WASHINGTON, April 6-fJetmany has outlined to the Cnlted States In clear and emphatic terms the position claimed by tne Berlin government In Morocco. I'pon the receipt of instructions this morning irom lieriin, the (Jermnn ambassador called nt the War department upon Secre tary l;irt, whom the president before leav ing designated as the cabinet officer with whom the amlmxsadors should confer, and In the name of the flerman emperor left with the secretary a brief memorandum setting forth the Moroecoan policy which Irfrniany has nil along pursued and from which It does not propose to be swerved. In substance the memorandum, which was couched In the most explicit language, an nounces that Germany stands for the "open door-' In Morocco, no less firmly than In tho far east, for the preservation of the Moroecoan status quo and for the safeguarding and protection of the com mercial ai.J trade Interests In Morocco, not only of Oerm iny, but of all the trad ing nations of the world. Forwarded to President. Aflet presemlng the memorandum the secretary und the ambassador tiad a brief conversation on the subject of Morocco, Baron Sternberg calling attention to the commercial Importance of that country to the trading nations and emphasizing the International Importance, in Germany's opinion, of the preservation of the "open door." The secretary thanked the am bassador for his explicit statement of the German policy and promptly forwarded the memorandum to President Roosevelt. Regarding the emperor's visit to Tangier, although It was In the line of his cruise In the Mediterranean, the object of his address was, It can be stated on authority, to Impress the Moroccoans with the serious ness of Germany's desire that the status quo. should he maintained nnd that the principle of "the open door" laid down by Secretary Hay with reference to China should be strictly adhered to In Morocco. In diplomatic circles the significance of Germany's frank avowal at Waahlngtnn of its views about Morocco is not under estimated and the Incident has attracted all the more attention because of its oc currence on the day on which the Wash ington government officially disclosed the Initial role played by Kmperor William In the exchanges of the powers last year regarding Chinese neutrality In the far eastern war. Some diplomats believe the object of the Gorman representations at this time la to evoke from Washington a similar avowal of adherence to the "open door" policy in Morocco. Although Secretary Taft was not so Informed, nor does Ms memorandum indi cate It. It Is believed here that a similar statement of Germany's views may have been addressed also to St. Petersburg and Madrid. No official statement of the German po sition is obtainable at the German embassy here In view of the fact that President Roosevelt has scarcely had time to con sider the memorandum. First to Restrict Fighting .one. That It was upon the suggestion of Km peror William that Preaident Roosevelt un dertook to arrange certain actions on the part of the neutral powers for the purpose of Inducing the belligerents in the far eastern war to respect tho neutrality of China, is for the tirst time officially dis closed in the advance sheets of foreign re lations, made public at the State depart ment toduy. It hat been hinted for a long time that the German emperor was the In itiatory force In these important cx hanges, but It has until now been impos sible to obtain any official confirmation of the fact. With the correspondence with Germany is Included a phrase of a cable gram addrcsstd by Secretary Hay to Mr. Tower at Berlin on February 8, after Ger many's acceptance of tho Invention of Sec retary Hay had been received, directing the ambassador "to convey to the emperor the president's profound appreciat.on of his generous Initiative and powerful co operation lit the mattur of Chinese neutial lly." Thf official phrase of Mr. Tower's reply, dated February 17, reads: Mr. Tower reports that he conveyetl to the emperor the profound appreciation of the president of his Initiative und co-operation In the matter of Chinese neutrality and that the emperor was cxceeuingly gratified and expressed most friendly sen timents toward the president. U Is significant that in the acknowledg ment of the acceptances by the other pow ers of the program suggested by Secretary Hay In his note of February S only in the case of Germany did the president send a personal message of appreciation to the sovereign. Jt Is now possible to stale that the reason Germany's initiative was kept secret was because of the German emperor's belief that the suggestion about Chinese neutral ity would be the more lertHin of success if emanating from Washington, particularly In view of Secretary Hay's previous activi ties in the same direction after the B ixer troubles of 1900. Accordingly his sugges tion was conveyed to the president through Speck von Sternberg, the German ambas sador; Secretary Hay returned at once 1 from the south and after a conference with the president and the German ambassador undertook the far-reaching dlsplomatic move to whli It is due the fact that China's neutrality ha thus far been fur the most part respected by Rursia and Japan. Attitude of Other rotter. At the prevent moment the further dis closures in the new volume of foreign re lations regarding the attitude of the sev eral powers toward the Hay proposal of last I'Vhruary ore significant. It is shown that Lord I.ansdowne, before Indicating Greut Britain's acceptance, de sired to know whether Manchuria was In cluded within the phrase "neutrality of China." He was answered in general terms that It was the desire of the Wash ington government to secure the "small est area of hostilities and the largest pos sible area of neutrality compatible Willi the military necessities of the belliger ents." Frafice, through M. Delcasse. according to Ambassador Porter s report, while re ceiving the proposal in the best spirit, showed a "little anxiety" to know the exact significance of the phrase "adminis trative entity." This phrase. It can be stated, was not Included In Emperor Wil liam's suggestion, which concerned the general question of Chinese neutrality, but was the creation of Secretary Hay. Jater France signified her full acceptance. Italy preferred to await the views of the cabinets at Berlin, Paris and Ixuidon, before actively itrtlclpatlng In the plan, and Austria Hungary was equally reticent. Ambassador Htoyer says of Ills Interview with Count Goluchowskl on the subject, that the foreign minister "was quite cool and rather pessimistic so far as any effort could be anticipated." 1 lljisl IS IB w IrV'iaTtF.f'r I k.s.i..- . m f in 1 Flint' jfcvr Green Trading Stamps mi I qpHE S. & H. Green Trading ii Stamp embodies the most t attractive principles of every form of trade inducement known. Its chief advantages are effectiveness, i simplicity and econ omy. It is in no sense a form of mer chandise to be kept by merchants on call. The S. & H.Green Trading Stamp is in tended only for the use of those mer chants who desire to offer their customers an incentive to pay cash or to buy goods from them. H IkftfVVMAt ? The Sperrv & 9 Hutchinson Company exhausts I its resources and exerts its inge- 0 1 nuity to make its stamps desir ? able. There are few towns of o g importance in the United States in ? which "S. & H. Green Trading WE CONFORM TO THE LAW The giving of "S. A H." Green Trading Stamps has been sanctioned by the legis lature and approved by the governor. These stamps have a recognized value and the public knows It. The recent act of the legislature requires that a cash valuation be printed on the face of trading stamps. We have done this for some time past. The courts In all Instances have con demned and decided unconstitutional legis lative attempts to prohibit or Interfere with tho use of trading stumps. In a re cent decision Justice Nash of the supreme court of the state of New York, on March 6. 1905, goes even further and decides that the act of the legislature requiring the printing of a cash valuation on the face of a stamp Is unconstitutional. He says In conclusion, after citing the Dycker and Uillson and other cases "It I a settled law that it Is not In the power of the legislature to suppress the issuing of the sale of trading stamps. The courts hold that the laws laid down In cases quoted furnlshe a rule so plain that there can be no reason for discussion. In passing on coupons having a redemption value In cash printed on their face the court holds that this cannot benefit either the consumer or the dealer." Owing to our constantly Increasing busi ness here, we have found it necessary to place exceptionally large orders with our factories east this spring. There goods are due at a very early date, when w will have the largest and most complete stock of premiums for you to select from ever displayed. Stamps" is not now a household word. Those having any doubt as to the popularity of our stamps will readily be convinced by a lit tle fair investigation. The 2uaic m merchants who are prejudiced against them either have never used "S. & H." Green Trading Stamps or have not handled the system to the best advantage. Upon one point we desire to be em phatic. There is ab solutely nothing ir regular about Green Trading Stamps, any more than there is about a cash discount, cut prices, free delivery or any other plan adopted by industrious merchants to advertise and stimulate their business and to insure the prompt payment of debts.
