ANXIETY INTENSE OVER
FATE OF FRENCH OFFICERS
BY Associated Press.

Paris, Aug. 2S.-Public anxiety was
intense today over the fate of French
officers held as hostages by the Moors
at Marakesh, Morocco. Emissaries
have been dispatched by the French
commander but have obtained no in
formation.
General Lyautey, the French resi-
dent governor reported to the foreign
office today that the volunteers who
had undertaken the dangerous duty
had returned from FL Hiba's head
quarters where they had in vain tried
to effect a ransom.
The French column has been given
full liberty to proceed to the succor Of
the hostages If such a step should be
thought advisable. The French troops
however are too fully occupied to do
anything in that way as they have
their hands full in blocking the prog
ress of the Moorish pretender's forces
towards Fee and Mazagan.
Profound Indignation has been
aroused throughout France by the re-
port that the Spaniards had given as
sistance to FL Hiba, whom it was al
legged that they had supplied with
arms. The French government has
demanded official reports on the sub
7ect from its representatives in Mo-
rocco and if the allegations should be
confirmed, an energetic protest would
be made and a demand for the ces-
sation of the traffic will be made at

.o.vvnr NIGHT
SEVERAL CASES OF SHOES ARE
TAKEN FROM ONE CAR AND
SOME LARD FROM ANOTHER
SWITCH ENGINE FOREMAN
CHASED ONE OF THE MEN.

Freight car robbers were busy dur
ing Tuesday night, and in one instance
a man with some Of the stolen goods
was seen and given a chase near the
passenger depot, but made his escape
when his pursuer ran into a clothes
line.
One car was broken into near the
freight depot and several cases of fine
shoes stolen. This happened before
midnight, for the Waterman had made
his rounds q. short time previous to the
discovery by a switchman that the car
had been broken into.
An hour or so later another car con-
tanning provisions was broken into
near Alcaniz street. Foreman Den
nard of one of the switch engines, be-
fore knowing the car had been looted
saw a negro crossing the tracks with
a case of lard on his shoulders. The
negro ran as soon as he saw the fore
man, and the latter gave chase. He
was fast gaining on the negro
when the latter lodged into the yard
Of a section house on North Tarragona
street. The negro passed beneath a
clothes line stretched across the yard,
but Dennard did not see it and the line
caught him under the chin, putting an
e--J to his pursuit. The negro dropped
the lard, which was recovered.

A RESOLUTION
COMMENDSTHE
COUNTY BOARD
WAS INTRODUCED AT CITY coUN-
GIL MEETING LAST NIGHT CON-
MENDING COUNTY COMMITS
SIONERS UPON ACTION RE-
oARDINo OYSTER PERMIT IN
BAYOU TEXAR.

One of the interesting features of
the city council meeting held last night
was the introduction of resolution
commencing the action of the board of
county commissioners of Escambia
county in rescin ding rnefr recent &C
ton in granting a permit for oyster
privileges on Bayou Texar, it being
claimed that the persons making the
application intended establishing an
oyster reserve for commercial pur-
poses.
1t will be recalled that some months
ago the board of commissioners
granted a permit to some parties for
an oyster reserve on Bayou Texar and
later, after the board mad been con-
WINGED that the persons to whom the
permit was granted intended using it
for commercial purposes, the permit
was revoked. The substance of the
resolution introduced last night, and
which will be voted upon at the next
meeting of the council, is to commend
that action and to go on record as OPP
posing the granting of any more sim
liar privileges.
The resolution was introduced by
Alderman Bear, by request, and, on
motion, it was decided to furnish each
alderman with a copy and vote upon
the resolution at the next regular
meeting.
The resolution is as follows:
Whereas, the attempt was recently
made to establish a private oyster re-
serve for commercial purposes, of some
twenty or more acres IN extent, ex-
tending across, or practically across
Bayou Texar, at or near where Ger
vantes street, Gadsden street and
Jackson street intersect with said
Bayou Texar and
Whereas, in the opinion of the city
council of Pensacola, such a reserve,
or anything like it, would be a serious
hindrance to the development of the
section of the city, bordering on and
adjacent to Bayou Texar, therefore
Be it Resolved, that the city council
| of Pensacola commends the action Of
the county commissioners of Escam-
bia county in resembling its former &C
| ton in granting the reserve, and
| Be it Further Resolved. that the city
| council of Pensacola hereby puts it
| self on record as being opposed to the
| granting by the county commissioners
| of any further oyster reserve permits
! on said Bayou Texar between its juno
ture with Pensacola bay and a line
east and west across said bayou at the
eastern extremity of Bayview Park
! and hereby requests that no such per-
| mits be granted.

AMERICA LEADING IN
MANUFACTURING AUTOMOBILES
by Associated Press.

New York. Aug. 28-The thousands
of automobiles produced annually by
individual makers in this country must
seem fantastic to the F'renchman who
has a chance to find out how many
cars are produced in the factories of
his native land. once the leader of
the automobile industry of the world.
A statistical expert here figures that
the twenty seven leading French max
ers produced . total of less than $4,000
cars in 1911. There are at least half a
dozen concerns in TINS country which
individually produce more cars than
all of France, and a few of them that
produce more than twice as many.

Speaking at banquet given in his honor at Fairbanks the day before he left for Washington Delegate Wicker sham reminded his audience that the grant of home rule to Alaska could not benefit the territory much unless all got together and helped to make territorial government He particularly urged the lawyers of the territory to give their attention to the code that could be made to conform with changed conditions in the territory.

Nickers!ams remarks could not have been more timely to the point If home rule for Alaska is to be more than sham cooperation is essentia and not only cooperation between the different districts, which, Major Morrow pointed out is entirely acing but the part of every resident of the territory.
