RENEWED STRAIN
BETWEEN FRANCE,
GERMANY WORR ES
Believed -Present i Conditions
Due to Italy's Grab of Tripo
li Kaiser Now Has Grouch,
and Europe Waits. . '
(United ; Preaa. Leaead Wire.)
London, Oot 7. Uneasiness over th
Moroccan situation . re-awakened : to
night with tha unexpected news that
France and Germany wero again in
disagreement over the terms of settle
ment. The stock market waa depressed
all dajK as a result of the 'unfavorable
reports from Paris and Berlin and it
10 p. m., th chief officials of the
Ministry of Foreign , Affairs were still
In consultation' relative to the troubled
auropean ouuook. 3 r '
V- The renewed etcain - between ' Franco
anJ Germany is undoubtedly tho iln
direct outcome of the Italian grab of
Tripoli. 'Though the fact has hitherto
freeh" kept Jiretty quiet; , It lis cecUln
that UermaDT waa neaotlatlna- with
Turkey, just before the Italian declara
tion of war, for. the purchass of Tripoli.
Supposing that he was aura to obtain
vt mo i.uiontuia ui long uesirea
. foothold In North Africa by this tneanc
the kaiser waa less interested than he
would otherwise have been . in urging
excesaive oemanas upon .the French.
Italy's sudden action In taking the
aggressive against Turkey Is said on
good authority to have , been due to
diHoovery that the Turko-Qerma nego
nations were in progress.
Cheated, ao fas as Tripoli waa con
cerncd, by the Italian move, it is
understood the Berlin foreign of flee is
again assuming an overbearing tone In
its 'correspondence with Foreign Minis
ter im (selves or France. .
Tha French think Germany la getting
tso much. Germany believe it la not
getting what it is entitled to. .
At any rate, Franco-German relatione
re again badly atralned and English
diplomacy, alwara extremely tearful of
a continental war In which . Ita own
Interests . may suffer, . is worrying
gravegr aa to wnat may result. i
reports were untrue,, that. Manuel waa
still at Richmond and that he had no
Idea of going to Portugal.
Tonight, however, it leaked out, on
tha highest eout authority that for two
days ManuefVxad neither been seen -t
Richmond nty , anywhere n .England.
The Richmond .residence Is- heavily
guarded by police and visitors'' are. not
even permitted to linger 'in. the Vi
cinity. ' , i - .'
1 -glnce he' waa last - seen here, th ex
king has had ; time to cross th .Portu
guese frontier, and If-h did ao. It is
considered mora than' likely that he took
part in today's flghtingr, which ended
in ao disastrous a defeat for his fol
lowers. ' ' ' ' .'....'''...;
Owing to the strictness of the Portu
guese censorship, -only tha most meger
details of tha fighting - have filtered
through to the Spanish cities along tho
frontier.: There seems not to have been'
a single bigbattle, but a series of fierce
skirmishes, resulting la victory for the
Republicans all along the line. The
Royalists ere reported to have retreated
Into the mountainous districts near the
Spanish frontier, where they may keep
up a guerrilla campaign for sometime.
How great tha losa of Ufa thus far Is
not known, but the Spanish . reports
are that the- engagements, .were Y very
determined and that many on both, sides
were killed. , Twenty Royalists are said
to have been left . dead near Oporto
alone. , ' '
