WATERSPOUT IS SEEN

NEW YORK. March 6.-A water
spout and seven schools Of por-
poises, estimated TO have numbered
1000. provided entertainment for
the passengers Of the Fort Victoria,
Of the F'urness- Bermuda Line. The
porpoises accompanied the ship un-
til land was sighted.
The waterspout, according to
ships officers, was sighted $50
miles from this port. It's maximum
height, they said was $50 feet, by
the time II reached the ship, how.
ever, it had been dissipated. dying
entirely about $50 feet from the
liner.
Purser James w. Firth said por.
poises are seldom seen 80 far north
and not in the memory Of oldest
sailors have so many OF them been
seen at once in this vicinity.

Finance and Foreign Ministers
Caillaux and BRAND are at work on
plan for taking care of France S
war debts. This particularly inter
ests America and Great Britain, the
former 1000 million dollars worth
Americans and Britons shouldn't be
too hopeful, however Every previ-
Gus debt settlement scheme France
has proposed has been contingent on
Gsrmany's payment of French claims
against her. The next one probably
will be the same way. If so, neither
America nor Britain will accept. The
security's too doubtful.
ABD-EL-KRIM
? Abd-el-krim's war against the
French and Spanish in Morocco has
reached such proportions that France
considers it worth while to- censor
the news. Rather peculiarly, France,
the worlds strongest military power
in the air. is depending mainly on
old-fashioned surface tactics against
the rebels, though it would seem as
it planes would be ideal for the Nor
ocean type of fighting. This leads
to some wondering if the French
haven't discovered aviation to be less
effective than enthusiasts have rem
resented it,
RAISULI
The celebrated Moroccan bandit.
Raisuli, previously on Spain's side, is
fighting for Abd-el-Krim now. Raj
sui has been thorn in civilizations
side for generation. A pretty good
warrior, he nevertheless relied prin-
cipally on keeping his enemies from
catching him, which they never
could. Finally it struck the Spanish
that he would be good man to help
them against Abd-el-Krim. For the
high pay they offered he was willing
enough. But he. proved less useful
than Spain had hoped. Whereas
European trained. soldiers had heen'l
