FIGHT OVER GEN. cRoNJE.
Hero of the Boer War Has Apparently
Siqned With Two Manaucrs,

Signed With Two Managers.
st. Louis, Nov. 25.-General P. A.
Cronje hero of the Boer war and cen
trail figure in the spectacle at the
worlds fair, may become the bone of
contention in a fight in the courts.
Two Boer war spectacle companies
seek his services and the question of
validity of contracts, to which he has
affixed his name probably will lead to
another spirited epoch in the South
African soldiers career.
w. A. Brady, the theatrical promoter
who is here with the Two Orphans
playing at the Century, said last night
that he had secured General Cronje
for mammoth reproduction of the
Boer War in New York next spring. C.
W. Wall, director of the show at the
worlds fair in which Cronje figures,
and organizer of a new company to
place the spectacle on the road for a
winters tour and a summer engage
ment at the metropolis, declared that
he, too. has a contract with the veteran
Transvaaler.
Brady intends to send Cronie to New
York. Wall expects to keep the gem
eral here. The veteran himself is say
ing nothing.

Many pictures of animals attacks

REVOLUTION THREATENED.
sultan of Morocco I'm Bad Favor with
People.

London, June 13.-The Tangler cor
respondent of The Times says:
"A we'll organized and widely spread
plot to depose the Sultan of Morocco
exists throughout Morocco. 1t has no
connection with the late rebellion. but
originated with the religious and edu-
Gated classes and is supported by many
shereefs and other influential persons,
including members of the Moorish Gov
eminent.
The Sultan is cognizant of the pro-
posed revolution and may be obliged
to leave Fee because he has not the
forces to withstand such a universal
rising.
The revolution was arranged before
the terms of the Anglo-French, agree
ment were known. but that adds fuel
to the FIRE as the Sultan is now accused
of selling the country to France.
The conspirators have no fixed plans
beyond deposing the Sultan and the
government. which they believe would
postpone the dangers now threatening
Morocco"

Washington, June 12.--One or more

Oficiais decline to say just what the
program of the administration as to
the future movement OF the vessels. but
do say that the cruise in the Mediter-
ranean of some of the vessels will be
extended eastward and the inference is
given that they may touch at some
Turkish port.
