o continue tho sessions of the convention
and to refer tho amendment to tho special

The urgumcnl turned on the question
whether tho convention had power to adopt

Today Fenor Nunez, representing tho com
aervntlves, argued that tho delegates were
empowered to call for tho convention to
establish permanent relations with tho
United States and ought not to nttcmpt
to shirk this duty. General Sangullly con
tended that tho Intention nt tho original
