Notwithstanding all his assertions to
the effect that his only reason for
stopping off in Caldwell was to satisfy
a natural curiosity concerning Or
chard's identity, Sullivan is still sus-
pected of having been retained to eth
er conduct or assist in the defense Of
the suspected man. Some at least of
the officers confidently expect his re-
appearance upon the scene.
The suspect arrested at Council was
released today, there not being suffi-
cient evidence against him to warrant
the officers in holding him longer.
So far as the officers could discover
the man was without money when he
was released, but tonight he seems to
be well supplied.

France Expects the Other Great
Powers Will Accede to Her
Wishes.
GERMANY STANDS ALONE
HARMONIOUS ACTION EXPECTED
AT ALGIERCAS.

Paris, Jan. Public uneasiness over
the Moroccan conference has undergone
a distinct Improvement. This is due
mainly to the confident attitude of the
officials of the foreign office, who con-
slider the selection by the Italian gov
eminent of Marquis Viscounti VenOsta
to head its delegation, as strengthen
ing the position of France. 1t is evil
dent that the officials hold the view
that if France can secure the support
of the great powers having tangible
interests in the Mediterranean and Mo
rocco it will be difficult for Germany
TO stand against the force of this moral
influence. Therefore Italy's choice of
the Marquis Viscounti VenOsta, who
was one of the earliest advocates of the
Franco-Italian entente, strengthens the
governments expectation of the united
support of the leading Mediterranean
powers.

Track LAYING Continued.

After this had been done the situa-
ton was further complicated by the
American Dredging company, which
has. a contract with the gederal gov
eminent to dredge Oakland creek
channel. taking up the work of laying
track under guard where the West
ern Pacific was forced TO leave off A
large number of men were put to work
today. All outsiders were excluded
from the ground. No injunction had
been obtained against the American
Dredging company. AS it has a gov
eminent contract, it is thought that
it can only be enjoined by the federal
court. 1t is generally believed that
the American Dredging company is
working in the interest of the Western
Pacific. The dredging company took
the dredging contract from the gov
eminent at te lowest rate at which
the government has ever had dredging
work done in the harbor, ten and one
half cents cubic yard.

War Talk Fading.

The martial tone of the press has
considerably diminished and the sensa-
tional branch of it no longer prints
alarmist reports of the frontier prep
arations. Nevertheless, the public and
the press continue, though with greater
calmness, to talk of the imperative
need of completing military prepara
tions.
Now that the French delegates are
preparing to start for Algiercas there is
evidences of the greatest firmness in
UNFOLDING the French position the es-
sential feature of which is that France
through her geographical proximity to
Morocco, which is analogous to that
of the position of the United States to-
ward Cuba, and through her vast Al
gieran borders, is justly entitled TO
have a special and privileged position
in Morocco.
Not Conceded by Germany.
Germany, while yielding much. has
never clearly yielded the claim of
France to a special position in Morocco.
This is the vital issue and the minor
questions regarding police, customs,
finance and contraband can be adjust
ed once it is definitely settled whether
France has or has not a special posi-
ton in Morocco
If the French position is upheld, the
conference, it is expected, Will charge
France with the police, customs and
other duties. Against this Germany
will seek to secure international con-
troll of the police the customs and 9TH
er matters, thus giving all nations. in
Guiding Germany, the same status in
Morocco as that of France
The French delegates Will start with
out the slightest thought of yielding in
the essential points of Frances priv
LEGGED position, and therein lies the
danger of the FrancO-German outlook.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR NOTES

Home Missions in Our cities.-Luke
19:41-4S

Since Christ wept over Jerusalem,
must He not be grieving over our
modern cities?
Our cities think they know what
contributes to their peace and pros
perity, but often choose what causes
turmoil and disaster.
The thieves that make dens of our
cities are not always thieves of
money; often they are thieves of hon
or and purity, of health and happi-
ness.
THE people" are always very at
tentive" to Christ or to whoever
carries the true Christian message.
Cities have been called the failures
of our Christian civilization. They
are failures only so far as they are
not Christian.
Mission rooms are generally small
but they are the greatest rooms in
the greatest cities.

The modern, rOmaatlc. high-spout-
ing. raptlrous emotion portrayed in
story books is about the poorest imita-
tion of love there Is. but people match
their symptoms TO those in these SEN
tlmental Glmanacs. and then wonder
afterward what has become of the
dazzling fireworks they experienced
before marriage. foolishly growl be-
cause thrills and raptures are known no
more after five years of matrmony.
True love is a matter of soul friend
ship rather than mutual physical ad-
mlration It is founded on solid inner
congeniality rather than a kindred
taste for certain sports or tastes in art
and old china. True love depends not
on the roses in Amelia's cheeks, nor
the style of Algernon's overcoat; yet
many of our modern marriages are sew
cred because Algernon feels cheated
because Amelia's beauty has faded, or
Amelia is mad because Algernon no
longer bows and scrapes whenever she
enters the room. True love depSads
not for its life either on looks or
manners, but steadfastly loves on
through all the eXigencies sure to crop
up where two people marry keep house
and rear children. Life is not On easy
proposition, as we all know. and mar
rled life has all the everyday difficult
ties multiplied by two; but true love
makes it all worth while, ana is the
only thing Gu earth that can really
tighten the load and make the way
straight. Philadelphia Telegraph.
