FLYING VISIT TO rAaarEk
Emperor william Confines His visit to
German Legation.

Tansief, March a.-Emperor William
of Germany paid a flying visit to Tan
gier today, remaining barely two hours
on shore. The elaborate programme for
his reception and entertainment was
much changed, the emperor confinina
himself to a visit to the German lega-
tion, where he received deputations Of
Germans in Morocco. The changed
plans caused much comment and disap-
pointment. The emperor had been ex-
pected to land about o'clock, but this
was delayed three hours. Meanwhile
Count Won Tattenbach-Ashold return
ed to the Hamburg before the Emperor
landed.
1t was officially explained that the
reason for this procedure was the
roughness of the sea; but after the de-
parture of the Hamburg it was stated
on good authority that Emperor VIII
liam, having heard there was a possi-
Iibility of an anti-French demonstration
on the occasion Of his visit, desired to
avoid such an incident. Another report,
which, however, has not received off
cial confirmation, but is generally ae-
cepted, states that the German lega-
tion was informed that an anarchist
plot had been discovered, and advised
that the emperor be dissuaded from
landing. Count Won Tattenbach-Asl-
old, who was formerly German minis
ter to Morocco, visited the German lega-
tion and intervied the Moorish author
tiles, and afterwards notified his majes-
ty that every precaution had been TAX
en-, but advised that the programme be
confined to a visit to the legation
Notwithstanding the shortness Of his
majesty's stay in Tangier, the occasion
will certainly be marked as one Of the
most brilliant and picturesque In the
history Of this pretty seaport. The
Moors exhibited unwonted enthusiasm.
and throughout the two hours the en-
peror was on shore no untoward Incl
dent occurred. His majesty appeared
to thoroughly enjoy his visit.

PROSPECT FOR PEACE
SEEMS NOT SO BRIGHT
EXPLICIT STATEMENT By JAP
ANESE MINISTER TO FRANCE.

knows There Are No Peace NegOtia-
tions in Progress at the. Present
Time-Oyama Takes Up Vigorous
Advance Again with Wings Far Ex-
tended. s.r
Paris, March 31.-2 p. m.-Whatever
hopefulness of peace may have appear
ed some days ago, the situation has
now completely changed, and there is
every prospect that the war will drag
on again. Consequently, dispatches
appearing in America saying that For
eign Minister Delcass and DR.. Motono,
the Japanese minister to France, have
been comforting at the formers house
relative to peace, are inaccurate. The
foregoing view of the situation is TAX
en- by the parties Immediately concern
ed, and it is asserted with the authori-
ty of the foreign Office and the Japan
ese legation. Ill.,.
The Associated Press correspondent
has talked at length with DR.. Motono
during the last few days, and the situ-
alton heretofore set forth in these dis
patches reflected the view of DR.. Mo-
tono and others directly concerned, al
though with the usual reservation of
not using their names. However, in
view Of the continued reports that
there were indications that Minister
Delcasse and DR.. Morono were taking
an active part in the negotiations, the
correspondent Of the Associated Press
called at the Japanese legation to-day
and requested DIR. Motono to furnish a
statement which would put at rest all
misunderstanding Accordingly, the
minister gave the Associated Press the
following categorical statement which
was taken in writing:
Il tell you EXPLICITLY that there are
no peace negotiations, or preliminaries
for initiating peace negotiations, in
progress at this time, so far as I am
aware, and j believe my information
to be complete. / am not desirous of
discussion the general question Of
peace, for, owing to the complete abb
sence Of negotiations, or preliminaries
toward negotiations, that question can
only be academic, and without practical
I3.4f , / s + e
bearing.
1.-THE statement that / have conferred
with NJ. Delcasse at his residence are
false, and are calculated to confuse a
situation which is perfectly plain.
There is no representative of Japan
authorized at this time to discuss
peace, or foreshadoW in the slightest
what conditions the japanese govern
ment might consider, if the negotiations
assumed practical stage. On the con-
trary Japan is now engaged In conduct
ing military campaign, and she will
resoluteIy proceed with that important
work 4
The introduction Of the foregoing dis
patch, as well as the portion quoted,
was submitted to Dr. Motono, who ap-
proved every word. It was similarly
submitted to the foreign office, where it
was approved throughout. Il

WILL RESIST ExTRADITIoN.
j. Morgan smith and wife Not willing
to Return to New York.

to Return to New York.
Cincinnati. March s1.--That J. Nor
gan Smith and his wife would resist
extradition to New York state, where
they have been indicted for conspiracy
with Nan Patterson, Mrs. Smiths sis
ter. was made evident this afternoon.
Smiths attorneys, Shay & Cogan, Sc
cured two writs of habeas corpus from
Common Pleas Judge Smith, returnable
Monday, one writ for j. Morgan Smith
and the other for the wife, Julia Pat
terson smith. 1t is alleged in the writs
that the prisoners are held without
warrant, that no charge has been
placed against them, and that there Is
no authority in law for detention OF
either husband or wife: S
When arrested yesterday the couple
were held simply ION suspicion" but
to-day, when it was thought a writ OF
habeas corpus would be sought, Chief
of Detectives Crawford filed in police
court an affidavit charging Smith and
his wife with being fugitives from JUS
tice. During the afternoon Detective
Quinn, of New York, who arrested Nan
Patterson last May after the shooting
of Caesar Young, and who is well ac-
quainted with the Smiths, called at the
central police station and formally
identified the Smiths as the persons
named in the New York indictments.
Before securing the writs Attorney
Shay had called during the afternoon
at the police station and held long
conference with his clients, who met
each other for the first time since their
arrest.

CAPTURED in NEW YORK
RASTOW WANTED IN ALBANY
FOR ROBBERY.

Toils-Albany Citizen Tells How He
Was Deceived by Fastow-Identifies
Him Mt the Jail.
Samuel Fastow. who was arrested
recently in this city with William Go
ber on charges of counterfeiting by
Detective Frey is again in serious
trouble. The two men were released
by the government on the charge Of
eounterfeiting and they were then held
in $50 each by the local authorities
on charges of idleness Through At
torney Wolfe the men were released
from the jail last Thursday. Shortly
after their release Captain Cowles,
who knew that Fastow was wanted in
New York, knew that the men were
going directly to that city and he
therefore notified the authorities to
that effect. On the arrival of the men
in that city FastoW was Immediately
placed under arrest and was taken to
Albany where there were two war
rants against him.
Captain CoWles stated the facts last
night concerning the Albany charges
as he understood them as follows: The
day after the arrest of the men In this
city d man, whom the captain believed
gave the name Of Herbert Schenck
came into his office. The man said that
he resided in Albany and thought that
the man who had given the name of
Herbert Schienk came into his office.
The man said that he resided in Al
bany and thought that the man who
had given the name of Fastow in this
city was the same man who had rob-
bed him of over SLAB several months
ago Mr.. Sehienk said that last Mo-
evember he was acquainted with a
young man In Albany who used to call
at his house. One day last November
this young man brought Fastow to the
house and introduced him as his uncle
from New York. 1t was nearly dinner
time and Fastow smelling the cooking
said that he. was unfortunate in hav-
ing to partalxe of restaurant good in
stead Of the comforts of home. Schienk
then invited his guest to remain to
dinner.
After dinner Mr.. Fastow complained
of very severe headache and Mrs
Schienk suggested to her husband
that the guest be invited to rest for a
while in one of the upstairs rooms. Mr.
Schienk made the offer to Fastow who
accepted and the host then conducted
him to d room. after which he left
him.
Sometime after this Fastow came
down stairs again and said that his
head ached 50 much that he must 60
outdoors and get some fresh air. He
then bade his entertainers good by and
left.
Mrs. Schienk on going upstairs after
wards found that all the rooms on the
floor had been ransacked and every
thing being thrown hurriedly about.
