OF our insular possessions the Philip

say that their steady progress has been
such as to make 1t unnecessary to spend

Congress should, ever keep in mind that
a peculiar obligation rests upon US to

these communities. The Philippines

DELNAR TROTS IN2 MIMI TIES
The JOr Equals Lou Dlllon's Worlds

Another record that borders on the
phenomenal went into turf history yester-
day when Major Delmar, long recognized
as the most formidable rival of Lou Dillon
in the two-minute trottlng list, succeeded
in putting his name alongside that Of the
recognized turf queen.
1t was a little after 4 O'Clock Yesterday
when Major Delmar was brought Out for
his real effort, at the Empire track,

dore Maxfield, George Spear, behind the
runner that drew the wind break, swung
in TO the pole and with his nose almost be-
tween the wheels Major Delmar, with A. P.
Mcdonald driving was sent on the journey.
Before reaching the first turn he lost his
balance and he was brought back for
another start.
This time there was no mistake The
ouarter-mile pole was reached in 0:3Ol5,
and then when the fastest stretch of footing
that ever echoed to the football of record
breaker was reached the pace was increased
to running horse speed and the second
quarter was trotted in O:2S-a so gait.
This brought the Major to the half in O59,
the same figures that Lou Dillon hung up
at Brighton as the record after her phe-
nonenal quarter in O2s. which Major
Delmar wiped out yesterday. The third
quarter was trotted around the turn in

On the dresser was Johns white vest,
with a new button that had been sewed on
by Kittie; little box containing six rings
and all the other jewelry he had given her

John ran upstairs to the fiat of Kitte's
mother and found the latter greatly wor-

An inventory Of the fats contents showed
that Kitty had taken nothing save the
clothing she wore and $3.50 which had been
given to her by Mrs. Dickinson.

LONDON, Sept. 2e.-The reported intention
OF France to establish a proteotorate over
Morocco has been much canvassed in the
last few days. The story which was pub
lished in THE SUN, and has since been re-
peatedly denied. is reasserted to-day.
The Paris correspondent Of the Daily
Mail says that he is able to confirm the
story on unimpeachable authority. He says
that an arrangement has been made by
France with England with the acquiescence
of Spain and, 1t is believed, with the knowl-
edge OF Italy, for the establishment of a,
French protectorate.

bility Of any international complications

There is good deal Of reason to believe
that the visit Of King Edward to Paris
brought about the inception Of the scheme.
Great Britain, in return. will receive con-
cessions elsewhere, possibly in the direction
of Egypt. Spain also will get certain
advantages.
