The Rat.

No place is sacred to the rat. From
a sleeping man to an elephant there ia
nothing which he will not eat. Rats
have eaten their way through a live
pig and bitten of The legs Of living
birds. Some years ago the keepers Of
the: London geological gardens could
not understand what made the ele-
plants SO restless, SO uneasy on their
feet. Investigation showed that, at
night the rats came out and gnawed
off the thick skin growing about. the
nails on the monsters feet. Apparent
%ly they, must have fancied the horn Of
the rhinoceros, too, for regularly the
keepers used to find fattened rats
where the rhinoceros had been lying.

Ready to Discipline China.

Washington,-The attitude of tho
Chinese toward foreigners and foreign
interests generally has become suffi-
ciently hostile to warrant Preparations
on the part of the various governments
for the suppression of another demon
stration such as that which occurred
in 1900. The Navy Department has in
tended to order the battleship Oregon
back to the United States, but in view
Of the threatening situation which has
developed, instructions have been ca
bled to leave this vessel in the Orient.
There is no change in thu purpose of
the President to increase the battle
ship squadron in Asiatic waters by two
vessels during the coming spring.

The Slaughter at Moscow.

Moscow.-It is impossible to ascer-
tain the total losses resulting from the
ten days revolt, as many of the dead
and wounded have not been reported
at the hospitals, and some of the bod
les were incinerated. A personal tour
of the hospitals shows that there were
54S killed and 1.065 wounded. One
hundred and seventy-four of the in
jured taken to hospitals have since
died. The troops lost nine killed, of
whom two were officers. and fifty-one
wounded. OF the police force zen were
killed and fifteen wounded.
Among the killed and wounded were
number of children, the returns gem
orally showing that innocent persons
suffered the heaviest. The final figures
II the casualties will approach 1900,
The original estimate made in these dis
patches.

Kentucky Decision Affirmed.

Washington.-The Supreme Court
has affirmed the decision of the Ken
tucly Court of Appeals in the case OF
James b. Howard versus the state of
Kentucky. Howard was tried three
times in the Circuit Court of Franklin
county, Kentucky, on the charge of
numbering Governor Goebel, and con-
victed each time. He is now under
sentence to life Imprisonment and
brought the case to this court. to Sc
cure review of the ruling OF the Ken

cision of the Circuit Court against al

MASSINC ARMIES
FOR POSSIBLE WAR BETWEEN
GERMANY AND FRANCE.
uvER MOROCCO SITUATION
Trouble Feared at Approaching Con-
ference-America Expects to Take
Leading Part in Settling Matters
Affecting Trade Interests.

Neutrality-suspicious. the American
ambassador to France nor the like
official at Berlin could treat of the situ-
alton which now exists between
France and Germany in any report
which could be published here without
involving him in trouble. But It is be-
lieved the explanation of this last Ger
man move is to be found in the fact
that last July, when the Morocco situa-
ton developed an acute phase, the
French general staff discovereG the en-
tire army, and especially the Transport
tation facilities, were not in a condi-
tion justifying France in adopting an
aggressive attitude. So the negotia-
tions suddenly assumed a mild tone
and have dragged along up to this
time. Meanwhile the general star
went to work with great assiduity to
correct the evils which had developed,
with the result that within the last ten
days it was discovered that in the
opinion of military experts the French
army is in better condition than at any
period in its history. The weakest
point last summer was discovered to
be in the mobilization, and this has
been strengthened SO that the vast
bodies of troops can be collected at
the frontier posts in an Incredibly
short period of time.
1t is believed here by officials who
have kept close watch on the situation
that the Germans have likewise been
quietly, and, as far as possible, increas-
ing the efficiency of its army. But
when the internal resources failed in
the matter of producing sufficient
number of railway cars, and it became
necessary for the German government
to go TO foreign countries for the
needed supply, it was patent that such
an order could not be concealed So to
make the best of the situation this
news of the placing of the vast order
for transportation material was boldly
announced from Berlin as an answer
to the French unofficial statement as
TO the preparedness of France for mill
tary action.
AS to the part the United States is
to play in the approaching Moroccan
conference, it may be stated on the
best of authority that Messrs. White
and Gummere, the American delegates,
will go into the conference absolutely
uncommitted to either the French or
the German contentious. The govern
ment's view is that America has, by
virtue of her ancient interest in Mo
rocco, rights even superior to those of
| any European state in deciding the
, critical questions which will come be-
fore the conference. The basis of this
statement is that America, single
handed, made war upon the Barbary
states, wiped out piracy in Mediter-
ranean waters and concluded the first
treaty of any civilized nation with
those states, n treaty which has
formed the basis of the demand Of
every other nation for favored nation
treatment at the hands of Morocco. So,
from considerations such as the per-
petuation of the open door and fair
trade for all in Morocco, the United
States government feels that it has
right and duty to participate in this
| important conference.

HAVE BEEN SUMMONED BEFORE

WHlskEY SELLING.

It would seem judging from what
|transpired this morning, that a Ger;
tain saloonist in the city WHO has in
fiuence and a great deal at that with
a power.thatbe, has made a clever
attempt to reduce competition in his
line insFafrmont
This man operates saloon and
hotel in town and there is incidental
ly alleged to be an accomplice in the
same line, and the nfst Is supposed to
have had enough influence with a GER
tain oficIal,to have had summoned be
fore the grand jury every bartender
in the city. In order TO make the af-
fair a little like legitimate he induced
the oaiclal to summon all in order to
get the few desired ones.
An attache Of the prosecuting attor,
ney's office visited every saloon in the
city yesterday afternoon and made a
good fellow Of himself and incidentally
took the name of every man in

to know claim that che whole thing
is a scheme
They say that certain hotel pro
prietor is Just about down to his last
cent and that while he is supposed to
have no gambling in his place that he
is very negligent in, the matter Of
closing his bar on Sundays and after
hours.
It is hinted that he is after but three
places in town. These are the ones
that have been getting some trade
that he desired, and he takes this
means Of getting them out Of the way
in order that he may have the field
practically to himself. His confeder.
ate is known to be in better financial
circumstances, SO he is not taking
such an active part in the proceed.
