the Parnells had nine points. without al
lowing their opponents to score
1T was one-sided contest, as the win

the finer points of the game. The losers
were completely baff1ed at times by the
clever manner in which the sParnell men
dribbled the ball up the field and passed
1t to their team mates But few times
during the game did the McBrides have
the ball near their opponents goal. At the
end of the first half the Parnells had
sent the ball sailing over their opponents
goal six times. In the next half they
scored three more goal-
Many substitutes were played on the
Mcbride team, as some of their best men
did not show up. This probably accounts
for their poor showing. The following

office. This distinetly showed that the
diplomatic course has not reached =
point of rupture. Moreover it is known
that the exchanges between PriRee Won
Radolin and the French premier which
seemed on the point Of breaking yester-
day are again brought within normal
channels. At the same time alarmists
reports had thoroughly aroused public
apprehension that grave eventualities
are possible, If not imminent.
There is not the slightest evidence.
however that France is PROFOUNDLY NOV
ed or that the people seriously appre-
hend war and none Of the exciting
scenes that proceed the Franco -Prussian
war are occurring. The German embassy
is one Of the most serene spots in the
French capital and it has not been nee
essary to station even police guard
there.
There were indications, too, that Pre-
mier Rouvier welcomed these assurances
as permitting France TO consider the
acceptance Of a conference Of the pow
ers without any sacrifice Of national self
respect. The idea that France is being
driven by Germany is deeply wOunding
to the national pride and Germany has
ben quick to avert this obstacle to the
solution Of the question. As the matter
no wstands, Germany is freed from the
proposed international conference and
from its possible menacing and humil
iating features, and thus presented
France is disposed to consider the prop
osition. If accepted by France the pres
ent cloud will blow over, for England'i
opposition to the conference is merely
to strengthen the hand of France and
not because England has further polit
ical aims in Morocco.
