Zehrung sprang into the aisle and made

there waa no danger It they would be calm.
The crowd settled back Into the seats, the
performance continued. One . woman
rushed out the entrance and that was all.
A orowd collected on the outside, but Po

thing to Say Ahont
Its Eaecntlon.
ALGEC1MA8, Spain. Jan. 17,-The dele
gates of the Moroccan conference today
took a day of leisure In order to enable the
secretaries to get ready for their work, and
indulged in private conversations among
themselves or spent the time" in preparing
with their Junior colleagues for the discus
alon of the surveillance of contraband arms
in Morocco, the first question to be dis
cussed at the next meeting.
Ambassador White visited Gibraltar after
be and Minister Gummcre had gone over
the present situation In Morocco regarding
Illicit trade in arms. When the conference
hall agree on regulations for the punish
ment,. of foreigners engaged In smuggling
arm into Morocco most of the countries,
including the I'nlted States, will have to
legislate on the subject, as only Great
Britain and Spain by orders In council
penalise their subject abroad.
While the talk among ambassadors Is all
of harmony, Mohammed El . Torres, the
Moroccan foreign minister and head of the
mission of Morocco, and Mokrl, the sul
tan's principal agent, do not believe that
the conference will agree.
Position of Moroaoo.
Budget Menkln, an eminent authority on
Morocco, had a prolonged conference today
In Arabia with Mohammed El Torres and
repeated to the Associated Press the Moor
ish view, aa follows:
Mohammed El Torres will be a passive
observer at the conference until It enters
the last stage. If the powers-do not agree
the conference will fall to pieces of Itself
without the Moors lifting a) finger. If,
however, the powers accept a general plan
of control of Morocco the sultan cannot be
asked to submit to anything that will In
sult the faith or provoke a rebellion among
his own people. The powers will hesitate
before facing an international ml.ltary occu
pation of Morocco to linpone a acheme of
administration. The Moors expect some
power to take their viewpoint even were a
general agreement attained. They pray
much of the time for the Almighty to pro
tect his faithful, and they trut that the
powera of evil will fall Into confusion. The
whole of the Islam world Is somewhat ex
cited over the fate of Morocco, as it Is the
last Independent Mussulman kingdom of
Africa.
In concluding the conversation Moham
med el Torres used the following expressive
sentence as Indicating the Inconsistency
of the powera: "Why don't they hold a
conference upon Russia and establish order
there."
Wonld Bar Arms.
Mohammed El Torres expresses satisfac
tion at the fact that the conference will
begin with a discussion of contraband arms,
as this is a question on which Morocco Is
anxious to secure Intervention of the pow
ers. The Moroccans contend that while the
French and German governments nominally
restrict contraband arms from entering
Morocco the great manufacturers of arms
In France and Germany reap a harvest by
the Illicit introduction of arms, thus fo
menting anarchy and Insurrection. There
fore Morocco is prepared to have the pow
era decisively stop this contraband trade.
On the other hand some of the ambassa
dors fear that the contraband question may
precipitate a crisis over the main Franco
German controversy, as the surveillance of
contraband arms Involves the determina
tion whether France alone shall patrol the
coast, or whether the powers shall estab
lish .Jin Interna; lonal patrol. The determi
nation of who shall establish the patrol
may therefore bring up the principal
Franco-German Issue over France having a
special position warranting it to direct the
maintenance of order.

Consider Proposed Waae Keale
at Convention.
INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 17. Organisation of
the wage scale committee, which was ef
fected at a meeting held at 7 t'clork to
night, was the first step toward the para
mount business ft the convention of the
United Mine Worker.
Owing to the unwieldy sle of the com
mittee, which is composed of the presidents
of the various districts Into which the coal
mining country is divided. It was found
necessary to apportion the committee into
groups of four or five. In making these
divisions, representative of mines where
similar conditions exist were placed to
gether to reduce their statements to one,
which should, as nearly as possible, repre
sent the deV.res of all the men Interested.
The later sessions of the general scale com
mittee, which will be held dally, will be de
oted to unifying the mattere agreed upon
by the members of the different sectional
If roups. When this J completed and the
doiiip.ndH' have been so adjusted that they
nre representative of the wishes of the men
iliroUKhoul the country, the scale commit
tee will be ready to report to the conven
tion. Tliis report Is not expected before
Saturday or Monday.

Iowa Lady Has Great Faith
In Cuticura Remedies for Skip
Diseases. .
ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CUTICURA
"I had an eruption appear on nvjr
thet and body and extend upward
and downwards, so that my neck and
face were all broken out; also my arm
and the lower limba aa far aa the knee.
I at fin thought it waa prickly heat.
But soon acalea or crusta formed where
the breaking, out waa. Instead of going
to a physician, I purehaaed a complete
treatment of the Cuticura Remedies, in
which I had great faith, and all wag
satisfactory. A year or two later the
eruption appeared again, only a littla
lower; but before it had time to spread
1 procured another supply of the Cuti
cura Remedies, and continued their use
until the cure was cdniplete. It is now
five years sinoe the last attack, and
have not seen any sitms of a return. I
have taken about three bottles of the
Cuticura Resolvent, and do not know
how much of the Soap or Ointment, as
I always keep them with me; probably
one half doren of each.
" I decided to five the Cuticura Rem
edies a trial after I had seen the rrsulU
of their treatment at ecema on an
infant belonging to one of our neigh
bors. The parent took the ehild to the
nearest physisian, but his treatment did
no good. So they procured the Cuticura
Remedies and cured her with them.
When they began using Cuticura Rem
cdiea hJ' fsce was temUy disfigured
with sores, but she was anlirely cured,
for 1 saw the same child at the age of
five years, and her mother told me the
cseiua had never broken out since. I
bave more faith in Cuticura Remedies
for skin disease than anything I know
of. 1 am, respectfully yours, Emms K.
