WILL OUR POLICY
BE INTERRUPTED :?
Senator Bacon Wants to Know
How Deep We Are to Mix
in Moroccan Affairs.
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, d. c., January S.
Senator Bacon introduced to-day reso-
luton requesting of the President a
detailed account of the negotiations re-
sulting in ;he appointment of delegates
from the United States to conference
soon to be held at Algeciras, Spain, for
the purpose of considering certain grave
questions relative to the commercial and
political affairs OF Morocco. and in which
the governments OF the leading powers
of Europe are expected to participate.
The Senator expects to speak on the reso-
luton tomorrow.
The preamble to the resolution says:
The question at issue and the rela-
tons of European governments thereto,
are reported TO be OF such gravity and
the antagonistic demands of European
governments to be so acute. as to en-
danger the peace OF Europe, as Is evil
denced by the publicly announced pre-
parations for war in the dispositions of
troops and flats and in gathering OF
war material BY several of said Euro
pean powers. and as Is also evidenced
by press dispatches from the capitals of
said powers
The preamble further declares that
our only legitimate concern with Mo-
roccan affairs relates to the Very limited
commerce between that country and our
own, and is in no manner connected
with the grave political controversy
which has been carried on for some time
past between Germany on the one side
and France and England on the other as
TO the future political control of Morocco,
1t having been the settled policy of this
government since Its foundation to ao-
stain from taking part in such political
controversies between European ma
tons"
The resolution requests the President
10 furnish the Senate with copies OF the
invitation to the conference and this gov
ernments reply, and of the instructions
given the United States delegates; also
to inform the Senate whether under their
instructions the delegates from the
United States are limited in their author
ity TO a participation in the action OF the
| conference on questions in which the
United States has an interest, or whether
they have authority to participate In &C
tlon relative to the political affairs OF
Morocco and her relations to the respec-
tive European powers.

WASHINGTON, ID. C.. January s.
With over four hours devoted 10 the
District OF Columbia there Was left but
half hour 10 be devoted by the House

sets, who spoke strongly for tariff revi-
Zion from the Democratic standpoint. He
maintained that AFR. Payne tNew York;
had shown that there was no necessity
Ter protecting American labor and COM
batted the iJsa that the balance of
foreign trade in favor OF the United
States was any argument of prosperity
cue 10 the Dingley tariff. He attributed
The large home consumption to the alb

the president of the railroad company and
discusses two transactions referred to In
the report-the issue of bonds and their
re-purchase by the company and the
market contract for feeding employees on
the lsthmus.
Secretary Taft says that when in need
of money, the railroad company sold 62S
ne-thousand-dollar bonds at par and five
per cent. premium, and comments thus
on the transactions:
The policy of selling the bonds was
doubtful one. and should not have been
adopted until after conference with
higher governmental authority"
me railroad company was instructed to
re-purchase the bonds, which was done.
The executive officers OF the railroad
company have been advised OF their err
the President, and, hereafter questions
of this character will not be acted upon
finally by the commission or the directors
of the railroad company until after con-
ference with the proper authorities"
Send Claims Higher Up.
The Secretary discusses at length the
Stevens objected to it on the ground OF
excessive cost. When the contract was
cancelled Markell presented q claim for his
claim for the value of his. time and.
services. The directors at the instance or
M. Snonts voted TO allow MI, Markell for
MS expenses, and services the sum OF
Si0Ta5,9I and the money was paid at
once. This action, says Secretary Taft,

Secretary Taft remarks:
