FOR THEIR
COUN

Algeciras Spain, Jan. 19.-This being the
Mohammedan Sunday there will be no
session OF the international conference on
Moroccan reforms, through Difference for
the Moroccan delegates.
A Moorish villa served temporarily as n
mosque where the Moors redoubled their
religious fervor in praying for the preser-
vation OF their country.
In the meantime the exchanges OF views
between the delegates OF the Powers
have brought an agreement not 10 con-
slider questions outside OF the pre-ar-
ranged Franco German program.
one result Of this is TO exclude the re-
ligious subjects which the Vatican Is
said to desire to introduce through Aus
tria However one OF the ambassadors
says that the Jewish question can come
up not as a religious issue but as an in
cident 10 the protection OF the subject OF
the Sultan.
Mohammed ~ Torres head OF the Mo-
roccan mission has informed the delegates
that the Sultan is prepared TO abolish the
harsh, laws requiring Jews TO PROSTATE
themselves before the mosques and other
humiliating practices but the delegates
doubt the wisdom OF their abolition as
Mohammed El Torres and the foreign
ministers residing I'm Morocco say that the
uon-performance OF this traditional obeis-
ance by the Jews would excite an anti
Jewish outbreak.
n Is expected that the American dele
gates will strongly favor an amelioration
Of the condition OF the eJws.

.M,.e Bessie MnsIey

To be such a successful wife, to re-
tain the love and admiration of her
husband, to inspire him to make the
most of himself, should be a woman's
constant study.
If a woman finds that her energies
are tagging, that she gets easily tired,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
she has backache, headaches, bearing
down pains, nervousness, Irregularities
or the blues, she should start at once
to build up her system by tonic with
specific powers, such as Lydia L. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
Following we publish by request a
letter from young wife:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
Ever since my child was born | have suf-
fered, rs hope few women ever have, with in
fammation, female weakness, bearing-down
pains, baciache and wretched headaches 1t
affected my stomach so | could not enjoy my
meals, and half my time was spent in bed
Lydia L. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made me well woman, and l feel so grateful
that am glad to write and tell you of my
marvellous recovery 1t brought me health,
new life and vitality Mrs Bessie Ainsley,
Gil South 10th Street, Tacoma, Wash
What Lydia f. Pinllham's Vegetable
Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will
do for every sick and ailing woman.
If you have symptoms you don't un-
derstand write to Mrs. Pinkham,
daughter-in-law of Lydia e Pinkham,
at Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free and
always helpful.

RAN INTO AN OPEN SWITCH.
An Express Train was Deliberately
Wrecked by Some Unknown
Miscreant.

Burlington, VT, Jan. 27.-The New
England Limited, an express train
bound from Boston for Montreal, was
wrecked last night at Bolton, 20 miles
southeast of this city, by running into
an open switch. Six cars left the rails
and were practically demolished, but
none of the passengers or trainmen
was seriously hurt. The accident oc-
Cured on the Central Vermont rail
way. The train was running about so
miles an hour when it left the main
line and struck three loaded freight
cars on a siding.
Investigation after the accident in
dicated that the train was wrecked
deliberately. The switch had been set
properly short time before the ex-
press was due at Bolton, but there are
evidences that some one tampered
with it afterward.

BUSINESS BULLETIN.
Little Change in the Situation Is Noted
by Dun's Review.

New York, Jan. Pr. c. Dun &
Co S Weekly Review of Trade says:
No change appears in the business
situation, weather favoring outdoor
work, but causing accumulation of
heavy weight wearing apparel. Re
ports from the northwest are favor
able, but most other sections have
found bargain sales necessary to re-
duce stocks of winter goods.
Products for fall are also ordered
freely, notably in the footwear indus
try, and shipments of boots and shoes
from Boston for the month thus far
eclipse all previous records, which is
especially significant when viewed in
the light of the rapid growth of the in
dustry in other sections. Iron and
steel plants have made steady pro-
gress and the manufacturing con
sumption of fuel is heavy.
Failures this week numbered 334 in
the United States, against 305 last
year, and 40 in Canada, compared with
43 a year ago.

Berlin has a system of child eX-

According to the Tageblatt, army
otlicers are not seen in the restau-
rants and theaters of Berlin nearly as
often as they used TO be ten years
ago, the main reason being that their
hours OF duty are treble what they
were IN 1890

NOT GUILTY OF LIBEL.
Verdict Rendered in the Suit Against
Editor Hapgood.

New York, Jan. 27.-An unusually
81 .sational trial came to an end Fri
G ~ when a jury in the supreme court
,eported that Norman Hapgood, editor
of Golfers Weekly, was not guilty of
criminal libel. The case had been on
trial several weeks. The verdict was
rendered ten minutes after the case
had been given to the jury. The charge
against Mr.. Hapgood was brought at
the instigation of Justice Joseph M.
Deuel. of the court of special sessions,
and was based upon an editorial in
which the editor criticized Justice
Deuel. for his connection with Town
Topics.
The real interest in the case was
due to the fact that the names of
scores of persons of the highest social
and financial standing became inyolv-
ed, through the efforts of the defense
to prove that the statements contain
ed in the alleged libel were correct
and therefore justified

A NEW WAGE SCALE.
1t Is Adopted by the Miners-John
Mitchell Is Reelected President.

Indianapolis, Jan. 24.-The conven-
tion of the United Mine Workers yes
terday adopted the report of the scale
committee with practically no changes.
The discussion of the proposition to
endorse the plans of the anthracite
miners caused a clash between Presi-
dent Mitchell and Vice President
Lewis. Considerable feeling was
shown. Mr.. Lewis said he thought a
full explanation of the anthracite stu
alton should be made by the president.
He said he knew nothing except what
he read in newspapers. President
Mitchell replied that he knew no law
requiring president to report TO
vice president, and added:
Il did not know till Monday of the
success of the movement to secure a
conference with the anthracite opera
tors and l do not know what demands
the anthracite miners committee will
make. The demands have not been
formulated"
1T was decided that when the joint
conference between the miners and
the operators meets Thursday the
first demand will be presented to the
operators for their rejection or ac-
Ceptance before any other demand is
made. This demand is that districts
13, II, 21, "a and 25 and all outlying
districts whose operators are willing
to participate shall be admitted to the
conference. These districts consist Of
the states of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri
and Michigan and the southwest.
The miners decided that all the
delegates will then be called togetho:
to consider further action.
The report Of the telers showed the
election of the following: President,
John Mitchell; vice president, T. l..
Lewis; secretary treasurer, w. b. VIII

Steamer Valencia Meets
with Disaster.
MANY LIVES LOST.
MGagre Reports Tell of a Frightfu
Disaster on the Coast of
Vancouver Island.

Victoria, B. c.. Jan. 24.-The steam
ser Valencia, which was en- route from
San Francisco with 81 passengers and
a crew of 60, went ashore at midnight
Monday night on the coast of Van
couver Island during a thick fog and
large number of persons were drowned
when attempting to leave the ship,
The steamer is on the rocks against
high cliff and is likely to go to pieces
at any time. One boats crew reached
Cape Beale, 120 miles from here, at
o'clock Tuesday afternoon and nine
men got ashore near the telegraph
hut, about 15 miles from the light
house.
Two men are prisoners on the face
of the cliff near which the steamer
went ashore and cannot get up the
cliff or return to the wreck. The sea
will probably reach them when the
tide is high. The men report terrible
scenes. One woman dropped her child
in the sea while trying to hand it to
her husband who was in one of the
boats.
When the boats crew left there was
a little boy running about the deck
crying fer his mother, who was among
the drowned. There are still about
125 persons on the wreck, with almost
certain death staring them in the face.
The Valencia is an iron screw
steamer of 1 ,59S tons capacity 252 feet
long 1t was built in 1883 by Cramp &c
Sons, of Philadelphia. During the war
with Spain the Valencia was engaged
for time in the transport service of
the United States, conveying troops to
and from the Philippines.
