GERMANY ABSOLUTELY REJECTS
FRENCH PROPOSALS FOR Po.
LIclNG OF MOROCCO.
PRIVATE NEGOTIATIONS At An END
DISPUTED POINTS WILL NOW BE
TAKEN UP BY THE ALICE
CiRAS CONFERENCE.

Paris, Feb. 21-Germany's rejection
OF Frances proposals at Algeciras that
the proposed Moroccan police system
shall be French and Spanish has
given renewed gravity to the Franco
German situation. 1t is officially an
nounced that Germany's action leaves
France no course but to terminate the
private negotiations and appeal to the
Judgment of the world before the open
conference. This decision suspends
the meetings between M. Revolt, mead
of the French mission at Algeclras,
and Herr Won Radowitz, chief OF the
German delegation, at which they have
been seeking to find an accord. The
neutral powers, including the United
States, strongly approved OF these pri-
vate exchanges as being the best
means of avoiding an open discussion
of the controversy. The failure to
agree and Frances determination to
end the private negotiations bring the
parties to a deadlock This promises
to result In prolonged crisis, IN
which each side maintains the posi-
tion which it took up before the open
conference. The sentiment in official
circles is that Germany's reply tends
to destroy the usefulness of the con-
ference by making an agreement inn
possible. 1t is expected that the
strained situation will have the effect
of renewing the alarmist war reports
and of arousing public apprehension.
Later a semi-official note was issued
announcing Frances intention to dis
continue private negotiations and to
carry the question of policing Morocco
before the judgment Of the world In
the open conference.
The note states that Germany's re-
ply indicates that 1t Is evidently the
desire of Germany to have the confer
ence fail and it adds that the delegates
will not separate before fifteen days
have elapsed and after discussing all
the questions on the original pro-
gramMe. The latter statement indi-
Gates that there is no present inten-
tion on the part of France to create
rupture by withdrawing from the con-
ference

new YORK MURDER MYSTERY
HANSON CAB AND An ACTRESS
PRINCIPAL FEATURES OF
THE TRAGEDY.

New York, Feb. 21.-A murder mys-
terry, with some features not unlike
that Of the famous Patterson case OF
two years ago, is engaging the atten-
tion of the police AS in the crime
which cost Caesar Young his life and
Nan Patterson, an actress, more than
year of her liberty, a cab and
woman Of the stage are the principal
features in the latest mystery. The
woman, Gussie Hart, was the victim
and the carriage. according to the the.
ory OF the police, was the scene Of her
death. Several persons who are
thought to know something Of the
manner In which the woman was killed
have disappeared.
The first intimation that crime had
been committed came to the police
when physician notified them that
he had been called to the house at
261 West Thirty-eighth street to at
tend woman and found her dead. Her
skull had been fractured. Miss Hart
had been appearing in THE Child
Wife" at a theater Iii this city and
had theatrical engagements here until
May next. The police were unable
to learn where she was from the time
she left the theater until several hours
later when a cab stopped before the
house where she roomed in West
Thirty y-eighth street. Then, they say,
two men took her from the cab and
carried her into the house and few
minutes later the physis sian was called.
He was told that oman was i'll.
When he reached the ylom he found
two women and ;h,sfTl.an at the bed
side. Miss Hart was dead. When a
coroner, who was notified at once,
reached the room none of the watchers
remained. The body of the woman,
with the head terribly battered, was
lying undisturbed on the bed and the
walls along the stairway up which it
had been carried were smeared with
blood. The police are now searching
for the cab and for the two men who
carried the woman's body to her room.
Later the police arrested Edward
Murphy, dancing master, VINO said
that he was with Gussie Hart and that
he called the doctor. Murphy claims
the woman was injured by falling
down a flight Of stairs at the Little
Savoy, cafe and saloon.

CONFERENCE WILL FAIL.
Opinion Of Some OF the Delegates at
Aiqeciras.

Algeciras, Feb. 21.--The delegates
to the Moroccan conference are most
pessimistic over the results of the ne.
gotiations. Germany'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 dead
lock Is upon the following specific
points:
Germany's reply declared for the in
ternationalization OF Morocco's police
and the absolute equality OF all ma
tions In Morocco.
The French absolutely refuse these
principles, considering them In mega
tion Of the special rights which Franco
has acquired as the Algerian neighbor
Of Morocco and OF her predominant
position In Northwest Africa.
The French view Is that the German
reply leaves little hope for the success
OF the conference.
Some of the principal delegates be-
lisve that the failure OF the conference
= now inevitable.

GERMANY is RESOlUTE.
Determined Not to Yield Policing oi
Morocco to France,


Berlin, Feb. 21.--The decision of the
French government to discontinue pri-
vate negotiations between the French
and German delegates at Algeciras and
to take the disputed questions before
the conference Is regarded here as an
indication that the last phase of the
conference Is beginning. The German
government stands resolutely by its
position not to yield the policing of
Morocco to France, although fresh pro-
posals looking toward settlement
are likely to be made by neutral pow
ers.
The view taken of the situation by
the diplomats here is that 1t is doubt
full whether France and Germany can
be satisfied to break up the conference
without disposing OF the main Ques-
tions in dispute

 "While not ID position to demand support as a republican Judge Murane cannot get democratic votes at Nome.

 It was said that very large Propo- stion of the Nome republicans are wait ing for the campaign to develop before deciding for whom they will vote. It is their purpose to support the man who shows the best chances of winning Gale or Mellen, It is generally be- lieved this will be the former.

Judge Murane cannot carry Nome, " is the declaration of 8 leading Seward peninsula mining man, Nome lawyer and journalist and former mayor of the Northwestern metropolis, made at Seattle last week.

"The people will not vote for him." he con- tinued.
 When asked for bis reasons for mak- ing this statement the Nome man said:

It is said that many republicans are lining up for him. In this connection it is said there will be an attempt to arrange compen- sation for those republicans who are supporting Judge Mellen by securing democratic votes for Judge Murane, of Nome, for the short term.
