Frances Good Offices Asked.
Through Ambassador Porter Secretary
Hay has requested the French government
to exercise it's good offices toward securing
the release of Perdicaris, the kidnapped
American in Morocco. The French govern
ment agreed to undertake this task, and
because Of It's close association with the
various elements in Morocco 1T is believed
here that it can accomplish more than any
other government.
The British government is also acting
with great energy in behalf of young Var
ley, the stepsOn of Perdicaris and a British
subject, and the British authorities are in
communication with the United States gov
eminent in that pursuit.
Admiral Chadwick Is not expected at
present to land a force from his fleet to
pursue the brigands. but it is stated posi-
lively that If Rasouli executes his threat
of killing his captives the United States
government will insist that he be run down
and executed at any cost.
Considered by the Cabinet.
Careful consideration was given by the
cabinet today in the matter. Secretary Hay
presented the latest Information which has
been received by the State Department from
Consul Gumnlere. at Tangier. and on the
basis of that information the matter was
discussed thoroughly. Members of the cab
met manifest great reticence in talking
of the subject for publication. but it is
known that Secretary Hay presented some
matters relating to the case of the utmost
Importance. Secretary Moody said that no
report of the case had yet been received
from Rear Admiral Chadwick, although one
might come at any time 1t was stated
that the action of the navy in the matter
had been taken at the instance Of the State
Department.
Aside from the Perdicaris case no matter
of first Importance was taken up by the
cabinet, although some departmental mat
tiers were considered.
