Sleeps Soundly

Auburn, Cal, September 12-Robert G. Fowler, who arrived here last night at the end of his first days air journey from San Francisco en route to New York, slept soundly as if no attempt at mak- ing history confronted him. He was up early today and went at once to the hangar. where his biplane had been guarded through the night A crowd met him there and cheers greeted his appear ance.
 Long before s o'clock, the hour desg- mated by Fowler as that of his start on today's journey, the machine was sur rounded by a cheering crowd. Fowler ate a hearty breakfast and said that he felt confident of successful flight 10 Reno Nev.
 The aviator now faces the most difficult flight of the entire journey. He must cross the Sierras. He expects to reach an altitude of more than 5000 feet. He said probably he would fly about 2000 feet above the summit which would give him an altitude between $500 and 5000 feet. Expecting to encounter severe cold dur ing the three and a half or four hours in crossing the mountains, Fowler dressed warmly this morning He carries beef
 tea and q thermol heater on the biplane and depends on chocolate wafers to sat- isfy his hunger while in the air.

CABINET |NDORSES
 REPLY ID GERMANY
Procedure Secret But Re- fusal of German Demands
 Is Understood

Paris, September 12.-A momentous meeting of the cabinet was held this aft ernoon to consider Frances reply to Ger many's counter proposals in the Moroccan negotiations The meeting lasted three hours. The terms and rough draft of the document were laid before the min isters by Foreign Minister Deselves.
 Although the ministers formally re- fused to make any statement as to what passed at the council, it is understood the cabinet accorded its fullest approval of the reply prepared by MT. epeselves, which is no less explicit than that sub n.itted by Germany. It sets forth in the dearest manner Frances position With regard to the question of principle raised by Germany and pays particular atten- tion to the necessity of maintaining com mereia equality for all, and of an as surance to France of an absolutely Tree hand politically in Morocco.
 The foreign minister will proceed to Ranbouillet tomorrow to submit the de- cision of the cabinet tos President Fal- Heres lie will then have drawn up the definite text of the reply which Will be dispatched from Paris without delay ana will be in the possession of the German government by the end of the week.
 The reply had been drawn up by Pre- mier Caillaux and the ministers were summoned specially to pass upon it. It was understood before the cabinet met that the French note had been written in a spirit Of concilation but expressed a firm attitude in maintaining the position which France had assumed on questions of principles on which she could not de part semi-official note issued yester- day indicated the German conditions would be refused.
 The Temps this afternoon affirmS that Frances answer will negative most Of the conditions for settlement put for- ward by Germany. The Temps regrets 'the optimism by. command' shown in the important German newspapers Tn or der to quiet the financial excitement,' saying that it Is imprudent and adding that the realities of the situation will cor recty come to public knowledge as an unhappy surprise.
 Berlin, September 12-No further devel- opments in the Moroccan affair are ex- pected here pending the receipt of Frances reply to the German note, The French amba ssador M. Cambon is in Dresden with his family awaiting the next move by his government.
 Although the public anxieties regarding the difference between Germany ann France have been largely allayed, stooA opened somewhat weaker on the Bourse today, owing to the unsatisfactory coursc of the New York and Paris markets yes terday.
 A report printed in the foreign press that the Russian government had with drawn great sums of money from Berlin is autholitativey denied. It is asserfea reports of withdrawal of French credits from German houses have been much ex- aggerated. Whatever withdrawals were made were so slight, it is declared, They played no part in the recent stock mar ket panic. s
 A report circulated in financial circles that Germany had withdrawn the cruiser Berlin from Agadir was given official de nal this evening.

Reported British Refugees
 Have Found Safety
THE TROOPS REBELED
Cheng Tu Is Besieged and It Is Not Known Whether Americans Are There or Have Fled-The
 Situation Is Grave


 Pelung. September 12,-An imperial edict issued today says:
 "The ring leaders in the disorders in Szechuen province intended td proclaim independence. As consequence China will order the vieeroy to destroy the Red rebels to the last man."
 The viceroy's attention was not called to the fact that many of those taking part in the disturbances, however, were misguided The government instructed him to differntiate between them and the actual rebels in imposing punish ment.
 The possibility of serious results in Szechuen is considered grave. If the rebellion is not promptly suppressed It is likely to spread to other provinces where there has been much discontent of late.
 Several of the newspapers are urging the people to join in the uprising put the merchants everywhere fear that II the rebels succeed it might be the be- ginner of a general conflagration.
 The Japanese legation received dis patch indicating that Chinese troops were among the rebels who were besieg- ing Cheng Tu. No reports. however, reached here as to the extent of the af- fected zone. The Yang Tse section of the province has not yet broken out al though ready to participate if the move ment seems to be successful. It is not known whether the American and Cana dian missionaries that left Cheng Tu are being now besieged there. There was intention of sending the women and children forward. If they left the city and journeyeo in safety they should reach their destination in two days. Chen Kiang, Western China, Septem- Der 12.-A serious rebellion has occurred in the district of Cheng Tu. The soldiers refuse to obey instructions and are try ing to bring force against the govern ment control of the railway.

 The missionaries are concentrating here Four foreign gunboats provide all pro- lection. Cheng Tu is quiet. The uprs- ing is not at present directed against foi eigners.
 Pekng, September 12.-The British le- eation received telegram today stating that the first party of refugees rom Chens Tn had arrived in safety at Sui Fue Evidently these refugees, all of whom the dispatch says were British citizens. came down the river and were met by a British gunboat,
 The arrivals at Sui-Fue number r most of whom are women and children
 A belated dispatch to the British le- gation, dated Chen Tu September 9. ssys;
 "The other missionaries remain at Cheng Tu upon the advice of the vice. roy, who is confident. The troops easily repulsed both the attack on the govern me,it house and later attack on the gates of the city"
 The government for four days past has ''-ied in vain to communicate with Sheng Tu.

1911 SESSION OF LEGISLATURE
Legislation Which Will Receive the
Consideration Of the Solons at
Bismarck

The 1911 session of the North Das
kota legislature will be one of the
most interesting held in many years.
Many important questions are COM
ing up. Among these may be men
toned the reapportionment of legis-
lative representation; the proposition
to repeal the wolf bounty bill; the
election of Z. S. senator; possible
amendments to the primary law; tax
and railroad legislation; legislation
dealing with the question of conser-
walton; and it is altogether likely
that the Fargo people will raise the
question of the location of the state
fair at that place. In addition to
these there will be heavy grist of
bills touching the usual subjects and
possibly a few genuine surprises.
With such a prospect, this years
legislature will be one of the most
closely watched assemblies in our
history. In order to satisfy the pub
lie with quick. reliable news from
the center of things, the Grand
Forks Daily Herald has arranged to
keep a representative in Bismarck
during the entire session, and to give
the people the best news service pos
sible concerning these affairs.
Would it not be worth while to
take advantage of this service by
