Assemblyman William p. Martin, in
Orange, last night, assailed Congress,

ditorium speech, was "a trimmer" Mr..
Martin gave the history of the direct

FEAR WAR BETWEEN
SPAIN AND MOORS
Troops Mobilizing for Service in
Africa-Bomb Explosions
Continue.

MADRID, Sept. 2i,--It is generally
believed here that the complications
which have arisen between Spain and
Mulai Hafd. the Sultan of Morocco,
are likely to result In a Spanish-Mo-
roccan war, that Is, a war between
Spain and the forces of the Sultan of
Morocco in distinction to the fighting
going on today, which is limited to the
Moorish tribesmen %inhabiting the Riff
country.
Spain today has over 5000 troops in
northern Africa with 1000 more
modifying for service there, and the
government feels that only the brilliant
completion of the work begun can de-
feat the plans of its political enemies
at home. The situation at Barcelona
is causing renewed anxiety. Bomb ex-
blossoms Oh the streets there are almost
of daily occurrence, but the newspapers
that print ven the rumors of such
occurrences are seized by the authori-
tiles.
The minister of the interior insists
that the government is not fighting it's
political enemies. but rather a wide
spread anarchistic plot. 1.-The charge
that we closed the lay schools without
reason is false" an official said today.
THE schools were closed because of the
preaching of anarchist doctrines against
religion and social order that could not
be tolerated by any government. When
the time comes we shall vindicate our
selves before the Cortes."

West Roxbury, Mass, Believers
Still Confident, However.

WEST DUXBURY, Mass, Sept. a.
Inspired by the conviction that today
would bring the enc of the world, 300
and more members of the Latter Reign
of the Apostolic Church or Triune I'M
mersionists, as they prefer to be called,
assembled about their place of worship
In the forenoon to await the d%estruc-
and the publication of the world
by fire, in fulfllment of their own
prophesy.
As the appointed time drew near the
believers filled the chapel and devoted
their energies to the singing of hymns.
Shortly before 10 o'clock the skies dark
ened. those who mad been watch
ing for a sign appeared convinced that
the millennium was at hand. Ten O'Clock
came, but the sky frightened, and the
millennium, in the opinion of the be-
levers. was apparently postponed for
a brief period of time.
1t was then explained that a revela-
ton which vas made to one of their
number last night indicated that the
destruction was to be deferred until
some time during the twenty-four
hours beginning at 8 o'clock this evs-
ming.

is well informed on the situation at

Reports reaching here were to
the effect that over hundred shots
were fired, and that the shooting
occurred at almost the same local
ity at which the Newman Prichard
affray occurred, which resulted in
the killing of Cornelius Prichard.
