'APPREHEND NO DIFFICULTY Moors Will Not h.
 terfere. STENSLAND AT CONSULATE Olson and Kelley Want To Bring
 Banker Back. State Department Hears From Amer ican Charge Who Says suitan
 Does Not Seek to Block
 His ExtraditiOn.

Washington. Sept. 5.-The Moorish authorities will interpose no objection to the removal to America of Paul O. Stensland, President of the Milwau- kee Avenue State Bank of Chicago A dispatch to this effect has been re- ceived at the State Department from Minister Gummere at Tangier dated today.
 The dispatch added that stensland Is prisoner In the American legation there
 Additional instructions were sent by the State Department today to MT. Gummere, American Minister to Mo- rocco, relating to the desired surren- der of Paul O. Stensland, President Of the Milwaukee Avenue State Bank or Chicago to Assistant States Attorney Olsen of Illinois. to apprehend the fu- gitiye banker in Tangier.
 The failure of the Department to hear yesterday from Mir. Gumnaere was due to the fact that the message sent him by the State Department was in cipher and MT. Gummere did not possess the key. He asked the De- partment to repeat in phraseology that he could understand, and this was done.
 A prompt reply is now expected. Until this arrives Mir. Scott, the Solic- itor for the Department, will be un- able to prepare the nuling asked for by MT. Adee as to the powers of the United States to secure Stensland and to recover the deposit of $12.000 made by stensland in the French bank at Tangier
 It is now said at the State Depart ment that there probably will be no difficulty in fetching Stensland away from Morocco on any merchant vessel providing the ship does not touch at a French port. There is no provision in the existing extradition treaty be- tween America and France for the surrender Of persons guilty of embez- clement, the technical offense charged against Stensland.
 If Stensland therefore got in the French Jurisdiction he might. through counsel, secure intervention by the authorities and 1t is suggested the French officials might feel obliged to move in the matter on its own account to escape liability for a civil suit for damages which might be brought on the ground of illegal Imprisonment on French territory. No such difficulty will be met If the fugitive were brought into Gibraltar or to a Span ish or Portuguese port because their extradition treaties would permit Of his surrender to American authorities.

KISSED MIR. HEPBURN
SENSATIONAL INCIDENTS AT MA TTONAL IRRIGATION CONGRESS.
Idaho Senator Attacks "POlicyv of Pres N ident. Saying that Administra- tion should be By Law Alone
 --Reeder Replied.

Boise, Idaho. Sept. 5.--Ihe so-cailed public land administration. in setting aside large areas in the West for for- est reserves ws.s the subject which preoipitated an acrimonious and at times sensational debate at last night's session of the Irrigation Congress.
 Clifford Pincnot. Chief Of the Bureau of Forestry. stated that the policy of President Roosevelt was to give every part of the public lands their very best use.
 These reserves to a certain extent control the stock business of the West, he said, for the chief summer range is in the reserves. The stock men could not be kept off entirely at the demand of the irrigationlsts. He said neither could the service let them have free run of the reserves.
 Senator Hepburn launched a bitter attack on the administrators forestry policg. The people were told what was the policy of the administration, he said, but the administration has no right. to have any policy. except as stated in the statutes. The adminis- tration told the people what we will give you" No one, he said. author ized the administration 10 give the people anything. The people were sov ereign. Policy" he said. belongs to monarchies and kingdoms and not to republics
 "Forestry." he said. "has been fost- cred as a policy to uphold the leisure Iy, lazy, dignity of monarchs."
 Senator Hepburn declared that tho Cassia reserve in Idaho vas created at the behest of speculatinG cattlemen.
 Congressman Reeder of Kansas in- terrupted to declare that the President of the United Statee set the reserve aside and he did so from pure pur- pose Senator Hepburn resented the in- terruption, whereupon MT. Reeder ex- pressed his belief that the Idaho Sena- tor was impugning the Presidents mo- tives. Please keep your ideas to your self, while I have the platform" re- torted MT Hepburn. The President needs no defense from me at your hands,"
 Senator Hepburn said he did not ques- tion the Presidents motives, but that the President had been mis ed by bad and not disinterested advisers. :"
 When Senator Hepburn asserted with much vehemence that MT. Pinchot's theory about forests subserving mois- ture was all nonsense, there were cries of NO. mo-" and in all parts of the houss there was hissing.
 Senator Hepburn shouted his defiance at the audience. Geese hiss away" he said. don't try that with me. I am too old to be scared by that process. will have a hearing"
 When Chairman Carter had restored order. MT. Hepburn attacked the Ma tional Forestry Association One of its vice-presidents. he said, was Weir hauser who owns more timber land than any man in the world-more tim Der than was originally stolen by any man in the world"

PROVES MOSQUITO THEORY.
All Quarantine Agninst New Iberia In
 Raised.

New Orleans. Sept. 5-All quaran- tine against New Iberia. La. where a case of yellow fever was found eighteen days ago. was raised tonight by order of the State Board of Health.
 In the raising of this quarantine without another case of yellow fever having developed. the mosquito theory of the transmission of this fever has scored another apparent victory. The principal precautlon taken against spread of the infection has been the burning of several hundred pounds of sulphur.
 By this method the mosquitos in ev- cry house in. New Iberia were killed. The head officials had difficulty in en- tering some houses for this purpose, several persons having made threats and declared that no sulphur should be burned in their homes. Dr. c. H. Irion. President of the Louisiana State Poard of Health. went to New Iberia at the first new sof yellow fever and has personally directed all the precau- tionary measures taken.
