CONFERENCE FAILS.
Morocco situation VIII Remain Same
IS Before the Meeting.


London. Feb. 12.-Whi1e the Brit
ish government has not relaxed its eff
forts to bring about an agreement be
tween France and Germany on the
question of the Moroccan police it
has given up hope Of an amicable
settlement. Tt is expected in official
circles that the Algeciras conference
will break UP possibly during the
present week, leaving the Moroccan
situation where it was before the con-
ference was called. Germany is given
the credit for the failure. In fact it is
believed here that Emperor William,
realizing that there is no hope of Ger
many's demands being endorsed by
the powers is now anxious that the
conference shall fail.
Great Britain maintains her posi-
ton supporting the French demands
In regard to the police and can not see
any reason for a compromise. Should
the conference break uD it is under
stood that France will continue her
policy of policing the Algerian frontier
and should serious troubles break out
within the sultan's domains France
will undertake to suppress them,
notifying the powers that she can not
allow the disorder to continue as it
threatens the peace of her colony
Germany then win be in the position,
it is pointed out, of having either to
concede the right of France to police
Morocco or issue an ultimatum that
France must not interfere in the af-
fairs of the country.
