MISSIONARIES LEAVE FEZ
Rapidly Growing Hostile Sentiment
COmpels n Hasty Departure
from the City.

LONDON, Jan. 15.-Letters received here
recently from Fee, Morocco. say that the
rapidly growing anti European sentiment
necessitated the hurried departure from
that city OF the American missionary, Mr..
Simpson, and his wife and three English
women.
For three days prior to their departure
the women were openly cursed in the
streets, the Moors shouting as they passed,
whats this filth in our streets?"
When the American missionaries from
Mequinez arrived at Fee. the Moors ex-
claimed: "Oh, God; we thought they were
sending the cursed dogs from us, but they
are coming back"
Subsequently a body OF armed mountain
eers met the women and wheeled around
and cursed them in chorus. The mission
aries were especially urged from authorita>
tive quarters TO leave as soon as possible.
Mr.. and Mrs Simpson intend 20 remain
at Tangier for the present.
TANGIER. Morocco, Jan. 15.-Advices re-
ceived here from Fee are to the effect that
there is no probability OF the proposed ex-
patched until the sultan musters a large
force. which he will lead personally.
There was a renewal of the fighting today
between the factions outside Tangier. The
house OF British subject was threatened
with attack. The sultan's deputy sent
troops TO protect this property, whereupon
the assallants retired.
The imperial troops fred one village.
Most Of the Europeans now in Tangier fol-
lowed today's operations on horseback.

SAY COMBINE is FOUND
Chicago Grand Jury claims 60 Dis
cover illegal Coal Agree
ment.

CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-On new developments
in the coal investigation the grand jury
has widened its scope Of inquiry. On in,
formation received late yesterday sub
poenas have been sent to the sheriff OF
Sangamon county for the appearance before
It Of Charles A. Starne OF the Virden Coal
company and the West End Coal company
Of Springfield, Terrence Casey Of the Will
liams, ILL.,. Coal company, and L. w. Sem
seney Of the Alton 4 Auburn company at
Auburn.
The evidence Of the men from the Spring
field districts will form the connecting link
in the chain of evidence showing agree
ments between the operators OF Illinois and
Indiana. Several witnesses summoned for
yesterday were heard today after which
the grand jury turned its attention to the
volume Of documentary evidence.
NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-Op account of the
coal shortage the University of Pennsyl-
vania was in darkness last night. If coal
cannot be obtained today the institution
will be compelled to close and 5000 stu
dents will be out OF classes There Is
also danger Of cold to the 500 patients in
the university hospital.
An inventory taken to day at the Brook
lyu Navy yard disclosed the fact that there
is only enough coal on hand to last FIVE
days.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Before the SEN
ate committee on the District of Columbia
President Mcfarland of the 7oard of Dis
trict Commissioners testified today that on
account of the price OF coal the district
would be compelled to ask to have the APP
preparation for fuel for schools doubled.
He said that the district was now paying
50 a ton for bituminous coal.
C. NJ Wilson of this city said he had
purchased bituminous coal at Cumberland,
Md, at $3.50 per ton, but had difficulty in
getting the coal shipped.
During the hearing a letter was read
from President Loree Of the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad company saying that as his
company is only shipper of coal and not
q miner he was unable to give any informa-
tion that would throw light on the situa-
tion. He expressed a willingness to CO.
operate with the people of Washington in
securing adequate coal supply for the city.
LONDON, Jan. 15.-No large orders for
coal have yet been received from America.
The most important houses do not expect
large exports of coal to the United States.
They believe that Canadian coal will chiefly
benefit by the rebate duties. It is added
that nearly all the British coal heretofore
sent to America was ordered by spectators
the leading American merchants not being
buyers on account of the length Of time
required to secure large shipments from
England.
! Later in the day It was announced that
the price Of coal had advanced IL cents pei
! ton at the pit banks, partially due to the
/ cold weather demands and partly to in
! ereasing orders in view of the coal situa-
/ tion in America.
According to cables received in Liverpool
from America no further orders for Goa
will be booked at present, the belief beinl
I that the orders already egtsfed viii cause
a serious congestion and expensive delay IL
shipping to American ports.

legislature a joint resolution TO provide
for a constitutional amendment to permit

and the outlying territory, If any there
be, of any such county, may, by legislative
act, be attached to the adjacent county or
counties without the vote of the inhab-
itants. and to such new municipal organ
ization the right to make it's own charter
by a vote of the people within, such city
may be granted and regulated by law.
Upon the division of any county under this
provision the sections so separated shall
each pay it's Just proportion of the general
indebtedness to be ascertained and pro-
vided for as may by law be determined
No other section Of the present Law is
amended except the last which provides
for the submission of the proposed change
to the voters of the territory to be af-
fected The resolution was given unani-
nous Endorsement and the efforts of the
members OF the committee will be centered
upon its adoption.

LONDON Jan. l5.-The announcement
that arrangements had been made 10 publish

piled with the wireless telegraph seems TO
be founded on a plan which goes into effect

These messages will be sent from a wire
less station now nearly completed at Brow
Head. The Mareoni company will only un-
dertake to send messages distances Of forty
miles seaward, and for the present at least
there will be no daily newspapers published
on ships. News bulletins will simply be
displayed in various parts Of the steamers.
