Sultan Has 25,ooo Men Now in the
Field,

Tangier, Morocco. Jan. 22.-An Eng
lish drill sergeant in the service of the
sultan has given the following details
of the composition of the sultans ar
my: He says the imperial forces TO-
tai, $4,000 men, including shereefian
body guard of 1000 picked men, all of
whom are armed with Martini Henry
rifles. Of the remainder 80 per cent
are armed with imitation Martini-Hen-
rvs manufactured in Fez, and the bal
ance of the sultans soldiers carry old
tlintlocks and muzzle leaders,
The artillery consists of twenty
breech loading Krupps, twenty-three
muzzle leaders, twelve Maxims, and
twenty-one other machine guns. 1t is
almost impossible to train the natives
to handle artillery, as they believe can
non to be the invention of the devil.
The gunners spend much time in
prayer after firing each round, while
many of the natives refuse altogether
to serve the guns.

London, Jan. 22.-Diplomatic cir
cles are much aroused by the news of
the bombardment of Fort San Carlos,

rious embassies seem equally as ig-
norant as the foreign office regarding
its cause. The belief prevails that
the step taken by the German COM
mander will seriously delay the settle

There are many indications that the
blockade will not be raised for the
present and that the negotiations at
Washington will proceed with per.
haps a modified form of blockade or
some similar arrangement as a pre-
liminary basis.

Eazens undoubtedly have excellent pro-
liabilities for securing the location of
federal court in Ottumwa, if the
Z concerted movement in that direction
! started by them is vigorously pursued.
I Congressman John +. Lacey is inter-
ested in the project and would un-
sdoubtedly take hold of the matter and
do all he can to bring about its con-
summation, if the members of the
illegal fraternity in Ottumwa and vi
b cinity will get the thing started.
{ Need Combined Action.
/ It is felt, by those interested in the
matter here, that combined effort
on the part of the citizens OF Wapello
and the adjoining counties, such as
tSDavis, Appanoose, Monroe, Mahaska,
;Keokui and Jefferson, is the prime
4 snecessity. It is apparent that it would
Z be useless for Congressman Lacey to
= take the matter up and arbitrarily de-
y mand the location of federal court

support. A half-hearted support of

1t is intimated, however, that should

While this is not the first time agi

Co. Testifies Before Strike Commits.
sion Alleging That Contracts Were
Always Let to Lowest Bidder.

indianapolis. Jan. PA clash oc-
CURED today between the conservative
and socialistic factions of the miners
convention. 1t originated in a reso-
luton from some obscure local union,
favoring and expression on the ques-
tion of government ownership of coal
mines and railroads The motion on
the part of the conservatives to table
it brought on long discussion. The
socialistic faction based it's arguments
on the anthracite strike and the COM
bination of coal companies and rail
roads and held that the tendency was
not to treat with the miners according
to the laws of man or God" and that
this condition made it necessary for
the government to take some such ac-
ton. The controversy finally ended
by referring the matter back to the
committee.
To Lowest Bidder.
Thomas Thoms, district superin-
tendent of the Lehigh Valley Coal Co.,
testified before the coal strike com
mission today that in cases where a
contract. with the miners is bid for,
the work of the contract is given to
the lowest bidder. He stated that in
one instance saloon keeper, who was
not employed in the mines, was award.
ed the contract to cut coal, and that
he never entered the mine, but had
other men do the work for him.
