- contra.
Dice que ha estudado detenida-

RUIN BY STORM AND FLOOD
Levees Along Mississippi River Bro
ken-People Flee in Terror-Dam-
age Estimated at $1,000, 900.

Keokuk, Ia, June 12.-Damage esti-
mated at $3,0O0,00O is the result of an
unprecedented rise of eight feet in the
Mississippi river in less than II hours.
Hundreds of families were driven from
their homes, and bridges were swept
away, railroad tracks were washed out,
trains tied up, and thousands of acres of
crops were destroyed. Back of Alexan-
dria, Mo-, 100 square miles of farming
country is flooded. The Egyptian levee
on the Missouri side, broke.
Des Moines, a., June 12.-Thousands
of dollars damage has been caused by
the overlooking of fields as result of
the storm. Three deaths by lightning
are reported-Walter Atherton, at
Charles City; Charles Frank, in Adair
county, and Sherman Wickman, at Mar
shalltown. -;
Milwaukee, June Floods caused by
two days heavy rainfall on a thoroughly
saturated district have done much dam
age in central Wisconsin. The storm re-
gion covers strip running entirely
across the state, and including the cities
of Manitowoc, Sheboygan, Fond du Lac,
i Appleton, Menominee, Chippewa Falls,
and La Crosse. The property loss in
