ALGEcIRAs. February 2o.--The dele
gates to the Moroccan conference are
most pessimistic over the results OF the
negotiations. Gernany's reply rejecting
the French proposals for policing Mo-
rocco. adds that Germany is ready to
examine any further propositions France
may wish to make, but the French seem
not to have any further propositions to
present. The French view is that the
German reply leaves little hope for the
success of the conference.
Some OF the principal delegates declare
that the failure Of the conference is now
confined to the private Franco-German
exchanges, and ii remains open for the
conference to consider the subject, al
cord now that the efforts TO reach a prs.
vate agreement have failed.
Frances and Germany's project for the
creation OF state bank in Morocco was
submitted to tho conference to-day. Ger
lnany's proposal created even a worse
impression among tho French and British
delegates than did last n.sais rejection
OF the French project relative to police.
Both the French and the British delegates
consider that the German proposition
shows an absolute disregard of Frances
position as tho largest and privileged
creditor OF Morocco by giving every power
equal controlling capacity on the admin
istrative body without reference To prefer
entail claims.
