which are deposited with the authorities,
and every club is taking precautions in
this matter. The honorary secretary and
treasurer of the Blackburn Liberal Club re-
signed yesterday. rather than bear the
the act. The committee having the ma alter
in charge thereupon resolved to discontinue
the sale of intoxicating drinks and forego
the profit derived therefrom.
Another clause in the act provides ready
means by which husbands may escape
drunken wives, and wives drunken hus-
a ground for legal separation. Many have
already obtained relief from their marital
ties through this section, the first two cases
in London being Sir G. A. Lawson and a
street cleaner, both of whom were men af-
fiicted with drunken wives.
THE saloon keepers complain bitterly as
to what Is to be the test of drunkenness
but their trade society in London has sent
a circular to all public houses, recommend
ing that they go even beyond the require
ments of the act. 1t suggests that pub
licans shall not serve even a sober man If
he is in company with drunken man, I'M
til the latter has left the house. The cir
cular goes on TO say that they should not
allow any bad language nor drink with any
customer at the bar, nor in any part of
the house while on duty at the bar. They
must not have any money whatever on any
part of their person. Some public house
keepers are already hiring men, whose spe-
cial duty Is to keep their eye on suspects
who may become intoxicated, and suppress
bad language, betting, ETC."

TANGIER, Morocco, Jan. 4.-Accordng
to official news received here from Fee,
the adroit move of the Sultan in bringing
his brother. Mulai-Mohammed. to the cap
ital, has attained the desired object of de-
priving the pretender to the throne Of his
prestige, and the latter has retired, dis
credited, to Taxa. He has been deserted
by a number of local tribes, who dispersed
to make sure of their booty. Buhamara,
the pretender, having claimed the intention
OF. enthroning Mulai Mohammed, his rebel
lion has no longer any reason to continue.
as the Sultan has publicly reconciled him
self with his brother, and ulai-Mohammed
has made a solemn entry into Fee, &C
claimed by the populace. The Sultan has
announced the appointment of Mulai-Mo-
manned as Governor of the Province of
Fee, thus disproving the rJmors that Mu-
lai-Mohammed aspired to the throne. When
this had been done, according to the Off
cial authority for these statements, the
tribes around Fee swore fidelity to the
Sultan and denounced Buhamara as an
impostor whom they would prevent coming
to Fee.
All immediate danger has disappeared.
The routes from Fee to the coast are open.
1t Is said the Sultan is now preparing a
large expedition with the intention of
crushing the rebellion.

ANOTHER DELHI PAGEANT.


DELHI, India, Jan. 4.-The Chapter of
Indian orders, held last night, was one of
the most brilliant functions following the
durbar. 1t was attended by Lord Curzon
of Kedleston, viceroy of India, and Lady
Curzon, the Duke of Connaught repre-
sentative of King Edward, and the Duchess
of Connaught, and scores of native princes.
Among the brilliant assemblage were near
ly three hundred members of the order
Star of India, and many maharajahs.
About forty Americans were present They
included Mrs. Adair, Mrs. L. L. Letter
(mother of Lady Curzon) and Miss Daisy
Letter; Henry Phipps and family, of Pitts
burg; p. Getty, of Chicago, and Miss Getty,
and Consul General Patterson, of Calcutta,
and his family.
The hall was aglow with hundreds of
electric lights. The silken garments and
the uniforms of the Orientals, blazing with
jewels, made the scene a most brilliant one
Lady Curzon and the Duchess of Con-
naught walked up the hall together both
attired in dresses of white and silver, and
wearing diamond coronets. They took their
seats behind the golden thrones occupied
by the viceroy and duke During the cere-
mony of investiture the bands played In
peters announced the beginning of the
function a red siiken curtain at the foot
Of the hall was drawn aside and the grand
procession through the building began. The
sight was very impressive.

Duke and Duchess of Connaught and all
the distinguished visitors attended the

LONDON, Jan. 4.-The advent of the

departments participated. All foreign

The year begins with evidences of expan-
sion in every direction. Last week opened
with Americans depressed. This condition.
however, was temporary and was followed
by sharp advance, and Americans closed
Saturday showing Improvement over the
preceding week. There is a growing feel
ing of confidence in the solidity of the situ-
alton in the United States. The predicted
collapse of the market in Wall street has
not come to pass, there have peen no COM
plants Of overproductior. and no evidence
of overtrading, and these facts are quoted
I'm support of the pessimistic view. The
absence of any advance in the bank rate
is a potent bull factor here, as it avoids
forcing gold shipments from New York.
The consul account at closing last night
was enormous
While the Stock Exchange last week was
occupied mostly with the adjustment of
accounts, business was brisk and was not
affected by the reports of Chna's failure TO
pay the international indemnity in gold or
of the uprisings there and in Morocco or
by the Venezuelan situation. Central and
South American securities scored advances.

BERLIN, Jan. 4.-The Boerse enters the

months. All reports showed gains, with
the exception of few coal shares. Heavy

COAL Will BE HIGHER
INDEPENDENT OPERATORS RAISE
THEIR PRICES AT THE MINES.
The Output, However, Will BE Shipped
to the SeabOard-ReadingC Company
Ships $500 Cars of Fuel.

SCRANTON, Pa, Jan. 4-Following the
lead of the Lehigh Valley. the Jersey
Central and the Reading companies the
pany yesterday acceded to the demand of
its contract shippers to suspend the 65-35
per cent. contract until circular and actual
market prices again conform. Only about
half of the operators are selling under the
65-35 contract. They have had to be con-
tent with 65 per cent of s. on big sizes
and the same percentage of 1918 on small
sizes. the arbitrary figure fixed by the
carriers for coal at tidewater. The indie
pendents who were not under contract
terms have sold their coal at the breaker
for at least s. a ton, and the purchaser
looked after the freight.
The contract independents argued that it
was unfair that they should be bound by
an arbitrary circular price when they
could get fully so per cent. better prices,
and particularly when other independents
were getting all that the law of supply
and demand allows.
This means that the Independents are
now all free to sell their coal at the breaker
at the best price they can secure. leaving
1T to the purchaser to deal with the carrier
about freight charges In return for the
concession the independents have promised
to favor the East and New England, where
coal is most needed, and with this end in
view they have already announced that
no more coal will be sold by them at retail.
To generally discourage local consumers
from buying more coal than is actually
needed, an advance in price was agreed on,
and tomorrow Scrantonians who want
coal will have to pay s. a ton for the larger
domestic sizes. This is a dollar a ton more
than ii was selling for last week. Under
normal conditions it sells here for $3.50 de-
livered.

duction of anthracite coal.

LIMANTOUR IS ELIGIBLE.


MEXICO CITY, Jan. 4.-El Diario (offi-

completely disproving the allegations made
by a newspaper hostile to Finance Minister
Limantour. which sought to create the inn
preston that he was born outside of Mex
leo and. therefore, was not eligible TO be-
come the President of the republic Min
lister Limantour was born in this city on
the 18th day of December, 1854 and is there
fore forty-eight years of age. His par
ents were French, but residents here. and
he, therefore, stands exactly on the same
footing as various Presidents of the re-
public, one or more of whose parents were
of foreign birth.
There is also the fact TO be borne in
mind that had he been ineligible to the
chief magistracy he could not constitution
ally have been minister of finance, and all
mis- official acts would have been null and

VERY HEAVY SHIPMENTS.


READING, Pa, Jan. 4.-By midnight to-
night the Reading Company expects to
have transported to market for the preced-
ing forty-eight hours $500 cars of anthra-
cite coal. This movement of coal began
yesterday morning. and in forwarding this
quantity the company is breaking its rec
ord. To-day every locomotive of all classes
was pressed into service and all available
freight crews were called on to lend a
hand. Most of the $500 cars mentioned
were moved to-day.
The officials estimate that during the holi-
days and because the miners failed to
get back to work promptly 100000 tons of
anthracite failed to reach market.
