OPINION OF DIPLOMATS.
Believe That Moroccan Affairs Are

WASHINGTON. April 21.-Diplo-
mats in close touch with European
Chancellories hold the opinion that
Morocco more than. the menace 10
French neutrality in the Far East is
responsible for the threatened retire
tnent of NJ. Delcasse. the French Min
ister of Foreign Affairs. 1t is learned
that France has Informed Germany
that nothing could have been further
from her Intentions than 10 injure
German interests in Morocco and even
has gone so far as to say that the
French position there not only fur
nishes a protection to the commerce
of other nations. but insures rather
than threatens the integrity Of Mo-
rocco, and thereby the maintenance
of the status quo, which was the espe-
cial cause of concern to the Berlin
Government. so satisfied is Germany.

PARIS. April 2l.-The announcement
OF II Delcasses intention 10 resign as
Foreign Minister was but one Of many
incidents in q day OF much anxiety
throughout the Government quarters
Following close upon the heels Of the
ca-rrl5-affors with Germany over
Morocco. the Franeo-Ja japanese indict-
rnent suddenly assumed serious proper
lions and unusual energy was shown IN
preventing its embroiling France in
complications in the Far East In or
der 10 secure definite cooperation be-
tween three departments Of the Gov
eminent, namely. naval. colonial and
foreign q conference was held this aft
eruOon between leading representatives
of each department This brought
z bout z clear understanding regarding
the measures necessary for the main
tensnce Of neutrality Of Indo-Chinese
waters, and orders were sent 70 Gov
ernor General Beau 10 specifically re-
port the exact location Of the Russian
Pacific squadron and whether it had
or had not Withdrawn from French
waters.
Communications with St Petersburg
led 70 orders being transmitted by the
Russian Government to Vice Admiral
ROjeswensky TO vigorously respect the
neutrality Of French waters. It was
even stated that Foreign Minister
LamsdorH would carry the question
before Emperor Nicholas in order to
assure complete respect
Probably the most significant devel-
10 y,e
adopted was the receipt Of q dispatch
from Saigon saying that imperative or
eers had been given for the disarna-
nent OF the Russian cruiser Diana
which sought refuge in the harbor Of
Saigon eight months ago for the pur-
pose OF repairs. The main portion Of
the Diana's machinery must now be
handed over 10 the French naval au-
thordes al Saigon.
The anticipated debate in the Cham
Der OF Deputies OF the question Of neu-
trslity was postponed owing to the
Delcssse announcement The only ref
erence 10 the subject was the inquiry
by Deputy Deloncle spd the brief reply
from Premier Rouvier, who said:
Formal. precise and repeated orders
have been given our agents in Indo-
China 70 assure the absolute neutrality
Of France in Indo-Chinese waters"
II was stated al the Foreign once
late this afternoon that no represen-
tati0ns of any kind had been presented
by Great Britain concerning neutrality
At the same time il is anticipated that
some such representations will be
made. The fact that the British En-
bassador, Sir Francis Bertie, has given
Up his Easter holiday and viii return
70 Paris tonight after a conference
with Foreign Secretary Lansdowne
appears 10 support this view. How
ever. the cordial relations existing be-
tween France and Great Britain would
doubtless modify any representations
80 as 10 relieve them from serious sig
nificance. Anything like an energetic
protest from Great Britain at This
time would deeply wound France. who
relies on the Anglo French entente as
z counterpoise TO Germany's nenaces

Woolfe and Miss Lillian l., Smiley

j. and w. A. Reed, of this county.
He had been living at Pembroke un-
til recently. when he removed to
Nashville. He is an electrician, and
is rising rapidly in his chosen vo-
cation. This was not, by any means,
an elopement, but simply their
choice. They were accompanied by

H. Smiley, and Miss Marble Stephens,
a very popular young lady of that
reighborhood, and Mr.. Pitt Griffin
and Miss Ledna P'Pool, of Nashville.

man and wife, closing with a sweet
and earnest prayer, after which all
repaired to the din n room, where
a beautifully decorated table, groan-
ing with its great load of good things
awaited them. The young couple
were the recipients of many beau

couple repaired to their newly furn-
ished home, at No. 1045 Scovel St.,

crates will soon be completely re-
and united, as near as can.
be, as they were during the ser
vice. This reorganization will be
hurried so as to enable th9 members
to attend the reunion of the United
Confederate Veterans in New Orleans
in May, and enter the reunion as
separate and distinct organization,
having a place as such in the parade.
Two meetings were held in Nash
vile Monday, the first for discussion
of the projected movement, and the
latter for definite action in way of
beginning preliminary arrangements
detailing officers to be in command,
and selecting quarters at New Or
leans for the meeting of the cavalry
corp. A majority Of the surviving
members of the staff were present,
among them being Capt. Henry Tyler,
of Hickman, KY. The officers de-
tailed to command will hold the
same rank as they did in the war
being as follows: Capt. Henry A.
Tyler, Lieutenant General Command
ing, and Col. w. A. Collier, Major
General Commanding. The com
manders of the different brigade
under Gen. Forrest, Gen. H. B. Lyon
of Kentucky; Col. w. Ruckar, o
Birmingham. Ala, and Col. Rober
Mccullough, of Missouri, will oc
cupy the same rank, as well as a
other surviving officers. This wa
the initial step in the movement,
being planned to hold a humble
of meetings from now on looking t
the perfecting of reorganization.

A dispatch from MadisOnville says:
"Hon. Frank Rives, recently elected
State Senator from Christian and
Hopkins counties. when he announc-
ed his candidacy agreed to abide by
the direction of majority of the
Democratic voters, in a primary to
be held after the election, in the
matter of voting for United States
Senator, and Hon. Munnell Wilson,
elected Representative, did likewise.
Now, therefore, there is movement
on foot to hold this senatorial pri-
mary at an early date" Our infor-
nation is that Mr.. Rives agreed to
carry out the wishes of his constit-
uents. 1t is the general opinion
though that this can be arrived al
in some less troublesome and expen
sive way than in a primary election

The bid for popularity which the as

Even If the association style game does
not supercede the college Rugby game

faces and manning for life, then there
is quite certain to be quite a modifica-

are loath to give up the game which

There are still many an old score o.
