Raisuli's Exploits.

The latest exploit of Raisuli in captur- ing Cald, General Sir Harry MacLean brings the noted bandit to public atten- ton after d period of comparative retire ment MacLean is probably the most n- fiuential man in Morocco, being the Eng fish adviser who organized the Sultan army and civil administration and who stands next to the Sultan himself in the practical conduct of Moroccan affairs. His capture therefore is even more of an achievement for Raisuli than his former captures of Perdicaris and Harris, the lat ter the London Times correspondent. Morocco advces are often misleading. ow- ing to the inaccessibllity of the mountain marauders and the magnfied reports or their operations; but if Raisulfs capture of MacLean proves correct, the bandit has an unusually rich prize with which to negotiate with the Sultan and possibly with England. to whom Macbean stiil holds allegiance. and with France and Spain. who are jointly charged with tho international policing Of Morocco

STREET CAR SMASH AT, 40 MILES AN HOUR
One Killed and Thirty-three
 Seriously Injured
GAR HITS TWO FLAT CARS
100 Passengers, Mostly Government Employes, Aboard When the Late Car Passes the Sig.
 nas.

Washington, July 3-Traveling about forty miles an hour trolley car on the single track of the Washington. Airing ton and Falls Church railway early to- day crashed into two flat cars loaded with ste rails and one passenger was killed and thirty-three injured many of them seriously, and one probably fatally. About 100 persons. mostly government em- ples, were on the car at the time of the head-on collision.
 At the Georgetown hospital, where most of the injured were taken, 1t was said tonight that little hope is entertained for the recovery of William Mock, motorman on the passenger car. G. T. Warning. a passenger of Baltino, Va, died in the hospital.
 The accident was caused by mistake in signals. It occurred near Alexandria, Va, court house, thre and one-half miles from Washington.
 The wrecked car was about forty minutes lates having ben delayed at Ashe- dale citation. It followed special car. also bound for Washington. and when this latter car passed the switch near the court house the work train, which was stationed there, pulled out on the main track and started up grade towards Falls Church. If the mtorman of the special car signalled that a passenger car was following the crew of the work train failed to understand it. The regular passenger car was coming down grade toward the switch at about forty-fve miles an hour, endeavoring to make up lost time. Motor man Mock, it is said, made desperate effort to stop his car but the brakes had no effect on the grade and the car crashed into the train of rails while under full speed.
 Several passengers in addition to those named received slight cuts and bruises and their injuries were dressed at the hospital at Fort Meyer. Va.

 Goes to Raisui.
 For some time past General MaeLean, acting in behalf of the Sultan, had been trying to persuade Ralsui to resume a peaceful mode of life, and the bandit leader apparently had shown signs of willingness to meet the wishes of tho Moroccan authorities, with the result that General MacLean was entrusted with tho task of taking some presents from tho Sultan to Raisul in the hope of finally persuading him to come to terms These gifts consisted of horses aud tents, and to escort them to his stronghold Raisui sent fifteen of his bandits to the general to act as a hodyguard. Accompanied by these men, General MacLean journeyed | toward Rouana where he was to meet l Raisuli. But on arriving there the geR eral was informed that he was prisoaes Later Raisuli sent. a messenger to th} Sultan, announcing the capture ann set- | ting forth the terms of his demands. | General MaeLean is former officer 9i | the British army and is descended from an old Scotch family.

Later, when their number had increased to about 300, they threw aside all re- straint and proceeded to the War Path, where they invaded places of amusement re using to pay admittance fees, or to leave when ordered out of the Temple of Mirth, the Beauty Show and Streets of Cairo which were the principal sui ferers. At the latter place about fifteen Powhattan Guards attempted to restore or Ter and the trouble followed. The guards were forced to use their sabres to beat the men back. Captain Carpenter and Adjutant Garwood were soon on the scene and succeeded in ejecting the men from the Streets ol Cairo The soldiers soon returned with their numbers aug mented to 800. They again attempted to take charge of the shows and by order of Captain Carpenter, C. C. Vaughn of Co. H (Kentucl.y). and J. Tompkins of O.

 Plans Kidnapping.
 "The next time I saw Orchard was six weeks after I arrived in Wallace. He met me at the bank and said he had come up to see some of hi sold friends. Two or three days later he came to my office and began to talk about Joking for some easy money. He said he thought he might get some by stealing some of Paulson's chill dren. don't know that I made any re- ply to him at all, for l did not think he could be in earnest. Some days later Orchard came in again. He said he had been up to Paulson's house to dinner and had planned what he considered a good chance of Kidnapping one of the children, and wanted to know if he could have the money left with me. l said to him:
 " Orchard, you're fool and l would be a bigger fool to go with you in any such crime. If you try to do anything like that around here, I'll denounce you. "He said oh, you needn't get so excit- ed about it. and went out. l thought at first he was serious, but the way he laughed and told me not to get excited made me think that perhaps he was not after all serious"
 Did you ever suggest to Orchard in DeHNeT or any where else lHe klundplH5 Is of one of the Paulson children or any other chld?' asked MT. Darrow.
 NO, sir, I did not. There could not be anything more repulsve to me than that. You have a famly?"
 "Yes, sir; I have young daughter Coates said he saw Orchard several times before the man left Wallace in the fall of 1905. Orchard told him that the more he saw of his old friends and part ners the more bitter he became over having had to leave the district He said he would "get even with Steunenberg." ''I told him that the old feeling against him had about died out" said the wit ness. "snd he ought not to talk about it. There were plenty of other opportun- fties in the Couer D'Alene'
 The witness next told of Orchard hav- ing borrowed 300 from Paulson before leaving Wallace.
