There is not the slightest cause for

BECOMING ANNOYING.
France Persists in Withholding the
Facts in the Waller Case.
Minister Eustis Denied Interview With Waller
and Access TO Records.

Washington. Aug. 15.-The United
States government is meeting fresh i'm
pedimcnts in its efforts to get at the facts
preliminary to the imprisonment OF ex-
Consul John L. Waller by the French
authorities. The temporizing attitude
Of the French ministry in not furnishing
Ambassador Eustis a copy of the evidence
on which Waller was convicted in NADIA
gascar, has been supplemented by a re
fusal on their part to permit him to visit
Waller IN prison at Marseilles, although
he has made more than one effort to
secure the privilege with a view to ex-
pediting the case.
No explanation of the refusal al be OBJ
tanned, 1t Is said, beyond the existence of
strict prison rules to which Waller Is sub
iccted. AS matters stand, Mr.. EuStis has
encountered at almost every point a seem
ing unwillingness on the part of the
French authorities to assist him in his
investigation of the case.
