England Ready for War.

LONDON, Sept 11.-Whlle England
naturally has been greatly interested In
the Moroccan negotiations there has been
no excitement over them except Tor
few DAYS following the arrival Of a Ger
man gunboat at Aradir. The VARYING op.
timism and pessimiSm of the continental
reports leave Englishmen unmoved.
In official circles. however, an anxious
view of the question is taken and this
view has not been changed by the re-
Ceipt of the summary of the German
reply TO the French proposals telegraphed
here. II Is true, diplomats point out. that
Germany appears to agree In principle to
the establishment of a French protec-
torate in Morocco. She. however makes
such reservations amount almost 10 a
withdrawal from the agreement.
France" said n high official today,
lis prepared to give Germany every
guarantee that she will receive equality
of treatment with other nations. but II
Is impossible for France 10 give the eco
nomic advantages now asked.
While no one processes 10 believe that
war Is probable, there is no doubt OF
Great BTitains readiness therefor. To-
day the admiralty placed orders for 90

ARIS, Sept il.-France's reply TO
Germany's counter proposals in the
reo nns Negotiations g nN s A1ss ssr. sSa
French cabinet tomorrow for ap-
proval The task OF drawing up the re-
ply proved simpler than at first expected,
doubtless because the German demands
were such as could not be accepted by
France.
1t is said that the reply, while written
in a spirit of concIliation, is absolutely
frm with regard to the position France
has assumed concerning questions of
principle, from which France will not
depart a hairs breadth.
The premier's energetic and business
like manner OF proceeding has had a
good effect. 1t Is regarded as another
proof OF the absolute unanimity and firm
ness OF the government as to Its policy
and as manifestation OF the govern
ment's desire to do Its utmost 10 shorten
the period OF uncertainty which is hav-
ing such prejudicial effect on the mar
kets OF the world. II also removes any
possibility of charges that France by de-
lay assisted In bringing about any fur
ther financial distress in Germany.
The broad outlines OF GermanSs pro-
posals have been communicated 10 the
public because the government believes
that the people have right TO know at
this period OF tension what is doing.
Foreign Minister DE Selves has also in
dicated In semi official note that
France reply would be a refusal TO ac-
cept Gcrmany's conditions. In this
French opinion appears to be wholly
united and prepared for any contin
gency.
One point of view in official quarters
is that tiermanys financial situation,
which is expected TO reach climax by
the end of September, may tend 10 mod
crate Germany's demands.
