of band of a dozen or more wealthy
Sicilians, included among whom were
his two brothers, who for daring to

closely allied with the Malta were
driven across the seas, pursued with a
relentlessness that has been hindered
by neither time nor distance and sys-
tematieally put to death whenever an
opportunity to escape detection offered.

PARIS, Oct 14.-The French govern
ment continues silent concerning the
alleged revelations Of Great Britain's
offer of naval and military aid to
France If Germany assumed bellig-
erent attitude over Morocco. In the
meantime the newspapers add new
phases to the disclosures. The Figaro
gives detailed version even more
sensational than the previous alleged
disclosures of the Matin. 1t says that
the previous report of Great Britain
offering to mobilize her navy and land
British troops in Germany is not cor
rect, but that the actual occurrence
was as follows:
Before the Moroccan crisis became
acute the British government made
three distinct overtures to learn If
France was disposed to conclude a
treaty of defensive alliance. France
declined to consider the question.
Later when the Moroccan crisis be-
came acute Paul Cambon, the French
ambassador to Great Britain. reopened
the question and obtained a verbal as
surance from Foreign Secretary Lans-
downe OF Great Britain's effective con-
course in the event of a confagration.
M. Cambon was thereupon able to an
nounce to. M. Delcasse (who was then
foreign minister) that If casus foe

iterate her assurance in writing. The
German ambassador in London, Count

surances and informed Berlin. EN-
peror William
Decided on Counter Move
and made Italy the medium of its exc
cution. He informed Italy that any
treaty whereby Great Britain gave
France military support relative to
Morocco would constitute casus belli.
The Figaro asserts that this amounted
to an indirect uItimatum and that the
Italian government communicated the
situation to NJ. Barrere, the French
ambassador to Italy, who informed
Paris June 4. Immediately thereafter
M Delcasse resigned lJune 81 as a
