sisting of the five city commissioners

the law Of the. state the commissioners
will formally appoint themselves
members of the department. Corpor-
alton Counsel Morrill, has forwarded
an opinion to Mayor Hindley, saying
that the plan will not violate the state
law, which, he adds, does not require
the board of health Of any city to be
composed entirely of physicians. May
or Hindley also has been designated
spokesman for the municipality. An
ordinance adopted at a recent meet
ing provides that the mayors chief
duties shall be to represent the city

Chief TOPIC
MEXICO CITY
nv Associated Press.)

Mexico City.-March 25.-The resig-
nation of President Diaz's cabinet last
night continues to be the absorbing
topic in all official and public quar-
tiers.
The chief interest is now centered
in the question, who will be desig-
mated for more important positions in
the cabinet, but nothing Of definite
character was made known during the
early hours today. The announce
ment Of the designations while vague
ly forseen for some time came with a
distinct suddenness and caused more
or less surprise last night.
The completeness Of the change al
so was noted with interest as the res
ignations comprised the entire min
istry. The designations also will en-
brace Corell as a member of the cab
met but not as vice president. o.
fetal reason given for the designations
was the belief that it would assist In
reestablishing peace and facilitating
reforms.

The gorge of ice at Mandan Lake

the gorge at Washburn at II p. m.
This caused rise of five feet at Bis

gorge was completely broken at Wash
