Madrid, Jan. 3.-According to in.
formation received by the Liberal the
pretender to the throne of Morocco has
entered Fee and met with good recep
tion.
SULTAN WROTE A LETTER.
Tangier, Jan. 3.-A letter from the
Sultan was read in the Mosque today
acknowledging his recent defeat, but
promising to punish the rebels soon.
SITUATION IS SERIOUS.
Madrid, Jan. 3.-Telegrams received
here from Tangier agree that the sit
uation is more serious. The postoffice
refuses to be responsible for registered
letters. One dispatch says the Sultan's
position is extremely critical, as the
Jews, of whom there are 10000 in Fez
smarting from injustice and cruelty,
are inclined to support the pretender,
and an outbreak in the city is appre-
hended.

A SECOND FALL OF EARTH
Hundreds Of Car Loads Of Ashes
are Being Hauled to the Place
on a Special Switch.

Scranton, Pa, Jan. 3.-There were
no developments today in the vicinity
of yesterdays cave-in at Oliphant, ex-
cept for few rumbling noises which
caused more fright than harm. The
cave-in covered an area of 150 feet long
and 100 feet wide. Four buildings went
into the cavity one of them being a
large hotel valued at $4,000. The cav
ity is being filled today.
Just before noon today another fall
of earth enlarged the big cave-in at
Oliphant and removed over half of the
support from beneath the Evans build
ing which stands on the corner of the
cave made by yesterdays cave-in.
Several large cracks have appeared on
the surface Of adjacent property and
the feeling of security which prevailed
at daybreak has given way to one of
e larm. The Delaware and Hudson
Company has built a switch to the
edge of the cavity and is dumping hun
d1 eds of carloads of ashes into the big
Eole. 1t will take about week to fill
1t even if it does not become enlarged.

UNIVERSAL PROSPERITY
Many Orders Placed for Engines and Oars
and Few Roads We're Peouniarily
Inselvent,

The record OF the year In car and
locomotive building is nearly
equal to that of last year, when all pre-.
vious records were surpassed. Tho ne
cessities of the railroads are more clear
ly indicated by the orders which have
been placed for new equipment than by
the number of cars and locomotives act
ually built during the year, since the
of the capacity of the various building
concerns.
The Railway Age has compiled from
Its weekly record statement showing
that during the year 1909 orders have
been placed for the building of 1856 900
freight cars, 4,700 locomotives and 2,7O0
passenger equipment cars OF the var
ious classes, including baggage, mail and
express. The figures hava been cor
rected and additions made by the Of
ficials Of the roads concerned and by the
manufacturers, and are presented in
detail. a corresponding xes ,rd pub
lishaE 5J mLe Iiaslws - r.. AJs.iuary
8, 1902, showed totals OF 1oz, 900 freight
cars, 4,340 locomotives and 2,st9 pas
senger cars.
The low-water mark of railway bank
ruptcies which was reached in 1901,
when only four receivers were appoint
ed, has scarcely been raised during the
past year, only five companies being
placed under receivership on account Of
insolvency in 1909, and these succumb-
ing to difficulties of long standing. No
road OF any Importance has failed to
meet its obligations.
Only 20 roads, aggregating 1,27O miles
out of the 2O4, 900 miles of railway in
the United States, are now being oper-
ated by receivers on account of failure
to meet their obligations The only i'm
portant road in the list, the Terre Haute
& Indianapolis, representing 43s miles,
including leased lines, is controlled by
the Pennsylvania and could be restored
to the company If the stockholders so
desired. This deducted would reduce
the insolvent roads to s3s miles-a won
,derfal change in few prosperous years.
The record of foreclosure sales also
shows rapid progress toward complete
reconstruction and solvency. In 1902
there were sold and reorganized lS roads
aggregating 500 miles and representing
a nominal capitalization of nearly $40,-
100000
