Yo, desde estas lineas, recomiendo
encarecidamente al senior alcalde que,
destinando una persona que SO entien-
da dnica y exclusive amente de hermo-
scar los iardines que intercalan el pa
SEQ, asi indud ablemente, 10 garautiza-

mo aspecto. Uno de los factores prin-
cipalisimo conque siempre deben con-
tar los paseos pdblicos son los bancos
y de este elemento de suma necesidad
Sc carece en- absolute en- nuestro ePar-
terre.1
Tamb6u es de imprescindible ur-
gencia ell aumento de faroles para ell
alumbrado, pues resulta hasta cierto
extreme algo defciente y hasta puede
acarrear fatales consecuencias, toda
vez que ese alumbrado que ain Sc ST.
que usando aqui, produce una luz muy
opaca hemos visto noches en- que ell
referido sitio de recreo que nos ocupa
Sc envuelve en- una oscuridad tetrica
y la noche con su faz l6brega y ame-
nazadora, lie convierte en- ciertos casos
en- un autro de inmoralidades.
Oh, este es muy triste y desdice
mucho de la cultura de un pueblo CO.
mo ell nuestro, Els precise, pues, que
10 mas pronto possible Sc subsaue este
olvido, 81 tai puede llamarse, y que
debe tenerlo muy en- cuenta ell senior
Alcalde. Secunde nuestra benefca
idea ell seflor Torregrosa quien es ell
llamado q secundarla ponerlaen en- Was
de hecho, y asf habremos cooperadO
todos al paso de avauce que inicia q
Aguadilla en- ell camino del progreso.
Esperamos que nuestro nuevo AL
calde que tom6 ell dfa las riendas
del poder, por este Ayuntamiento, nos
olga y Sc haga partlcipe de los senti-
mientos de todo un pueblo.
De 10 pasado, releguemoslo al

HAY AND CASSINI PLAY
 THE GAME OF DIPLOMACY

ation to your excellencys note of the 18th. in rejoinder to the note ad- dressed to vou on the 17th.
 Your excellency now states that the declaration of China is met by the facts adduced by the imperial Russian government as matters of, public knowledge, and you specifically state the case of the Ryeshitelni at Chefoo as an instance of the disregard of Chi nese neutrality by Japan, and of the unwillingness of China to force the neutrality which she has assumed the obligation.
 Tt does not seem incumbent upon mo to take up the question your note seems to present. touching the assert- ed inaction of the United States and Europe. So far as the course of the United States is concerned. the corre- spondence exchangeu at the time shows that the seizure of the refugee torpedo boat In the port of a neutral by one of the belligerents found no encour- agement whatever; while our attitude when the Askold and her companion vessels subsequently, took refuge at Shanghai was in full encouragement of the efforts and eventual success of China in enforcing neutrality.
 win watch and Wait.
 The interest of so many powers be- ing deeply affected by the continuance and observance of the neutrality of China and their koen solicitude for the maintenance of that neutrality and its observance by both the belligerents having been so conspicuously mani Tested on many occasions, the govern ment of the United States does not at this moment feel that it Is called upon to express an isolated judgment or to consider the adoption of an individual course of action looking to the obser- vation of that neutral status which we all desire. It would on the other hand seem that this general solicitude of all the interested states would make it expedient and proper that the matters ooncerning which the Russian govern ment raises an international issue should be considered in a conference of the powers"
 The correspondence closes with o translation of the reply of the Chinese Foreign Ofice to the Russian charge. an abstract of which was telegraphed recently from Washington by the As- sociated Press.

Responses Show That Chinese Territo-
 rial Integrity VIII Be Maintained.
 Washington, Jan. 2s.--The full text of Secretary Hays circular telegram to the Powers of January IS. intended to insure the protection of Chinese integ- rity, no matter what may be the out come of the war now in progress be- tween Russia and Japan, has been made public here.
 The telegram was sent to the Ameri- can Ambassadors and Ministers to Ger many, Austria, Belgium. France. Great Britain, Italy and Portugal. all neutral powers. thus leaving Russia and Japan bound in this respect only by their orig inal pledges given in the early days of the war. All of the powers ad- dressed save Belgium and Portugal have replied to the American represent ations, the correspondence showing them as entirely agreeing with the position taken by the Government of the United States and declaring their constant adhesion to the policy of in- tegrity of China and the open door in the Orient"
 The text of the secretary's note is as follows:
 Tt has come to our knowledge that apprehension exists on the part Of some
 
 gotiations for peace between Russia and Japan, claim may be made for the concession of Chinese territory to neu- tral powers. The President would be loath to share this apprehension, be- lieving that the introduction of extra neous interests would seriously em- barrass and postpone the settlement of the issue involved in the present con- test in the Far East, thus making more remote the attainment of that peace which is so earnestly to be desired.
 For its part, the United States has repeatedly made it's position we'll known and has been gratiied at the cordial welcome accorded to its efforts to strengthen and perpetuate the broad policy of maintaining the integrity of China and the open door in the Orient whereby equality of commercial oppor- tunity shall be enjoyed by all nations Holding these views, the United States disclaims any thought of re- served territorial rights or control in the Chinese Empire. and it is deemed fitting to make this purpose frankly known and to remove all apprehension on this score so far as concerns the policy of this nation, which maintains so considerable a share of the Pacific commerce of China and which holds such complete possessions in the West ern Pacific, almost at the doorway of China.
 You will bring this matter to the notice of the Government to which you are accredited and will invite expres. sions of it's views thereon. "John Hay"
