ASKS AMERICA TO

Moorish Government Gives the
United States Chance to See
the Bickering.

Washington. June 2O.-The state de-
4partment today received a dispatch
from Mr.. Gummere. minister to Moroc-
government Of Morocco that the United
States participate in conference Oh
the affairs Of that country. The re.
quest is similar to that which has been
sent to other governments.
The reply Of the United States will
be discussed at the cabinet meeting, but
it is not expected that any determine
ton will be reached. because the United
States will first desire to know the
scope and purpose of the conference
Other governments have replied in sub
stance that if all of the great powers
participated, they also would accept.
The interests Of the United States
It is said, are only commercial, while
those OF Germany and France are po
litical. Consequently, the United States
does not have such interest in the con
ference as the governments Of Europe.
