Paris, April 2l.-Baron Suyematsu,
ex-minister Of the interior for Japan,
in the course of an interview with the

EASTERN NEUTRALITY TO
DELcAssE's RETIREMENT.

Washington, April 21.-Diplomats in
close touch with European chancellor
les hold to the opinion that, Morocco
more than the menace 10 French neu.
trality in the far east, is responsible
for the threatened retirement of M.
Delcasse. II is learned that France
has informed Germany that nothing
could have been further from her in
tentions than to injure German inter
ests in Morocco and even has gone so
far as TO say the French position there
not only furnishes a protection to the
commerce of other nations but insures
rather than threatens the integrity of
Morocco and thereby the maintenance
of the status quo which was the es-
pecial cause of concern TO the Berlin
government.
So satisfied is Germany, il is stated.
with the attitude of France. and 50
different is that attitude from what
Germany believed, that 1t Is believed
here tina. Berlin and Paris are APP
preaching complete accord on the sub
tect. European advices indicate that
Germany's suspicious were aroused by
the apparent unwilllngness in the past
of the French government TO discuss
Morocco. even When the subject was
directly brought up. II is thought here
this change in conditions mas account
for the fac that Delcasse has gone so
far as TO contemplate retirement.
