Note 750 — Chapter XIII

Bülow to Radolin, June 12, 1905, G.P., XX, 431 ff., No. 6706. The accusation that Algerians were helping the pretender was made by a German army officer who in June returned from the Algerian border. Governor Jonnart of Algeria denied it and asserted that the contraband came, not from Algeria but from the Riff. Although Jonnart’s statement was undoubtedly correct, yet the report came in so handily that the German government used it as a weapon of intimidation against France (ibid., Nos. 6724, 6746; L.j., 1901-5, Nos. 275 f., 281, 283 f.).
