ALGECIRAS CONFERENCE ON MO.
ROCCO REACHES AN AGREE.
MENT ON ALL POINTS,.

Algeciras, Spain, March 91.-The
committee of the conference on Moroc.
can reforms reached an agreement on
all points. This agreement was sane.
toned at the plenary session Of the
conference in the afternoon.
The complete accord resulted from
a long conference held between M.
Revolt, head of the French mission,
and Count Won Tattenbach of the Ger,
man mission. The division and the
policing of the ports of Morocco was
arranged as follows:
Spain policies Teutana and La
Raiche, a Franco-Spanish mixed DO
lice will be established at Casa Blanca
and Tangier and a French police force
alone will have charge of Mogoboor,
Saff, Mazagan and Rabat.
This gives France four Atlantic
ports. The duration of this police
agreement vas fixed at five years.
The settlement Of the question Of
the State bank of Morocco gives
France three shares, including those
of the French syndicate. The other
nations have one share. Four bank
supervisors will be appointed by the
Bank of England, the Bank Of France,
the Imperial bank Of Germany and

LIVED ON PUTRID HORSE MEAT.
French Miners Existed in Shaft for
Twenty Days.

Lens, France, March 31.-The disas-
ter at the Courrieres coal mines had
a startling sequel during the day when
thirteen miners were taken out alive
after having endured twenty days OF
entombment. The story Of the sur
vivors discloses that they lived for
many days on putrid horse meat amid
total darkness and in the stencil from
scores of decaying corpses. The pres
ence of human flesh would speedily
have forced the starving met to resort
to the last desperate extremity if they
had not been rescued. The survivors
were sturdy young miners from seven
teen to twenty-five years of age except
their leader, Henri Nemy, who IS
thirty eight years old. All show the
terrible effects of their experiences,
being e%maciated, exhausted and nearly
blinded. Their rescue caused a tenn"
n0rary nervous lucidity during Whlch
they greeted their relatives n
graphically related their suTferlngs.
The doctors then enforced quiet upon
them, fearing the results OF fever ana
poisoning from their diet OF decayeu
horse flesh.
