sETTLEMENT OF MOROCCAN CON-
TRoVERSY APPEARS TO BE
NEAR AT HAND.
GERMANY TO ACCEPT FRENCH PLAN
LATTER TO CONTROL MOROCCAN
POLICE UNDER CERTAIN
GUARANTEES.

Ageciras, Spain, March 9.-The
ministerial crisis in Paris caused pro-
iaund astonishment among the dele
gates of the powers attending the Mo-
4occan conference, but the details
have not yet reached Algeciras. The
impression prevails that the event is
aepIorable and may possibly prove
disastrous to French diplomacy. The
delegates, however, refuse to commit
themselves on the effect which the
downfall of the Rouvier cabinet may
have on the conference.
Previous to the receipt of the news
Of the ministerial crisis at the French
capital the tone of discouragement
had completely disappeared and the
work of rapproachment was proceed
ing with feverish activity.
The conference during the morning
resumed the discussion of the Moroc-
can police question. Three distinct
propositions were presented-one by
The Austrian delegation embodying the
German ideas; another by the French
aud the third by the Moroccan mis-
sion.
Various Plans Explained.
The Austrian plan gives the sultan
supreme command of the police and
he is to select French officers for the
police at four ports. The Moroccan
Dlan makes the sultan supreme and
asks that all the powers participate in
the organization of the police. The
French plan, as heretofore outlined,
establishes Franco-Spanish police. at
eight OF the leading ports.
An official note issued at the close
Of the days session read as follows:
Herr Won Radowitz (chief of the
German mission), referring to the
statements made by the Russian,
French and Spanish delegates at the
last session of the conference, said the
German government did not object to
the organization of the Moroccan po-
lice by France and Spain at the ports
open to commerce under proper guar
aatees assuring economic liberty"
The official statement made by Herr
Won Radowitz appears to assure an
agreement.

Paris, March 9.-The government
finds itself without ministry at the
elimination stage of the Moroccan
conference at Algeciras. A semi-offi-

says: "
The ministerial crisis does not af-

This is designed chiefly to warn
Germany not to take advantage of the
situation The fact Is that the minis

threatens the agreement, which other
wise might have been reached shortly.
