ANGRY ST ENGLAND
German Papers Accuse Her of
Stirring Up Trouble.
MILD TOME TOWARD FRANCE
Alany Concessions to Be Granted the
Southern Neighbor on Account
of 'Tension Between Lon
don and Berlin.
BERLIN, June 26. (C:4o P. M.) The
second interview of M. BIhourd, the
French Ambassador, with Chancellor von
Bulow, was devoted to a detailed discus
Dion of the French note, but the Foreign
Office abstains from giving any informa
tion regarding the results reached. It is
Ecmi-ofilclally stated that the German an
swer has not yet been drawn up, hence
the government and press resent the as
sertion in the London newspapers that
the German government refuses to take
Into consideration every point raised by
Premier Rouvier, and throughout the
German pre3 a growing impatience is
manifested at what Is regarded as a
British attempt to embroil Germany and
France.
It is noted with satisfaction that some
of the French statesmen begin to inter
pret Great Britain's interest ln the
Franco-Gorman difficulty In the same
way. The newspapers quote approvingly
the words of General de Galllft, the ex
"Var Minister of France, that Great
Britain alone wants war between France
and Germany, for it would be to her
own advantage and at France's expense.
Similar views are expressed in the Ger
man press, the writers arguing that Great
Britain, having got rid of Russia for a
generation through the war In the Far
East, is deliberately working to fan the
flames of the old hate between France
and Germany and cause another war,
which must weaken her only formidable
rivals In Western European politics.
Hence the press discussions of the Mo
roccan question are giving more and more
importance to the role which is being
played in the present controversy.
It is noted that relations between Ger
many and Great Britain never were worse
than at this moment. Hints 'dropped In
official circles Indicate that chagrin was
felt at the Berlin court at the fact that
King Edward sent no more Important
representative to the Crown Prince's
wedding than the young Prince Arthur
of Connaught. while it is plainly inti
mated that the failure of Emperor Will
lam io send any representative at all to
tho wedding of Princess Margaret of
Connaught was Intended to give expres
sion to his resentment at this slight.
In view of this tension between Berlin
and London, It 'is believed that Germany
will make many concessions in order to
reach an understanding with France.
Germany's Xoto Has Arrived.
PARIS, June 27. A strong Impression
prevails that Germany's reply to the
French note regarding Morocco reached
Paris late last night, and that it will be
presented In the course of an interview
between Prince von Radolln, the German
Ambassador, and Premier Rouvier, today.
The officials neither confirmed nor de
nledMhc report that the reply had been
received, maintaining the strictest reserve.
Among tho diplomats gathered at a re
ception given at the British Embassy
here, the opinion prevailed that the reply
-was in the hands of the French officials,
and the view was taken that the situation
had undergone appreciable improvement.
Although It was considered that the
German response would not solve all dif
ficulties, yet it was expected that the
ground would be cleared for the reaching
of a doflnlte understanding.
ROUVIER S NOTE IS VERY PIAIX
Germany Alono Falls to Be Con
vinced by It.
PARIS, June 26. Premier Rouvior'o note
has convinced everybody of the correct
and legltimato policy of France in Mo
rocco, excepting Germany, and today the
situation is in an entirely different state
from that of last week. Premier Kou
vler's note clearly established the stand
point of France in one essential respect,
that the proposal to an International con
ference obliges the French government
to make It known that It has certain ar
rangements with other powers regarding
Morocco which cannot submit .to a re
vision by conference. These do not con
cern any other government, and must be
regarded as final and Irrevocable.
The Anglo-French entente and the
Franco-Spanish convention loft France to
a groat extent a free hand in regard to
her Morocco policy, and In this matter
and not beyond it the French govern
ment can nogotlato with Gormany.
Most of those who arc in a position to
know do not believe that there will be
war between Germany and France, yet
seem to think the outlook for the present
very unsettled.
Since the Kaiser's visit to Tangier the
equilibrium of Europe has been upset,
and there is no prospect that the balance
cf power will be speedily restored. In
this situation the idea no doubt suggests
Itself to friends of England and France
that their respective positions In the pres
ence of a common peril might be discussed
with mutual advantage, as the present
situation might lead to unexpected devel
opments, and It would be wise to be pre
pared and not be taken by surprise. So
far all that has taken place has been of
euch a nature as to open the people's eyes
of France and England to the necessity
of joint preparations for an emergency.
GERMANY'S POSITION KNOWN
Premier Rouvier Supposed to Have
Licarned From Von Bulow.
PARIS. June 26. 5:45 P. M.) Although
Germany's formal reply te the French
rote has not yet been received, there la
reason te believe that the Interview be
tivcn Chancellor von Bulow and M. BI
hourd, the French Ambassador to Ger
many, resulted In quite fully foreshadow
ing Germany's intentions. The results of
the interview are now in the possession
of Premier Rouvier and he Is not likely
to make them known before the meeting
of the Council of Ministers tomorrow,
when the status of tho negotiations will
be fully gone over
However, a definite determination either
favorable or unfavorable will not be long
deferred. Several proposals are under
consideration with a view to terminating
the crisis, but until one of these is defi
nitely chosen, the officials will be unable
to predict its chances of success.
M. Rouvier conferred at noon with M.
Leon Bourgeois and Jules Cam bo n. the
French Ambassador to Spain. M. Bour
geois has been under consideration for a
special mission to Berlin. It is under
stood that M. Rouvier will receive Prince
Radalin. German Ambassador to France,
after the meeting of the Council of Min
isters tomorrow.
Public tension over the controversy is
much relieved, the Bourse sharing In the
Improvement.

Bad Symptoms, and Secretary
of State Is Expected to Be
Out in a Few Days.
NEWBURY. N. H.. June X The con
dition of Secretary of State John Hay.
who is confined to his bed at his Sum
mer home near Lake Sttnapee. by aa at
tack of uremia, was regarded as favor
able tonight by hU physicians. After
a few days of rest it is expected the
Secretary will be able to leave bis room.
Dr. Charles L. Scudder, of the Massa
chusetts General Hot-pltal, Boston, who
came here with Dr. Fred T. Murphy, of
Bocton, Sunday night on a special train
in response to a message from the family,
remained In the village tonight, but Dr.
Murphy returned home.
Dr. J. T. Cain, of Newport, N. H.. who
was called to the Hay home before the
arrival of the Boston physicians, is with
Dr. Scoddcr. Both doctors are of the
opinion that Mr. Hay will have no diffi
culty In overcoming the effects of the
present attacks. An operation was con
sidered at one time by Dr. Cain, but
the three physicians, after a careful ex
amination and a consultation, decided
it would not be necessary The attack
was due to a chill caught on the Journey
from Washington, and is similar to one
tbat Mr. Hay had four years ago.
The Secretary passed a comfortable af
ternoon and cvonlsg. and his family con
sidered that there is no need of further
anxiety. Secretary Hay arrived at his
Summer home Saturday night.
Secretary Hay began to be In pain
early yesterday. Remedies whioh have
given relief on previous occasions were
applied, but failed to help him. and Dr.
Cain was called from Newport. He
found that in changing from the cli
mate of Washington to the cooler tem
perature of tho Lake Sunapee region
the Secretary had taken a severe cold,
and that organs weakened by previous
attacks had been variously affected.
Upon learning this, Mrs. Hay desired
tbat specialists be summoned at once,
and as soon as possible Drs. Scudder
and Murphy were on the way hare by
special train from Boston.
The Boston & Maine Railroad cleared
its tracks from Boston to Concord. N.
IL, and the special made fast time be
tween those two cities. The train then
proceeded to Newbury by the Concord
&. Claremont branch. A launch was in
waiting to convey the surgeons across
Lake Sunapee. and the doctors reached
the bedside of the secretary at about
midnight. A quick but complete ex
amination of the patient was made, and
it was seen that his condition, while
exceedingly painful, was not, for tho
time, at least, serious.
Under treatment the patient soon
showed improvement, and the necessity
of an operation, which had been dis
cussed, was averted. During the lat
ter part of the night Secretary Hay
grew steadily better, and by morning
had regained the strength which bad
been exhausted by hours of Incessant
pain. On account of the organs af
fected by the cold, however, tho physi
cians ruled- that the Secretary remain
la bed for a day or.two. Dr. Scudder
then left for home, placing Dr. Mur
phy in charge, "with Dr. Cain-assisting;
Dr. Cain said today that the mem
bers of the Hay family were greatly
alarmed because of the fact that the
usual remedies railed to give relief.
"I understand.- said Dr. Cain- that

Afrssaais sick; some disease peculiar
to her sex is last deTeIopiiir- ixher sys
tem. She goes to her family p&ysfeia.
and tslls him & story, "but sot the wljol:
itcry.
She holds, soma thing- hack, loses her
bead, becosaes agit-ied. forgets -what,
she wants to say, and finally caaceala,
what she ought to have told, and tho'
completely mystifies the doctor-.
Is it any wonder, therefore, that th.
doctors fail to euro the disease ? Still,
we cannot b!am- the -w;;yL for it ten
very embarrassing- to detail seme of tha
symptoms of her- suffering-, eTea. to hr
family physician.
It was for this reason that years ao
Mrs. Finkham, at Lynn. Mass., de
termined to sten in and help her-sex.
Haviiuj had considerable experience is.
treating female ills, with her Vegetable
Compound, she encouraged the wcciea.
of America to write to her for advice ia
regard to their complaints, aad heists' a
woman, it was easy for her ailing- sis
ters to pour into her ears every detail
of their suffering.
In this way she was able to do for
them what the physicians ware unable
to do, simply because she had the
proper information to work upon, and
from the little group of -women, who
sought her advice years ago a great,
army of her fellow-beings are to-dayt
constantly applymg for advice and re
lief, and the 'fact that many thou
sands of them have been, cored by
following the advice of Hrsx Pinkhara.
during the last year is Indicative of the
grand results which are produced by
her uneqaaled experience and training.
No physician in. the -world has had.
such a training, or ha such, aa amount
of information, at hand to assist in the
treatment of all kinds of female ills,
from the simplest local irritation, to
the most complicated -womb diseases.
This, therefore, is the reason, -why
Mrs. Pinkhsm. in her laboratory at
Lynn, Xasa., is able to do more for the
ailing -women of America, thaa. the
family physician. Aay woman, there
fore, is responsible for her own suffer
ing -who will not take the trouble to
vmte to Mrs. Finkham for advice.
The testimonials which we are con
stantly publishing from grateful wo
men establish beyond s doubt the
power of LydiaE. Piiilcham's: Vegetable
Compomnd'to conquer female diseases.
