REAssURING cABLEGRAMs.
Washington Informed Of Status of Mo-
roccan Negotiations.


Washington, June 19.-Germany and
France will not come to a clash over
Morocco if reassuring official cable
grams reaching washington over night
from two European capitals accurate
ly represent the situation. Two weeks
ago the situation was exceedingly
delicate. 1t has been relieved, how
ever, by the resignation of M. Del
casse. 1t can be announced that the
negotiations at Paris between M. Rou-
vier, the new minister for foreign af-
fairs, and Prince Won Radolin, the Ger.
man ambassador, are progressing slow
ly but with good will on both sides"
and that things between France and
Germany are moving harmoniously
and it will soon be possible to straight
en- out existing tangles." The Wash
ington government is fully informed
about every move and the feeling here
in the highest official circles is not
one Of uneasiness.

potentiaries.

Washington, June 19.-ImpressiYe
in dignity and number will be the
missions which Russia and Japan will
send to the Washington conference,
for although the plenipotentiaries will
be limited to two or three the COM
plete missions, with their advisers, at
taches and secretaries, will each, it is
expected, number twelve or more per
sons. Japan's plenipotentiaries prob
ably will be accompanied by an army
and a navy officer OF high rank, who
will act as military advisers to the
plenipotentiaries. In addition there
will be secretaries and attaches, some
of them from the diplomatic service,
some from the foreign Office and 9th
ers who will act as translators and
recording secretaries. Russia prob
ably will send similar mission,
though perhaps not SO large.
The Washington government will
furnish suitable place for the meet
ing of the mission and as soon as a
date for its convening is fixed arrange
ments for quarters for the two mis-
sions will be made by the Russian
and Japanese envoys here. In addition
to the main conference room retiring
rooms, offices for secretaries and a
reception room will be needed. Either
the capitol or the congressional library
are regarded as perhaps the best suit
ed buildings in Washington and in
view of the indefinite period which the
conference may remain in session it
has been suggested tuat perhaps the
congressional library might be prefer
able to the capitol; for should some
unexpected obstruction arise to keep
the conference in session until late in
the fall the convening of congress j.,
extra session might necessitate the re
moval of the conference elsewhere.
Whatever expenses are incurred Incl
dent to the maintenance of quarters
will, of course, be borne by the Wash
ington government.

wisconsin Commissioner Denounces
Ofd Line Companies.

wisconsin Commissioner Denounces
Old Line Companies.
In the advance sheets of his annual
report on life insurance companies doing
business in Wisconsin. Insurance Com
missioner Host makes the startling state
ment that ''the thirty-seven old-line life
insurance companies transacting business
in the State in 1904 confiscated about
$14,OOO,OOO, which belonged to and
should have been returned to their poll
icy holders"
Wisconsin is one of the two States
of the Union that require life insurance
companies to attach "gain and loss" ex-
hibits to their annual reports.
The commissioner says that these ex-
hibits "show that the reserve released
on surrendered and lapsed policies dur
ing 1904 amounted to $51 III, 449S5,
while the actual sum paid by these COM
panies to policy holders who lapsed and
surrendered their policies was only $751;
1852, 1920"
The commissioner says that s1the load
ing or that portion of the premiums
used for expenses by these companies
in 1904 was $115, 7S9, 2S2. IA, while the
actual expenses of the companies
amounted to $122 1904, 1865, or over
$1,000 600 more than that allowed for
expenses"
With the $14,OO0.O0O retained from
policy holders really entitled to it, sit
was an easy matter for these companies
to exceed their expense loading by over
$7,0OO,O 00," the commissioner declares.
