Tonight street car service bad ajwutned

available man that oould be had was put

Thla evening the sleet storm subsided and
was followed by a fall of snow. Little
atfflculty was exjerleneed In dlsnoalng of
the snow and all car ltnt-s were running
aa schedule time. Snow and colder weather
in predicted for tomorrow, but It Is fore
casted that the worst of the storm ha
lasved.
The aiortu commenced juat before mid
night last night and caused one of the
worst tie-ups thla city has known In years.
But few telegraph wires were working out
it the city today in any direction. Inalde

)dly crippled and tha electric linea were
Unioat out of communication. . The rail
roads were still greater sufferers. Many

The weather bureau announce that the

ALGEC. Jan. 71. The Interna .ional
conference Moroccan reform re-aa-in-bled
at th vn hall thin morning. Tha
presiding o . the duke of Almodovan.
rad measa, mm the Spanish Senate
and Chambe Deputies expressing hope
for a aueresi asue of the conference.
The Marqul. ?ontl. head of the Italian
mission, rep; - n the name of th dele
gate, mad a,rn1flrant reference lo tha
International character of the agreement
to be concluded her. This was interpreted j
aa referring to the Franco -O'rrnan d.ffi- ,
culty over the question of the Interna
tional control of Morocco.
The conference adopted four of the six
teen articles contained In the report of the
committee on contraband arms. Then, as
the sitting hsd lasted two and a half hours,
discussion of the remaining articles went
over until Wednesday, tomorrow being re
served for the ceremonies attending the
feast day of King Alfonso. The discussion
brought out a lengthy discourse from Bidl
Mohammed el Mikhrt. the second of the
Moroccan delegate.
He spoke concerning Morocco' general
attitude towards the conference. As he
spoke In Arabic, the delegates listened
silently, not comprehending a word. Later
they decided to have a translation dis
tributed to the members of the confer
ence.
The next Incident occurred when M. !
Reval. had of the French mission. !
answering the Moors" request for time i
to refer certain features of the report to 1
the sultan, remarked that the Moors ap- j
pes red desirous to refer some portions of f
it and not to refer others. Thereupon Sid! '.
Mohammed declared that they were obliged j
to refer everything without exception to j
the sultan. This brought on a discussion '
among the delegates showing that they all
were similarly obliged to refer Important
points to their respective governments.
The draft of the report under discussion.
besides providing repressive laws by the
powers, charges the Moroccan customs j
authorities with the repression of contra
band along the coast.
Before seizing a foreign ship they must
notify the legation of the country to which
the ship belongs snd pending action on the
part of the legation at Tangier, the Mo
roccan authorities shall Install a guardian
on board the ship. I'pon the legation's ap
proval of the seizure the contraband cargo
will be condemned, the proceeds going to
the Moroccan treasury while the fines will
be distributed between the Informers and
the Moroccan treasury.
' The draft gives France exclusive control
over contraband on the Algerian frontier
and gives Spain exclusive control along
the frontier of Spain's posaeeisons in Mo
rocco. The general principle of the plan 1 to
leave the coast surveillance with the Mo
roccan customs, but as the question of
France' administering the customs comes
up later the Franco-German contention
remain open.

The treet were crowded with people at

many of them wore bands of crepe on their

revolutionary cause.
The anniversary here passed in the tamest
fashion. There were no developments or
disorder. Early dispatches from the In
terior report that no serioas disorder
occurred anywhere. The day here was
absolutely unevcnLful except stoppage of
work at some of the factories, but attempt
to make the strike general waa a failure. A
large proportion of the workmen disre
garded the appeal.
The electric light plants and street car
service are both working and the stores

assertion that officer on Out' at Annap-

J. Eccleston gave similar tesMmonr.
Mayo then told of the conversation, but
he did not remember exactly what was
he would do so which wa strengthened, he
ald. by the fact that the officer actually
did leave the building after dinner. He had
then, be said, gone to the rooms of some

be punished twice. On cross examination
he said the Incident of the conversation
mad a deep impression on him because
he had often heard of officers suggesting
srh things to midshipmen, but had never
before heard it himself. The defense closed
,s case at this point.
Lieutenant Snyder waa recalled by the
prosecution in rebuttal. He remembered
only that be had spoken only to Brainard
about the Isuehter. He could not remember
the words attributed to him, but would not
say absolutely that he hsd not used them.
He denied positively, however, that he had
said to Brainard that be wa going to
