Governor Tyler will make no reply
to the request of Secretary Lawless
that he give the name or names OF
those who told him that Mr.. Lawless
inspired the O'Fllherty resolution.
Governor Tyler is reported to have
told several members of the con-
stituutional convention that he knew
who suggested the examination of the
contingent fund to Mr.. O'Flaherty,
but that he used no names. Mr.. O'Fla-
herty positively denies that anybody
mp' he slightest suggestion to him.
10 Tyler said this morning tina.
/ Il not think that it was indicate
o. out ofplace for Mr.. L,wless to have
made the suggestion and that he had
thought il any good came of it Mr..
Lawless should have the credit for it.
This puts a different light on the
subject, and explains how the Gov
ernor came TO believe the rumors. He
said that he did n OF recall who told him
about the matter.
The part of the matter which the
friends OF MIR. Lawless most resent
was the imputation that the Secretary
would seek to vent any luminosity in
a sneaking way. That Mr.. Lawless is
Secretary of the Commonwealth and
member OF the Governors official fam.
lily would privately inspire the inves-
tigation of funds handled oy his
chief.
1t is known that the most cordial
relations 10 not exist between the
officers, and Major Heath Tyler said
this morning that there were eek
traneous and outside things" that might
have influenced the Governor in his
belief OF the rumor connecting the
name of MIR. Lawless with the con-
tingent fund examination.

MoRocco's SULTAN.
Correspondent Tells of His Llfe-Hia
Wild Animal Collection.


New York, Nov. 1S.-A correspon-
dent of the London and New York
Times, wiring from Mariekash (city
Of Morocco), states that he has just
had a long audience with the sultan
of Morocco.
On entering the palace, says the
correspondent, he was conducted
through an open square. On one side
of it were cages containing his ma
iesty's collection of wild beasts, while
roaming about were Barbary wild
sheep, gazelles, wild boars and cranes
The sultan, Mulai Abdul FL Azziz,
the dispatch goes on to say, is tall
and we'll built, with a most intelli
gent and most pleasing expression and
with fascinating manners. No inter
prefer was presBt at the audience, the
conversation being in Arabic through
out. There is, declares the CORE
spondent, no doubt in regard to the
soundness of the sultan's views, but
he is much hampered by surround
ing influences and honest viziers are
required. He makes no secret of his
desire to reform every branch of the
government. The correspondent ex-
pected to find typical, expression
less Oriental, where he found young
man full of energy. He says he left
the palace more hopeful than ever
that there is possibility of bright
future for Morocco.

President Roosevelt Discusses Reel
procity Question.
Washington, November 18-The
presidents time today was occupied
largely in the discussion of reciproci-
ty. Senator Cullom of Illinois, and
Representative Dalzell of Pennsylva-
MIA, had something to say to him upon
that subject and a delegation of agri-
cultural implement manufacturers con-
sisting Of James Deering of Chicago,
A. B. Farquhar of York, Pa, and w.
c. Barker of New York, who are here
to attend the reciprocity convention
which meets tomorrow, presented a
memorial strongly urging that some
thing be done. The delegation told
the president that, in it's opinion, the
time for action had come. Reciprocity
for years and unless a decisive step
was taken now which would effect
something the whole subject might
well be abandoned. The members of
the delegation said that they had no
particular interest in any of the trea-
ties, but thought taken altogether,
that the French treaty more nearly
represented the best possibilities in
the way of reciprocity and that if it
could be ratified a distinct victory
would be won.
Senator Cullom, after his interview
with the president talked in the same
vein. His attitude is considered i'm
portant, as it is now practically set
tied that he will be at the head of the
foreign relations committee.

ly as | expect them to I will be in
Paris by Christmas, on which day I

here. Of course we will open a house
in Washington, but only during the
time the senate is in session."

In Spite of Rumors to Contrary, His

London, Nov. 18.-A dispatch to The
Chronicle from Rome says:
I'm spite of persistent and apparent
ly well founded denials that there is
any imminent danger of the pope's de-
cease, the air is full of speculation
and apprehension indicating that his
end is not considered far off. Rumors
of intrigue and slate-making, which
it is impossible to keep from the out
side world, exude from every crevice
of the jealousy guarded inner pre-
cincts of the vatican.
The pope's closest personal attend
ants include his faithful valet, Cen
tro, one chaplain and one minor prel-
ate, who constantly and tenderly guard
his material comfort. His meals are
served in L$s private apartment at
small table at which none other, even
a crowned head, may sit down. No
feminine hand may tend or soothe the
august invalid.

TRAGEDY AT MOBILE.
Husband Kills Woman He Thought
Was His Wife.

Mobile, Ala, Nov. 18.-Peyton Alex
ander killed an old woman named
Sarah Brown at Plateau, near here,
at an early hour yesterday morning.
Alexander came from the Gulf and
Ship Island railroad looking for his
wife. He went into several houses, in
discriminatory striking women, think
ing each was his wife. He was told
she was in certain house and went
there. There was no light in the
house, and Alexander shot a woman
who was in bed. He then beat her
with an ak and shovel handle, ter
ribly mutilating her.
When the murder was discovered a
chase after Alexander was begun and
he was captured by two members of
a negro vigilance committee, who held
him for the deputy sheriffs.
A mob of about three hundred me-
groes attempted to take the prisoner
and lynch him, but he was finally
brought to the county Jail. He will
make no statement.

Disaster Occurred Along the Main
Pipe Line of the Wheeling Gas Com
pany at Buffalo Village and Was Re-
suit OF Mistake-List of Casualties.
Washington, Pa, Nov. ia nat
ural gas explosion occurred along the
main pipe line of the Wheeling Gas
company, at Buffalo village, miles
west of here, last evening, which re-
suited in injuries to six men, two of
whom will probably die The explo-
sion was caused by the gas igniting
from torch in the hands of one OF a
gang of repairmen. The injured are:
S. Bronsell, burned about the head
and arms; it is thought he inhaled
the flames and may not recover.
Lyle Maxwell, burned about the face
and body; may not recover.
John Wallace, burned about the
head and arms.
Martin Hogan, severe burns in the
face.
George Denison, severe burns.
Carl Martin, slightly burned on
hands and face.
The big gas main of the Wheeling
Gas company sprung a leak near Buff
falo, and the company sent out re-
pair party The gas was turned off
all day and the men were at work in
deep ditch making the repairs. AS
darkness fell several torches were
used to give the men light.
The repairs were almost completed,
when, through some mistake, the gas
was turned on at the gates and came
rushing along through the main with
great pressure. Bronsell, ignorant of
the fact that the gas had been turned
on, was holding the torch near an
opening and the explosion resulted.
