AMERICA To
SAVE THE DAY
At ALGEC|RAS
Mixed Police Proposition
Sure 10 Win.
GERMANS AND FRENCH BOTH
TAKE ROSY VIEW OF THINGS
Believe Only Minor Hitches in De-
tails Will Delay the Final Inter-
national Agreement.

Algeciras, Mar. 25.-Both the Ger
man and French delegates to the
conference on Moroccan reforms to-
day assured the Associated Press that
the outlook for an agreement was en-
inently hopeful. but neither would
make more definite statement.
The representatives of the neutral
powers, however, asserted that the
principal work of the conference had
been virtually concluded and that a
settlement was imminent, but said
there might possibly be minor bitches
in connection with the details owing
to the necessity to minutely lay down
the terms in order to avoid future
controversy, thus postponing the oper-
alton of signing the protocol another
fortnight
The delegate of a prominent neu-
tral power in outlining the proceed
ure for the tomorrow's sitting Of the
conference, said that an agreement
had been practically attained before
hand and that the American propu-
sition relative to a mixed police force
was destined to serve as the final ar
rangement, 1t being introduced by the
Russians in the form of another
amendment to the Russian scheme.
The ports to which it would be ap-
piled, he said, had not been fixed but
he believed they would be Casa Blan-
ca and Tangier. Mr. White. the head
of the American delegation, he said.
from the first did not intend to pre-
sent the American proposal to the
conference, his desire being to provide
a feasible exit from the deadlock, but,
having pointed to the way out of this.
Mr. White left 1t to the delegates TO
utilize or disregard the American
scheme according to the necessities OF
the case. The extent of the powers
of the inspectors. he said. was the
only point likely to create friction.
but he hoped this matter could be ar
ranged. Control of the customs by
France and the division of the capital
of the state bank also remain to be
settled but in the event that the other
points are satisfactorily arranged he
thought an accord was inevitable.

Appendicitis All a Dream.

Omaha, Neb., Mar. 25.-Not one
patient in ten who is operated on for
appendicitis is a sufferer from the dis
ease, said DR.. Alfred Shipman, a lead

craze" he asserted, was in full swing
among the people, as well as among
army doctors and many good physl-
clans were inclined to regard any pain
or ache situated below the diaphragm
as due to full-nedged case of appen-
dicitis, requiring an immediate oper-
alton.
DIR. Shipman blames the leading
men in the profession, who refuse TO
raise their voices against an abuse
which they know exists, and the in
sstence of patients themselves for the
frequency of these unnecessary oper.

Operators and Miners viii
Decide t Today.
AFTER FIVE DAYS DEADLOCK
BOTH SIDES ARE OBSTINATE
Robbins Says Western Pennsylvania
Men Will Break Away and Pay
What They Please.

indianapolis, Ind, Mar. 25.-The BIZ
luminous coal operators and miners
of the central competitive and south-
western districts will make a final ef-
fort tomorrow to come to a decision
as to whether a wage scale to go inSo
effect April / can be agreed upon. Tho
joint scale committees of the joint
conferences of the two districts will
resume their sessions tomorrow after
a deadlock lasting iyc days during
which there has been no indication Of
a weakening of either side.
The miners demand an advance in
wages of 5.55 per cent which is the
restoration of the wage scale of 1908.
f. L. Robbins, speaking for the optr-
ators of the western Pennsylvania
district has offered to pay this adj
vance and has threatened to the ops
orators of Ohio, Illinois and Indiana.
who are standing firmly against the
payment of any advance, that unless
they recede from their position he

aereement and run his mines IN the
advanced scale. Whether the miners
will agree to sign by districts and al
low the mines of western Pennsylva-
MIA to run while those of Illinois, In
diana and Ohio stand idle. is a quas-
tion that has not been openly settled.
President Mitchell and other leaders
of the miners refuse to make any
statement ON this subject or even TO
indicate what their position Will DC,
should the situation demand a spe-
cific declaration.
1t is undecided whether the miners
in convention would ratlfy any suc1
agreement even If made by the ma
tional officers.
The situation here has not cnange I

journed over Sunday. Many Of the
operators spent Sunday at their homes

hull and today lies fast on the beach,
where she was put to prevent sinking.
The fire in the midship hold is burn
ing fiercely Tile Titan is Is no Sc
rous danger OF the beach, but Il Is
probable before the fire can be ex-
tingulshed the hold will have to be
flooded. II Is believed that the great
er portion of the cargo has either
been burned or ruined by water.
The Titan sailed from New York
March 16 for Manchester. Early yes
terday she was reported afire off Sa-
Bile island endeavoring to make this
port. The report created alarm for
the cafety OF the crew. as It was fear

have escaped death and is now
thought to be in hiding from the Pula-
