CONFLICT WITH MOORS.
British Steamer IL Intercepted While At.
TEMPTING to Land Arms in Morocco.

British Steamer IL Intercepted While At.
tempting to Land Arms in Morocco.
TANGIER, Feb. 2.-The British steam.
ship Tourmaline, it is officially an.
nounced, while attempting to land
arms and stores on the coast of Mo.
rocco, was intercepted by the Sheridan
steamer Hassani, whereupon she
opened fire.
The Hassani reciprocated and cap.
tured one Of the ships boats, with
three Englishmen.
The Moorish troops then demolished
the villages favorable to foreigners,
killing a number Of the inhabitants.
The difficulty appears to have arisen
from the operations of a British min.
ing company, the Globe Venture, a
syndicate acting under a treaty where.
by the Sus chiefs granted a trading and
mining monopoly over 100, 600 square
miles of the Sus district.
LONDON, Feb. "A dispatch to The
Daily Mail from Mogador, Morocco.
says that an expedition having occu.
pied Erkzes presumably on the Sus
COAST with the assistance of the rebel
tribesmen, the sultan's troops attacked
and defeated it after severe fighting,
capturing foul Englishmen.

GLovEHsv1LLE, N. Y, Feb. 2.-The

At ! a.. m. the Alvord was a handsome,

1t was a mass of ruins. The building
burned with almost incredible rapidity,
and spectators shuddered at the thought
that some Of the many inmates would
be unable to escape from the fiery
furnace. Many of them did have mar.

five persisted. Henry G. Day, Glovers-

CONCERT OUT OF TUNE.
European Powers at Odds Over the Cues.
tiOn of Crete.

European Powers at Odds Over the Cues
ton of Crete.
LONDON, Feb. 2.-There is an impres.
sion here that the sultan, in the end.
will be compelled to accept Prince
George as governor of Crete. 1t is
strong enough to provoke discussion of
the consequences, namely, that the
Turks, with Mohammedan feeling
aroused, will be less disposed than ever
to evacuate Thessaly, and hat the
Balkan states, already disturbed and
restless, will be likely to ask compensa.
ton for Greece's virtual gain in Crete.
The European concert. as to the near
East, is temporarily dissolved, with
Germany and Austria on one side and
the other powers On the other, but it is
not beyond re.establishment.
