Quoted himself in a manner that re-
f1ected credit upon his political sa-

an automobile to take him to the

S. @. Sewer of Camden, both of them

The only thing to mar the perfect

the excessive heat. With a thermom-

ONLY A BRIBE
16HMAN LOAN TO SULTAN OF
MOROCCO TO PAVE WAY TO
CONFERENCE.
Said That Germany Will Soon Startie
Europe OH ConciIiatory Attitude
Toward France.

Paris, Aug. 25.-(Special) From
a German official source it is learned
that the German loan of 100000
marks to the Sultan of Morocco is
destined to help on the negotiations
for bringing about conference. Re-
Gently the sultan has shown a dspo-
sition to back out of his original propO-
sition on the ground that strong op-
position among his subjects had to be
bought over, which was impossible in
the present state of the Moroccan
exchequer. The explanation of the
cles here is that it is in the nature of
a bribe in order that the conference
may not prove a fiasco, and it is
farther stated that Germany will
shortly astonish Europe by the con-
ciliatory character of her attitude to-
ward France on the Moroccan ques-
ton. 1t is added that Germany viii!
abandon the proposal to submit the
Moroccan finances to the control of
superior European council and will
consent to the policing of Morocco be-
ing organized by France exclusively.
The French and German ministers
at Fee are cordially working together
to bring the sultan to terms, and it
is expected that their labors will ter

Heart failure was the cause of Mr..

Shortly after 3 O'Clock crowd of
friends went up to his room to see
how he was getting along, and found
