~ FRENCH IN A PLIGHT, WARN THE GERMANS Cabinet Crisis Will Not Affect Their Stand on Moroccan Question. PARTS, March 8—The Government finds itself without a Minietry at the culminating stage of the Moroccan Con- ference at Algeciras. A semi-officlal statement on the subject says: he Ministerial crisis does not affect French policy at the Conference.” This # designed chiefly to warn Ger- many not to take advantage of the situation. The fact is that the Minis- terial hiatus confuses matters and threatens the agreement which other- wise might have been arrived ut to- day. ‘The vote in the Chamber of Deputies Jast night, resulting In the defeat of the Government and the resignation of the Cabinet, also requires that the Government temporize with the church manifestants, who are becoming in- demonstrative, particularly the peasants. President Fallieres this morning be- an a series of consultations relative to the formation of a new ministry. He first conferred lengthily with M. Dubost. President of the Senate, and later recetved M. Doumer, President of the Chamber of Deputies. No announcement of the President's course of action has been made, but the names most mentioned are those of MM.Leon Bourgeois, the former Premier’ Alexander Miller, and tho former Min- ister of Commerce; Raymond Perncaire, former Minister of Public Works, and Senator Clemenceau. ‘There is some talk also of M. Delcasee, the former Foreign Minlater, who {8 sup- ported by the Anglo-French enthusiasts, but his appointment is Impossible owing to German hostility to him. ‘M.

Such was the ultimatum of the Union Ferry Company, which was served to- day upon the Mayor and the Smking Fund Commission through President Falrehild of that company. It sald among other things that the company might cease to operate all those lines by May 1 next. The destre is that the cauy should at once geek legislation to permit it to acquire the ferries by pur- chase. Incidentally tt leaked out that former Comptroller Grout {s counsel for the company.
