DISCUSSIONS IN COUNCIL

CHICAGO. June 24-The teamsters'
strike again took a serious turn today
when President Shea made threats Of
ordering a general walk-out Of $4,000
union teamsters in the city, and the
employers made a guarded statement In
which IL was minated that none of the
present strikers would be reinstated.
Internal dissensions in the union
ranks were precipitated by the disband-
ing of the joint council strike committee,
with a caustic report accompanying the
designations of ten members to the
central body al its meeting tonight.
The international executive board went
into an executive session in which II is
known that matters of vital Importance
TO the general condition of the organiza-
tons future were discussed
Unofficially. 1t was declared that Presi-

Cambon Keeps in Touch
With British Ministry

LONDON, June 24-Cambon, the
French ambassador. advises with Lord
Lansdowne continually. and Lans-
downe is in constant communication
with Mr. Balfour From time to time
the whole cabinet is taken into the
confidence OF the negotiations. Com
plete unanimity prevails. AS quickly
as possible after Premier Rouvier re-
ceives Chancellor Won Buelow's views
Of the French case, these views with
the French attitude toward them are
communicated to Lord Lansdowne
1t is becoming steadily more difficult
20 ascertain the intentions of the Brit
ish government owing to its extreme
solicitude to accommodate the position
OF this country 10 the exigencies Of
France.
Men in the confd dence OF Downing
street speak with growing reserve lest
their remarks should be used to scare
the French and render Rouvier's policy
fatally flexible under German pressure.
British Policy Explained
However. It can be authoritatiYely
stated that the British government is
counseIing France to shape its policy
on the theory that Germany cannot
afford to provoke 9 general war TO en-
force the kaiser's peculiar views re-
garding Morocco.
If he wants a reasonable settlement,
says the British government. give it to
him. II he presses his belated demand
for wiping out treaties long since es-
tablished. tell him he expects more
than the national dignity of either
France or England Will permit The
helping hand of England, however, does
not stay the panicky feeling on the
Paris bourse, and r-ntes are ready to
tumble TO a dangerously low figure If
the feeling of nervousness is not aliayed
instantly.
The publication in the French papers
cf maps showing the relative positions
and strength of the German and French
armies along the frontier is considered
a most unwise and aSgravating thing

September. It was announced that the
