Paris, Oct. Cen. A. q. l.. d'Amade,
the leader of the French expedition in
Morocco, in a sensational interview in
The Matin this morning. declares that
the time has arrived for France to call
halt on Spain's penetration OF Mo-
roco and intervene to save the econ
omic and political interests OF Africa,
He says that French influence and
the tranquility of Algeria are threat
ened. and that Teza, Morocco. which is
the natural outlet of Algeria to the
Atlantic, is likely to figure as another
Fashoda. and may fall into the hands
of the Spanish. This would be dis
astrous to French interests.
General d'Amade claims that the
church of Rome is urging Spain TO
extend It's influence in Morocco. which
is considered Spanish apostolic
yicarate.

Washington, Oct. 6.-Commandes
Peary has formally notified the Ma
tional Geographic ssociety. of his ac-
ceptance OF its offer to examine and
pass upon the records OF his polar ex-
plorations.
This notice came to Prof. Willis j..
Moore. President of the Society, In o
telegram from Commander Peary In
New York. reading as follows:
Copy of society's resolution just re-
ceived. am not only willing but de-
sire to su bmit my records and data TO
commission OF American scientists
that Is impartially selected"
October ! the board of managers OF
the National Geographic Society sent
to both Commander Peary and DIR.
Cook resolution. the last paragraph
OF which was as follows:
THE National Geographic Society
urges Commander Peary and DIR. Cook
speedily to submit all their observa-
lions. notes and data to a competent
scientific commission In the United
States"
So far the society has heard nothing
from DIR. Cook in answer TO this invi-
tation save through the public prints.
1t Is presumed. in view of the fact that
the American Geographical Society and
the Museum of American History In
New York also invited both of the polar
explorers to submit their records fer
the consideration OF the commission.
that Commander Peary has made them
a response similar to that received this'
morning by the National Geographic
Society.
The regular meeting of the board OF
directors OF the National Geographic
Society will be held here next Friday.
when President Moore will present
Commander Peary's telegram and soms
action will be taken looking to the APP
pointment of a special commission. In
case DR.. Cook fails to respond to the
invitation, President Moore says the
special commission will neverth eless
consider Commander Peary's data.

him from deriving much benefit from

grumbles if he has to walk half mile

but the average man not only neglects
to obtain sufficient exeT else, but he
grows .sitively lazy owing to the

Cheap trains, tubes and motor

walk on every possible occasion. The
result is that he grows fat, bilious
