Interesante decision.

modo general la facultad que tenia Ell
gobierno militar para enmendar las le-
yes existentes en- aquel entonces de
una manera expresa clara dispuso que
continuarian vigentes las leyes y orde-
nanzas que estaban en- vigor, hacienda
excepciones en- los casos en- que resulta-
ban alteradas, enmendadas lnodilca-
daS por la nisma Acta, que lutheran

No hay que decir que en- Ell principle
general de enmendar modificar una

de hacerlo en- forma alguna que pueda
afectar de alg1n modo destruir dere-
chos sustanciales de las parties. El mis-
mo Congreso no podia tener ese podcr.
En- ninguna parte de la Naci6n puede
decretarse ley alguna que pueda privar
a una persona de la vida o propiedad
sin Ell debido procedimiento de ley. 7
este principle, en- cuanto la propie-
dad, fue ell que Sc discutio en- Ell case
de ochoa " Hernandez, SUPRA, y su
uuebrantamiento tenia que llevar Ell Sc

tutacion bien distinta con la enmienda

mento para la Ejecuc16n de la Ley Hi
potecaria. La disposition de ditho ar
t6culo es de puro caracter adi,stivo, nj
infringe o lesiona ningun derecho sus-
! tancial de parties interesadas; su dero-
gaci6n era mas bien en- benefcio de
la rapidez de los procedimientos y por
tales razones estaba dentro de las IA
cultades del gobierno militar la enmien

citado.
Els cierto que en- el case de Luce
Sc declare que ell artfculo 81 estaba en-
vigorl pero nj las parties en- ese asunto
hicieron referencia dicha orden gene
raj nj este Tribunal la tuvo presente al
resolver el case. En- cuanto al case de
Benet, Sc trataba de un mandamiento
Ebrado por un marshal de un distrito
al registrador de otro distrito diji-
mos que como. las facultades del mar
shall estan limitadas a su demarcacion

rigirse directamente al Registrador de

el case presente no fu6 Ell marshal de
Ponce el que Sc dirigio al registrador
de Arecibo sino el subsecretario de la
corte y pudo hacerlo de acuerdo con
la orden general No. 100. Els verdad que
el articulo 245 del C6digo de Enjuicia-
miento Civil del afio 1904 dispone que
Ia orden de ejecrci6n podra librarse al
marshal de cualquier distrito de la isla
pero creemos que este articulo no ha
enmendado la orden general No. 100.
A virtud de las razones expuestas, la
nota del registrador debe ser revocada.

Blasts Fired in Adjoining
Mine Thought to Have
Been Answered.
RESCUE WORK HURRIED
Tunnelling Squad Reports
Five Explosions Heard
After Their Shots.

JACKSON, Cal, Sept. 4.-The night
crew of rescuers working in the Ken
nedy mine in an attempt to reach
forty seven men entombed eight days
in the Argohaut gold mine, declared
on coming to the surface to-day that
when two signal blasts were fired on
the 800 foot level, they were posi-
tive they were answered by five eX-
plosions coming from the Argonaut.
The miners declared that the sounds
could not have been caused by falling
rocks. 1t would have been impossible
to hear such sounds through the thick
walls of stone that separate the two
mines, they said -
All Jackson is rejoicing over the re.
port, for a feeling of certainty that
the men imprisoned for a week still
live now exists.
Mine officials refused to comment
on the statements of the miners or tC
give out anything official on the re.
port.
There was no Labor Day demon
stration in Jackson to-day. Every
available miner of the Kennedy anC
Argonaut Companies reported at his
post to work on the rescue crews
still fighting ceaselessly in the almost
vain hope of digging out miners.
Three days more must pass before
either the men attempting to force
their way down the main Shaft oil
those tunnelling in from the adjacen
Kennedy mine can hope to reach the
victims.

FAILS TO UNEARTH
MURDER PLOT IN
JOHNSON SHOOTING
District Attorney Says All
Evidence Points to
Accident.
GUEST LIST SECRET.
No Disclosure as Ia NotableS
Who Made Up Party at
Jack CliffOrd'S.

PLATTSBURG, Sept. d.--District
Attorney Harold 4. Jerry, who, with
state Troopers. has been investigating
the shooting of A. NJ. "Buddie" John
son at the camp OF Jack Clifford, on
Chateaugay Lake, last Thursday
night. said to-day. after consideration
of his own findings and the verbal
report of state Troopers, that as far
as he was concerned the case was
closed In view of this finding. he
declined to disclose the names of the
stage and screen notables said to have
been ut the Clifford camp. IL was
reported this afternoon that Johnson 5
chances for recovery remain doubtful.
The District Attorney said his in
vestigation showed no motive for an
attempt TO murder Johnson, that there
was no evidence of any attempt to
commit suicide, since the location OF
the wound would contradict this the
ory; that Johnson's own statement
made in the hospital, was that the
shooting was accidental while ne was
engaged in cleaning revolver.
One Of the discrepancies in the
stories told thus far, according &c
Sergt Boycc. is that clifford, who is
former husband and dancing part
ner of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, has told
the state police that it was not MS
revolver with which Mr.. Johnson was
shot. Mr.. Clifford also has said, ac-
cording to Sergt Boyce, who visited
the camp yesterday, that none of the
guests heard a shot, but were at
tracted to the Johnson apartment by
n scream and in the belief there was
a fight.
At the hospital, where Mr. john
son underwent an operation after nc
had been moved with difficulty from
the camp in the Adrondacks, II was
said to-day that his condition was
slightly improved, but Vpt he was
not out of danger. HIS wife, his
mother, Mrs. G. f., Baync, and his
brother, Tom L. Johnson, who have
been at hotel here, were reported
to have left the hotel last night with
out making known their destination.
Every one was in bed at the time
of the shooting. Mr.. GlLtord tod the
police, Sergt, BoyCc said. Just pre-
vious to the shooting there had been
"A party at the camp, 1t also wa.
learned. Mr.. Clifford also is declared
to have indicated that the only ones
who knew the facts Of the shooting
were Mr.. Johnson and his wife, as
| they were the only ones present wh'r
| it happened. Mrs. Johnson Is said
to have just been entering her hrs
bands apartment when the revolver
exploded.

The possibility was foreseen that
