Washington May 28.-Rear Admiral
Jewell reported by cable to the Navy
Department today the arrival of the
European squadron under his COM
mand, embracing the Olympia, Balti-
more and Cleveland, at Horta, Azores.
Orders were sent to the admiral today
to proceed to Tangier, Morocco and
his fleet sailed for that port.
The Navy Department is advised of
the sailing of the Atlanta. Marietta
and Castfne, ships of the South At
lantic squadron from Teneriff, for
Tangier to join the flagship Brooklyn.
The detention of the South Atlantic
squadron at the Moroccan port will be
dependent on conditions. If the sit
uation on the arrival of Rear Admiral
Jewell does not require the presence
of the two squadrons of American
warships for the protection of Ameri-
can interests in that quarter Rear Ad-
mIiral Chadwick will be authorized to
proceed toward his station in the
South Atlantic.

THEY MAY SELL TIE TOWN.
I.icrs of the Original Owner Threaten
to Dispose of Carlisle.
(By the Associated Press.)


Little Rock, Ark, May 2S.-A spe-
cial to the Gazette from Carlisle, Ark,
says:
Unless the courts intervene the en-
tire town of Carlisle and about 3,40O
acres of land surrounding the town,
will be sold at public sale on June y,
on an order granted by the Probate
court of Lonocks county to the heirs
of the original owner of the land. The
order was secured by the guardian or
the minor heirs of Frenchman nam
ed Comma, who years ago owned all
the land on which the town OF car
Isle now stands, as well as much OF
the surrounding country. The orig1-
nal owner sold most of the land years
ago, but in 1899 presumably to make
the title clear, he secured a patent
from the State for the whole tract. He
failed, it is said, to make new deeds
for the land, which he had sold, and
as result the heirs now claim the
property. Three of the grandchildren
of the original owner now reside III
Louisiana, claim an undivided SIX
teenth of the property and through
their guardian secured an ordef Tor
the sale of the whole tract.
The citizens of Carlisle held mass
meeting and decided to raise fund
to carry on fight against the claim
ants.

Terms That Will not be Accepted.
nv the Associated Press.)


Washington, May 28.-The kdnap-
pers of Perdicaris and his step-son
Marley in Morocco, have submitted
their terms for ransom and the State
Department has decided that they are
absolutely impossible of acceptance.
A long cablegram from United
States Consul Gummere was received
by Secretary Hay today. The consul
stated in substance that RaSouly, the
bandit who kidnapped PerdicariS and
his step-son Marley, had been heard
from and made a set of demands
which the British minister and Mr..
Gummere had deemed it their duty to
lay before their governments RaSouly
demanded that the Moorish forces
should be withdrawn from the district
i'm which his band operated, leaving
them in control He asked large
money ransom to be collected from
the governors of Tangier and Fee, who
happen to be bitter enemies. He fur
ther demanded absolute immunity for
himself and his followers from pur-
suit or punishment for the kidnap-
ping and other crimes which they had
committed in the past. TO cap the
climax of his demands Rasouly insist
ed that the United States and Great
Britain guarantee the observance OF
the Moorish government of the fore
going stipulations. Secretary Hay had
q conference with the President and
Il was agreed that Rasouly's terms
could not be met To grant them
would be equivalent to forcing the
Sultan of Morocco to abdicate in IA
vor of a brigand so far as a consider
able part of a Moorish territory was
concerned. Moreover the United States
government could not, without estab
fishing a new and dangerous precedent
undertake to guarantee the acts OF
another government

Gave His PeopIe No Hope.


His condition, after arriving there.
was such as to give no hope to the
family, although he appeared brighter
some days. 1t was realized that the
only hope of recovery Senator Quay
had was to restore some life and ac-
tivity to the stomach which absolutely
refused to perform its functions. Qu3y
himself told them all it was useless
he had run his course and was grad
ually slipping away. Ten days ago he
began the arrangement of his personal
affairs, looking toward the finality.
The last papers We're not signed I'm
til yesterday morning (Friday) but
the arrangements were all made. In
the meantime no relief came and the
sapping of the patients vitality con-
tinued. The only food he could take
was leben, a milk preparation su ch
as is used for babies, and he frequent
ly revolted against this.
Sunday last his condition became so
alarming that the family decided to
remove him to Beaver. For a day or
two there was Improvement and hope
again perVaded the stricken family,
but it was merely temporary.
Quay showed all the stoicism of on
Indian in his last illness. He held
out no hope of recovery, and refused
to believe it was possible. Coolly and
ltliiy Hc looh ledVe Oh MS dearest
things. Thursday last he asked to
be taken to his famous library, re-
marking to his attendants:
Il want to see my books once more
before / die
Through it all he maintained
bright active mind and his mental en-
ergies never tagged. He joked grimly
at times and was cheerful in his COM
ments, but seemed prepared to die.
The Last Rallies.
The relapse which alarmed the
family on Sunday last at Morganza,
required again on Thursday night and
alarm was so serious that the Pitts
burg specialists were called in at mid
night
Friday he rallied again and was
able to converse with ex-senator Don
aid Cameron for a time. Senator
QUAY had sent for Cameron, but never
told anybody what he wanted. That
same night the absent members of
the family were summoned and every
preparation for the end made.
Last night again his condition con-
tinued worse ard the end gradually
