ATTEMPT TO CREMATE NINE
Men Detected In Act of Firing House
Occupied by south Dakota
sheriff.

MINOT. n. D.. Feb. 6.-The village of
Portal is greatly excited over what appears
to have been a deliberate attempt to burn
a home and cremate its nine inmates.
The scene was at the home OF Lee Olson.
foreman of the 500 roundhouse Sheriff
John Lee OF Ward county also lives there,
and the plot. it is thought. was against
him.
Olson was awakened at l o'clock this
morning by the sound OF someone boring
beneath his bedroom window. Jumping from
bed he saw three men outside. who started
to run away when they saw Olson. The
latter awakened Sheriff Lee, and the two
started in pursuit. After a running fight
one man, who gave his name as Howard
Smith. was captured. Another man was
shot by Olson. but escaped. lie was found
later at a hotel on the Canadian side. 1t
proved TO be william Coyne, and the Can
adian authorities turned him over to the
American officers. Both men were brought
to Mnot. Coynes condition is critical
On examination 1t was discovered that the
men had bored hole through the side of
the house. Besides this there was a large
can of gasoline. IT is thought by both the
sheriff and Olson that the men intended to
pour the gasoline into the hole and then set
fire to the house in the hope of crematins
the sheriff. who last week caused the ar
rest of eleven Portal gamblers.
Many threats OF ynching have been made.

Force.

ALGECIRAS, Spain. Feb. 6.--The discus
sion going on between the German and
French delegates to the Moroccan confer
ence begins to disclose their respective po-
sitions and how far each side is willing to
yield on the main Franco-German question.
When France indicated desire to control
Morocco's police Germany objected on the
grounds that IL would permit of France TO
obtain complete political mastery of the
country. France has now sought to meet
this objection by suggesting certain guaran-
tees limiting the scope Of the police in such
a manner as to guard against their use as
an instrument for France laying hands on
the Moroccan empire.
There is reason to believe that the foreign
capitals have been advised of these guaran-
tees and that some countries, but not ALL
have responded favorably. However, Ger
many doubts the sincerity of Algiers and
.eoBtinues~l1o iesist-- trenesi srsDireir Of 'tne
police as contrary to the policy OF the open
door. the German conception of the open
door being that II should be a safeguard
against exclusive political as we'll as com
