4 REMARKABLE SPEECH.
french Minister of Marine Gives
Voice TO Some ExtraOrdinary
Thoughts.

Bierta, Tunis, September 16.-M. Pei
Teton, the French minister of marine,
made a remarkable speech at an enter
tainment OF the municipality yesterday
evening, which, it is expected will cause
the French foreign minister, N. Delcase,
some trouble to explain. After pointing
out the Importance of Bizerta as a bull
I'VE do not say We want to make the
Mediterranean a French lake. We
have beeen cured Of The dreams Of the
great man who wishes us TO dominate
the world. But part of The Mediterran-
ear is French and will remain French.
With this powerful rampart so Well sit
uated for defense and also for attack,
and with Corsica and Toulon we can
hold h open door between the two
halves of the Mediterranean in spite of
Malta and Gibraltar. Certainly 1 do
not desire a conflict Of people against
England any more than against Italy,
but as we do not know what otherS are
doing, it is part of our duty to prepare
fir the Holy War; for the French Faith
erland against its enemies whoever they
nay be.
1 am convinced. thanks to the fellow
workers with whom l am surrounded.
that we can face every cventuality.
Security hardly exists any more for the
civilized world. At he end OF the
nineteenth century, after the. defeat of
France by the ~barharism Of Old Ger
many, we saw an offensive return of
the law of brute force. The whole
world seemed to be dominated by the
maxim: Might before right We must
then devote all our efforts to keeping
intact that focus of justice and light;
French genius"
M. Pellenton concluded with remark
ing that he would not say more at pres
ent. He had not yet become accustom-
ed to being d minister and feared he
might be carried away into expressing
his opinion Of matters which exclusive
ly concerned the foreign minister.

No Attempt Will be Made to Revise
the Tariff-ReciprOcity With Cuba.

Oyster Bay, n. Y, Sept. 16.-Senato?s
Hanna. Spooner, Allison. AIdrion and
Postmaster General Payne spent sew
eral hours with President Roosevelt to-
day and discussed with him the entire
political position, having sp :cial refer
ence to the conditions in the western
states. which the president is to visit
on his approaching trip. The parties
to the conference were v-ry reticcnt
after they returned from Sycamore
Hill, but it can be stated on reliable au-
thority. that it was decid-i to make
no attempt to revise the tarin at the
coming session of congress- that the
president is to maintain his position as
to the trusts and furth'r that he is to
insist OF his demand for reciprocity
with Cuba. 1t is understood tha- he
will fully outline his policy regarding
this latter question in some Of the
speeches he is to make on his western
trip.
1t also can be stated on excellent an
thority that the coal strike was not dis
cussed.
The presidents purpose IN having

that there had been none.
THE conference was entirely har-
monious," said one of Ibe gentlemen
who participated in it, but who declined
to have his name published
M differences of opinions developed,
and the presidents position ON the diff
ferent questions discussed was en-
dorsed. We talked over the entire po-
litical situation, especially hat il tEe
states through which the president Is
to pass. The coal strike was not

SHOOTS At POLICEMAN.
A Strange Negro Fires a Pistol at mr.
Officer While Making an Arrest.

Correspondence of The M~essenger.)
Goldsboro, y. c., September Is.
\ strange negro ran amuck on the
streets Of Goldsboro last night and
created considerable excitement for the
time being. Officer Rufus Smith T was
coming up Centre street with a man
whom he was taking to the lookup
when a pistol ball whizzed by him and
struck Mr.. Frank Durand in the leg.
Mr.. Durand was in the act Of opening
the door to the Southern Express office
to store away the express from the
northbound train which had just come
in. The officer let go his man and went
in the direction from where the pistol
was fired. He found a negro with a
pistol in his hand. The officer knocked
the negro down twice with his club
while he was snapping his pistol. The
last time the negro got up he took to
his heels and succeeded in making his
escape. No one knew the negro and no
motive could be assigned for the
shooting. The ball which struck Mr..
Durand only inflicted a small flesh
wound and the doctors decided that
probing for it would do more damage
than the ball and so they let it remain
in his leg.

New York. Sept. 16.-A conference Of
the leading anthracite coal interests
was held this afternoon at the Phila-
delphia and Reading company's offices.
Those present included President Baer
Of the Reading road: President Trues-
dale of the Delaware. Lackawanna and
Western; President Underwood of the
Erie; President Fowler of the Ontario
and Western; President Walters of the
Lehigh Valley: President Olipnant, Of
the D.. & H; Manager Bester of the
Central railroad Of the New Jersey:
c.. Irving Stearns of Cox Brothers &
Co. and John Markle of G. 3. Markle
& Co. The two last named repre-
scented the independent operating il
terests, in the hard GAL industry.
The precise subjects of the conference
could not be learned. but it was stated
in advance of the meeting that no con-
cessions would be granted, and that
recent events of a semi-political char
acter o not be seriously considered.
Following a meeting with j. P. Nor
gan. John Markle made this statement:
oo III lIliHh IL HSCeSSdIy 10 re-
peat that all talk of concessions On the
part Of the operators is foolish and GER
tailly without foundation. Our posi-
ton now is the same as when Mitchell
mao his original propositions, and no
different than when the strike began.
We said then that we would make
no concessions and we repeat 1t now
There is no reason why this should
not be understood. The operators have
shown that they mean it and I re-
peat it only by way of emphasis.
There is just one way to end the
strike-by the men returning to work,
aid every day they remain away by
giving willing ear to MitchelTs specious
promises will only entail further loss
and suffering to them. Conditions are
improving daily: more men are return-
ing to work and more coal is being
mined.
$50 far as recent attempts at settle
ment are concerned, it is only necessary
to d that every effort from Senator
Hanna down has been futile. We have
defined u position n VIII maintain
it."
John Markle left the meeting and
went to J. P. Morgan's office, where he
met P. A. 3. Widener. The meeting in
President Baer'S office, concluded j
few minutes before 8 o'clock. Presi-
dent Underwood of the Erie, as h2 was
leaving. said that the meeting had beer
merely one of directors of the Temple
Iron Company and that only routine
matters were considered. TIE Temple
Iron Company is selling company fl
the coal carrying roads and the prrsl-
dents of the leading c~oal-carryins
roads are the directors of the Temple
Iron Company, which has a capita o.

The officials at Washington are no
inclined to jump hastily dl tie conclu-
sion that the obstruction OF traffic by
government soldiers was msG;Ied by the
Columbian government itself but are
more ready to believe that the act was
for the purpose of ascertaj:.;ng if any
revolutionists occupied the train. 1t is
