African Trip.
NEW YORK, June 13.-Unheralded
and unknown to thosef Oh the pier an
unassuming young gentleman, with
smooth, sun-dyed face, marched down
the gangway of the steamer Aller. He

months of which have been passed in
the heart of Africa, in regions never
before penetrated by white men. After
a warm greeting from two or three
friends Mr.. Chanler drove to the Knick-
erbocker club.
"While my expedition he said, 'has
not been entirely successful owing to
the assertions of my men and plague
resem bling lockjaw that broke out
among my camels and mules, I have
gathered a large amount of scientific
and geographical data which will COM
pose the report I propose to make
to the New York Geographical So
ciety."
Mr.. Chanler is the youngest of all ex-
plorers, being only 70 years old. He
graduated from Harvard seven years
ago.

POWERS ARE JEALOUS.

Feasibility of = War In Morocco Causing
Excitement in Europe.
LONDON, June 4. The news Of the
dispatch Of a French fleet to Morocco,
and Of the preparations being made to
reinforce it, if necessary, is attracting
considerable attention here. The news
from Morocco is far from being reas-
surfing, and civil war is anticipated.
Conflicting reports are still in circula-
in regard to the death Of the late sui
tan, and the general opinion is that Sui
tan Abdul Aziz will have to defend his
throne with the sword.
The Pail Mall Gazette referring to
the jealousy of the powers in regard to
Morocco says that danger to European
peace is due to the fact that M. Dupuy
is premier, and that he may take this
opportunity of striking flow at Eng.
ish prestige. It is added that a policy
Of aggression would be popular in
France and Spain, which countries
would certainly be satisfied with dual
control of Morocco, excluding England
from having any voice in the affairs OF
that country

Progress ON the Tariff Bill Blockaded in
the Senate.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-The absolute
blockade OF the tariff bilIin the senate
during the day was in marked contrast
with the wonderful progress made Mon
day. Not cog was turned. The en-
tire eight hours were devoted to set
speeches, preliminary to the considera-
ton of the wool schedule. MIR. Quay,
who has been quiescent for five weeks,
resumed the delivery of his speech
which has already occupied four days,
and, after spe king four hours, his
manuscript seemed unexpectedly d.
minished. Then he yielded from sheer
exhaustion, and Messrs. Pettigrew Is.
d., Power (Mon.) and PETER (Kan.)
made set speeches against tree wool.
During lull in the debate Mr.. Mitchell
Of Oregon moved to lay the tariff bill
on the table. The motion, however,
was without special significance, and
WAS defeated by a strict party vote.
