with remarkable rapidity. Officer Kas-

transom, when he received a charge
of shot which disfgured his face and
completely riddled his helmet. Then
Officer Hutchins descended from the
roof to- the room window, while the

Enthuses Over Prospects of National
II Assembly.
st. Petersburg, June 22.-The i'm
preston produced by Emperor Mich
-olas' speech Monday at Peterhof to the
delegation representing the all-Russian
congress Of zemstvoists and mayors
which assembled at Moscow is re-
Aected in the joyful acclaim with
which it has been received by the,
Russian press. The question of peace
and the reports that announce that a
battle has begun in Manchuria have
become of secondary importance in
the public mind before the great fact
that the emperor has again pledged
himself to popular representation.
The Russ declares that the history
of representative government in Rus
sia dates from Whit Monday. a hun
dred commissions celebrating schemes
for reform, the paper continues,
could not inspire the people with as
much hope in the future of Russia as
the emperor's words to the delegation
whose members were characterized by.
the reaetionaries as traitors, conspira-
tors and revoIutionists. The fight is
not yet won. The bureaucracy will
not apitulate without a further strug-
gle, but the most important step for
political regeneration has been taken. !"
The Noyoe Vremya thinks that this
renewed assurance direct from the.
throne imposes the obligation on all
classes of society which have the vel
fare OF Russia at heart to unite for
the suppression of the agitation which
is shaking the foundations of the
country. 2

FRANCE AND GERMANY DEFINING
VERBAL ASSURANCES RE-
GARDlNG MOROCCO.
DIFFICULT And DELICATE STAGE
APPREHENSION IN PARIS OVER
POSSIBILITY OF NEW DIFF.
FERENcEs ARISING.

d Paris, June 22.-The FrancO.German
negotiations on the subject of Morocco
have reached q stage where notes are
being exchanged exactly defining the
verbal assurances Premier Rouvier
and Prince Radolin, the German am
bassador here, have given. This is
recognized as difficult and delicate
stage and as finally committing the
two governments to written line of
policy. Therefore public appfehen-
sion has again been somewhat aroused
over the possibility of new differences
during the exchange of notes. The Of
fetal view continues hopeful, but there
Is no desire to be over-confident that
the conference on the question has
been entirely settled.
NJ RouVier's acceptance of the princi-
pie of a conference is conditioned on
Germany fully defining the scope OF
the conference and relieving it from
questions which constitute a menace
to France or the sacrifice of rights
and obligations under other interna.
tional agreements.
The final decision appears to depend
or how far Germany is willing to give
these assurances in writing The Of.
ficials continue to believe that the ex-
change of notes will take considerable
time On account Of having each linn
itation on the conference strictly de-
fined in advance for the purpose OF
avoiding future controversy. In the
meantime more or less of renewal of
the tension is anticipated while the
governments are debating on the terms
of the written agreement.
