<br/><br/> Traducción de: El señor presidente 
<br/><br/> A tropical South American state ... Miserely beggars are mustering and jostling in the porch of the capital´s church for the night, when above the moans and snores, and yelping of half starved dogs, rises the cry of a man mutilated and torn to death by a crazy tramp. This is the first link of the chain of events which winds through the novel of the source of the corruption - the feared, omnipotent President.
