WARSHIPS FOR MOROCCO.
Will Be Sent There Unless Captives
Are Released.

Washington, May ga very brief
cablegram came to the state depart
ment Sunday from Consul Gummere
at Tangler, Morocco, which confirmed
the press reports that Ion Perdicaris,
the American citizen, who, with his
stepson, Cromwell Marley, a British
subject. was kidnapped by bandits,
were being we'll treated by the Moor
ish brigands, by whom they were kid
mapped. The authorities, according to
the dispatch, are in communication
with the bandits regarding the two
men and it is expected that terms of
ransom are the subject of negotiations.
The consul general hopes to be able
to report these terms to the state de-
partment very soon.
Mr.. Gummere is moving actively in
the matter, his instructions being to
secure the release of Perdicaris as
soon as possible.
The administration will send war
vessels to Morocco for the moral eff
feet it may have upon the officials of
that country in the event the release
of Perdicaris is not brought about in
a short time.

LoRENZELLI WILL REMAIN.
PapaI Nuncio at Paris Will Not Leave
~ (, His Post.

HIS POST.
Paris, May 23.-The recall of M.
Nisard, French ambassador to the
vatican, continues to be the absorbing
topic. The ambassador is expected to
arrive here Monday, when he will con-
fer with Foreign Minister Delcasse and
go over the details of the rupture be-
tween France and the vatican, pre-
llmlnary to the meeting of the council
OF ministers on Tuesday, when a fur
ther line Of action will be determined
upon.
Contrary to general expectations,
Monsignor Lorenzelli, the papal nun
clio at Paris, will not leave his post.
The nunciature has given out the fol.
lowing statement:
"Up to the present the nuncio has
received no orders to take his leave,
although the state of his health might
make it desirable. As Rome has no
taste for replying to provocations but
is sorely conscious of her rights and
duties, Monsignor Lorenzelli does not
regard the eventuality Of his leave as
proximate."
The tone of the Socialist papers in
dictate that that powerful element has
urged the government to take more ex-
IRENE measures.
The more moderate elements ap-
pear to be satisfied with the course of
the government, while the reactionary
clerical papers express regret.
Little is heard directly of the senti-
ments of the clergy. who are practical
ly muzzled by their official positions
under the %concordat.

SEARCH FOR MONEY
Which Caused Senator Bio
gins Considerable trouble

Last week Friday J. H. Cox, of Ken
nedy. came into town on a visit. He had
with him in the neighborheod of sloo.
After mingling with several friends he
became imbued with the idea that 1t
would be good policy 10 deposit his
money for safe keeping.
He did so. but the next morning he
was not sure where he placed his money
However, he knew that Senator Bgglns
was g cd fellow, and he at once be
came imp essed with the idea that he
had left his money with him.
He accordingly went to Mr.. higgins
Monday morning and demanded his mon
ey and attempted to explain what took
place at the time of his making the de-
posit.
Mr.. higgins denied having received the
money and was Furthermore greatly put
out by Cox's rceable statement.
The matter worried the senator, and
he put in yesterday going about town,
business houses and saloons in town. be-
lieving that Mr.. Cox had placed his
m ney somewhere. but had forgotten all
about the transaction.
After giving the town thorough GO
ing over Mr.. Biggins was about to give
up In despair, when a gentleman inform
ed him that he had seen Cox give Mr.
Giroux, proprietor of the Winnemucca
hotel some money to put away.
A call at the hotel resulted In finding
the lost coin. Cox had deposited s35c
with Mr. Giroux Saturday evening, bur
1t had slipped his memory.
1t Is needless to state that everyone to
the transaction was exceedingly happy.
Mr.. Cox apologized to Mr. higgins most
profoundly, and hereafter when he comes
to town he will be a little more careful
as to what he es with his money.
