NO AGREEMENT AE--ALGECIRAS.
Conference POstpOnes Meeting Inth Sa'"r'
day in Hope Of Reaching One.

Special Gable Dispatches 10 THE SUN
ALdEoIRAs, March 1.-THE next meeting
Of the Moroccan conference has been post
poned until Saturday. This has caused
general uncertainty, in which hopes ana
fears alternate. Optimism was mostly
prevalent until to-day, when anxiety re-
CURED, ending in some quarters in down
right pessimism,
This can be traced to persistent rumors
that France and Germany alike are resolved
not to recede an iota from their declared
position, with 4 consequent deadlock. The
secrecy of the members Of the drafting
committee, which reconsidered the police
question to-day, is interpreted unfavorably.
LONDON, March 15.-The Algeciras corre-
spondent OF the Daily Mail after sending a
pessimistio despatch last evening sent a
later message representing that an imme-
diate rupture of the conference is possible.
On the other hand, the correspondents OF
the Standard and Telegraph predict a solu-
ton despite the present impasse.

Shortly after midnight Arthur entered
the room. He wanted one Of the papers
on the trunk and as he reached for 1t he
knocked the revolver to the floor. The
revolver exploded and the bullet tore its
way through springs, mattress and bod
clothes until it lodged in Lieut.. Burnape's
left side, near the heart.

HOLDUP AT ROCKEFELLER'S.

~TARRYTowN, N. Y, March H.-Petro
Albani, a deputy sheriff on John ID. Rookie
~feller's place at Pocantioo Hills, was held
up there by two men on Saturday and
nearly killed. His assailants attacked
him with clubs and knives. His friend,
Antonio Malano, came to his rescue in time
to save his life. Albani was brought to
his home In North Tarrytown.
Early this morning Malano was held up
by three members Of the same gang in
Beekman avenue while on his way to work
on the Rockefeller place. Malano had a
revolver and he fired three shots at his
~assailants, but did not hit them, They
closed in IN him and slashed his face and
body in several places, The pistol shots
aroused some neighbors AMI Malano's
assailants fed.
The police say that there are at least
twenty members OF the Black Hand society
in town. On Saturday a murderer from
Haokensack fed to North Tarrytown and
hid himself on the Rockefeller place. Later
he escaped from the detectives sent here
to catch him. Mr.. Rockefeller employs
over 100 Italians and it is thought that
the Black Hand society Is trying to force
them to pay money Under penalty Of death.
The cause OF the trouble this morning, it
is said, was Malano's refusal Of a demand
for a big sum Of money, The police have
arrested n man, and Malano, who is now
in the hospital, has identified him.

There was a meeting OF the New York
Life's board of trustees yesterday. The
board decided to oppose the recommended
ton Of the Armstrong committee which
provides for the expiration OF the terms of
all mutual company trustees on November
10 next. The New York Life Is the first
company TO announce it's opposition to this
recommendation, but 1t is understood that
the Mutual Life, represented by Henry w.
Taft, also will oppose the measure at to-
days hearing in Albany,
The board in its resolution opposing this
recommendation of the Armstrong COM
mittee bases its opposition on the ground
that such a course is dangerous to the best
interests Of the policyholders. that the
vast interests at stake ought not to be sub
jected to the hazard of a single election,
especially in a time Of great public excite
ment, and that the proposed legislation is
an unnecessarily radical departure from
the provisions OF the charter of the COM
pany, General Solicitor Mcintosh was
instructed to attend the hearing in Albany
to-day.
Very few Of the insurance officers will
attend to-day's hearing. The companies
will be represented by their lawyers. Samuel
Untermyer will attend in behalf Of the new
international p~olicyholders' committee. He
will urge the committee not only to Stand
by its recommendation to legislate all the
present trustees out of Office, but he will
ask them 10 set the annual election ahead
severa months, 80 as not to allow the pres
ent arrangements an opportunity to fortify
themselves against outside attacks.
Louis Fitzgerald, the Equitable's former
financial manager, who was missing when
the Armstrong committee wanted him,
has returned to town. He refused yesterday
to see anybody. 1t was said at his home,
523 Lexington avenue, that he was tired
outfrom his trip and was not in the best Of
health. 1t is not known where he has been.

Car as He Hurried TO the Station House.
When Sergeant Connors was turning out
the night squad at the East Sixty-seventh
street police station at 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon there was no response to the
name OF Patrolman Patrick Nugent. The
sergeant called out the name four times.
He was surprised, because never before
had Nugent been late at rolloall.
This Is tough, but there Is no other way
out Of it. rlhaveto prefer charges against
Nugent for the first time, said Connors to
the other COPS who were drawn up in line
on the station house floor.
Just at this moment a small boy stuck
his head in the door and yelled:

on the oornerl'
Commons turned out the squad in a jify
and at the corner OF Lexington avenue
they found Nugent pinned under a surface
car. In getting of a s~outhbound car he
had run in front Of one going in the oppo-
site direction. The motorman Of the car
didn't see him until 1t was too late and
Nugent was dragged ten feet.
1t took the combined efforts OF the entire
platoon to raise the car so that the police
mar could be dragged out. Nugent vas
carried into the station house unconscious
and an ambulance was summoned from
the Presbyterian Hospital. One Of the
policemen ran to st. Vincent Ferrer's Roman
Catholic Church and got the Rev, Father
Thuerte, who administered the last rites
to the injured man before he was taken
to the hospital.
Nugent was badly injured and the doctors
at the hospital last night Raid he had little
chance for recovery, They thought his
skull was fractured and he had a crushed
left hand, deep scalp wounds and severe
contusions about the body.
Nugent has been on the force for many
years and has a clean record. He lives with
his family at s4l East Eightieth street.

END OF THE SILVER DOLLAR BAR.
Saloon which Smith Made Famous to Make
Way for o warehouse.

The old saloon Of Silver Dollar. Smith,
which he made famous when he paved
the foor with silver dollars to excite the
wonder of the wealthy and the envy OF
the poor who patronised his bar, is shortly
to disappear. 1t was sold yesterday by
it's owner, Alfred s. Engel, son of Martin
Engel, to Roth d Berkowitz Of 400 Grand
street. They are going to tear 1t down
and erect on the spot a furniture ware
house.
Business in the place has not been good
since the death OF Silver Dollar Smith.
Although it is opposite the Essex Market
police court trade had drifted away, for
there were no longer the silver dollars
and the five dollar gold pieces for the
thirsty to walk upon.
In the palmy days of Smith the saloon
was the haunt Of East Side politicians and
one Of the snow places OF the city. 1t was
reported that the wealth sunk in the floor
amounted to 1900. There was a five
dollar gold piece in the centre Of each
square Of marble pavement on the hoor
and a silver dollar In each ome Smith
kept a close watch on the dollars as long as
he lived and nobody ever got away with
one.
After Smith died his widow needed the
money and took the dollars from the floor
and the glory from the place. The money
had been worn on one side by countless
feet and was no good for currency. Mira.
Smith took il to the mint and disposed OF it,
according to one report, for half the amount
IL represented before it went to pave the
floor, She ran the place a year n then
gave II up. John H. Martin has been run
ming 1t for the last five years.

the Speaker was lending a willing ear to

not alone because they do not favor
retroactive legislation of such an extraordi-
nary character as the Hearst recount bill
but because they believe II politics is to

faction of a large chemical company that
his solution of the problem is of great prac-
tical value, and the company will soon pro-
tect the discovery by patents and be able
to distribute pure milk in powdered form,
needing only the addition Of water to re-
turn it to its natural form. The professor
is very enthusiastic over his discovery and
says it will eventually reduce the price of
milk.

PouoHKEEPsIE, March 1.-THE Court Of
Appeals has afr rmed the decision OF Sur
rogate Hoysradt of Duchess county that
John F. Halstead Of Brooklyn is not re-
sponsible for Si40, 900 taken from the Buck
ingham estate by his cotrustee, the late
Robert +. Wilkinson. The Buckingham
heirs sought TO hold Mr., Halstead jointly
responsible with the Wilkinson estate when
the shortage was discovered upon Mr..
Wilkinson's death over a year ago.
The decision Of Judge Hoysradt rel lev
ing Mr.. Hslstead OF responsibility was car
ried to the Appellate Division, which de-
cided in favor Of Mr.. H a'stead by a divided
court, 8 to 2. Judge Parker argued the
case for the defendant and respondent in
the Court Of Appeals, which adopted his
view. This ends the case.
Mr.. Wilkinson died without leaving any
property except a life insurance, which
goes to his family. The Buckingham heirs
will therefore not be able to recover any OF
the lares sum lost at his hands.

the nomination Of the Republican party for
a third term. While this would probably
be disputed II it was reported in Washington
or in other portions OF the East, in my own

is the intention of the President.
@In spite of the fact that when his nomi-
nation in 1904 was an ass ured fact, he made
the statement that under no conditions
would he again be a candidate. L believe
that Roose welt has intended all along TO
