ALEXANDRIA. Va. April 6. 1911.
The arrest Of three women and three
men. alleged clippers. in York, Pa, last
evening, is the cause of much gossip in
Alexandria today. The women gave their
names as Mrs. Samuel Harrington, Mrs.
William Powers and Mrs. j. H. Crawley
The men who accompanied them gave
their names as Eugene Crawley, Patrick
Woodward and Forest Oehlert.
Mrs. Harrington and Mrs. Powers are
sisters. Crawley is a Washington man
and Mrs. Crawley, whom he is said to
have married after the party left Alexan-
dria, was a Miss ]. H. Brown of this
city.
The sextet, 1t is reported left Alexan-

twenty-seven years old and an attractive
brunette. Up to the time Of her disap-

little daughter at 219 South Payne street

At the Harrington home this morning
it was said that Mr. Harrington, who is
a Southern railway engineer, was out on

1t was also said that Mr.. Harrington
would leave for York, Pa, next Saturday
and bring his wife back to Alexandra.
Mrs. Harrington. before her departure

AN UNUSED EMPIRE.

Perhaps it is because Morocco has
much in the way of unused resources
that Germany and France are almost
at swords points about the African
empire
Writing for the bulletin of the de-
partment of commerce and labor
Counsel General Maxwell Blake Of
Tangier, says:
With a population variously esti-
mated at 6,OOO,OO to 100000 in
habitants, embracing a territory in
area approximating that of the State
Of Texas, of which perhaps 60 per
cent is tillable, Morocco has less than
10 per cent of its soil now under even
the rudest cultivation.
In addition to its undoubted agri-
cultural resources. rich mineral de-
posits of copper iron, lead, antimony
sulphur, silver gold, and petroleum
are also said to exist in various parts
of the Sultanate. The hostility of the
interior tribes prevents any extensive
European mining investigation or en-
terprises, but several companies have
been organized in anticipation of early
results.
The interior of Morocco, although
generally open to travellers, is not per.
manently occupiable as yet on ac'
count of lack of security to both life
and property. immigration is confined
principally to the so-called French
zone of influence along the coast, cen
tering especially in and about Casa
blanca, but the influx of Germans il
also visibly increasing in the vicinit!
of Mogador
Morocco, therefore, is still in th'
rudimentary stages of both economi
and commercial development. Onl.
foreign capital seems available for tn
development of trade, agriculture, tn
mooted irrigation projects, railroads
etc. In the costal regions, some pro
gress is being made, but the vast ricl
interior remains uneXploited, with
large section actually unexplored.
