A PEACE OUTLOOK
GERMANY REGARDS SUCCESS AS.
SURED AT ALGEClRAS.
POLICE QUESTION IS OVERCOME
Inspector to Be Appointed Who Shall
Be Neither German Nor French
The Understanding is That the kals-
err Valves None Of His Rights.

BERLIN-Private conversations be
tween the German and French ENJOYS
at Aigeciras have brought them almost
to an agreement on the Moroccan po-
lice controversy-so near, indeed, that
the Foreign office here regards a sat.
isfactory issue of the conference as
assured. Germany, it is understood,
accepts France and Spain as having
the officers best fitted for policing Nor
Deco and France accepts international
control in principle, undertaking to
supply adequate guarantees that the
police shall not be national in charac-
ter.
The specific form of these guarantys
remains unsettled and continues to be
the subject for discussion. 1t is likely
that an international inspectorship will
be created, consisting of a single Off
Ger of repute from power other than
France, Spain or Germany. One detail
which continues to be discussed is the
propriety of the inspector being 10
Gated in a neutralized harbor The
ministers of the powers will also exer-
else general observation over the po-
lice.
French Project Distributed.
ALGECIRAS, Spain-The French po-
lice project was. distributed late this
evening among the delegates to the
conference on Moroccan reforms. The
proposition which will be presented to
thn onnforonna 30
five paragraphs, the substance OF which
is as follows
"The Moroccan police to be consti-
tuted for three years, composed of
Moorish Mussulmans commanded by
sixteen French and Spanish officers
and thirty-two non-commissioned Off
GERS. The force to consist OF 1000 to
$500 men distributed along the eight
ports in bodies Of from zoo to 500.
The State bank to advance funds for
the administration and for the pay
ment Of the force"
No mention is made of international
supervision and the project therefore
is practically the same as was outlined
in M. Revoil's declaration on Monday.
The result of tomorrow's sitting of
the conference is awaited with the
most intense interest. Reports rela-
tive to the probability of an agreement
are circulated on all sides. Concilia-
ton certainly is in the air and con-
tinued efforts in that direction are go
ing on, but tangible basis for pos
sible arrangement cannot be learned.
