Delicate Situation.
(By the Associated Press ,


Washington, June 7.-Reassuring
advices reached Washington today
from official sources regarding the
Moroccan negotiations at Paris. While
they indicated that war between Ger
many and France is improbable, in
dictate the extreme delicacy of the sit
uation. Berlin takes a much more
optimistic view of the situation than
Paris. Germany claims that the ne
gotiations are proceeding with the ut
most good will on both sides and with
the probability of an early settlement
of all existing difficulties. Paris also
processes good will and a spirit of eX-
treme friendliness but is unable to
foresee the outcome and is exceedingly
anxious to find out what is back of
Morocco and what are Germanys real
Intentions
This is the light which the situation
has been presented at Washington.
Germany and France, who are re-
framing from any direct effort to draw
in the United States, know informally
that this government does not con-
slider American interests in Morocco
sufficient to warrant any initiative on
the part of the president regarding
the invitation of the Sultan to the
powers to participate in an interna-
tional conference. American accept
ance Of that invitation will be on the
condition that the powers signatory to
the Madrid convention are in favor
of such a conference.
Replying to an inquiry regarding
Moroccan policy, Baron
Speck Won Sternburg, the German
ambassador, today said:
1.-The report that the Emperor's
policy in Morocco is agreed aggressive
is essentially erroneous. GermanyS
part in the complications over Moroc-
co arises to obtain privileges of any
sort except such as are enjoyed by
all of the signatores to the Madrid
but from her absolute re-
fusal to recognize or participate in
any arrangement involving the es-
ia Adjustment of a sphere of influence in
Morocco. Germany stands for the
open door in Morocco as in China, for
the maintenance of the status quo in
both countries"

FIRE IN HER HOLD.
Panic Among the Passengers of the
Kansas CITY.
(Bv the Associated Press.l


New York. June 17-Fire which
started in the hold of the steamer Kan
ras City of the Savannah Line while
she was making her way through the
dense fog off SANDY Hook early today
and caused a panic among her three
score passengers and which was be-
lieved to have been eXtinguished broke
out anew after she had reached her
dock. When the matches were re-
moved after the hold had been filed
with steam for several hours the
flames burst forth and for time re-
sisted every effort the combined land
and water fire fighters could make to
subdue them. Far down in the bot
tom of the hold there is stored a large
quantity of rosin and turpentinc. 1t
was feared that If the flames reached
this, inflammable material a serious
explosion might occur Several thou
sand watermelons which were stored
in the hold were destroyed by the
heat and the cargo Of cotton has been
considerably damaged.
The fire was declared to have been
extinguished after the fire apparatus
had flooded the hold. The barrels of
turpentine and rosin were not reached
by the flames.
The Kansas City had sixty passen-
gers on board in addition to her crew
siderable excitement on the steamer
for a while after the discovery of the
blaze early today while the vessel was
off Sandy Hook. At about tho same
time smoke was seen issuing from the
ventilators and the alarm was sounded.
I'm q moment steam was being inject
ed into the hold which had been
tightly closed, life boats having been
unslung and the fire hose had been
manned. In the meantime the pas
sengers had been aroused. Naturally
there was great excitement when il
was learned that the steamer was on
fire. The officers succeeded in quiet
ing the frightened ones after tugs had
been called to the Kansas City's as
sistance and they took the situation
with comparative GOODNESS during the
remainder of the journey up to the
city.
1t has not been possible to determ-
inc the extent of the damage to the
cargo. The steamer herself was not
seriously damaged.

France automatically for her accept

The undoubted disturbance of feel

not traceable to anything actually ag

sense has now become master of the
continent. and that being so, France
