ducing this one, and the task involved
great difficulties. 1t was packed with
care and every precaution to guard
against breakage was taken when it
was unpacked and set up. When it was
finally in place on the building the men
in charge breathed sigh of relief. The
graduated scale over which the tube
is conducted is the work of some of the
experts sent here from Rochester, the
home of thermometers Of all classes.
The manufacturers of the big ther-

that is much smaller in fact, is only
about half the size of the Summer

Ambassador at Berlin fully as amicabe as ever.
Referring TO Emperor William, he remarked on
reaching Paris that it seemed incredible that
such a charming man with such a winning
manner could be at heart an enemy of France.
Without having any official character, the Ber-
lin visit OF Baron de Courcel is believed TO have
been undertaken with the object Of ascertaining
what inducements German diplomacy would
cept TO modify the demands Of her delegates
at Algeciras and to fathom the secret motives
that underlie those demands According TO the
most trustworthy information. Baron de Cour-
eel leaves matters unchanged, for he has moth
ing TO report TO Prime Minister RoUvier beyond
the exceedingly fattering courtesy shown him
by the Emperor and by the Chancellor
FRENCH NOT TO YIELD.
The French government is determined not 10
yield either on the question of the police or
upon that Of the bank. Indeed. popular feeling
this point is now unrnistakable that any
further concession on the part of the French
delegates at Algeciras would be the signal for
the downfall OF the Rouvier Cabinet. It becomes
daily more and more apparent to the French
mind that what Germany really wants is a foot
hold in Morocco and a port on the Atlantic
Coast, which would serve at once as a perpetual
menace TO France IN Algters and as link in
the chain for maintaining Germany's CONNER
cial ambitions in Brazil and Argentina The
Emperor has set his heart upon this scheme,
but is fully aware that TO insist upon IT now
would mean war with France and England.
and as he neither wishes is prepared
for such an event the next best thing is to
keep matters open by falling back upon the
status quo. which would be the only result Of
the AIgeciras conference. for as matters now
stand, If that conference were knocked
into a cooked hat IL would by means follow
that would ensue.
