MOROCCAN SITUATION AGAIN MORE HOPEFUL | tween French and Ger- man Delegates. ALGECIRAS, Spain, Feb. 23.—The first feeling of depression over Ger- | many’s rejection of the French pro- | posals is gradually wearing off and a slightly more hopeful feeling is observ- | able among the delegates. This is due | largely to the amicable spirit shown | between the French and German dele- | gates during the formal debates on the Morocean bank question. The deadlock | on the question of policing Morocco is unchanged, but the improved feeling | also extends to that question. WASHINGTON, Feb. 23—Embassa- dor White to-day cabled the State De- partment from Algeciras that the con- ference had adjourned until tomorpow after discussing at some length the question of an international bank. A very strong spirit of conciliation ap- peared to prevail. The understanding here is that there Is no immediate pros- pect of a hostile issue between France and Germany on this subject. TROOPS OF SULTAN MUTINY ON TRANSPORT Situation Critical as Result of the Revolt in Arabia. CONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. —An ex- traordinary meeting of the Council of Ministers has been summoned to confer with the Sultan at the Yildiz Palace and deal with the situation at Yemen, Turk- | ish Arabia. ¥ The hitherto localized revolt in Yemen againet Turkish rule has been fanned into a more widespread rebellion by a warlike proclamation of Sheik Mahmud Yohia. A pumber of tribes have joined the rebel sheik, and the emcounters with Turkish troops that have taken place at various points indicate that the situation is crit- jcal. Turkey is embarrassed by the refysal of ihe troops to go to Yemen. Further reinforcements which were on their way there mutinied on board a transport in the Red Sea early this week and refused %o do any duty until they received their arrears of pay. \ —_—e—————— Farmers Are Preparing to Strike.

With Abe Meyer out of the way the six and a balf furlong selling run looked The ring held the gelding at a short price and he defeated Sizz and Dick Wilson; two outsiders, with | perfect case. Lily Golding, a night-before special, captured the five-furlong scramble for and fillies. She went into the ! starter's hands a 9 to 10 ravorite, and reached the wire more than three boat lengths ahead of Sylvia Talbot, a 12 to 1| shot frem the Schreiber stable. Princess Wheeler finished third, with Knapp in the saddle. Old W. B. Gates, installed a 6 to 5 favor- ite for the mile and a sixteenth selling affair, finished absolutely last with Knapp up. Canejo, a 13 to 1 shot, which displaved vast improvement with Rettig on her back, came home an easy winner | over Blackthorn and Jerry Hunt. Rip- per ran fourth. NINE SPOT'S LUCKY WIN. Run the mile and fifty-yard event over half » dozen times and the chances are Nine Spot would not win again. But that sort of post mortem talk has no visible effect on the numbers hung out yester- day. The mare's price was pounded down from 7 and 8 to 4. Clark landed | her first in a drive less than a length in | front of the pacemaker Jackfull. Knapp | picked the worst going he could possibly find without the aid of a telescope for the favorite Corrigan, finishing a bang up third on the best horse by pounds. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Teddy Robinson landed two of the winnérs. Abe Meyer displayed signs of lame- ness warming up and was allowed to be scratched by the judges. All bets were declared off and twenty minutes given for a new book. Nine Spot, it appears, was the most substantially backed horse starting in the fifth event. Orchan made such a dreary, dismal showing, drifting from 2 to 1 to 10 to 1, that his race will probably receive Harry Stover, his owner, had a healthy bet op the gelding to finish in the third position. Usually a champion at the barrier, Dugan, who had the mount on Briers, was day dreaming yesterday when Dick Dwyer pulled the cord. Among other happenings was the de- lightful going over given Frolic by C. ‘Williams in the second speed recital. Delagoa made his first start with the Jennings colors up in the final race. The mare looks in superb condition, and, while she evinced no specia! fond- ness for the muddy going, will take a world of beating next time out. It looks as if a little more discretion might be used In selecting mounts for “Big Bill” Knapp. He is the most cap- able rider at Oakland and has a large following. The producing public is patient, but money does not grow on gooseberry bushes, and when they back a horse ridden by Knapp people natur- ally expect to see the animal make some sort of a showing. It is not the | fanlt of Knapp if he is given the leg up on some rehabilitated old plug, but the rider must stand for much adverse comment. The sport of racing is not tmpervious to assault and if not nursed along tenderly may be relegated to the background, a companion piece to the trotting game. VESSEL THOUGHT LOST COMES INTO PORT Steamer Dora Reaches Port Angeles After Remark- able Trip. PORT ANGELES, Wash., Feb. 23— The little Alaskan steamer Dora of the Northwestern Steamship Company's line, which has been missing for up- wards of fifty-four days and was given up for lost with all on board, limped into port here this afternoon at 3:30 o’clock, having gone more than 2000 miles out of her course and after one of the most remarkable experiences on record of the Pacific Ocean. —_———— Fred Landers a Winner. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Feb. 23.—Fred Landers of San Francisco was given the decision over Maurice Sayers of Milwaukee in a twenty-round fight be- 4ore the Hot Springs Athletic Club to- night. The fight was fast from the beginning to the end of the twenty rounds. Landers proved himself the cleverest in the infighting. 8 ‘Waterbury Is Racket Champion, BOSTON, Feb. 23.—Lawrence Water- bury of New York, the American ama- teur racket champion, defeated Austin Potter of this city today In the national tournament held at the Boston Athletic Association. ———— EXAMINATION FOR POLICE O!

BONERS APPEAR AT A BENEFIT Harry Reilly Stows Ollie Hornbuckle Away in One Round of the Main Event im well, The benefit fights in aid of the stricken Patterson family drew out a fairly good house at Woodward's Pavilion last night. In the main event Harry Rellly, the hard- hitting middleweight, stowed Ollie Horn- buckle away In- the first round with a right and a left to the jaw. Hornbuckle went down to his knees and refused to get up, though he might have done so had his opponent looked less dangerous. Joe Hayes won a well-merited verdict over Smiling Jim Kane in the best bat- i tle of the night. Both men are extremely clever boxers, but Hayes managed to beat Kane to the left-hand lead each time and in this way outpointed his man. | Little Johnny Murphy secured a de: | ciston over Alex MeDonala in four rounds I!ull of fast milling. ! 'The other fights resulted as follows: ! Ea Hawley outpointed John Hogan, Jim Carroll got the decision over Frank Baroni, luadie Daley beat Fred Madden and Joc Buckley was awarded the de- cision over George Cummings. All these fights went the limit of four rounds. Just before the main event Billy Jordan entered the ring and announced that the Manhattan Club, which gave the fights, did not realize much as the crowd was not a3 large as expected. He called for subscriptions and the fight fans responded with $§116. n The promoters were anxious to collect $130 for the aid of the Patterson widow and her six children, so when the amount had been counted Eddie Graney, who refereed the fights, announced he would make up the balance of the purse. This wase greeted with a volley of cheers for —_—————— Golfer Moore in Good Form. LOS ANGELES, Feb. 23.—Nat F.

There was rather a contradiction in the results, as all the first places were taken by Lick and Lowell swimmers except the relay, which was won after an exciting struggle by Polytechnic. The latter school ran up its score of eighteen points by taking all of the second or third places. Lowell scored fourteen points and Lick twelve. The real stars of the night were T. Laine of Lowell High School and George Bromley of Lick. The former won both the distance events, estgblishing a world's interscholastic record of 6 minutes and 40 seconds in the quarter-mile. The former league record was 7:02, held by H. A. J. McKenzle. Bromley won the 100 and 220 yard dashes easily. Laine has a big, easy style of go- ing, which seems positively lazy. He goes through the water like a well-handled racing boat, without a check in speed be- tween strokes. There was some unusually clever diving by members of the Olympic Club. Those who appeared were John A. Hammer- smith, T. Bacon, J. Wise, O. Walfish and C. B. Riordan.

UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE PLANNED IN AUSTRIA Bill Introduced Giving All Citizens of Certain Age Right to Vote. VIENNA, Feb. 23.—Five bills embody- ing a scheme for universal suffrage and other electoral reforms were introduced in the lower house of the Austrian Parlia- ment today by the Premter, Baron Gauteh von Frankenthurn. The Premier was sub- jected to moisy interruptions by pan-Ger- mans while explaining the details of the plan, but the majority of the Deputies heartily applauded his speech. The bills provide for the election of 455 Deputles to the-lower house: Every Aus- trian 24 years old and domiciled in a con- stituency for at least a year will be en- titled to vote, and every one possessed of Austrian citizenship for at least three years will bé eligible to election to the lower house. Plural voting is prohibited, and a division of electoral districts is de- signed so as to give the Germans 205 rep- resentatives, the Slavs 230, the Italians 1§ and the Roumanians 4. The bill amending the standing orders of the House provides for the suspension of disorderly members for a period not exceeding one week. ‘While none of the parties in Parliament is inclined to oppose the principle of the suffrage bill, all of them are dissatisfied with the proportionate representation al- lotted them, even the Slavs, whose abso- lute majority over the Germaws becomes more assured, being discontented. In view of the discontent with the proposed meas- ure the Governmént probably will have difficulty in securing the two-thirds ma- jority required for the passage of the bill. —_————————— STORY OF PREMIER WITTE'S RESIGNATION NOT CREDITED It Is Now Probable That the Minister of Communichtions Will Retain His Portfolio.
