washington, June 28.-A dispatch to
the state department from H. Percival
Dodge, the American minister to
Morocco. says that the sultan's troops
have been defeated by forces led by
the old pretender. Roghi, and that
among nearly all the troops about Fez
rebellious tendencies are growing rap
10y in favor of several other preten-
ders.
1t is reported that foreigners are
preparing to leave Fez. The American
government has no consular represen-
tative there and the British minister
at Tangter has instructed the consul
of that country to Fez to extend the
necessary protection to Americans
who may be there.
Mr.. Dodge says that 1t is apparent
the government Of the sultan is in q
rather critical situation.

ed the police to give some attention to
1.-THE theory strongly revived today that
the missing man man not have killed
Elsie Sigel, and that he was himself
q victim of~the same hand that kille.
the girl
This line of reasoning necessitatss
lthe rejection OF the story told by
Chung Sin who said he had seen Leon
in the room over the Eighth avenue
restaurant where Miss SigePs dead
body lay. but the authorities declare
that Chung's statements have shown
discrepancies with known facts in
several particulars.
In considering the possibility that
Leon was killed it is regarded as prob
able that lrts body was placed In a
trunk as was the girl's and this has
drawn renewed attention to the bag
gage checked to Schenectady, NJ. Y,
near where Chung Sin was found and
rechecked by Chinaman from Sche-
nectady to Cleveland. o.
