CABINET CONSIDERS MATTER Conclusions Arrived at Based on the Precedent Established After the Bombardment of Alexandria by the British Fleet in 1882. Paris, Sept. 10.—A special meeting of the cabinet was held during the day for the purpose of considering the Morocean situation.” The following conclusions were reached: First—The Morocecan government should be held responsible for the massacre of July 30 at Casa Blanca, as well as for the damages suffered as a result of the pillage or the repres- sion of disorders. Second—The indemnities should be fixed by an international commission. Incidentally this is France’s answer to the demands of the German export- ers at Casa Blanca that France com- pensate them for the losses they sus- tained during the bombardment. The conclusions arrived at are based on the precedent established after the bombardment of Alexandria by the British fleet in 1882. The cabinet requested Foreign Min- ister Pichon to examine the general question of Morocco and to prepare a note on the subject to be 18suea ay soon as possible. After the meeting of the cabinet Promier Clemenceau announced that he had not recelved any messages from General Drude, the French com- mander at Casa Blanca, or from Vice Admiral Philibert, commander of the naval forces eff the coast of Morocco, regarding the result of the armistice. He added: “M. Malpertuy, our consul at Casa Blanca, considers it to be a most im- portant fact that a delegation of Moors sought to negotiate for peace, as it indicates that the warring tribes are weary of hostilities.” Although France has not actually recelved Germany’s reply to her note relative to the Franco-Spanish policing of Moroccan ports with troops pend- ing the establishment of the interna- tional police M. Clemenceau said the French government was aware of Ger. many’s attitude on the subject. GERMANY FEARS REPRISALS Replies to French Note Regarding Po- licing of Morocco. Berlin, Sept. 10.—Germany's reply to the French note relative to the formation of a Morocean police force from French and Spanish troops says that Germany assumes that the meas- ure proposed is merely of a provisional character and without prejudice to the terms of the Algeciras convention. The reply of Germany calls atten- tion Lo the opinion of the German rep- resentatives at Tangier that the ap- pearance of foreign police there and at other Moroccan ports at the pres- ent moment is likely to result in the mountain tribes attacking the cities, with consequent danger to the lives and property of Europeans unless effi- cient military support for the poliee is provided. In regard to fhe German claims for damages sustained at Casa Blanca no difficulties, it is asserted, are likely. General Drude Indisposed. Casa Blanca, Sept. 10.—General Drude, the French commander, is suf- fering from an intestinal inflamma- tion peculiar to Moroceo. His illness may postpone his assuming the offen- sive against the Moors if the armis- tice fails. TAFT'S TRIP AROUND WORLD Secretary of War Will Return Home About Dec. 10.

Vancouver, B. C., Sept. 10.—Follow- ing a riot in which Chinatown and the Japanese quarters were raided and damage done approximating $15,000 a further demonstration occurred later in which Aikujiro Ishii, chief of the bureau of foreign commerce and head of the Japanese consular service, and Consul Saburo Hisamidzu of Seattle were the central figures and in which riot a number of people were bruised and injured by broken bottles and fly- ing bricks in the hands of a frenzied mob. Baron Ishii and Consul Hisa- midzu finally made their escape from the mob and the affair was immedi- ately cabled to Tokio. Coincident with the riot was the ar- rival of a steamship having on board at least 500 Japanese. With a com- mon impulse the mob surged to the Wwater front and as soon as the Japa- nese came down the gangplank they were met by the rioters. Seven or eight of the Japanese were uncere- moniously picked up and thrown into Burrard inlet. Still further rioting occurred when acrowd of about 4,000 laborers started on the warpath, but were finally quelled by the police after about twen- ty arrests had been made. Chinatown has been roped off and the quarters of the Orientals guarded by the police. Baron Ishii gave out an interview in which he stated that he had cabled to Ambassador Kaneko at London apprising him of the stir- ring events here. Indemnity from the ecity to the amount of $25,000 will be claimed. Mayor Bethune declares the indemnity will not be paid and the affair will be taken up with the Dominion govern- ment, The rioting was the worst in the | history of Western Canada. Interna- tional complications are looked for. JAP ACCOUNT OF AFFAIR. | | Official | Report of Riot Received at Ottawa. Montreal, Sept. 10.—The following telegram has been received by Consul General Nosse, at Ottawa, from Mr, | Ishii, director of commerce and trade, department of foreign affairs of Japan, who is at present in British Columbia studying the anti-Japanese movement in that province: “Having arrived at Vancouver at 11 D. m. on Sept. 7 I found that during the early part of the evening there was held a demonstration of the Anti- Japanese and Korean league and about 9 p. m. a number of rowdies, about fifty or sixty, marched into the sec- tion of the city where the stores kept by the Japanese and Chinese are and threw stones, breaking considerable glass, “Following this aitack there came another one, this time the number be- ing increased to about 500, and the fronts of several of the stores were broken. So far as I can ascertain only one Jipanese was wounded. The police force did its best, but there is hardly any hope of relief in that direc- tion. Consul Morikawa is staying at the seat of the disturbance, trying to impress upon the city police to extend their protection over the Japanese residents and at the same time to sup- press the utmost excitement of the Japanese. There may be no further disturbances.” Fourth Attack Is Made. Mr. Ishii’s hope was unfortunately not fulillled, as Consul General Nosse has received the following telegram from Consul Morikawa: “In continuance of the message sent by Mr. Ishii 1 have to report that a fourth attack was made by the row- dies about midnight on the Japanese quarter. Twice again they tried to attack the Japanese stores, but on ac: count of the vigilance of the Japanese and the city police and also the late ‘hour of the night their number grad- ually decreased and by 3 a. m. the rowdies scattered everywhere and tranquillity was restored by dawn. The damage done to the Japanese stores is as follows: General stores 13, hotels 9, candy and confectionery shops 7, bathhouses 2, barber shops b, shoemakers 2, banking office 1, news- paper office 1, employment offices 4, restaurant 1, rice mill 1, hatters’ shop 1, tailors 2, watchmaker 1. “Of these fifty stores all the win- dows and door glass was smashed. Two Japanese were wounded.” Consul General Nosse will lay all the facts before Sir Wilfrid Laurier, premier of Canada. Regret Expressed at Ottawa, Ottawa, Ont,, Sept. 10.—The general opinion in official circles is that Can- apologize to Japan for damages caused by the Vancouver riots to property of the Japanese in that city. Regret is expressed that the outbreak should have taken place at the time when the Japanese immigration ques- tlon was all but solved between the governments of Canada and Japan, BRITISH PRESS SILENT. Placed in Embarrassing Position by Vancouver Riots. London, Sept. 10.—The attack on the Japanese and Chinese at Vancou- ver, B. C, places the English news. papers in an embarrassing and amus- Ing position.

T. Baker @ Co. Located in City Drug Store 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- onstration. The paper deplores “that it is not at present obvious how a permunent amelioration »f the situa- tion is to be effected,” @ ributes 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 inte Mongolian provinces. The Pall Mall Gazette, the only aft €rnoon newspaper to express an opin- fon on the subject, takes a directiy op- posite view, saying: - “The Asiatic makes his entry intr Canada under the auspices of the great god of cheapness. He comes with an offer to take work at half the rate or less tian paid for white men’s labor, an arrangement which none the less can be carried out on a basis which involves a 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.” CAME TO PROBE FRISCO RIOT Japanese Official Involved in Vancou- ver Disturbance. New York, Sept. 10.—Aikujiro Ishii, the director of the commercial bureau of the Japanese foreign office, who was involved in the anti-Japanese riots at Vancouver, came to this coun- try to investigate and report on the recent anti-Japanese demonstrations in San Francisco. While this was giveu out as the specific object of his visi¢ it is generally understood that his mission was to make a thorough study of the whole Japanese question in this' country and to ascertain the cause and extent of whatever preju- dice may exist against the Japanese. He spent spme time in San Francisco and after traveling through this coun- try went to British Columbia, where the conditions arising from the recent inflow of Japanese and Hindus into the Northwest has caused a serious disturbance of labor conditions, TO SPEAK FOR - BURTON. land Mayoralty Contest.
