ENTENTE CORDIALS.
NAVAL CO-OPERATION
\Sy Telegraph.—Press Association.— Oiiyrign* Paris, Monday. The Premier (M. Poincare), in referring in the Chamber of Deputies to the suggestion made in the. press to transform the entente cordials between Great Britain and I'ranee into an alliance, said that the entente, although not written on parchment, had the support of the majority of the people of both nations. Its strength lay in it? present form, and an alliance was unnecessary, and would be a mistake. The remarks of the Premier were received with cheers. The relations between Germany and France, r.l. Poincare adaed, were astisfactory. M. Delcasse (Minister for Marine), has issued an order for the concentration of the destroyers scattered in the Channel and on the Atlantic coast under one command in order to assume the protection of the French coast. It is presumed that the order is based upon an assumption that in, the event of war of an olTensive character these waters would be controlled by England, while the main French battle fleet would bo concentrated in the Mediterranean.
