Madrid, Jan. 17tk. —Reports trom Al- giers advise the seizure of the German Legation a: Tangiers by the Moroccan auchorities on Thursday. London, Jan. 17th.—An Exchange [el- egraph Company’s despatch from Tient- sin, quotes reports from Tokin that an agreement has been reached between the United States and Japan, under which Japan will protect tne Tran:-Siberia rail- way. . Paris, Jan. 17th,—Amn ofticial commu- nication has been issued stating that the Supremeg Council approves the recom- mendations to receive the population of the interior of Ruesia by giving them medicine, agricultural ~machinery and other commodities which are badly need- . ed. This partial liftingof the blockade is described in the official communica- tions as an exchange of goods on the ba- sts of reciprocity between the Russian’ people and the Allied and neutral roun- tries, but through cooverative societies. These arrangements, it is asserted, im- ply no chang in the poliey of the Allied Governments towards the Soviet Govern- ments. Geneva, Jan. 17th.—A message from Turin says that the Austrian warships, which under the Peace Treaty, were handed over to the Allies, have under- gone a second Seapa Flow on a small scale. The Allied Naval Commis- siop at Cat*aro confirms the first re- ports that the Austrian fleet was seriously disabled, the principal parts of their machinery having beep remov- ed or destroyed. This renders them incavable of navigation, only their hulls being in good cordition. The repairs, it is expected, will entail several months’ work. The fleet comprises one battle:hip, three iarge eruisers, four torpzdo-eruisers. twelve torpedo-boats and several small craft. The Austrians, it is declared, ac knowledge the damage, but blame the Czecho-Slovaks and Jugo-Slavs. The ships wiil, eventualiy, be towed (o Toulon or Marseilles, for repairs. Paris, January 16th.—The League of Nations held its first meeting this morn- ing at the Foreign Office, the representa- tives oi Great Britain, France, Italy, Gicede, Deltiviin obaily walet. Sortusal and Brazil being present. M. Bourgcois was elected Chairman and Sir Erie Drum- mond was confirmed as General Sceretary. The first official act of the Council of the League was the appointment of a cony- mission to trace the frontiers of the ter- ritory in the Sarre Basin. In his address, M. Bourgeois. said: ‘‘The task of vre- siding at the inauguration of this great [lnternational Constitution should have fallen to President Wilson. We respeect the reasons for the delay in reaching a final decision by our friends at Washing- ton, but we hope the difficulties will scon be overcome and the representative of the great republic occupy the place await- ing him. The sixteenth of January 1920 is the dawn of the history and the begin- ning of a new world. The decisions reached today will be in the name of all the naticns adhering to the Covenant and will be the first decree of all the free na- tiens leaguing themselves together for the first time in the history of the world to substiiute right for might, The organ- ization of the .eague will, however, not be complete until an assembly of all the States meets’’. Lord Curzon addressing the meeting, said: '‘On behalf of the British Empire, I express the loyalty of the Government and the external do- minions of the British Crown to the spirit underlying the Covenant of the League. It is our intention hy everv means in our power to insure its practical efficiency, and it is our firm belief that throuch its instrumentality alone can we hope to in- sure that such miseries as the world has experienced in the pagt five years. shall not be repeated and that an era of inter- na‘ional relationship shalt dawn’’.
