CHASING A SULTAN
Consul General Gunnere Is After
the Moorish Ruler.
HE MUST SETTLE UNITED STATES CLAIM
Cruiser New York Arrives at Gibraltar. and
will Convey the American Official
from Tansier to Mazasan.

GIBRALTAR, March 25.-The ar
mored cruiser New York arrived here
today. The New York will convey Mr..
Gummere, United States consul gen.
eral, from Tangier to the seaport of
Mazagan, whence he will ttavel over
land to Morocco City, TIE political
capital of Morocco, there to demand
from the sultan an apology for an ap-
parent discourtesy to the United
States, committed by the sultan's
grand vizier and his minister to for
eign affairs. At the same time, Mr..
Gummere will request the sultan to
settle certain claims of the United
States long pending against the gov
ernment of Morocco. these claims
arose largely from alleged undue in
reference by officials of the sultan
with American citizens doing busi-
ness in Morocco. When Mr.. Gum
mere said he would see the sultan
personally on the matter of these
claims, he was told by the grand
vizier and his minister of foreign af-
fairs that any such effort would be
useless, as the sultan would remove
himself and his ministers from their
capital, Morocco City if the Ameri-
can consul attempted to visit them
there. This discourteous statement
constitutes the offense for which the
Moroccan government has been asked
for apology and to secure which apol-
ogy Mr.. Gummere, backed up by the
New York at Mazagan, will travel
overland to the sultan's capital.
The United States experienced
some difficulty and delay last year in
securing the payment of $4,000 from
Morocco for. the latter's failure to
make any attempt to punish the lead
ers of mob who burned and killed
the naturalized American citizen,
Marcus Ezequi, at Fez, last June,
After considerable correspondence on
the matter and after the United
States had threatened to send a war.
ship to Tangier, Morocco paid the
$4,000 in question.

ANXIOUS TO ASSIST CHINA.
Ministers Desire to Put Her on Her
Feet,

PEKIN, March rs. The British
headquarters here report the with
drawal of both the Russian and Brit
ish troops from the disputed terri
tory in Tien Tsin. M. De Giers. the
Russian minister to China, believes
that everything will be amicably ad-
justed at London and ST. Peters
burg, and doubts the probability of
further trouble in the matter. Gen
eral Voyron, commander of the
French troops, has ordered a new
regiment to Tien Tsin to replace the
one now here. French officers here
think it was mistake to leave a
regiment recruited in a city at Tien
Tsin. This regiment was composed
of a tough Paris element.
At the meeting of the ministers
held this morning, the only question
considered was that of policing the
legation quarters. A committee of
commissioners has been appointed to
discover China's resources and re-
port on her ability to pay the indem.
nifty to be demanded by the powers.
Many ministers are strongly op-
posed to China's having to pay to
keep an army Of from 10000 to r..
900 men here for the next two years,
thinking this entirely unnecessary.
Even those ministers who were here
during the siege were tired of see.
ing Pekin military camp. They
hope China will be put on her feet
as soon as possible.

TOOV[RTURH BRAZIL
Details of the Monarchist Plot
Have Been Revealed.
MUCH EXCITEMENT IN RIO DE JANEIRo
High Officers in the Navy and Army Involved
Assassination of President Saiee
Was to Have Been Signal.

NEW YORK, March 27.-A dispatch
to the Herald from Rio Janeiro says:
Great excitement prevails here
over the arrest of Admiral Custodio,
Jose Mello and others, on account of
the discovery of monarchist plot
through the suicide of Baron de Bur-
gal. Extraordinary precautions are
being taken by the government to pre-
vent any outbreak. Apprehension CEN
ters about the navy. The war vessels
are being closely guarded, as it is be-
lieved that the officers are not quite
trustworthy.
Details of the plot which Baron de
Burgal revealed to the authorities have
been revealed. It was the purpose of
those concerned, it is declared, to give
the signal for the outbreak by the as
sassination of President Campos
Sales. During the excitement that
followed, the monarchist adherents in
the army and navy were to take pos
session of the city and hold the gov
ernment Offices. The affairs of the
state were to be intrusted to a trium-
virate composed of Admiral Mello,
Marshal Canturia and Counsellor La
Fayette Pereria. Admiral Mello was
quietly removed from this city, as it
was feared that his presence would
cause disturbances. He was conveyed
to Cobias island, where he is held in
the custody of Admiral Proenca.

POSITION OF CHILE.
She is Determined to Keep Tacna and
africa. go ~

NEW YORK, March 27.-Chile's
purpose to retain the provinces of Tao
ma and africa, notwithstanding the pro-
tests of Peru and Bolivia, is formally
acknowledged in an official statement
OF the Chilean case communicated to
the United States and other powers,
says the Washington correspondent of
the Herald. The announcement of this
purpose is coupled with charges of
bad faith made by Chile against Peru
and Bolivia. These charges are coun-
ter to similar allegations made by the
two last named countries against
Chile.
Chile seeks to prevent any interven-
tion on the part of the United States
in the South American dispute. Peru
and Bolivia are utilizing every chan
mel to bring pressure to bear upon the
administration to induce it to take ac-
tion. The president has definitely de-
cided, however, that he will not take
