US. TO WORK FOR PEACE
Reported Instructions to Moroccan
Conference Members.

Washington, Jan. 5.-Ambassador White and
Minister Gummere have received from the state
Department full and final instructions for their
guidance as representatives of America in the
approaching Moroccan conference at AlgecLras.
It may be stated on authority that these in
structions were drawn with special reference TO
the attainment of two objects-frst. the main
tenance of the open door in Morocco. and, sec
ond, the exercise of good offices by this country
directly in the conference to smooth away as
perities. and prevent the development of fric-
ton between France and Germany that might
jeopardize the worlds peace. These objects
attained. it is said. this country has no partic-
ular concern with the political future of Mo
rocco. At least it is intimated that no such
concern will be manifested in the conference by
the American delegates If it is possible for them
to maintain position of neutrality.
Touching the execution of any agreement
reached by the conference for the regulation of
Moroccan affairs it is said that it will probab bly,
be sufficient for the powers concerned merely
TO lay before the Sultan of Morocco the text OF
their agreement, and it will be for him to carry
it out.
What will happen in case one power refuses
to abide by the conclusions reached cannot now
be foretold, and it is believed that in this con-
tingency further instructions will be necessary
for the guidance of the American delegates. 1t
is certain that there is no intention on the part
of this government to enter into any entangling
alliances which would involve the use of force. in
combination with other powers, to carry out the
agreement. but the officials here are firmly con-
vinced that no single power would undertake to
defy the expressed will of the other parties to
the conference.
In reference to the movements of Rear Ad-
mira1 Sigsbee's cruiser squadron. it is said at
the Navy Department that the plans for this
cruise in European waters were projected long
before there was the slightest suspicion in Off
cial minds here that the Moroccan affair would
assume such shape as to threaten the peace OF
Europe. It is further pointed out that the ships
of Rear Admiral Sigsbee's squadron. being, with
the exception of the Brooklyn, nothing more
than protected cruisers, are not of a type that
would be chosen for any serious business.
