The Sultan yesterday as- sembled the nobles of the besieged town at the palace and exhorted them not to despair, assuring them that the imperial | troops ultimately would triumph. Great Britain and France have notifled Spain that they have no intention of i taking any advantage of the situation in | Morocco, and that they desire the main- tenance .of the status. quo, even in the event of the Sultan being dethryned avrd his place taken by the pretender. Thise communications have ' reassured the Spanish Government, which. is thus' re- lieved of fears of international compli- cations. | The Cabinet met in Madrid at a late hour to-night. After the meeting Foreign Minister Abaruzza expressed a more hopeful view of the Moroccan situation. He said he thought it not likely that the rebels would capture Fez. Premier Sil- vela confirmed the bellef that no compli- would be canceled for the same reason— delay. Representatives of the company came here and -interviewed Secretary Moody and succeeded in obtaining an- other trial. ‘MISSIONARIES IN DANGER. Christians May Be Slain if Pretender Captures Fez.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Dec. 30.—Conductor J. D. Keene of. the northbound New Or- leans and Cincinnati express, on the Louisville and Nashville road, had a des- perate encounter with a train robber early to-day as the traih was nearing® South .The conductor, who was shot by the robber over the left temple, is,con- fident he killed or mortally wounded the intruder with a bullet from a Winchester rifle. The train reached this city at 3:3¢ a. m. and at 4 o'clock a special train of one coach and an engine with pelice and a number of Louisville and Nashville em- ployes left for the scene of the hold-up. Keene said that while he was passing through the Pullman car as the train was entering the limits of South Louis- ville he was stopped by a man wearing a mask. The robber had jumped from a dark -corner of the car and with a drawn revolver commanded Keéene to'throw up his hands, Instead of doing so, the con- ductor grappled with the man. A pistol ball momentarily stunned Keene and the robber pulled the bell cord, but before the train stopped the highwayman pro- ceeded to rob- the passengers in the sleeper. He leld up Joseph Redford, the Pullman car conductor, and J. E. Moore, the only passenger, taking $%5 from the latter. As the train.slowed down the rob- ber jumped off, but was followed by Co: Louisville. -t scarce .and communication is almost closed.. The Pretcnder himself is reported to-be only twenty miles from Fez. LY 2N Believe Advent of Christians Brought About the Revolt. LONDON, Dee. 31.—The Tangier corre- spondent of the Times says that the.rem- nants ‘of the routed ‘imperial army re- turned to Fez in.a deplorable condition. The Sultan has told a deputation of Fez Moors that he is prepared to die in de- fense.of-the town. The Moors are confident, continues the correspondent, after what passed between Menebhi, who visited London. last year as Moorish Embassador, and Foreign Sec- retary- Lansdowne that in case of neces- sity Great Britain cannot refuse to give the Sultan armed assistance. It is impos- sible to disabuse them of this idea, as they lay the entire responsibility for the present ‘rebellion at Great Britain’s door for fostering European ideas and intro- ducing Christians into the Moorish court. L e e e B e e S S e e ) ductor Keene, who had secured a "Win- chester rifle. The conductor hurried after the robber, firing as he went, ‘and emptied his rifle at the fleeing man. At one of the shots the robber let out a yell of pain. The firing aroused the passengers and caused ‘considerable excitement. Although detectives have been search- ing all day for the train- robber, no trace of him has yet been found. Conductor XKeene is ‘positive he wounded the man, but diligent. search in the neighborhood of the robbery has so far failed to reveal any evidence of the fact that the rob- ber was wounded. Three arrests have been made, but not much lmportnnee is. tached to them. Conductor Keene was removed to a hos- ital. . His wounds, however, are not seri- ous. .

Professor Curschmann of Leipsic has been called here for consultation with the court physicians - regarding the King' condition, which gives much concern to his family. Although diagnosed. as influ- enza, King George’s condition has grown due to excitement over the elopement of the Crown Princess, which, in connection with his great age and weakness, has had a depressing effect on the King's mental condttion.

Coroner’s Jury Develops Startling Facts in Connection With Death of Twenty-Eight Persons in Disaster. ‘WYOMING, Ontario, Dec. 30.—The Cor- orer’s jury, which has been investigating the wreck at Wanstead last Friday ia twenty-eight lves were lost, brought In a verdict shortly before mid- night. The verdict is as follows: ‘“We find that Arthur W. Ricketts was kiiled in the collision at Wanstead on the ¢vening of Friday, December 26, 192. That sald collision was caused by wrong orders being given No. 5 at Watford. ' Responal- bility for the issuance of wrong ordérs was not agreed upon as between Op= erator Carson and Dispatcher Kerr. “That after No. 5 had left Watford by stances leading up to it for the Saxons, among whom the most fantastical stories are in circulation to the detriment of the royal family, especially with reference to the future King. The scandal, according to some opinions, is undermining the peo- ple’s loyalty and respect for the throne. The dynasty being Catholic and the peo- ple Protestant, the affair is being utilized | for sectarian controversy. | The King’s statement doubtless will fol-, low the line indicated in the intimations supplied to the newspapers having court | leanings, published torday, afirming that | the Crown Princess’ sole reason for elop- ing was her relations with Professor Giron and that documentary proofs have been found showing that the elopement had long been in preparation. The storles of ill-treatment on the part of her hus- band, of oppressive court ceremonial and of her fettered existence are classed as inventions. The Crown Princess’ own account of the immediate cause of her flight from | Salzburg, written to an intimate friend, presumably the Princess Therese of Ba- varia, was telegraphed from Munich this morning. It says her father, the Grand intended. to imprisof her either in a lunatic asylum or in an Italian convent. He already had con- sulted the court physician and = several medical authorities in Vienna with the i ing him in shatting her up. Her father, the Crown Princess adds, was giving her no time for deliberation.- He demanded, | first, that she be taken under guard to | Dresden, to apologize to the Crown | Prince, and that she then choose between confinement in a convent or in a mad- | house. . The Crown Princess asks the Ba- varian court to use its influence with the cofrt at Dresden to permit her qnildren| 0 "choose their vocdtion in life freely.

Special Dispatch to The Call NEW YORK, Dec. %0.—New York men have now acquired control of the greater electric power plants of the United States and Canada. According to the census the total elec- tric power in America in 1900 was 311,016 horsepower. Great additions have been made since. The additions on the Amer- ican sidé of Niagara Falls are 55,000 and 65,000 horsepower plants.to be installed as fast as each 5000 horsepower unit is completed, probably by next August. On the Canadian side 110,000 horsepower is in progress of construction for 194 by one company and 50,000 horsepower for another company. At Sauit Ste Marle, Mich., 57,000 additional horsepower has just been turned on. Fifty millions of dollars is a fair esti- mate of the capital invested in these the issuance of wrong orders, we consid- er that the accident could 'have been averted by the operator at Wyoming or Kingscourt Junction had the rallway company ‘had more experienced operators at those points, one being but a bay of 15, st each of which places the dispatcher { baving had ample time to do it and em~ deavored to get the opposing trains stop- ped.” The prinéipal feature of the testimony, to-day was the evidence of James Troyer, | the night operator at Kingscourt Junc- tion, where Dispatcher Kerr endeavored (to stop the express train. Troyer, who is a boy of 16 years, stat- ed ‘that he was on duty for the first time on the night of the accident and that his total previous experience as an oper- ator was for two nights at Strathroy, where he received only a total of four niessages. He gave as a reason for not hearing Dispatcher Kerr calling him for jseven: or eight minutes that he was study- ing the time table and did not recognize the ‘office call, which he had heard only once before. Troyer's extreme youth and apparent incempetency made a deep im~ pression upon the jury. Klondike Geyser Again Breaks Out.
