THE LIMIT ON CONCESSIONS
FRANCE HAS CONCEDED ALL
SHE is WILLING TO ON THE
MOROCCAN QUESTION.

Paris, Feb 21.--Notwithstandin
the renewed strain in Franco-German
relations growing out of the Morocco
question, public sentiment here re-
mains entirely calm. The journals Of
This city, including those in the gov
ernmental interest, bitterly attack
Eermany's course In the Algeciras
conference. They agree that France
has reached the limit Of her conces-
sions. However, there Is no recur-
renee of public excitement over posi-
Ailities of war. Even the sensational
newspapers make no allusion to war.
La Liberte, alone, says:
"While France wants peace, she
does not want the government to show
weakness before the inflexible and al.
most humiliating pretensions of Ger
many"
The comparative steadiness of the
sourse during the day also indicates
disposition to accept the events at
Algeciras philosophically.

oiaoRcE LAWS CONGRESS.
Endeanoring to Make the State Stat

Washington, Feb. ELIMINATED dis
cussion was INDUCED in during the
day by the congress on uniform di-
vorce laws on the resolutions proposed
by the Pennsylvania delegation out
lining important reforms by the va
rious states. The declarations had
been endorsed practically in their en-
tirety by the resolutions committee.
Arguments were exhausted and parlia-
mentary tactics invoked by the mi
nority of the congress to defeat the
adoption of the following portion of
the report, relating to migratory d.
vorce:
'When the courts are given cog
nizance of suits where the plaintiff
was domiciled in foreign jurisdiction
at the time the cause of complaint
arose, it should be insisted that relief
will not be given unless the cause of
divorce was included among those
recognized in such foreign domicile."
The section was finally adopted by
an overwhelming vote
Bishop Stanley OF North Dakota
explained his presence In the conven-
ton, saying:
Il am thoroughly in sympathy with
anything that it to destroy the divorce

vorce for any cause whatsoever"

Unique Advertising Scheme.

A Brooklyn business man conceived
and tried to carry into execution the
other day a unique and brilliant adj
vertising scheme. He had his adVertis-
ing sign affixed in raised letters to the
tire of an automobile. so that when the
letters were coated over with white
paint the machine painted his adver-
tisement on the asphalt wherever it
was driven. But the Brooklyn street
cleaning commissioner, being an I'M
responsive soul who did not appreciate
a stroke of genius like this on the
pavement, threatened the advertiser
with the police and promptly squelched
the whole scheme.-LeSlie's Weekly.

ALL EFFORTS AT DELAY FAIL.
Former State Senator Greene of New

Washington, Feb. PLATTER many
delays the trial of Former State Sena-
tor George E. Greene Of Bingnamton,
N. Y, On indictments charging con-
nection with the furnishing of post
office supplies, was began here during
the day. Efforts were made by the
defense to have the case further con-
tinued and also to abandon the pro-
ceedings because the indictments had
been passed on by federal court in
New York and promo Inced invalid.
The defense alleged that under an
agreement with the government

that all otner cases against him wodld

All efforts at delay were unsuccessful
and the selection of a jury was begun.

ENGRAVING ON DIAMONDS.
This Difficult Work Is Performed
Very ArtistfcaIly

Engraving on diamonds can be per-
formed in very effective manner. II
is true few not very artistically en-
graved stones were found in India,
and diamond on which the portrait
of the king of Holland was engraved
was shown at the Paris exhibition in
1873. But the work was numerically
executed, and the stones looked as if
they had been deadened rather than
polished. Recently, however. accord
ing to the Edelmentall Industrie. the
Paris jeweler, Bordinot, has produced
some very beautiful specimens of en-
cravings on diamonds. Among other
things, he has made yataghan having
thin diamond for the blade and
ruby for the handle Worthy of no.
tice also are a large circular stone on
which pansy with leaves is ssit and
a knife made of two diamonds. A
very artistic piece of work is a bicy-
Gle having two diamonds for it's wheels,
the spokes Of which are represented by
lines cut in the diamonds and the axles
by two holes bored through the cen
tSio. <Ai1OtljSi 10 cut Ill lue
shape of fish, and very beautiful
brooch consists of a scarabaeus sur
rounded by sapphres and brilliantS.
The most remarkable of all is d ring
made of diamond The inner sur
face is polished and the outer surface
artistically engraved. There are also
brooches in the form of flies, the wings
being represented by thin engraved
diamonds; also diamonds with armorial
bearings-e. G., shirt studs and sleeve
links with the Russian arms engraved
on them. Formerly only fiat surfaces
could be polished, but Bordinot has
succeeded in polishing concave parts,
as, for instance, the body and tail of
fish and the inner surface Of a ring.
With his tools he can not only make
straight lines, but also model freely.
These tools are his own invention, ard
it is stated that only his son is allowed
to use them. They are the result of
many years labor. of fine workman

within the last few years has it been
possible to bore holes in diamonds and

CONFERENCE WILL FAIL.
Opinion of Some of the Delegates at
Ageciras.


Algeciras, Feb. 21-The delegates
to the Moroccan conference are most
Pessimistic over the results of the ne.
sotiations Germany's reply rejecting
ahe 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 French view is that the German
reply leaves little hope for the success
of the conference
Some of the principal delegates be-
sieve that the failure Of the conference
rs now inevitable.
frances and Germany's projects for
she creation Of a state bank in Mo-
rocco were submitted to the confer
snce during the day. Germany's pro-
posal created even worse impression
among the French and British dele
gates than did her rejection of the
French police project. Both French
and British delegates consider that the
German proposition shows an absolute
disregard of Frances position as the
largest and most privileged creditor Of
Morocco by giving every power equal
controlling capacity on the admins.
trative body without reference to
preferential claims relative to existing
loans.
Other points with regard to control
Of the finances of Morocco also
aroused objections. Count Won Tatten-
bach, the junior German delegate, has
repeatedly expressed the view that the
settlement of the bank question was
merely delayed by the necessity of
first dealing with the police and this
has led the French and British dele
gates to the belief that Germany was
willing to effect compromise on the
financial controversy in return for
French moderation regarding police.
They consider that Frances consent
to entertain Germany's demand for
the admittance of a third power as the
controlling element in the police amply
proves her desire for the success OF
the conference, and therefore the I'M
compromising nature of the present
German proposal is very disappointing
to them.
Many of the delegates of the othe,
powers also take a pessimistic view Of
the situation; but Henry White, the
head of the American delegation, Il
still inclined to believe that there Is {
