NEAR AGREEMENT
At CONFERENCE

Algeciras, March 10.-ExpressiOns
by the French and the German dele
gates last evening give the impress
sion that compromise on points hither-
to deadlocked may be reached at to
days sitting me German dele
gates have now moved from the
hitherto rigid standpoint which they
have maintained relative to the Mo
roccan bank, declaring their readi-
ness to grant to the French subscrib-
ers to the existing loan two shares
of capital of the bank instead of ona
as originally insisted on. The French
delegates, though outwardly deter
mined not to push their demand for
shares as embodied in their project
appear inclined to accept the German
offer, but in return expect the Ger
mans to meet them with concessions
in the matter of police.

Control of Eastern Asia.

For many centuries while botn ia
pan an China were left to their own
resources, physical and mental, the
nation which was far the greater in
bulk was also much the stronger in
war Then Japan was more than once
in peril of invasion and possible con
quest by armies from China. There
was no chance that China could be
subjugated by Japan. What reason
is there to doubt that if the Chinese
turn their faces resolutely toward their
present needs and adopt western
ways, at least in military matters,
they can restore their old supremacy
in eastern Asia? If so, what will that
mean to the world This is the great
overshadowing problem Of China

Washington, March 6.-The question
of the enlargement of the medical
department of the army occupied the
major portion of the time of the SEN
ate. The question arose in connec-
ton with consideration OF bill for
the displacement Of contract surgeons
by physicians who shall be given the
rank as army officers. Senator Hale
criticised the bill as an entering
wedge for a general increase OF the
army. In the course of his remarks
he said that the general staff was dis
posed to encourage an invasion of
China. Senators Carter and Gallinger
spoke in somewhat the same vein,
while the bill was defended by Sen
ators Warren, Blackburn and others.
