Aug. 5.-In a long state ment to a newspaper man, Ralsull, the bandit, who is holding Caid Sir Harry MacLean a prisoner, blames he treuch ery of the Sultan's government for his capture of Sir Harry. Raisuli says that in the course of his negotiations with the man who is now his prisoner, pre vious to his capture, he explained his grievances and Sir Harry promised him a safe conduct if he would go to Fez and lay his troubles before the Sultan, who would remedy them. He accepted this offer but, while he was arranging for the Journey, government troops. In stigated by the Sultan's bad advisers, Sidi Mohammed, the Moroccan Minister of War, and General Bagdani, chief of the Sultan's army, plundered and de vastated his property at Zilat and cap tured some of his relatives. In the meantime Sir Harry MacLean had shown him a letter from the Sul tan promising him safe conduct, but be had also secured a copy of another letter written by the Sultan to the Min ister of War, instructing him to at tack Raisuli vigorously unless he went to Fez. This, continued Ralsull, con vinced him of the treachery of the Sultan, and he therefore made a pris oner of the English Cald. Sir Harry, Raisuli declares, is per fectly safe In his hands. He did not capture MacLean for money but for Justice, and this he hopes to secure by calling the attention of the British government to his wrongs. HOSTILE TRIBES DRIVEN BACK Casa Blanca Relieved, but Other Towns Are Threatened. TANGIER, Aug. 5. The latest advices from Casa Blanca state that the most hostile Moorish tribesmen surrounding the town have retired after a bloody fight with the natives Inside. Signals have been arranged by which the French cruis er Galaee will bombard the native quar ter of Casa Blanca in the event of a re newal of the attacks on Europeans. The French cruiser Du Chayla has gone to Mazagan, off the west coast of Mo rocco, in answer to the appeals of Euro peans there who reported that the natives were greatly excited, and that it was feared that there would be a duplication of the recent massacre at Casa Blanca. Advices from Rabat, west coast of Mo rocco, under date of August 1; were re ceived here today and reported the situa tion there as being disquieting. The nelgh orlng tribes were moving around the town and the French residents declared that unless a warship was sent to Rabat they would leave that place, as the number of troops guarding the town was inade quate. Mohammed el Torres, the representative of the Sultan for foreign affairs, has pre sented the excuses of the government to the Italian Minister for the murder of Italian subjects at Casa Blanca.

Aug. 6. "More than one university today is in danger of being misunderstood because of the few trust magnates who are giving millions of dol lars to them," declared Henry Mc Cracken, chancellor of New York Univer sity, in an address delivered at the Sum mer school of the university today. "Such universities are in danger of be ing reckoned the purchased servants of a narrow caste. The sure and efficient way to escape this suspicion is for them to rid themselves of idle undergraduates who make no end of trouble, and to devote their money and energy ,to giving instruc tion and inspiration to the public teachers throughout the land. In a word, let the university cease to serve so largely the unprofitable few and rather serve the productive and industrious many. "I admit that the other policy of secur ing a multitude of undergraduates, among them the sons of the very rich, and of catering to their tastes, builds up endow ments more surely. But patriotism com mands to give aid to the men and women on whom refits the weight of responsi bility of assimilating ,the children of the millions of immigrants who come to us every year."

They decline to discuss their plans other than to say they are gather ing data that will be useful at the proper time. "That's only railroad talk," said a num ber of local lumbermen yesterday when asked If they had read the statement is sued by the transcontinental lines to Jus tify their action in ordering an advance iri the rates. "We expect the railroad companies to fight vigorously for Increased rates," said one' lumber manufacturer yesterday, "and they evidently -consider that the statement issued from St. Paul will strengthen their position. The condition in 1893, assigned as the reason for reducing the rates, ex ists to a more marked degree today, and surely does not warrant restoring for mer charges. It is explained by the rail roads that in 1893 they had an excess of east-bound empty cars on account of the steady increase in west-bound traffic. If anything, the growth of this section is greater now than ever before, and the shipment, of building materials to the Coast from the East was never larger. "We are not going into this fight blind ly. We know what we are up against, and are not surprised at the outset to see the railroad companies undertake to es tablish a case and Justify their position."
