FRANCE DOUBTS
 GERMANY'S FAITH
THINKS EMPERoR's EFFORTS TO GET CERTAIN CONCESSIONS FROM THE SULTAN IS ExHIBI. TON OF WRONG SPIRIT.

Paris July 31.-The activity of the Ger man commercial agents and officials with reference to the Moroccan situation. is causing grave doubts on the part of the French people as to Germanys good faith.
 Despite the decision of the two govern ments not to interfere with the status quo until the international conference meets. the Germans are trying their ut most to extract commercial concessions from the sultan, hoping thereby to strengthen Germany's position at the con ference. Inquiries at well-informed circles show that 1t is not believed that Ger many Is officially authorizing these ef forts to secure concessions, and dfficul ties are likely to arise from this action with consequent protraction of negotia- tions. Count von Tattenbach- Ashold an- pears to be furthering the efforts of inc German agents which already have re- suited in securing a concession for inc construction of wharves. while strong ef. forts are being made to obtain a cah,s concession. and the acceptance of c.r- man loan.
 Such proceedings. 1t is believed. do not tend to hasten friendly understandtne but the approaching interview betwaan Premier Rouvier and Prince von R.do- lin, the German ambassador to Erov,as is expected to result in the dispef;in~ {, doubts and the completion of a nafIsfa a1. tory arranger II

CLEVELAND RACES
 STOPPED BY MAYOR
Johnson Refuses to Allow Any
 Pool Selling
TURFMEN ARE SCATTERED
GIenville Track Will Probably Be Abandoned and Directors May Divide it Up Into Building
 Lots.

Cleveland July 31.-.The Grand Circuit races, which were to have started here today. were declared off agtcr the proc selling would not be. permitted. This an- nouncement coming at the last moment. created consternation among horsemen, and the members of the Cleveland Driv- ing Park association. At the Grand Cir cult meeting here last year, pool selling was prevented by the authorities of Glen vile with resulting loss to the driving park association. When Glenville was annexed to the city, it was hoped that pool selling would be permitted. although no announcement to that effect could be obtained from Mayor Johnson.
 Early today Chief Kohler of the local police department, acting under direction of Mayor Johnson, called upon Secretary Deitrich of the driving park association, and informed him that pool selling would not be permitted.
 A meeting of the officers of the asso- citation was called immediately and it was decided to finsh the M. & M. Consolation race. which was finished at Detroit, and then to abandon the meeting. This was done and all gate admission fees were refuneded, together with the entrance fees of horsemen. 1t was at first intend ed to transfer the races to Buffalo, but telegraph inquiry revealed the fact that Buffalo would not permit the transfer be- cause of interference with the regular race meet there. The horsemen therefore have scattered, some of them going to Buffalo and elsewhere and some of them remaining at Glenville to work.
 The third heat of the unfinished M. & M. Consolation purse (2:2i trot), unfinish- ed at Detroit. was won by Miss Inlaw, time 2:11A.
 Get Away, second; Emily Letcher, third
 Inquiry among the directors of the driv- ing park association seems to indicate a general intention of abandoning the Glen vile track with a prospect of it's being allotted in building lots.

WILSON AND ROSEN
 POSE FOR PICTURE
Both Call on President at
 Oyster Bay
ROSEN WILL ESCORT WITIE
Senior Russian Peace Plenipotentary is Expected to Arrive Tonight or Tomorrow Morning-6aron Has
 Little to Say.

Oyster Bay L. l., July 3t.-Baron Ro- sen, who recently succeeded Count Cas- sini as Russian ambassador to the United States and who is -s.ssociated with NJ. Witte, chairman of the committee of ministers as one of the envoys to the Washington peace conference, was guest today of the President and Mrs. Roosevelt at luncheon. He remained at Sagamore Hill for several hours, but during only part of that time was he in conference with the President. The ann bassador's visit to the President was for the purpose of making arrangements to present informally his conferee on the peace conference. M. Witte. who is ex- pected to arrive in this country from Europe tomorrow evening or Wednesday. The desire of Baron Rosen is to present M. Witte to President Roosevelt precisely as Baron Komura was presented last week by Minister Takahira, in advance of the formal reception which the President will tender the peace envoys and suites on board the cruiser Mal1ower next Sat- urday.
 Baron Rosen arrived in Oyster Bay at 1210 this afternoon by train from New York. He was met at the station by confidential messengers of the President. who conducted him to an open surrey which the President had sent to the sta- tion for him and Secretary Wilson of the department of agriculture, who arrived on the same train. The ambassador and the cabinet officer did not meet, however, until they entered the carriage. Rain vas falling slightly as the visitors left the train, but the shower passed over |, quickly and In few minutes the visitors were being driven to Sagamore Hill
 It was arranged by the President and Baron Rosen that M Witte should pay his informal call next Friday He will be accompanied to oyster Bay by Am- bassador Rosen. They will be the guests at luncheon of the President and Mrs Roosevelt, and will have opportunity dur ing the afternoon to discuss the pending peace negotiations. Baron Rosen returned to New York on the same train leaving Oyster Bay at 4:30 D. m. He declined to discuss his interview with the President, saying that 1t would be improper for him( to make public any diplomatic natter He consented cordially to pose with Sec retary Wilson for photograph.

Emperor Nicholas Said Exactly
 the Right Thing
MOSCOW MERCHANTS ACTIVE
They Will Never Consent to Having Russia Submit to Onerous Peace. Express Confidence in Gen.
 eral Lnevitch.

St. Petersburg. August 1.-t2:S0 a. m)- Emperor Nichols martial message to the orenburg clergy, in which he expressed his determination never to conclude peace dishonorable to Russia or unworthy of her greatness, and which was gazetted yesterday, has struck a responsive chord in many quarters, even among the friends of peace.
 The Emperor's words. however by no means bear out the construction placed upon them by the jubliant war party, nor do they at all exclude the idea of sue cessful termination of the approaching negotiations at Portsmouth, but they eer- tainly strengthen the militant spirit aroused by the cabled versions of the Sato interviews, and the cold figures rep resenting the supposed extent of the con- tribution to be demanded by Japan. Many voices have been raised to urge the gov ernment to resist too onerous conditions. For example the merchants of Moscow, who are largely old believers, and who control much of the wealth of the nation. witch to express confidence that the army will defend Russia's honor and that a humilitatng peace will not be made.
 While many influences tending to unify the nation if it should be necessary to continue the war, are evidently in oper- ation, no disposition is shown to antiei- pate the results of the peace conference, nor to make the task of the commissions CTS more difficult. and M. Witte's presence at the head of the mission is regarded as guarantee that acceptance of a basis of peace will be found if possible.
