We Also Have Rights,

The governments view is that America
has, by virtue Of her ancient interest IN
Morocco. rights even superior TO those OF
any European state IN deciding the crit
zeal questions which Will come before the
conference The basis of this statement
IS that America, single-handed, made war
upon the Barbary states, wiped out pt-
racy in Mediterranean waters and con-
Guided the first treaty Of any civilized
nation with those states, & treaty which
has formed the basis Of the demand Of
every other nation for characterization
treatment at the hands Of Morocco. SO,
from considerations such as the perpet-
uatiOn Of the Open-dOOr and fair trade
for all in Morocco, the United States gov
eminent feels that it has right and duty
to participate in this important confer
ence. AS to the question Of policing the
Moroccan frontier, they stand uncommit-
ted either to the German proposition,
which favOrs the creation Of an intsrna-
Of employing Algerian police for this
purpose.

the explanation Of this last German

last July, when the Morocco situation Ie-

facilities, We're not in a condition JUST
flying France in adopting an aggressive
attitude. So the negotiations suddenly
assumed a mild tone and have dragged
along up to this time. Meanwhile the
general staff went 10 work with great as
siduity TO correct the evils which had de-
veloped, with the result that within the
lastten days it was discovered that in
the opinion Of military experts the
FIepch army is in better condition than
at any period I'm its history. The weak

could not be concealed. So to make the

placing Of the vast order for transpOrta-

Berlin as an answer 10 the French unof-

of France for military action.

TROUBLE OVER MOROCCO
FRANCE FIRST BEGAN GETTING
IN SHAPE.

Berlin, Jan. 3.-The railway admin
istration placed orders last week for
1000 freight cars at d cost Of $50, 0OO,-
600, with manufacturers Of five cOun-
tries, stipulating delivery by the mid
die Of February, besides utilizing the
car works of Germany. The contracts
were distributed among makers in
Belgium. Holland, Switzerland and
Ltny, which would not have been done
unless some reasons for haste existed.
Inquiries made regarding the reasons
for urgency resulted in obtaining the
statement that the ordering Of the cars
was a precautionary measure, the gen.
erel staff desiring 10 be ready to move
troops Unnecessary by the first of
March. This Is only q proper measure
of-prudeRCe. ii was affirmed, in view
of-the extensive military arrangements
goln on''fn France. which, among other
dispositions, include the movement to-
wards the German frontier Of six regt-
nlenes OF artillery, or $50 guns.
Matter of Precautlon.
The ordering of these freight cars,
each of(Nil.ch would accommodate for
tyssoldieTs, or would enable the RuthOri-
ties to- transport material, is only in
consequence Of the French preparations
and must not be taken to indicate any
hostile design On-the part OF Germany
whose peaceful intentions remain I'M
changed. The step aiken is due to the
conviction long held and acted upon
here that the best preventative OF peace
is complete preparedness for any even
tual1ty. The word war IS not used be-
cause such 2 Begdz in itself would be a
pToyocative, and every interest both in
end outside the government shrinks
rom such a possibility unless it be a
small group. Of military man. The gov
eranent win probably regret the pub
licaticn of this intelligence but its
transmits ,TyJ--sefITs necessary to a
proper understanding Of the drift of
events and of how both France and
Germany are strengthening their dipIo-
mattc position on the eve OF the MOroc-
can conference by material prepara-
lions.
No doubt exists here that the French
and German policies Will differ in the
conference on the question of policing
the MorOccO-Algerian frontier and on
some less important questions.
