IF 1 I! 8UI0H PROFIT EIGHT PERIOD OF When Quiet is Restored the French Troops Now Quartered in Casablanca Will be Distributed to Eight Seaports and Act as Police. Paris. Advices received from Casablanca say that the tribal delegates have accepted all the peace conditions fixed by Ceneral Drude and the trouble is now regarded as ended, and that the waring tribesmen will return to their homes. With the submission of all the tribes, which now seems practically assured, it would appear that the mis-- , sion which took General Drude into Morocco has been fully accomplished. Persons acquainted with the country declare that the movement of the tribesmen is over. They are essentially agriculturists, and they are in a. hurry to return to their fields for the first grains. It is understood that when absolute calm is there, the troops now quartered in and about Casablanca will be distributed to eight seaports to inaugurate a police system.

AWFUL WRECK IN Many Women Participate in Demon-ctratloand Loudly Condemn Preeldent of the French Republic for Commuting Sentence of Murderer n Paris. The increasing indignation of the masses against the escape from the guillotine of Solelliant, known as the "monster murderer, whose sentence to death for the atrocious murder of a girl was commuted last week by President to life Imprisonment, was expressed on Sunday in a series of the most curious public manifestations that have occurred in France in a long time. The demonstration, despite the fact that several arrests were made, was almost entirely an orderly one. Many women participated. It was so not much against organized Solelliant as to express the voice oi crime, which lately has Increased to an alarming degree, and which, it is feared, the commutation of the sentence of Solelliant will only stimulate. Several thousands of people were engaged in demonstrations at various points of the city, and especially large was the crowd in the Place St. near which lived little Martha Erbering, the victim of Solelliant. Many of the French loudly condemn President Faillleres for not allowing the law to take Its course, and all agree that the commutation of this sentence betokens the passing forever of the guillotine from France. The entire question of crime will be taken up at the approaching session of parliament, especially as Paris and other large ities are becoming inet.etr.or type of criminals fested known as the Apache,", who la tho secluded sections almost daily malm and rob and sometimes murder their victims.

"The feeling, in spite of the character of the disturbance being much graver than that of San Francisco, Is, favorable to Canada. While greatly regretting that this deplorable incident should occur within a dominion of the British empire, whose ally Japan is, the tone of the press is calm and the public shows no excitement. All are depending upon the justice, friendship and fair play of the people of Canada, fully expecting that measures will be takeu to protect Japanese lives and property. Unsafe Unless Soon Consumed. Brussels. Dr. Henry I. Colt of Newark, N. J-- , strongly opposed in an address on Sunday at the International Milk congress the compulsory pasteurization of milk as a means of effectively improving the supply of milk. Dr. Colt said that to employ pasteurization as an) thing more than a temporary expedient would be undesirable because It would remove the Incentive to the public to compel the producer to accomplish an improvement. Pasteurized milk in hulk is not only intrinsically less desirable than clean raw milk, declared I)r. Colt, but is actually unsafe unless it is consumed hours and is kept within twenty-fou- r at or below 10 degrees centigrade 450 degrees Fahrenheit). Man Engages In Duel With Conductor and is Killed.
