-Four railroad presidents, two in
terstate commerce commissioners, a
former cabinet officer, bankers, manu-
tacturers, coll age professors, lawyers,
and labor lea1ers to the number OF
two score, will meet on June 23 to
frame, a model law for uniform
public utilities legislation throughout
the states, according to announcement
made to night by Seth Low, president
Of the National Civic federation, says
a New York dispatch of Friday. The
committee will be known as the ma
tional committee on the regulation OF
railroads and public utilities. In his
statement President Low said the fed
Grafton takes 1t for granted that there
should be regulation on the part or
the public and 1t is hoped that the

reasonable uniformity in the different
states. Another committee will meet
on June ii to draft similar measure

nations and trusts.
Paris, France, June IL: The
storm raised by Spanish military &C
ton in Morocco shows no sign OF
abating. The French press Is unani-
nous in condemning the attitude OF
spain and the nationalist section Is be-
ginning to raise the German bosy.
The Patrie declares Germany Is "pok-
ing up the fire" behind Spain. Mean
while, the latest dispatches from Mo-
rocco show Spain is carrying out her
programme undeterred by the repre-
sentations Of the French and the pro-
test of the Moors. AlcaZar already is
occupied and Teluan soon Will be. La
Liberte says the French government
has invited the Spanish to define the
motives, objects and Intentions OF It's
military action at Ell Araish and Alca-
Zar and France then will decide what
steps to take in accordance with the
reply. La Liberte denies the state
ment that the press of England has
encouraged Spanish action. On the
contrary, 1t asserts the British govern
ment, on two occasions, has called the
attention of the government at Ma
drid, in strong terms, to the dangers
and unnecessary military action.

mark in the heat which caused intense
suffering in most Of the country today
was scored by Yuma, Ariz., which with
an official reading Of 110, topped all
reports not only from the territory
west Of the Rocky Mountains, but

New Orleans, June IL: Known
since the Walker expedition Of the
early fifties as the hotbed Of revolu-
ton and the mecca of flibusters, New
Orleans is preparing today for anoth-
er annual upheaval in Central Ameri-
ca and the city is rapidly filing up
with the dark complexioned Latin
folk whose blood seems to simmer in
proportion to the intensity Of the hot
weather. And, as all weather bureau
records have been smashed this sea-
son, just so have the plans of the rev.
olutionists been elaborated, and unless
Uncle Sam steps in and Spoils the
game, almost the entire strip of land
from the southern border of Mexico
to Panama. with the possible eXcep-
ton Of Costa Rica, many witness with
in the next few months the most stu
pendous upheaval in the history Of
Central America. Everywhere there is
more or less talk of revolution in some
Central American country, and more
or less planned by persons who have
axes to grind, or persons who are will
ing to make a few hundred thousand
dollars in cash or concessions by fl
nancing a movement to change gov
ernments in the Central American re-
publics. Never before perhaps have
there been so many people Of known
revolutionary designs in New Orleans
as right now, and they are leading a
score of secret service agents of this
and other countries a merry chase
these hot days and nights.

and a theatre, which show cracks, the
property loss was insignificant. In
Zamora, the town where the cathedral
tower was said to have fallen and kill
ed scores of worshippers, no personal
