APPEAL TO BANDIT CHIEF

Tangier Morocco. June 2.-The italian third
class cruiser DogaH arrived here this morning
delegation of chiefs OF the Angerra tribe
has started from here to make a personal appeal

Perdicaris and Varlev "in order to prevent the
permanent occupation Of Morocco by foreigners
opposing the Moslem faith, and the expulsion OF
native Mahometans." This mission Is consid-
cred important as the NIahometan chiefs unite
in appealing TO RaisUu not to endanger their
religious supremacy in Morocco. The French
government depends much on the appeal 10
Aiahometan sentiment.
The natives are greatly excited by the arrival
OF so many foreign warships. They call all for
eigners ''Roumis." meaning infdels. and they
fear the "RouIuis'' are about to make a united
effort to drive out those who are OF the Ma
hometan faith.

ANGLO-RUSSTAN PACT.
St. Petersburg Looks Upon One as
-Britain's Craft4 Game.

St Petersburg, June 2.-The comment here on
the settlement Of the Russian-Canadian fishery
dispute is significant. The agreement IS vel
coined by the Russian press as evidence of the
increasing probability Of an AngIo-Russian al
lance. the papers pointing out that public opin-
ion In Great Britain France and Russia is be-
coming more favorable the war. instead Of prov
ing an obstacle TO an alliance. serving as one Of
the arguments in its favor
More significant still is a strong intimation in
the ''Novostf' that a commercial treaty be-
tween the two countries VIII pave the way TO
purely commercial rapproachement The paper
makes the point that without such commercial
treaty any political agreement would be very
Irail.
Though It is impossible to ascertain at this
time whether the question of such commercial
treaty has actually been taken up, the possi-
bnity Of its being the next step in the pro-
gramne toward a political agreement arouses
the keenest interest in diplomatic circles where
It is considered fraught with most far-reachng
Importance The United States probably viii be
the chief loser by such a treaty. America has
already suffered from the diferential duties
levied against her IN retaliation for the IMPOSE
ton Of a countervailing duty on Russian sugar,
imports OF American agricultural machinery.
etc. which a few years ago were very large
having fallen almost to nothing. With tariff
concessions Great Britain is bound to succeed to
all this trade with its big potendalities for the
future
The impression is growing that Great Britain
is playing a shrewd game for big stakes com
raercially as well as politically. and that while
a complete agreement would be mutually ad-
vantageous to both Russia and Great Britain, 1t
would be at the expense of the United States In
both these directions

Paris, June 3.-The correspondent of the
Echo de Paris" at St. Petersburg relegraphs:
Viceroy AIexief and General Europatkfn hav-
ing asked the Emperor to settle their dispute
his majesty summoned a council of war. in
GLIDING War Minister SakharOf Marine Min
lister Avellan and Minister Plehve of the IN
terror. The council debated for several hours at
Tsarskoe Selo.
/ have reason to believe that the necessity Of
preserving the naval base at Port Arthur and
the loss Of prestige that the fall of Port Arthur
would entail were the arguments which pre-
vailed in the council. General Kuropatkin has,
therefore been advised TO attempt to relieve the
fortress, but to act with the greatest prudence.
A general whom interviewed the subject Of
the council said
IF KurOpatkin is weak enough to advance he
will commit a serious blunder. The number of
his troops is insufficient The conditions under
which he acts are unfavorable- He might meet
an almost irrepara bic reverse, and Port Arthur
be further from relief than ever. If try to
relieve Port Arthur we viii be doing exactly
what the Japanese hope"
