Reported Assassination.

London, Aug. 2S.-Although no con-
firmation had reached here this morn.
ing of the report from TaDgier that Sui
tan Abl-el-Aziz OF Morocco has been
assassinated, the greatest uueasiness
prevails lest the report be true. The
danger of reign Of anarchy throughout
Morocco in the event of the Sultsn's
assassination is what has caused so much
fear here. 10 view of the already dis
turbed condition ofthe country a struggle
for the throne is regarded as likely to
cause complications which it will require
months for Europe to straighten out.

mas a mystery that parallels the
strange death of Agnes Mcguire in
Dover, N. J. At the house of DR..
Harry StackpOle lies the body OF a
beautiful girl, about 20 years old, which,
unless identified today, will be buried
in an unmarked grave. The girl came
here several day ago suffering from the
effects of an operation and died, leaving
nothing to establish her identity but a
purse and hsil brush marked with the

took every precaution to hid her identity,
telling the physician only that her name
was "Kitty." Thus far every effort to
learn who she was has failed.

The IRISH evicted tenants bill finally
passed both houses Of Parliament yes
terday evening in an emasculated form.
The peers refused to bulge on the main
amendments, and in spite of the goads
Of the nationalist members the govern
ment elected to accept the mutilated
measure rather than abandon the bill en-
drely. The principal amendments In
serted by the House or Lords deprive
the commissioners of the power of turn
ing out the present holders of farms for
the purpose Of reinststing evicted ten
ants, and give landlords the right to ap-
peal to the law courts against the rulings
of the estate commissioners regarding
the value of land to be purchased.
