Paris heard with much pleasure last
week that the delegates of three i'm

the peace terms offered by the French
commander at Casablanca. The agree
ment was that General Drude inspect
the pacified territory, that the tribes
dispense and maintain order and that
the perpetrators of the outrages Of

of these terms three hostages were
delivered to the French consulate.

revolution were followed by the re-

Generals PARA, Ducassi and Miret.
Pine Guerra, the leader of the revolu-
ton which overthrow the Palma ad-
ministration, condemns this conspir-
acy as being premature and childish,

a small suburban trolley line, but
which later was extended into the leas-
ing corporation of practically all of the
surface lines Of Manhattan and the
Bronx under the direction of w. G..
Whitney, Thomas f. Ryan, August Bel
mont and others, was placed In the
hands of two friendly receivers upon
the application of the Pennsylvania
Steel company and the Degnon Con
tracing company, creditors for COM
paratively small amounts. Judge La
combe appointed Douglas Robinson,
brother-in-law of President Roosevelt,
and Adrian II. Joline, president of the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas railroad,
as temporary receivers. This brings
about an extremely delicate legal stu
alton, as the receivers are authorized
to conduct the business with liberal
powers and are responsible solely to
the federal judge regardless of any ac-
ton that may be taken by the state
public service commission. This action
had been anticipated for some time
and was thought to forestall further
embarrassing investigation on the part
OF the commission.

make good only by pledging his New
York city home and his entire interest
in the Hamilton Fish estate. Mr.. Fish
