The Franco-Spanish negotiations with the delegates of Abd-el-Krim to end

the war in Morocco have failed. The delegates refused all the conditions, including the demand that the French and Spanish prisoners should be returned. The armistice came to an end at midnight on Thursday, May 6th. The Paris correspondent of the British Gazette says that the delegates took with them a medical mission to tend the prisoners. We trust that other medical missions will be allowed to follow.
