FRENCH REGARD THE

Paris, Aug. 24.--The Moroccan sltu-
alton is regarded here as having as
sumed a distinctly more serious as
pect. The ferment in the interior of
Morocco. the proclamation of MElai
Hafig, the snltan's brother, as sultan
by a section Of the rebels, and the ap-
pearance of a new Moorish army be-
fore Casa Blanca have created the
fear that the whole country will soon
be abla2e with fanaticsm.
General Drude. commander of the
French forces at Casa Blanca, has now
practically asked for reinfOrcements.

out with being constantly under arms
but, especially insisting that he Is los

disposal prevents him from following

The government appreciates the
justice of the argument, and although
orders to forward additional troops to
Morocco had not been issued up to
noon today, the government Is ex-
pected to decide on this step before
night. over 1000 colonial infantry,
cavalry and troops of other arms
have been m0bllized at Oran and are
ready TO embark on transports, while
other transports and warships are I'm

Is resisting this pressure. desiring to

negotiations are on foot to secure an

New York Aug. 24.----There is no
danger of meat famine in this city
because of the strike of the drivers
of the delivery wagons. This is the
statement made today by William II.
Noyes, chairman of the committee
which is handling the strike for the
packers. Mr.. Noyes said that prac-
tically all the firms affected by the
strike We're moving their teams and
delivering meat today under an escort
of mounted police.
Jacob Reindel, a strikebreaker, wis
badly beaten today by four men who
dragged him from his wagon and beat
him up with pickhandles under the
very noses of the police The assail-
ants made good their escape and thei"
victim was hurried to the Roosevelt
hospital, where his condition was said
to be critical. Howling mobs followed
the meat wagons driven by non-union
men and stones We're frequently
hurled at the drivers. The mounted
police did their best to preserve the
peace but their work was hampered
by the thrOngs of idle sightseers who
packed the streets in the vicinity of
the West Side packing houses.

earth. This can we'll be said of our
old friend and neighbor, G. B. Nail,
who was killed in the mines recently
at Blyth. Our informant says that
the deceased moved to Flagler twen-
ty-five years ago from Missouri and
went to work in the mines. During
the time he talked up cooperation
among the miners and in course of
time started up cooperative store
with the deceased as general man.
ager. Their trade grew rapidly and
in a short time an addition was built
to the building to hold the immense
stock. The writer moved to Flagler
about eighteen years ago and this
store was then employing three clerks
and Mr.. Nail himself to handle the
trade, with a ten thousand dollar
stock of general merchandise. The
membership had dragged down at this
time TO three men, the deceased and
Harvey Booth Of Knoxville and John
Martin, now of Hiteman, who are the
only members Of the above firm still
living, as far as the writer knows.
About sixteen years ago, one Sunday
evening about 2 p. NJ, the deceased
went into the store and prepared the
mail and put IT into the sack and car

The writer and Richard Simpson were
sitting out doors at our residence op-
poslte the store talking, when we saw
a volume of fire and smoke breaking
out OF the rear end of the building.
The alarm was raised and portion
Of the stock was saved but the most
OF 1t went up in smoke. This ended
the career Of the cooperative store at
Flagler. During the FIRE 1t was shown

pleased to meet his old-time friend
Harve Dusenbury, in town Friday.
Harye and the writer were old neigh
bors at Evans twenty-four years TSo,
and saw the first church and school
house put up in the town. He and mis-
esteemed wife always took an active
part in the building up of the town.
He says, Come and see me when in

latch string on the outside. Let me
know and we will kill the fatted calf

hospitality at an early day.
The coloFed man recently referred
to in our letter returned to his family
this week He informs us that he
would have returned week earlier
but while in Oskaloosa he took on too
much rye water, and was locked up
for a week in the Jail there. He is at
a serious loss to know what has gone
wrong with the officers there. He
says he has been getting drunk in Os-
kaloosa for the last fourteen years,
going to sleep in the park, on the
streets and any old place in town and
never was locked up before this time.
He was drunk but was acting like

says that the miners have no kick

William Garden of Mcmillan was a

In the rear part of the store there
was a half of a cheese and a knife.
The cheese and knife were carried
out and the trunk and money went up
in smoke. The deceased had just COM
pleted a magnificent residence on top
of a hill from the store and had NOV
ed his family in it. After closing out
his business there he moved his fam
lily back to Missouri and opened up
a large stock of general merchandise.
In this he made fiat failure, large
stock and no trade. He disposed of
this business at ruinous price and
moved out to Washington Territory.
Here the writer lost track of him un-
til he moved back to Iowa and started
to work in the mines again. During
his business career he was known to
every drummer from Kansas City to
Chicago. An order from him was as
good as gold. He was a veteran of
the Civil War with the best of rec
ord. The writer has talked with sew
eral who were with him during the

his mining career on his return to
Iowa, he worked is the mines at Pc
kay and Hilton. This last place was
the last place we saw him. Thus now
ends the career of a notable man.
When burned out at Flagler his
wealth was estimated at anywhere
from twenty to twenty-five thousand
dollars, and then he died as above re-
corded. Which brings to our minds
that we are born but not dead yet,
and never know what will happen 10
