by royalty bestows on them value
far beyond that Of ordinary second
hand clothing.
Some six years ago, Queen Mar

and which she had discarded only
few days before on account OF that

Then she returned to the palace and
started an investigation. AS a result,
Teresa was bounced, for Teresa, it
turned out, had been in the habit Of
selling her perquisites.g as she
called them, to wEomsoeyer would

Teresa had several successors, who

The French are engaged In restoring
the ancient treasury OF the Athenians

spoils OF the battle OF Marathon. The
precincts Of the temple OF Apollo at
Delphi. the great theater and the
stadium, were excavated by French
archaeologists IN 1Ss21s97, and the
French school at Athens had published
some splendid plates Of the results.
One Of the most interesting Of the dis

FRANCE UNEASY; PEOPLE,
CALL FOR A PARLIAMENT
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PARIS, Sept. 5.-While there has not
been more fighting at Casa Blanca since
the fierce engagement of Tuesday, the
seriousness of the general situation In
Morocco and the possibilities of its lead
ing France into diplomatic difficulties with
the other powers of Europe, notably Ger
many and Great Britain to say nothing of
the apparently growing necessity of in
creasingj the size of the French force on
the Moroccan coast, is occupying the at
tention of the French people.
The press is calling attention to the diff
ficulty of keeping within the terms of the
Algeciras convention and the call to con-
woke parliament to discuss and decire
what course the nation should pursue is
becoming more insistent. There is a
growing feeling that the important de-
cisions in the matter of Frances policy in
Morocco should not be left entirely to the
members of the cabinet.
The seriousness ofethe fighting of Tues
day, in which Maj. Provost of the foreign
legation was killed, further details of
which are published today, has brought
home to the French people a comprehen-
sion of the persistent resistance of the
Moors and realization that France may
be only at the threshold of a protracted
campaign that may easily prove costly in
lives and money.
The situation is now referred to as a
war" and no longer an expedition of
pacification.

STANDARD OIL HEARING
Is AGAIN POSTPONED
Case Set for September II in Order to
Allow Desired Excerpts to
Be Made from
Books

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Another post
ponement of the taking of testimony
against the Standard Oil cmopany of New
Jersey and affiliated concerns was ordered
today by ex-Judge Franklyn Ferris of st.
Louis, who is acting as examiner for the
federal court
The hearing is now scheduled for Sep
tember II, and it is said there will be no
delay beyond that date In the proceed
ings. The adjournment was requested by
the attorneys for the defendant companies
and the special counsel representing the
government. 1t was granted to give the
Standard Oil time to prepare statements
from its books and records which are de-
sired in shaping the prosecution.
These statements, 1t was claimed, would
do away with the necessity of bringing all
the books of the various companies to the
federal court and would ultimately expe-
dite the hearing.
The testimony to be taken In New York
will be of a documentary character and
will be reported back to the United States
circuit court in st. Louis, where the gov
ernment suit to dissolve the so called oil
trust was brought up.
Special Attorney Frank B. Kellogg to-
day at the brief session before Examiner
Ferris said that the government does not
waive the production of the books and
documents in question II they are deemed
necessary, and that the right to verify
the statements from the company's books
is reserved.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Ferdinand PEN
ney Earle, the artist who sent his wife
to France, her old home, to secure di-
vorce so that he might marry another
woman, received a sorry welcome when
he returned to his home in Monroe, N.

well at the steamer, according to ad-
vices received here today.
Earle was met by crowd of villagers
as he stepped from the train, who in
suited and hooted him and then pulled
him from his carriage and dragged him
through the mud of the village streets.
Earle courageously faced his tormen-
tors, exhorted the crowd in an attempt
to vindicate himself and then, goaded
for an instant by the insults of the peo-
ple he seized his carriage whip and
slashed at the crowd.
A man snatched the whip from his
hands and, bAstanders state, struck at
the artist. Further trouble was pre-
vented by the appearance Of officers,
who forced Earle to return to his home,
though he persisted in trying to explain
his views to the angry crowd.

Suppression of Rebellion Not Part of

Secretary
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
BERLIN, Sept. 5.-Foreign Secretary
Tschirsky in conversation with repre-
sentatives of the powers has stated that
Germany accepted fully the French as
surances that the operations of the al
lied forces in Morocco would be within
the terms of the Algeciras convention.
He casually added, in substance, that of
course the Algeciras convention did not
contemplate France and Spain undertake
ing to suppress a civil war in Morocco.
This reservation shows that any mill
tary operations on the part of the allies
must either arouse controversy or be
preceded by the consent of the interested
powers.
The British government seems to be
waiting to see what Germany will dc
and Germany is determined to prevent the
Experimentation of Morocco Nt
Herr Tschirsky today received three
leading German merchants of Casa
Blanca, who filed claims for compensa-
tfon for the needless destruction by the
French they affirm, of German property
at Casa Blanca.
These merchants expressed their opin-
ion that action of the French was hasty
and provocative and that probably no
fighting would have occurred had the
French consul been at Casa Blanca.
