D. N.

Berlin, 28th September. lt is admitted in Government circles in London, Paris, and Madrid that negotiations regarding the division of Morocco have taken place, but it is denied that there has been any reouts as yet. The Morning Post calls for the recognition of a French protectorate over Morocco, the abolition of the international con. trol in Egypt, and further, the negotiation of new agreements regarding Siam and Newfound land.--(), Logi,
