Brownsville Investigation Slow.

Washington, Feb. 9.-The in
quiry into the Brownsville case, by
the senate committee on military af-
fairs, may continue at intervals for
several months. Many men for whom
subpoenas have been issued, have not
been found and others are in Texas
attending the courtmartial of the
white officers of the discharged negro
battalion. The investigation has pro-
ceeded far enough to convince the
members Of the committee that the
only way to get at the bottom of Tie
affair is by the slow process of ex-
amining every man to see what he
knows. Thus far only few mem
bers of companies B and D have
been on the stand and no evidence
has been secured indicating that these
men were guilty of the offense charged
against them

CABINET CONSIDERS MATTER
Conclusions Arrived at Based on the
Precedent Established After the

Paris, Sept. 10.-A special meeting
Of the cabinet was held during the day
for the purpose of considering the
Moroccan situation. The following e
| conclusions were reached:
First-The Moroccan government
should be held responsible for the
massacre of July 80 at Casa Blanca,
as We'll as for the damages suffered as
result of the pillage or the repres-
sion of disorders.

ers at Casa Blanca that France COM
pensate them for the losses they sus.
tanned during the bombardment.
The conclusions arrived at are
based on the precedent established
after the bombardment of Alexandria
by the British feet in 1882.
The cabinet requested Foreign Min
sster Pichon to examine the general
question of Morocco and to prepare a
note on the subject to be issued as
soon as possible.
After the meeting OF the cabinet
Premier Clemenceau announced that
he had not received any messages
from General Drude, the French COM
mander at Casa Blanca, or from Vice
Admiral Phiibert, commander of the
naval forces off the coast of Morocco,
regarding the result of the armistice.
He added:
NJ. Malpertuy, our consul at Casa
Blanca, considers it to be a most i'm
rortant fact that a delegation of Moors
sought to negotiate for peace, as it
indicates that The warning tribes are
weary of hostiIities.'

BRITISH PRESS SILENT.
placed in Embarrassing Position by
Vancouver Riots.

| London, Sept. l0-The attack on
the japanese and Chinese at Vancou-
yer, b. c., places the English news
papers in an embarrassing and anus
Ing position. Several OF the most
prominent of them were particularly
severe upon the San Francisco hood
lumS" when the outbreak of much
violence occurred there. They are
now confronted with a more serious
situation in a British colony and ap-
parently are at loss what to say
The majority remain silent. The
Times, whose American correspondent
severely and repeatedly denounced the
San Franciscans' action towards the
japanese, is the only morning paper
commenting on the Canadians DEM
22stration. The paper deplores that
it is not at present obvious how a
permanent amelioration of the situa.
ton is to be effected" attributes the
trouble entirely to labor union agita-
tion and ridicules the idea that a few
thousand japanese are likely to turn
British Columbia or California into
Moneolian provinces
The Pail Mall Gazette, the only aft
ernoon newspaper to express an opin-
ion on the subject, takes a directly OPP
posite view, saying:
The Asiatic makes his entry into
Canada under the auspices OF the
great god Of cheapness. He comes
with an offer to take work at half the
rate or less than paid for white mems
labor, an arrangement which none the
less con be carried out on a basis
which involves great advance upon
the scale of remuneration enjoyed in
his own country. In competition of
this character the Caucasian believes
and all economic reasoning seems to
support him, that his own standards
of life are certain TO be depleted and |
destroyed"

GERMANY FEARS REPRlSALs
RepIfes TO French Note Regarding Pc
licinn of Morocco.

Berlin, Sept. l0.-Germany's reply
to the French note relative to the
formation of a Moroccan police force
from French and Spanish troops says
that Germany assumes that the meas
ure proposed is merely OF provisional
character and without prejudice to the
terms of the Algeciras convention.
The reply of Germany calls atten-
tion TO the opinion of the German rep
resentatives at Tangier that the ap-
pearance of foreign police there ana
at other Moroccan ports at the pres
ept moment is likely to result in the
mountain tribes attacking the citles'
with consequent danger to the ilves
and property of Europeans unless Ell

provided.

was involved in the anti-Japanese
riots at Vancouver, came to this couh-
try to investigate and report on the
recent anti-Japanese demonstrations
in San Francisco While this was
given out as the specific object of his
visit it is generally understood that
his mission was to make thorough
study of the whole Japanese question
in this country and to ascertain the
cause and extent of whatever pieJu-
dice may exist against the japanese.
He spent some time in San Francisco
and after travelling through this coun'
try went to British Columbia, where
the conditions arising from the recent
| inflow of Japanese and Hndus into
| the Northwest has caused a serious
| disturbance of labor conditions.
