Although the agreement Is executed in terms of great ion, the agreement being referred an accord basec on a full appre- n and recognition of each Govern- at's rights and aims,” it is regarded as a triumph for Emperor William and Prince von Bulow that will strengthen Germany’'s diplomacy everywhere on the continent. The attitude of the American Govern- ment toward the Moroccan controversy was always satisfactory to Germany. Precisely what part President Roosevelt forwarding the settlement is not public in Berlin, but it is appre- ciated that the influences he exerted in Paris and London contributed toward the settlement. The documents covering the Franco- German Moroccan agreement are three in number, all dated July 8. The first Pre- mier Rouvier wrote to Prince von Rad- olin, the German Embassador at Paris, saying that the French Government, through the discussions that had taken place between the representatives of both countries in Paris and Berlin, had reached the conviction that, as the conference proposed by the Sultan of Morocco was directed toward no aim opposed to the in- terests of France in Morocco, nor to her defined rights, nor in opposition to her treaties or engagements, France gave her assent to the conference with these fun- damental principles: The soverelgnty and independence of the Sultan, the integrity of hie kingdom, the usual economic the necessity for police and financial reforms and their introduction for a short period on the basis of an in- ternational agreement and the acknowl- | edgment of the fact that France had especial interests in having order rule in Moroceo, because of the long frontier trouble between Algeria and Morocco Q The highest type of FAMILY SEWING M A CHINE—the embodiment of SIMPLICITY and UTILITY—the ACME of CONVENIENCE.

The third document is a declaration signed by Rouvier and Prince von Rado- lin that the two Governments had agreed to recall their legations at Tangier as soon as the conference met at Fez and to jointly advise the Sultan to prepare a programme to be laid before the inter- national conference in accordance with the principles set forth in the letters ex- changed between Rouvier and Von Rado- lin. it R L | DEPUTIES ARE INFORMED. | Diplomatic Exchanges Are Submitted | to the Chamber by Rouvier. | PARIS, July 10.—Premier Rouvier | submitted to the Chamber of Deputies ! to-day the notes exchanged between him and Prince von Radolin, constitut- ing the Franco-German agreement relative to Morocco.

D i b i e OF SE OF 0OX R MACHINES AT THE ELECTION Commissioners Object to Freight Charge on the Eighty Voting Con- trivances to Be Purchased. The United States Voting Machine Com- pany last night offered the Election Com- missioners the use of 100 machines for | the coming election, free of charge. This offer is made with the provision that the city purchase the eighty machines for which an appropriation has been made by the Supervisors. The Commission has re- ceived but one bid, that of the United States Company. \ The purchase price of the eighty ma- chines is $52,000, plus $25 freight on each one. As no provision was made in the budget for freight on these appliances, a committee was appointed by the Com- mission to confer with the finance com- mittee of the Board of Supervisors to ar- rafige for the securing of the extra $§2000 for freight. No definite action as to the company's offer was taken by the Com- mission last night. The board does not view with favor the extra charge of $2 for each machine, and holds that the de- livery price should be $650 flat. If the eighty machines are bought and the loan of 100 extra ones offered by the manu- facturers, every precinct will be equipped with the voting machines. Registrar Adams submitted his fiscal year report. The facility of conducting elections and accuracy of the voting ma- chine were praised. The expenditures for the last fiscal year were $141,727 85, leaving a surplus of $27215. The following men were appointed to serve thirty days, beginning July 7, as assistants in the registration office: John E. Broderick, Paul A. McCarthy, P, Crittenden, L. J. Welch, F. Conley, M. A.

SARGENT SPEAKS FOR UNION MEN Replies to Attack Made by Congressman Hepburn at a Banquet in Honolulu DEFENDS THEIR STAND Immigration Commissioner Says All That Is Desired Is Fair Share in Profits o SR HONOLULU, July .10.—Congressman Hepburn of Iowa and United Stat/es Im- migration Commissioner Sargent in- dulged, in a pointed discussion of the labor union problem at a banquect given by local business men in honor of Sar- gent, who has spent some time here on official business, In reply to the toast “The Presi- dent,” Hepburn said that the incum- bent has problems to deal with such as did not confront any of his predeces- sors. He referred to fhe Labor Union interests as desiring to ‘‘rewrite the Constitution of the United States,” and added that the question to be deter- mined was whether it should be said that no American citizen shall work unless he has the card of some union and “pays tribute in the form of a tax to a labor organization.” Hepburn said that Washington had had no such prob- The speaker said he had been a laborer all his life and that his sympathies were with labor and con- cluded: P But I am got willing to belleve that we are ready to overturn the institutions of our fathers or to' rewrite the constitution or to permit a self-elected tribune to dictate,as to the rights of the citizens. Sargent, in responding to the toast “Our Guests," replied to some of Hep- burn’s remarks, stating at the end of his discussion of the matter that “there are members of Congress who are more dangerous and irresponsible than are the American laborers. Sargent said that he had been what is known as a labor agitator for sixteen | years and changed his employment to take his present position at the in- stance of thé President. He said: It was my business to meet the presidents | and directors of the railroads of the United States and convince them that they were | paying too big dividends and too little salaries. | It was my good fortune to convince those | representing the railroads that all labor wanted | was falr treatment and a fair share in the prufits of their labor. Sargent declared that there were no more earnest supportérs of the consti- tution than American laborers. Refer- | ring to the labor problem in Hawaii and the opening of the new immigra- tion station, he said that employers in tne islands should not confine them- selves to efforts to secure Asiatics. He said it was his desire and the desire | of the United States that the station snould be used principally by immi- grants who could be depended upon to | permanently upbuild the Territory and become American citizens. Hepburn’s address touched upon the expansion issue, besides the labor ques- tion. He said that he had never been much in favor of a colonial policy, but that he was in favor of holding on to every foot of soil over which the Amer- ican flag had been raised SIRCENT BACK FAON HONOLULL Frank P. Sargent, United States Com- missioner of Immigration, returned yes- terday from a three weeks’ visit to Hono- lulu and is registercd at the St. Francis. ‘While in Honolulu the Commissioner in- spected the new Government station | there and gave some attention to immi- gration matters. Discussing the latter subject last night, Commissioner Sargent sald the people of Hawall are at present deeply concerned in the exodus of Jap- anese from the islands. He said: While I was there 1000 Japanese left Hono- lulu for the United States, some going by way of Victoria and others via Vancouver and Seattle. ‘The British steamer Stanley Dollar was also sent there under contract to take 800 Japanese to Victoria, the understanding being that the majority of her passengers would later enter the United States by way of Seattle. Personally T am sorry to see the Japanese leaving the islands, for there is a scarcity of labor there, and this fact, with the present exodus of the Orientale, i8 naturally causing much uneasiness among the planters and busi- ness men generally. I think that the Japanese would beiter thelr condition by remaining there more than they will by coming to the mainland, but they take a different view of the matter, a fact 1 gleaned during talks with the Japanese, who sald they only intended to re- main in Hawall for a couple of years and then come to this country, where they would be affordad better opportunities for making a Hv- “%Ve can well afford to have these men re- main in the islands, for the immigration to_ the TUnited States is already too large. In May the immigration to this country from all for- elgn sources was 130,000 and I expect the total for June will be ahout the same. In the former month 600 Japanese arrived here. Commissioner Sargent expects to remain | in San Francisco several days, during which time he will inspect the Govern- ment site for a new immigration station | on Angel Island and will spend consider- able time with Commissioner North, dis- cussing various plans for improving the service at this port. ————————————— BURGLARS TAKE ROUNDABOUT WAY TO REACH SALOON Break Into Offices of Platt Iron ‘Works Company Adjoining and _Remove Pane of Glass. Burglars visited the offices of the Platt Iron Works Company at 11 First street between 7 o'clock Saturday night and 7 o'clock Sunday morning. They turned the key in the lock with a pair of nippers. Their object was, apparently, to obtain an entrance to the saloon of D. Rosenblum and the cigar stand of B. Jones at 423 Market street. A pane of glass in the partition di- viding the iron works company’s offices from the saloon had been broken. This enabled the burglars to crawl through to the saloon. The cash register in the saloon was forced open and $12 stolen. A nickel-fn-the-slot machine in the cigar stand was also broken open and its contents taken, but the amount was not known. The burglary was discovéred when the saloon was | opened for business on Sunday morn- ing. An examination showed that no attempt had been made to disturb any- thing in the offices of the iron com- pany. —_——————— Gold Watch Stolem. Antone Smith, 172 Perry street, re- J. F.

Reported Before the Wel- | come Coming of the Storm NEW YORK, July 10.—Ten deaths and | more than a score of prostrations resulit- |ed to-day from the intense heat wave which visited the city. A grateful breeze from the sea served in a measure to tem- | per the torrid temperature and excessive humidity, but the suffering, especially In | the swarming tenement house quarters, | was intense and throughout the day the ambulances were kept busy removing | sunstruck patients to the various hos- pitals. | At 1 o'clock the thermometer registered | | 89 degrees, two degrees higher than yes- terday, and the mercury remained at this | point until 8 o'clock, when a heavy thunderstorm, with a deluge of rain, | descended upon Brooklyn, the lower por- | tion of Manhattan and suburban towns in | New Jersey. The storm brought a start- | ling fall in the mercury, which dropped 13 | degrees within a half-hour, effectually | breaking the hot wave. This evening the | cool breeze continued, with every pros- pect that it would hold during the night. The rainstorm almost attained the pro- portions of a cloudburst in the lower sec- | tion of Manhattan and within ten min- | ues many of the downtown streets were flooded to the level of the sidewalks. Broad street, in the vicinity of the Stock | Exchange, was rendered impassable and | brokers on “curb” were compelled to | hasten the close of the market and flee | before the rising flood. Torrents rushed down Broadway, Whitehall street an State street and poured into the new sub- | way station at South Ferry, flooding the tracks nearly to the level of the third | rail and for a time threatening to inter-!| rupt traffic by short-circuiting the cur- rent. Within a half hour the flood sub- sided. During the height of the storm the ad- ministration building on Ellis Island, where there were 2000 immigrants, was struck twice by lightning, but sustained only trifling damage. A man believed to be J. R. Daniel of Los Angeles, was overcome by heat and drowned while bathing his face in the raceway to the Norris sawmill at Bloomfield, N. J., to-lay.
