GERMANY IN AFRICA.
A FRENCHMAN SPEAKS HIS MIND.
Paris, Feb. 6.
M. Jenouvrier, in the French Senate, opposing the Moroccan treaty, said that Germany wanted a great empire in Central Africa. The Belgian Congo perhaps was not for sale, but it would be easy to take it.
The statement was received with loud protests. M. Poincare explained that it was an impossible thing to say, and M. Ribot declared that a Frenchman must not talk like that.
