SAN JUAN, P. R, July 31 ne Taro’s revol that] rer’s gun, found yesterday morn | Following are the points In the Morocean mix-up, which may lead to war between Great Britain, Germany, France, Spatm, and perba: other European nations. The gist of the dispute is that it is a batile of the commercial interests of the four nations named. Spain owns a narrow fringe of territory along the Moroccan coast France, nominally, is mistress of all territory east and south of Mo- roceo. The keenest rivalry exists in extending their respective “spheres of influence.” 1903—France loaned the sultan of Morocco 7,500,000 francs 1904—French government arranged for French syndicate to make a further big loan to Morocco. France and Spain signed an agreement not to enlarge their “spheres of influence.” 1905—-The sultan of Morocco rejected the French demand for per mission to establish more military posts, and that French officers be placed in command of the sultan's troops. 1905—Germany made @ demand that the “open door” be main tained in Morocco, extended her influence, and offered a big loan to the sultan, which was resented by France and Spain. An acute crisis followed, which was settled by the calling of the powers in conference at the Algeicras convention. At that meeting Emperor William tn- sisted on the German position, having meautime strung @ great army along the Rhine on the French frontier. The kaiser forced the retire- ment of M. Delcasse, the French foreign minister, and an agreement was finally signed. 1911—Both France and Spain have extended their military lines, despite the opposition of the Moors. Germany then sent two gunboats to Agadir to “protect German interests.” France immediately resented this, and the British. government declared that Germany will in no case be allowed to occupy Moroccan territory.

It is known to its 6,500,000 inhabitants by its Arabic name, Moghrebel-Aksa, “The Extreme West.” a RRR KAARRARHKRAKRAAKRAR AHA WHAT CONGRESS HAS DONE WASHINGTON, July 31—The congressional timetable for the session up to date follows: House met 68 days.
