St. Petersburg, Jan. 14.-From infor- nation received by the foreign office here, France is clearly alarmed at the possibility of complications during the Algeciras conference owing to the fear that Germany will pursue an aggres- sive' policy.
 Premier Witte and Foreign Minister Lamsdorff regard these apprehensions as unfounded. being evidently convinc- ed from their Berlin advices that Ger many has no intention of going behind safeguarding the open door policy. Nevertheless, as Frances ally Russia is bound to sustain France. The repre- sentations that Great Britain have giv- en France assurance of her support are confirmed.

MORALES ENGAGED
 IN HUNTING WORK
He Leaves the Presidency of San DO-
 mingO Impoverished.

San Juan. P. R., Jan. 14.-The Unit ed States gunboat Dubuque, arrived here at o'clock this afternoon from Santo Domingo and at o'clock start ed on her return to San Domingo City, which place was left without war ship when she sailed from Porto Rico.
 On board the Dubuque was General Carlos Morales, former president of Santo Domingo. He is suffering from a broken ankle, and a. navy hospital ambulance was waiting when the yes seI arrived to convey him to the hos pital. His injury was received from a fall from his horse on December 24, and since that time he has been with out medical attention.
 General Morales is reported to have been within a dozen miles of San Do- mingo City, until he arranged with the American minister, MT. Dawson, to re- sign the presidency and was brough+ into the city by his secretary, En- rique Jiminez, who is nephew of for mer President Jiminez of Santo Do- mingo, now residing at San Juan, and a body servant of President Morales. At present it is the intention of Gen. eral Morales to remain in Porto Rico, until he has recovered from his injury, and then possibly he will go to Pan- anna.
 Officers of the Dubuque say that
