Paris, Oct. tt2S. You 58have already
learned by cable that all our Moroccan
difficulties, have disappeared, that the
program DR., drawn up BY Germany and
France has been accepted by the sultan
and that:it will in q few days. be passed
upon by the rest Of Europe at a meet

peared before the powers as collabora-
tors-you might almost say, as allies.

quintet. Her presumption In the mat
ter is in keeping with her development
as naval power, for it is self-evident
that from the moment she had a navy
she would interest herself in colonial
matters generally. It is hardly neces-

Loubet in Madrid. 49, *
The enthusiasm that has character
lied the visit Of M. Loubet to Madrid
and the extraordinary courtesies ex-
tended to the visiting municipal coun-
cillors in London are in the nature of
a counter demonstration to Germany IS

England nor Spain is any more pleased
than we are ourselves at the appear
ance in the Moroccan question Of an

kaiser would have to perform but few
more world-plays like that of Tangie1

Moreover, it would seem that the
compliments showered upon M. Loubet
in Spain have rather surpassed the
amenities which usually characterize
such peregrinations. He was treated
as a friend and the king promised tc

French Solons in London.

While the chamber is working on til

bill favorably as it stands and in a
