pay to extract it and the promoters be-
lieve the water contains % per cent.
Some Of the water has been sent to

THE BANDITS TERMS.
The Sultan Will Accede to lis
Demands.
To Expedite the Release OF the Cap
tVe5-United States Marines
Landed at Tangers ID Pro-
tect Belgian Legation.

Washington, June 9.-The state de-
partment has received unofficial assur-
ance through Mr. Gummere who had
it from the British consul at Fez, that
the sultan of Morocco will accede TO
all Of RaisUli's terms. The bandits
demand that Great Britain and the
United States shall guarantee the exc
cutiOn of the sultans promises, how
ever, is the sticking point and this
probably can be gotten around only
by the acceptance of this obligation
by Great Britain or France, or some
other country not so strongly bound
as the United States, by its traditions
not to entangle itself in the internal
affairs of other countries. 1t is stated
positively that under no conditions can
the United States government execute
these guarantees.
Tangier, Morocco, June 9.-The sui
tan's letter in reply to the diplomatic
representations made in regard to the

noon. 1t is said by a person in the
sultans confidence that the sultan has
given orders to grant all of the con-
ditiOns demanded by Raisuli, the bar
dit leader, in order to expedite the re-
lease of the captives.
Washington, June 9-Surprise was
caused Wednesday afternoon by the
announcement that a cablegram had
been received from Adm. Chadwick, in
command of the American squadron
at Tangiers, that at the request of tho
consul general he had landed marines
to protect the Belgian legation. The
authorities are in doubt as to what
has developed to require the landing
of marines. 1t is believed that the
other powers now will land men and
the situation is believed tense.
It is said at the state department
that there is ample precedent for the
employment of the American naval
force for the temporary protection Of
the exposed interests of another pow
or which has no available forces ct
hand. A few years ago it was The
common understanding that British
vessels should protect American in
terests in South American ports where
the United States had no warships and
that the United States gunbOats
should look after British interests eX.
posed in the same way. He have also
looked after German interests in San
Domingo and elsewhere. 1t is stated
that Adm Chadwick in landing his
marines in Africa for the first time
in half a century therefore was but
meeting the requirement of interna-
tional comfy 1t is supposed here that
the Belgian legation is an outlying sec.
ton of the city easily accessible to
the tribesmen of the interior.
